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.
Melbourne Business Pulse
- Culture Professional but relaxed. Known for a strong coffee culture and sports-related networking.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The best time for calls is 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Australians are generally informal but professional; starting with "How's it going?" is standard. Melbourne is the coffee capital; if you're on a video call, don't be surprised if your contact is in a café.
