Phnom Penh Business Pulse
- Culture Relationship-oriented and formal. Respect for hierarchy is paramount.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best call window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. Cambodians value social harmony and respect. Use polite titles and avoid blunt confrontational language. Business deals are often sealing through personal trust and multiple social interactions. Maintain a calm and respectful tone.
Tokyo Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi KΕkan" (business card exchange) are central.
- Lunch Break Strictly 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The most effective window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs. Late afternoon calls (4 PM - 5:30 PM) are also acceptable, but ensure you follow formal protocols and hierarchy if multiple stakeholders are on the line.
