Beijing Business Pulse

  • Culture Hierarchical and focused on long-term strategy. Government relations often influence business timing.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Ensure your communication follows hierarchical lines—always address the most senior person first. Like Shanghai, avoid calling during the 12-1:30 PM lunch/nap window and major national holidays.

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.
