Isn't cost of living also much lower in Southeast Asia?

Sure, but AWS infrastructure costs pretty much the same no matter where you live.

i believe he was talking how it cost more in engineering cost versus the saving we can get from infrastructure by migrating.

eg: if the infra cost down by 10,000 USD per month, they may say it's not worth it because they are paying more for 1 developer in US in a month.
