Gift giving has its own set of protocols (codes of correct conduct). As a general rule, a small gift from your home country is a good choice. A gift that is tied to the particular interest of the individual is especially appreciated. Gifts for children are also well received. Be careful that the “hometown”gift you are bringing to Singapore was not made in Hong Kong. Because many gifts carry symbolic meanings (such as, clocks imply death in China), it is always best to seek the advice of a cultural informant, who can provide you with information about cultural differences and traditions, before selecting gifts. protocol: ___________________________________________________________ Clue: ______________________________________________________________ informant: _________________________________________________________ Clue: ______________________________________________________________
