The other brother has kid there (presumably Singaporean), staying in VN longer term would need some sort of immigration arrangement.
Would be glad to know more...
If the Singaporean choose to live like the locals in small and run down houses, eat vegetables and little meat, go around in small motorbikes, then cost will be much lower than Singapore. But of course, standard of living will be much lower too. Forgot to add, let your kids study in local vietnamese schools too. If the Singaporean choose to live like the living standard in Singapore, then cost will be around the same as Singapore. So it really depends on what the Singaporean is looking for. As for immigration, its not much of problem as something can be worked out easily with $$$.
