from the ask-hn dept.

I'm looking to relocate from the UK to SE Asia (Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia etc). I keep updated on the 'Who's hiring' threads but just wanted to tap HN's collective knowledge as well.I'm 23 and have been working as a PHP Developer in London for a large fashion brand for the last 2 years but also have a lot of experience with front end technologies.Just wondering what the best areas to look...
