Moving to India or China with the wife? Advice needed.

ladies and Gentlemen,

My wife is looking at being made redundant due to her department moving abroad.

We are starting to think about moving too, but not to the ME (wife doesn't want to live in a Muslim country), so i am now orientating myself to India and China.
I do realize that both have vastly different cultures, but in termes of quality of living for my wife and me, which one would suit us best? We like nature, culture and my wife loves shopping obviously.
I'm currently a Captain on B737 and have seen various opportunities with local airlines. I do prefer Hainan in China and Jet Airways in India as they have connections to "home".

Could anybody assist us in getting a better picture what to expect if moving (not commuting) to one of these countries?

is flightcrew treated with respect?
Will my wife (blond most of the time but not stupid) feel confortable and safe?

We would be renting out an appartment.

Thank you in advance,

despegue
