Synchronization Context

A 4 hours gap allows for a manageable shared window, typically in the morning or late afternoon. It requires some scheduling but supports daily synchronization.

Dubai Business Pulse

  • Culture International and multicultural. Sunday is a standard working day, while Friday is often a half-day or holiday.
  • Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip The traditional UAE work week is Monday to Friday, but many local businesses and government entities may have shorter hours on Fridays (ending around 12:00 PM). Sunday is no longer a weekend for most, but always verify your contact's specific schedule as multicultural teams vary.

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.
