A good reason to retire in HCM.
Already set up a retirement spot in Johor near Peter Lim Vantage medical hub. May set up another retirement spot in HCM.
Medical cost in Singapore is a killer.
I wonder is it worthwhile to do medical and dental checkup in HCM?

Whole hospital is air-conditioned and its clean . I was operated by one of the rare few Neurosurgeon in Vietnam (heard there's a only a few neurosurgeon) , stayed in single room for 10 days before i was discharged (i requested for it) and was transported back to Singapore on a wheelchair + stretcher. My spinal surgery was complicated and it lasted for around 8 hours. Total cost was around US$10k. Still relatively much cheaper than Singapore. My follow-up Specialist neurosurgeon in Singapore told me that it could have cost me around S$100k for the same procedure and service in Singapore.
