the whole world is for you... throw a dart at a map, if it lands on green space bro, go there
And the earth - We have spread it and cast therein firmly set mountains and caused to grow therein [something] of every well-balanced thing. Quran: 15/19
My first choice is not on there . . . I want to move to Oman because they've done SO much for things like education over the past years. Insha'Allah, someday . . . .
In the words of Hadhrat `Umayr ibn al-Humaam al-Ansaari رضي الله عنه, "If I must live long enough to eat these dates (before going to Jannah), it will be a very long life..."
The best country.. hmm..
In my opinion, the best country to stay is the place where you can do your religion safely, and nobody hates your religion.
Indonesia? Definitely not, you will only find muslim. You wont find Islam. I did a more-than-a-month trip to eastern Indonesia, and, with a random sample, of all the people i met on the road, 90% of them dont pray (shalat) at all. Not even a friday prayer. True muslims here have no place.. People here hate Islam a lot, and their shalats are really fast (5 minutes for 4 rakaat)
I heard Egypt/Morocco is also like that. I never heard about muslims in Bangladesh.
So far -in a place that i have ever been- only in Saudi Arabia that if you meet a stranger and you say Assalamualaikum, you wont get a weird stare or a 911 call.
I would like to vote but I can´t. Why only those options? There should to be also "Some other - name it". I would vote it: the place where I have lived all my life is the best. Home sweet home.
I don´t think we can really find a place from the earth where nobody hates your religion.

No place like home....I think I'd always return to my home in a little town in England wherever I went. All of my childhood memories, my parents, my family, my closest friends, they're all here. Nothing's changed and I actually like that, even the neighbours are the same .

Eastern Indonesia? Can you specify where this is? As someone who have been there many, many times, I will disagree on you that '90% of them don't pray at all' and they certainly don't 'hate' Islam(I've never heard of this). Not sure about other parts of Indonesia, but if you go to Acheh one of the most poorest but rich places(THE IRONY) in Indonesia they are a people who have suffered a lot through the ages and one of the only nation at the region(South East Asia) to ever fended off Holland in all its mighty and even by a Sultanah at one point in time.
If you go there, there are many Madrasahs and the people are friendly(but never mess with them) in general. There's like Masjids every KM and sometimes you can see the Masjid looks like it never gets completed but people actually pray there as they rely heavily on the funds by the community. You have to be careful though, lots of ideologies being infiltrated there.

Eastern Indonesia: Lombok, Sumbawa, Bima.
Which part have you been there? I am so sorry if it is wrong but that's what i got after moving there from house to house in a month.
Funny thing is, i found Muslims in Flores are better.. just like in any other muslim-minority areas.
Aceh is in west. I traveled through Aceh too, and well, i have to say i am also Acehnese. Yeah you can find a lot of Masjids there (and surprise, they have clean toilets unlike in other parts of the country).. but have you had a view on the city of Banda Aceh or Lhoksmauwe and their ironic lifestyle and nightlife? In a sharia province?
Well, based on my experience of living more than 20 years in the country..
Have you lived in Jakarta? Heard any whine or sigh when you read a Quran in a public place? Weird gaze when you do a shalah sunnah?
Depends on your environment anyway
different people, different experiences
He is Allah, other than whom there is no deity, the Sovereign, the Pure, the Perfection, the Bestower of Faith, the Overseer, the Exalted in Might, the Compeller, the Superior. Exalted is Allah above whatever they associate with Him [59:23]

You make general conclusion based only on sample that are too small. If your sample are only people who spend their days by sitting beside the road without do regular job, indeed, mostly of them do not perform salah. But if you take sample from other communities like workers or vendors in marketplace, then the result would be very different.
As to which country is best to reside in, it would have to be a decent Muslim country where living standards aren't awful and corruption is out the wazoo and the human rights violations like in saudi and egypt where they arrest and rape college students just for protesting. On the non-Muslim sides, it would have to be a muslim friendly country, like Canada, which rules out Islamophobic america and most fascists nations in europe.
And why we should to be so worry if someone hates our religion or not? Life is a test and sometimes we just have to face troubles when practicing our religion.
