Back in 1967 when I started elementary out teacher talks to us in English. It is fair to say it is our first language in school. When I graduated from college in 1980 all my job interviews were in English as well. English is also the Philippine’s 1st language in business . We use to be the third largest English speakers in the world.
Philippines is the best for enjoying the beaches in 7k plus islands... hospitality and very friendly peoples.❤❤❤
Only 14 million English speakers in the Philippines? No way.. much more than that. Almost everyone you will encounter can communicate in English to some degree.
You are wrong I’m am Filipino living in Canada, more than 90% Filipino speak English.
@@merlynjosey8711baka ibig nya sabihin fluent in english...
@@merlynjosey8711yung 90% mo siguro nakakaintindi at kasama na jan un fluent at not fluent.....
@@ericputian975 yes, they still can speak even broken English.
@@merlynjosey8711 Tagala?
had a cruise in barbados. bought a very small coconut for US $6. went to the philippines. bought a huge coconut (triple the size) at 35 cents.
Now that sounds like a thorough, validated research, doesn’t it?
@@EGO0808it is one of many examples of how expensive Barbados is. Even Badians complains how expensive their tiny country is. It is only for the very well off retirees.
@@arnieljovero1008Barbados is a tiny island almost every is imported if you can afford the cost of living then it’s perfect this video is about English speaking countries.
@@awadiaby1673 I know it is about the English but i am responding to the guy who made the comment which is not about the English language. See his comment. Furthermore for it’s miniscule size i think i will catch an island fever quickly. It is for short term stay for me.
Ha ha ha & Philippines is expert in making "buko pie ' Filipino delicacy made of coconut meat ,for your information ,the coastal regions are surrounded by coconut trees
I retired to the Philippines and it's also important you have access to malls, banks and the immigration office. The Philippines is the only place in Asai that has a VA Hospital for veterans and a Social security office all in Manila.
VA?
@@LifeOdysseyMotivation Veterans Affairs
Glad to hear retirement in the Philippines works well as I plan to do the same. Yes, VA is in Manila. Don’t forget the presence of US military bases in the 60’s up to the 80’s. Your dollar goes a long way considering inflation and interest rates are on the rise. There’s no better than quality of living. Philippines top this so far. Wishing you all the best on your retirement from Redondo Beach CA USA.
@@LifeOdysseyMotivationVeterans Administration
@@robertdouglas3174 ??? the other guy above said "Veterans Affairs" and now you are saying veterans administration
85% Filipinos speak English compared to the countries you've mention.. been around the world as seafarers base on my experience. Filipinos spread around the world due to our standard of education and English skill..
Philippines 🇵🇭. I agree 👍 on a high rank. I traveled to and from there for 25+ years. ✈
You must be a sad white guy couldn't stay put in his own country.
Philippines is the best option among the rest, very inexpensive you can visit 7ooo plus islands and see the beauty of the whole country. People are all welcoming, kind , helpful. A lot of things to do in the Phil. For everyone. It’s 90 % speaks English language.
I add my total endorsement to this post as it is totally correct.
I earn 1k usd a month as single guy in manila. But it's not enough. Maybe in the province with simple life 1k usd can be squeezed to live comfortably.
It's a rubbish country.
Cyprus is in the EU.
If you have limited retirement money don’t live in Metropolitan Manila but venture into provinces.
90% English speaking people in the Philippines, that’s a little exaggeration.
I want to make a bit of correction of facts regarding philippines....you said 14 million filipinos can speak english and out of the total population, that accounts to only about 12%....actually, 47% of filipinos can speak fluent english with great diction and enunciation....but in totally, 95% can actually speak it even in a broken non-fluent way you can still somehow understand it...and to those who cant almost totally cant speak speak it have at least an inkling of what you're saying. This is because english is the medium of instruction in this country more than filipino or tagalog language.
and Filipinos love to watch English language movies from US, UK and others. Filipinos are culturally comfortable with western cultures as well.
From kindergarten to university.... We speak English inside the classroom.
