[quote=CROBERTO,224169]The traveller must respect the culture and habits of the country who he/she visits. In China, a important thing is the concept of face (mien tzi). The rule says: "Don’t allow somebody loses her/his face in reason of your atitudes". Face is the respect (consideration, reverence, appreciation) that somebody receive from the members of his/her group and the adequate respect that he/she must offer to them, in accordance their social status or hierarchic, so well the recognition of their reputation and their family in the community.What is, in your opinion, an attitude that must be avoid/done to preserv the face of the other, especially in the relationships between foreiger/chinese people?
