# Countries with relatively low labor costs Some countries with relatively low labor costs include： -**Southeast Asian countries**: Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Cambodia, Myanmar, etc. -**South Asian countries**: India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal -**African countries**: Ethiopia, Kenya, Nigeria, Egypt, etc. -**Central and South America**: Mexico, Peru, Colombia, etc. These countries usually have a cost advantage in industries that require a lot of manual labor such as manufacturing, textiles, agriculture, and construction because of their lower cost of living, larger labor supply, and relatively low wages. However, it is worth noting that labor cost is only one of the factors considered for the location of a company. Other factors such as skill level, production efficiency, infrastructure, political stability and market access are also very important.