So true, Philippines should number one ranked.😮
Yu ar korik! olmos all Pelepenos spek englesh!…..just kidding 😂. Not only do Filipinos speak English, we Filipinos have great sense of humor too! 😂
If you retire in the Philippines you better have a lot of patients because everything there is done slow .And if u like quiteness forget
about it because it’s very noisy
In my fictional world, Malaysia is one of the best country in the world in every area
No. 1 philippines...with natural beauty and speaking english people even children can speak english too.
No infrastructure, brownouts, kidnapping and violence. Poverty everywhere.
Atleast it's number 1 in Asia.
Children can speak English like, yes, no, yes, no...and then, run away.
What about india
@@solkalibri1376😂😂
Greetings from Redondo Beach CA USA 🇺🇸. Philippines should be ranked #1 because it is much safer to travel here than any other countries listed. Filipinos are known for their hospitality specially in the provinces. Visit Makati, GBC, and Mall of Asia not to mention the beaches in La Union province. Mabuhay!
Rubbish. Cyprus is also very safe. I experience zero crime in 19 years.
Cyprus is definitely safer
Philippines is safe? Are you kidding? Maybe in presidential palace. It's a place where cops are kidnappers. So you have to pay them to not to become one in advance.
A typical kulang sa pansin Filipino. Always wants to be in the limelight.
the video also claimed 14 million Filipinos speak English. Only 14 million?
Yup, Philippines it is, the best to retire, near beach for tourist be it fishing as income, it's mountains & forest, as retiree, having farm as a hobby or just a small money income. Philippine soil is so fertile due to volcanic ash. Philippines is the only diverse country in asia, from religion, food be it "halal" or "pork lechon", variety of taste & dish you look for you shall find, various tradition, it is not controlled by any religous law and it is the most democratic asian country you ever find. People are authentic & really smile thru their heart, they are a community w/c is real helpfull & warm to anybody, and of course it does not mean it is also free from local scam & bad people, but majority of good filipino people would already sure warn you for that. Smile to them & sure they will retract & shower you w/ all the greetings & smile. Truly Philippines for me is the best & astonishingly unique country in the world 🧡🇮🇱❤️🇵🇭✊🤗🙏
Thank you, ❤️ from the beautiful 🇵🇭
Philippines is the best country to retire a lot of beauty spots to visit , beautiful beaches .
Thank you for including the Philippines in your list❤
If it weren't included you could have been butthurt. But 90% is a smelly joke of his asshole.
Philippines is the best of all
Love your own...
@@ManuboVlogtv-yg4rj You must love the Philippines also
Ring of Fire! Not strategic…
@@Idaleasofia24 Not all areas in the Philippines, like Palawan island 🏝️
This was very informative, thanks & blessings 🙏
Great video! Excited about the English-friendly options.
Good content with nice presentation. Thank you for sharing
We think Philippines is the best place to retire with, the economy is number 1 in Asia.Filipinos are the most hospitable, friendly and smiling people in the world.
Once you tour the tourist spots in the Philippines you don't want to leave this beautiful country. Love the Philippines.🇵🇭😁👍👏👏
where did you get no. 1 economy in Asia. study well bata??? china, Japan. gusto mo turuan kita?
ang sabe best english speaking country to retire, ung mura cost of living.. english speaking ba china, japan? or kahit singapore, di mura mga yan.. gusto mo matuto bata?@@juanchorells6163
Loved the insights on retirement planning in English-speaking countries! Makes deciding where to retire so much easier.
Helpful guide! Consider healthcare and cost of living too. Each country offers unique experiences. Thanks for sharing!
Very nice content , helpful and educative , thanks for sharing
Cheap does not mean it is better. It is all relative. With all considered, Malaysia should be best with regard to cost of living accommodation, transport, health care, weather, safety, not much natural disaster and best situated at the cross road for world and next to Singapore.
Very helpful to know about best English speaking countries for retirement planning
Thank you ❤
Thank you so much for this, especially for considering the Philippines.
