The Greatest Newspaper In The World, aka the Daily Mail, yesterday had an article on this exact issue.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-...s-sun.html
Nicaragua: $995/ £609 per month
Malaysia: $1,000 / £612 per month
Ecuador: $1,415/ £867 per month
Panama: $1,865 / £1,142 per month
Mexico: $2,129/ £1,304 per month
Of the five, Malaysia looks the most tempting.
I just read the article. Those numbers are based on a (retired) couple so for for one person alone things will be even cheaper.
In Ecuador I spend about 30 dollars a day living on the cheap but still had my own room (7 dollars) ate out (about 3 meals=7 dollars) and spend the rest in the club and two taxi rides (combined about 15/16 dollar) Beer is a dollar in a club.
Malaysia is a Muslim country and alcohol is not cheap (excluded a few tax free zones) It is beautiful though and the people are friendly.
Numbers on Panama and Mexico are disappointing. Never expected them that high.
