Is that salary monthly or yearly ?? 

Is it after tax taken out or before ??

Is the company supplying accommodation, food, transport and airfares ??

If not then it is probably too low.

Airfares are usually paid by the company. May be difficult to get paid back. 

Company pay for visa 

Is company paying tax in PNG or offshore ?? 
If not this may cause problems.

Money needs to be paid into overseas bank account with an allowance paid in local currency or your friend has a credit card he can use to withdraw money when he needs to.

Is it too low ??
Depends on where he is working and what the job is.

Security can be a problem so the salary should reflect this.