Boracay in the Philippines has white sand beaches
Overrated 😂
Phil is the best specialy in the province
The Philippines I been living in Cebu Philippines for 10 year
I would sure love to go there
Ok so the thig none of these sites want to deal with that is kinda important to Rtirees.. How do you handle health care ???
You failed to mention that most of these locales are subject to hurricanes. In the Pacific, they are in the Ring of Fire.
right
Jamaica has a very high murder rate.
One thing I never see in these videos is healthcare. Both the standards and the costs. Something important, especially when retiring, as thats when you'll need it most!
Wow, some of these rankings were unexpected! I've lived in a couple of the states listed and have different opinions based on my experiences. Does anyone else feel the same?
Some topics not covered: How much required annual income? Insurance for healthcare? Requirements to purchase property? Median rent for apartments? How much for housekeeping services? Is there good public transportation? What facilities for people with physical challenges? A decent retirement requires more than nice beaches. What does $1000. a month cover?
The best Philippines..
Wow!kasali ang Philippined❤️😊
Of all the countries ,the Philippines is the most beautiful when it comes to nature,culture and peoples habit..I'm proud Filipino
In 2018 Philippines had 7 million plus international tourist visitors after pandimic declined into 2 million international torists.
Wow Philippines is 3rd Runk , proud Filipino
Overproud pre 😂
ok sana. edit mo lang un 'rank'
Considering retiring abroad for the language? This video's a gem. Any personal recommendations for English-speaking countries to live in or visit?
Hahaha, Barbados, Costa Rica are expensive country to live or retire, been there several times. Better the Philippines you have plenty to select at your own descrition.
By all comparison, and by all rankings, the Philippines is apparently the Best Best Best among all the rest that the article have mentioned... If your point of deliberation is anchored on the English language, the Philippines stand highly above all the rest. The Philippines 🇵🇭 has a population of more than 114 Million people as of 2021, and is projected to be about 150 million by 2050. That could placed the Philippines in the 11th or 12th ranking as the most populous country in the world 🌎. By that alone, the literary rate of the Philippines is 96.6% as of October 2023, making it one of the most literate countries in the world. In 2021, the Philippines literacy rate was 99.27%. Education in the Philippines is free for all Filipino people all the way to college, on a bachelor's degree. Advanced studies and graduate school have very minimal costs... English is widely used anywhere and everywhere even in small remote islands. Their kind of English is even much much better than most ordinary Americans do. Their English is grammar-based with correct spelling, proper punctuation, and easily comprehensible. Thus , they refrain from using colloquial words such as wanna, gonna, gotta, ain't, betcha, or y'all which are actually ungrammatical... Do I need to say more? This explains the fact that millions upon millions of high-quality and well-educated Filipino professionals, such as nurses, teachers, CPAs, engineers, seamen and maritime engineers, and other medical professionals, are in-demand all over the world. Noteworthy of mention is that 10-12% of the Filipinos are scattered all over the world in more than 250 countries as useful citizens of the community.. Such feat, where only few countries can ever lay claim to. The Filipino diaspora has made the Philippines 🇵🇭 more vibrant, more diverse, more liberally exposed , and more welcoming and accommodating thereby further concreting the worldwide Filipino traits of great hospitality, very hospitable and friendly. (TO be continued)
Philippines should be on the top #1 because you will live like King and Queen there. 😂😂😂😂😂
I lived in Asia for most of my adult life. When I was younger Thailand and the Philippines were by far the best places to visit.
But when I retired (early), I chose Malaysia. I was planning in starting a family - and it was clear it was a much better place for a family than Thailand or Philippines. That said, I do love traveling in the Philippines.
The other note is that Malaysia is CHEAPER that the Philippines - especially if you want something decent. In the Philippines, anything decent is expensive. For sure, you can live in either country on $500 and enjoy yourself.
Working in Malaysia for 3 years now. As expat. I disagree that it's CHEAPER.
Philippine the best
Yeah drink Milo everyday Malaysian 💀💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😜😜😜
@@JohannMarshall-pu2dw how is Malaysia? i'm planning to visit there
@@LifeOdysseyMotivation Malaysia is good. But it's not cheap compared to other asean countries I visited. Not to mention, ringgit depreciation.
