May I ask how do I negotiate the salary? I realised that my expected salary is low after consulting some of my friends in this similar field...
I am a diploma grad and have more than 3 years of experience in the same field...
Should I call him now or wait till the contract is finalised? Will it be too late?

Are you in a hurry to change jobs?
If not, my advice would be to look/wait for another job.
And when asked about your current salary, state your desired new salary instead, but claim that it is your current salary.
There are almost no companies which will offer their jobs based on what it is worth. Instead, companies will choose to pay the minimum they can get away with.
