I would like to refer back to a conversation I had some days ago, no, in the last week with one of my college mate, about an event we held about cross-cultural understanding. She tried to elaborate and describe two different persons in their own way of behaviour and attitude. The people came from Moldova and Uzbekistan. They were actually the guests of that kind of talkshow.
First of all, she focused on the appearance of them, including how they react to the peooke around. The Moldovan said that she hadn't been quite familiar with the custom in Indonesia to greet and give a smile to anyone around. This is relatively different with the reaction of the Uzbekistan lady who looked as if she smiles all the way she goes on.
But then my friend said something interesting about the personality. The moldovan is actually more honest than the later. It was proven since she helped another friend of mine in recording some materials, though the woman was busy enough and she had something to do right after that occasion. Both of the ladies are close friends to each other, but they had certainly a distinct character. It is not really weird since they have a different background, too.
Well, I missed that event in the first day, but I am grateful as I gain something from this indirect experience addressed through a deep conversation.
