Either way, you probably weren't living like 'the average Nigerian/Chinese', working or visiting. Were you?
The purpose of this study is to measure the general quality of life in these countries for most of their citizens. You seemed to be saying that, while it might affect them, it didn't affect you. I'm pretty sure the point of the study wasn't to try and differentiate between how outsiders would view the country, but rather an 'Index' on what life is like there, generally. I'm sure you've got experience there, but you're a foreigner who has more money than probably 90% of Nigerians/Chinese, if not more.
