As long as he's using an external source, everything should work. Assuming the TV has standard component/HDMI inputs.

I don't know if it matters if the TV is supplied with 50 or 60Hz AC, besides the voltage thing. Is it UL certified? Maybe it is a "universal" power model. Maybe it's a model made for "export" including the U.S.

I guess my comment is I would be *extremely* surprised if he couldn't have gotten a better price on the same/similar TV in the U.S. OTOH he might have got a great duty-free/miltary price and maybe the military even ship it for free...
