Address them using their surname with “Mrs.” or “Mr.” (avoid using their first name). Avoid physical contact like hugs or kisses, as it can discomfort people. Be careful with firm handshakes as they may come across as aggressive.People don’t choose their seats randomly. Proximity to the host (‘the emperor’) signifies importance. The elderly should take the lead when dining. They sit down first, get served first and everyone else should wait patiently. You should keep both hands and arms on the table. Never point the chopsticks at someone or stick them in the food because it brings bad luck. Because noodles symbolize long life, avoid cutting them. Younger guests should keep their glasses lower, and when someone says 干杯 (‘ganbei’), finish the drink, showing the empty glass. When receiving a gift, it is polite to kindly refuse it before accepting it. Avoid objects with the number 4. In Chinese language the number 4 has the same pronunciation as the word ‘death’. Don’t buy white flowers as a present. They are only for funerals. Don’t offer watches as a gift. It indicates that their time has come.Being on time shows respect. Try never to be late.
