And ask for tax preparation as part of the deal. What does the offer include? Schools for your children? A company car? A housing allowance in additon to salaray? Any other perks?

Also watch out for taxes. I met an American who was teaching in an international school, and he told be everybody leaves after two years because they can't travel. What he said was that if you left Malaysia for any reason, your income tax rate would go way up. So even though people were happy with their lives, once they'd explored Malaysia, they had to leave. Sounds weird, and I can't vouch for it, but ask.