Jamaica? WTF? Well I guess if you are used to the violence in the US.
Like with all nations, violence based on economics. Retirees will be fortunate enough to have the money necessary to shield them from most of the violence that occurs in developing nations
It's also homophobic AF there.
I agree wtf
😂
Oh please Jamaica 🇯🇲 is the best place to live
They forgot the Cayman Islands, which national language is English. As a matter of fact, The Cayman Islands were part of the British Empire. Furthermore, many expatriate British and North Americans have made the Cayman Islands their home.
It wasn't included because it is very costly..
Interesting video but it would be useful to have info on accommodation costs and crime rates.
Also needs info about healthcare and natural disasters.
The Philippines has a lower Crime Rate compared to Both Jamaica and Barbados.
@@ik1408 The Philippines has a lower Crime Rate compared to Both Jamaica and Barbados. and with Better Healthcare.
Natural Disasters?
Earthquakes, Typhoons and Volcanic Eruption are common. But people will get used to them.
California has Earthquakes.
Japan gets Typhoons.
Iceland has Volcanoes.
3 in 1.
@@leomarlonestrada5954 Earthquakes, typhoons, volcanic Eruption and tropical climate with high temperature and high humidity - to many cons. Poor people get used to these. But then again, the whole video is about where low-income Westerners can move to. The poor cannot be choosers.
@@ik1408 Well. Lots of RICH People Get used to these.
I mean Barbados and Jamaica?
What will you do in Barbados? The Island is TOO SMALL. It is bad for people with Claustrophobia. Barbados also gets earthquakes, landslips, and hurricanes. Also, not most people speak English. When I visited the Island, i noticed that people speak Bajan Creole more than English.
Jamaica. They don't speak good English there. When I went to Jamaica in 2017, I found a lot of scary street gangs everywhere.
Plus, they add the word "Man" after every sentence.
Like:
Gangster 1: "Hey Man! What you doin Man?"
Gangster 2: "I am eating Man."
I mean, Jesus on a Stick! They are Cannibals!
"But then again, the whole video is about where low-income Westerners can move to. The poor cannot be choosers."
FYI, There are lots of "High Income Westerners" in the Philippines. These folks choose to but properties mountainside and erect villas.
Go figure.
The title should have stated: Best English speaking countries to retire for Americans. As that is clearly the focus here. And as for low cost retirement in malaysia, that is no longer the case with the so called MM2H programme. The minimum requirement is a monthly income of US$ 8,000 per month.
The Philippines without a doubt is a good choice for English-speaking foreigners to retire to. Filipinos learned English from Kindergarten to college. Every textbook is written in English except the textbook for Tagalog language. It's nice to be considered 3rd best place but it could do better like being the 1st choice. Sadly, the cost of living in the Philippines could be much lower if the government isn't corrupt. In fact, the current President is called a USB (thumb drive) President by the locals. Even the international election observers issued a report stating the election was full of irregularities. If President Benigno S. Aquino III was replaced by an equally competent Filipino like Mar Roxas (who lost the election) in 2016, who could have continued the progress that Aquino started, today, the country would have a vibrant economy and low cost of living.
Correction : Aquino III was replaced by du30 and Philippines has improved tremendously .
MUCH CHEAPER IN PHILIPPINES THAN ANY NATIONS AND VERY RICH NATION.
I did know this yes.
Malaysia :
-English is the second language
-very good health care system
-good transport system
-beautiful beaches and rainforests
- Mount Kinabalu - highest mountain in SEA
-multi-cultural (many races : Malays, Chinese, Indians, numerous native tribes among others)
-food paradise
-relatively low cost of living
-strategic location (can easily travel to nearby countries such as Thailand, Singapore and so on)
Note : I read somewhere that the Malaysian government has agreed to review the terms of the MM2H programme.
Mt Kinabalu not the highest mountain in SEA...
@@bk1571 I stand corrected.
'It is the highest mountain in Malaysia/Borneo as well as the third-highest peak of an island on Earth' but not the highest mountain in SEA.
