Go to any travel agent in Singapore (there are dozens in any shopping mall). Or check on line at Asiaair.com or Silk air, or Singapore air...
You will need VISA'a for most countries but some you get on arrival. just make sure you have plenty of small passport size photos of yourself. The travel agent where you boon the ticket can normally help you with your visas if needed.

laos packages="laos packages" What kind of expat employment package would be considered fair?
I finished an interview last week, and I have another schedule next month, and a face to face a few weeks after that.
It's actually in Vientiane, Laos, I asked in Thailand because I think I'll get a better response here, than simply in Asia Pacific - Other. During the interview we briefly discussed salary, but as it's the first interview I didn't want to go into depth.
I am currently on Stickman Bangkok's website, trying to see what I could expect. If there are some expats who could help me, it would be appreciated. I mean, is it normal for a package to include housing and a driver? Or is that only in some cases? I just want to know what's fair and normal for an expat.
The position is a medium level managerial position at a financial institution.
You can check on-line what remunerations are offered in Thailand. Job agencies often mention that in their ads.
The 500,000 baht per month Stickman mentions is only relevant for very few top level positions. There are no expat packages in Thailand for mid-level managers.
You can ask any headhunter company and they'll tell you that there are enough qualified Thais around so multinational companies do not need to hire foreigners. And even if they want to hire foreigners to mid-level management positions, there are a sufficient number of people interested that they don't need to entice them with expat packages.
Pay packages for mid-level management positions depend a lot on industry. In the securities industry in Bangkok, it is for example common practice that annual bonus payments range from four to eight (sometimes even 12 or more) months' salary. In the manufacturing industry, the annual bonus scheme is less impressive (normally one to four months), but the fixed salary is then higher.
For a mid-level manager in the securities industry (e.g., Head of Equity Research) should expect around 100,000 baht per month while a senior manager (e.g., Vice President) can make double that. International brokerages tend to pay more.
For a mid-level manager in the manufacturing industry, the pay is likely to be around 150,000 baht per month plus a company car if he's working for a multinational company.
Those salaries are subject to taxation.
For Vientiane, I would ask for a company car, but there is no need for a driver. As for housing, there may be local rules, which you don't know, so ask your employer to provide (a budget is set, you find what you like within the budget, and the company rents). You should also agree with your employer on a net salary (with an offshore portion) so you don't arrive in Lao PDR only to find that the income tax takes 40% of your salary and that you cannot transfer the rest out of the country due to currency regulations.

Thailand, primarily known across the world for its cuisine and Muay Thai- a form of traditional kick boxing, is also one of the most sought after tourist destinations in the world. Located in the Southeast Asia, this country is bordered by Malaysia, Cambodia, Burma and Laos. The country's economy is fuelled largely by tourism and there are many places that are visited by a large number of tourists every year. Bangkok, which is the political as well as commercial capital of the country, is also a major tourist destination. As a result of foreign investments, this city has grown into one of the largest cities in Asia. There is a plethora of cultural landmarks and entertainment destinations in the city that draws a huge influx of tourists every year. As a matter of fact, the only cities in the world that scores higher on the number of visitors are Paris and London. Wat Pho, Wat Arun and Grand Palace are some of the most visited places in the city. Apart from Bangkok, other places that draw tourists from all across the world are Pattaya, Phuket, Ko Samui, and Chiang Mai. Apart from these tourist destinations, Thailand's food is also one of the biggest attractions. Thailand packages are now available with various tour operators with great deals, and in case you have been searching for a wonderful destination to spend your next holidays, Thailand and its exotic places would be a great choice.
As mentioned above, Thailand shares its borders with Burma and Laos in the North, Malaysia in the south, and Cambodia in the east. All these countries have influenced its culture to a great degree. One of the aspects of its culture that has been heavily influenced by the proximity to its neighbors is the food. Thai food is a beautiful blend of cuisines from Laos, Cambodia, Burma and China. In many respects the food seems to have been influenced by Indian culinary delights, particularly the curry varieties that have uncanny resemblance with Indian curries. Thai food utilizes a mix of special spices, herbs and other ingredients. Sea food is one of the widely popular foods in this country, a large part of the country being surrounded by the Sea. Fried noodles, rice porridge and a variety of curries have become the popular dishes in Thailand. The southern food uses a blend of spices and coconut milk, which has made it extremely popular throughout the world. A visit to the country cannot be deemed complete without checking out the scrumptious food.
