Redoo, Thank you

From the title page, a synopsis of one of the articles.

Ukraine is the third cheapest place to live in Europe, topped only by Macedonia and Kosovo, reports a new survey of 132 countries worldwide compiled by Australia’s Ceoworld Magazine. Five factors were analyzed: cost of living, rent, groceries, eating out, and purchasing power. The five most expensive countries were: Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Japan and Denmark.

Interesting article in depth, though not sure that Japan is part of Europe.

I think they added Japan because it has always been in the top 10 for many years.  When I lived there in the early 1970's it was #1.
What is worse than not being able to get what you don't even want?

Japan doesn’t belong, so wonder which country would take its place?

As the quoted words say, the survey was worldwide. Last time I checked, Japan is a country on the Earth.