Malaysia should return Sabah to the Philippines.
Sorry for injecting this topic, but I hope most Malaysian should be aware of the Sabah issue. Before Malaysia even was declared a country made up by the British, they had rented Sabah. Respectfully Malaysia and the international community should acknowldge Sabah didn' happened to be part of Malaysia as it was only on lease agreement from the Sulu family in the Philippines. Sabah should be returned to the Philippine domain.

Jamaica is an extremely expensive country. You need at least US$1,700 per month assuming you're not paying rent or mortgage. This amount will only cover food, utilities, transportation and basic medicine assuming you have a non-contributory medical policy. There are price increases very often. The dollar fluctuates a lot. With this amount you can't go to fancy restaurants or buy fancy food. So which Jamaica are you referring to?
The Jamaica 🇯🇲 in the caribbean if you own your house fully paid for you can lived off 500 to 700 US dollars per month.
Philippines population 112 million, 60 to 70 million Filipino can speak English.
80% of Filipinos speak English. Filipino is two languages. First Tagalog second English.
@@user-bu4gz3dk7r In Philippines Tagalog & English are declared as official language. Same like India Hindi & English are declared as official language. English is global language opens to job opportunities everywhere.
True 👍🏻🌷♥️
MilaniRuthCarreon, you miss the point. Unfortunately crime is everywhere. But I have seen a report warning tourists to take particular care when visiting certain popular destinations due to the crime rate. A handful of these are the very countries recommended in this video. Any senior considering their options ought to be informed of the conditions in which they'll be placing themselves.
If the Retiree is a lover of Nature, Friendly, knows and understand the Filipino Culture, the Philippines Countryside is very interesting. This will cost LESS than $1000,-- a month. With the difference, one can travel to the other Cities/Islands at least once a month whenever one wishes. CAREGIVERS can be employed, part time or regular. The presence of millions of young educated/trained young population who respect the old Folks make this possible. AURAPHIL thanks for sharing.
Beautiful st Lucia
what a beautiful information... will take this into consideration... from now and in the coming years... for me i will prefer the PHILIPPINES... this country is famous worldover.
The Filipinos speak very good English. It is our second language. English, Science, Mathematics and other major subjects are taught in English.
❤❤❤The Philippines.

Philippines any day of the week
Correction. It’s not 14 million only Filipinos speaks english. It’s definitely 100 Millions from children to elders. The best place for retirement considering these factors:
1. Kind and Hospitable People
2. Stunning Beaches
3. 7641 islands
4. Beautiful Mountains
5. Cheap houses in provinces
6. Variety of fruits and vegies
7. Fresh Air
8. Amazing food
9. Lots of festivals & holidays
10. The only christian country in Asia…and christmas is celebrated in 100 days.
Well if yiu like adventure, fun, and noise then the PH is yours
Philipines has a population of 130 million people, majority of Filipinos speak english because english language is being taught in elementary school, many arevwell educated and literate people, economy is booming, Philippines is now being called the tiger economy, it is not a poor country it is one the rich Asian country because they have all the natural resources that leaders of Philippine should tap in they are rich in oil, gold, pearls, nickel, uranium, most of this minerals e were being exported to otgrvcoubtries.They have a lot of food to ve exported thats why many countries take advantages of their wealth.Philippines is the number 3 english speaking country in the world number 1 is USA and number 2 is Britain.
11million
Australia, new Zealand, Singapore have more and better English speakers than the Phillipines.
