Cairo Business Pulse

  • Culture Traditional and relationship-heavy. Appointments are necessary but often fluid in timing.
  • Lunch Break 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The work week is Sunday through Thursday. Friday and Saturday are the weekend. Call between 11:00 AM and 2:30 PM. During Ramadan, business hours shift significantly (usually starting later and ending mid-afternoon); check local times carefully during this period.

Kuala Lumpur Business Pulse

  • Culture Multicultural and professional. Values harmony and respect.
  • Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (Longer on Fridays).
  • Pro Tip Aim for 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. On Fridays, avoid the 12:30 PM - 2:30 PM window due to congregational prayers. Malaysia is multicultural (Malay, Chinese, Indian); be respectful of varying religious observances and holidays. Business is generally professional, polite, and consensus-oriented.
