Nice reply ----!
Singapore seems the quickest, and a Singaporean passport goes a long way I reckon - plenty of countries will issue landing visas I'm sure. Not sure about living there - high cost of living, and from what I hear it's a rather sterile place. However the current company I'm working for is Singapore-based, so I might work that angle.
I haven't spent enough time in Malaysia to be sure it would be the place I could settle in. I liked Penang and Lankawi, but you can't judge a country from a 7 day visit. I've heard of the 'Malaysia My Second Home' deal - I'll look further into that. I tried for the last year to find work in Malaysia, and failed. My new job will leave me considerably upskilled in a year or two from now, able to sell myself better to the next wage slave master. I also need to spend more time in Malaysia, and get a real feel for it.
PRC passport/citizenship - no thanks!
A Hong Kong passport would be awesome, see loads of non-Asians with them when I pass through HKIA. Perhaps they were born there?
South Korea - no thank you!
Taiwan - I remember someone on this board got his, and gave up his original passport.
Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Burma, Laos, Vietnam - wonder what the deal on them is..? Still going through their growing pains, not sure I'd want to settle in one of those countries..
Australia - my SA friend moved there and got her Aussie citizenship/permanent residency after a few years. But she's loaded to the gills (dad passed away and left her millions, US$ millions). She bought a couple of properties on the Gold Coast and travels half the year - lucky/lazy gal.
I'd like to hold onto my SA passport. Applying for a visa for cruddy ol' SA is quite a mission these days, believe it or not.
