International Schools in Asia – salary survey | Backpacking Teacher

https://backpackingteacher.wordpress.com/2008/10/12/international-schools-in-asia-salary-survey

Worked at a school in Ho Chi Minh City. I have posted the information exactly as I found it (except for a little reformatting) and cannot verify its authenticity. See lower down on this page for the table of salaries.
