Hey Beyond,
Sounds like this contract is getting worse. Deske's post above lists all the details I was given about 5 month's ago. Now the base salary is $1000USD less per month?!? Crazy!
I had heard the bond was changing to a bank guarantee of $25,000 USD upfront too. Anybody else heard of this? If so they are gonna be really hard pressed to get expats to come over there...
It would be tough to negotiate anything with them while over there I would imagine. If you mentioned it in the interview you would probably be sent home. I would wait until you get a job offer (after the medical) first then try to negotiate with them...
good luck
