This paper focuses on the residential housing performance and people�s lifestyle in terms of\nenergy use. The research has to be continuously study in order to change the Asian people�s lifestyle\nmoving toward the low energy consumption. The research began with collecting data by\nquestionnaires which already distributed to some cities of some countries in Asia. In this paper,\nwe conducted review of energy behavior in housing of three different countries, Indonesia, China,\nand Thailand. Through questionnaire surveys distributed to more than 600 households, we revealed\nthe housing unit characteristics, household characteristics, ownership of domestic electrical\nappliances, use of indoor thermal equipment, and monthly energy use. Based on questionnaire\nresults from all households in the seven districts, we conducted statistical analyses to find\nthe major factors influencing the energy use in households. Finally, the research results will be\nused to indicate the energy use and develop an idea for energy conservation in Asian countries.\nFor further studies, the researchers also try to discover the new way of changing the people�s lifestyle\nin terms of energy consumption.
