hi Dr.P.Natarajan,

firstly congratulations,

1- run by the government
2- about 50-60minutes by flight and about 2days by sea, there are few daily flighst between addu city and male city,
3- accommodation will be provided, you can ask before you accept the offer. but as far as i know all the doctors who work in maldives the accommodation is paid by the employer unless your working at a clinic for commission based.
4- since you will be in addu city, the cost of living will be much cheaper than living in male, lets say you will managed easily for 500$ for a family, that is for food, school, and entertainment, ie if your dining out.

hope this helps

cheers
