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.
Sydney Business Pulse
- Culture Relatively relaxed but professional. Early starts are common to maximize daylight.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Due to the significant time difference with Europe and the US, early mornings (8:30 AM - 10:00 AM) are often dedicated to international syncs. For domestic calls, late mornings are best. Be mindful that many Australians start and end their day earlier than their Northern Hemisphere counterparts.
