The most expensive cities in the world…

.

I’ve found this interesting article about the “Cost of living” in different cities around the world. I know that Saigon is expensive, and so is Hanoi, but it was interesting to find them at the top of the list ranking #29 and #36. Even more amusing was the city to be exactly in between them ranking #33, while far behind - at #67 is where I’m headed to.

================================

A later addition - if I already mentioned lists, seeing them open in internet cafes and taking a look, then here is another one I saw this morning :

Top 100 Asia Pacific Universities - http://ed.sjtu.edu.cn/rank/2005/ARWU2005_TopAsia.htm
notice rank #6 (Really?! Whaoo…)

Top 500 World Universities (1-100) - http://ed.sjtu.edu.cn/rank/2005/ARWU2005_Top100.htm
notice rank #78 (Not too bad, considering what’s on top…)
