Guangzhou Business Pulse

  • Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.

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.
