Bangkok Business Pulse

  • Culture Respectful and hierarchical. The "Sanuk" principle (fun) means keeping a positive and calm atmosphere.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Always maintain a calm, polite tone ("Jai Yen"). Showing anger or impatience ("Jai Rorn") will lead to a loss of respect. Use the "Wai" (traditional greeting) if on video, and always address people with the polite title "Khun".

Jakarta Business Pulse

  • Culture Collectivist and polite. Respect for elders and social harmony (Gotong Royong) is important.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (11:30 AM - 1:30 PM on Fridays).
  • Pro Tip Best call window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. On Fridays, avoid calling between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM due to congregational prayers. Indonesians value "face" and social harmony; avoid being overly blunt or confrontational. Relationship building is a critical first step for any business deal.