I'm a Native Filipino here and I think that the main reason as to why the Philippines is being recognized as an English-Speaking Country (even though not all filipinos can speak the language very fluently) is because the Philippines became an American Colony for such a long time after the Spaniard Colonization and that the Americans brought the English Language to the Country along with their culture, foods, holidays, festivals, clothing brands, car brands, etc. which means to say that the country is pretty much heavily influenced by Western American & European Spanish Cultures even until today that English is still one of the most widely -spoken languages of the Philippines along with Spanish (Chavacano) being the second national language of the Southern Part of the Country
The crime is high in the Philippines as well as the drug problem. There are places that you just dont go as to dangerous. Why isnt that mentioned any where
NO IDEA
St Lucia had a very bad experience how it rated I do t know. Beach maybe -10
I've got a lot of Jamaican friends that always tell me there's gangs there an you have to worry about being shot also they're definitely not happy there the horrible living conditions are ridiculous an people don't see this side unless it's too late
English is spoken in Filipino households. There is no doubt that Filipino can speak English well. Once you reached Philippines there is no turning back because there is more fun in the Philippines. People are friendly and you can choose to live in the countryside with more beautiful beaches or in the main cities. Come live in the Philippines.. You're money is worth it.
Its should be phils to be #1, if you 800usd here thats all in,gas for your car,net, rent and foods,if you secured your own modest house its the best, wevare 90 percent english speaking populace here,affordable needs etc, we have vast area or places to live with,westernized and educated
England
What other languages do Jamaicans speak other than English.
Here's the thing though:
I'd love to learn another language and stop being an ignoramus, monolingual American.
It's just nice to live somewhere where English is common so that I can pick up a new language through natural exposure without feeling alienated by a language barrier.
You can try France and learn French.
Anyone considering the advice in this would do well to investigate the crime in these countries.
I think it can't be more bad then the USA. Those guys have a tradition of shooting in schools.
Name a country that is crimeless🤔🤔🤔
I mean if you're talking from an American's perspective, it's kinda funny.
@@Yjn75it would be funny if he lives in the US, right?
Actually, Christopher is correct and you'll are wrong. Jamaica and Belize are top 10 countries in murder rate (looking at stats a few years ago), St. Lucia and Barbados are medium high in Murder rate and USA has one of the lowest murder rates (per 100,000 population). There's is a fairly high murder rate in a handful of US cities but overall the rate is low. This is why you don't trust anything the media tells you.
Have you got anything NOT tropical?
English is the official language of jamaica as well
Are they girls there laid back?

Cyprus has got very expensive housing is getting too expensive think you should check your information
In Belize I got ripped off in an ATM scam. I went to the police to lodge a complaint on the advice of my bank. The police wanted to arrest me!
I wouldn't go near Cypress - it is in the middle of a extremely volatile area. I wouldn't live in Malaysia (I've been there twice on visits) because it has over a 60% Muslim population - and - I'm not a Muslim. Ireland is much too cold. The Philippines, Jamaica and Barbados look like good choices.
Good to know you won't be imposing yourself on us in Ireland. 🇮🇪
@@feargal2433 I happen to be half Irish. My ancestors bailed out - centuries ago. It was much too cold for them back then as well.
After kiving in Malaysia for more than 5 years I can say that there is nothing Islamic about living in Malaysia for any foreigner.
Islamaphobic . Please don't come to my country. We welcome only those who respect us for what we are.
My late husband was French. He worked in Malaysia and fell in love with the country. We purchased a land hoping that one day we can retire in Malaysia. He preferred Malaysia over France over United States over any European or American country. Religion didn’t bother him because all Malaysians don’t matter Malay Chinese Indian Muslim Buddhist Hindu Christian all are very very nice to him. Malaysia is very diverse. He was surprised to see no church no Hindu temple no mosque in many part in Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and no Christmas tree also during Christmas season but he saw all those House of God and thousand of Christmas tree everywhere in Malaysia. He said no one bothered him and everyone in Malaysia was very very nice to him. He was not treated as a white or foreigner but as a family! So sad he didn’t live long to enjoy his retirement in his preferred country Malaysia.
Didn’t include cost of living for Barbados; probably higher than the others.
Ngee paanong maging best English Ang Cyprus?
If you are practical and knows how to manage your money,even $500 is more than enough in a month. There are family who just earn 10k php each month but they know how to budget their money,if you're not renting a house ofcourse. I have a relatives and some distant neighbor before who earn 10k more or less that's why i know, but don't compare them to those who lives like a rich.
every body speaks english in the phillipines i am here right now and i speak with everyone in english. do not say things if which you know not.
