It's a city where English language info is easily available and which a lot of euros know about.
Munich, Frankfurt and Berlin are a cluster**** of even worse proportions because you literately have to beg for shared housing (people play favorites, the demand is way higher than the supply and there is no young professionals shared housing culture like in London) as cheap housing hasn't been built in decades and what is available has all been allocated to rapefugees. It's arguably the worst time to be poor in Germany if you don't want to end up on the street. If you want a guaranteed apartment in these places 50k EUR is the absolute minimum income these days otherwise you'll comepete with 100 people for the same apartment (I kid you not).
Now you could say: Ok he could live in some smaller city but once you have lived in Bangkok or Manila for a year or more you don't really want to go back there.

Secondly, the kid is living (ok i dont read this thread so i dont know if he moved or not) in a shared apartment spending next to nothing in Manila, not in some super cheap (comparatively) SEA city even
so why does he now need to start living a 'non pauper' life
He's living the chill life in a cheap studio apartment in a gated community in Pasig.
To have an equal lifestyle in a first tier city he'd have to have a 4 year degree and a couple years of experience.

move back in with the parents, get jobs walking distance from home, work all the time, and then he can save
that is eating ****..... getting a nice apartment in downtown london, buying a car, and saving a lot in a short amount of time is not eating ****
not sure why you're so obsessed with him downgrading his life for many years in Europe
he is unlikely to upgrade his life that way and in fact in Europe native whites are on their way out either way just like in the US
you get shat on by feminist hags, the government, employers, you pay out of your ass for housing as everything cheap is given to rapefugees who lurk around all day in groups robbing people and raping women
some parts of Germany look straight up Afghanistan now, barely any whites in the streets in the afternoon
unless he has a plan to emigrate somewhere else I don't see the point in a life downgrade just to fulfill social expectations
