  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Professionals in Busan are known for being more direct and expressive than in Seoul. The maritime and logistics sectors are very active. Hierarchy and punctuality are still strictly followed. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour.

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.
