Confirming...

....All what was said.
Medical competence there is from middle-age.
They buy high technology instruments but cannot read the results.
Decisions are arbitrary and taken by a single man who can erase you without explanations.
Extra checks like Angiogram or Ct scans are requested as routine checks while they are dangerous for your health.
Yes, recently one expat captain was incapacitated by one angiogram...damages have to be "fixed" at home with annual leaves of course.
Another recent one was fired "with immediate effect" after a positive check which was not confirmed in his country afterwhile.
This is not a 6 months contract but a 4 months contract as you have to do a few examinations in the 2 months before the expiry and any examination can stop your carreer "on a phone call" or an email "sorry but you didn't pass ".
