Hi there!

I received a job offer from 2 different company in Port Moresby and Lae and I'm still in a week of process of package negotiation.

I can consider working in this country but I don't know the salary range for supervisory and managerial position?

I'm in the field of engineering professional with 13+ years of experience.

What would be the decent monthly salary range should I say or accept?

accommodation, water/electric bills, and transportation will be covered by the company.

Australian, Canadian, US, Euro, etc expot are welcome to reply!

Hope to hear from you

As a civil superintendent with 40 + years experience who has worked in PNG off and on, I can get a net salary of $16,000 per month on a 6 week on 2 week off roster with all flights back home paid for by employer. Medical insurance, accommodation etc covered by employer.
I have to pay my own superannuation contributions out that amount

Engineers get around $10,000 per month. Remember that taxes are high in PNG, same rate as Australia.

As you are a Filipino I think you will be offered less money as you will not be classed as an expatriate but as a TCN, Third Country National.
