  4. About The Japanese Culture The Japanese, expect politeness, which would include: • It is customary to take off your shoes in the reception area when entering a Japanese house, some restaurants and hotels will also require you to do this - there is normally clearly a place to put your shoes. • When meeting people you can bow, although shaking hands is quite common these days. You may well be given a business card, these meishi are used by businessmen and high school students alike. • When you address someone you should use the suffix "-san", so Mr. Suzuki becomes Suzuki-san. Never use "-san" to speak about yourself however. • Before eating it is customary to put your hands together and say 'ita-daki-masu' (I will partake) and afterwards 'gochi-so-sama-deshita' (that was delicious). • Never pass food from chopstick to chopstick

  5. Body Language Due to the lack of universal meanings, body language can have different connotations. Therefore when interacting with Japanese peoples, remember; • Avoid prolonged eye contact as it may be give offence • Be aware of personal space, with the exception of a handshake, it is not appropriate to touch.

Body Language Continued • Exhibit a high standard of grooming; it represents professionalism and respect • It is not appropriate to imitate the bow, as a means of greeting or sign of respect and appreciation, a handshake is acceptable • Smile appropriately and genuinely • Do not point as it is not polite

  7. Products and Services • Whilst in Australia the Japanese guests may require a translator, as it is not common for many Japanese to speak English. • Also during their stay, the Japanese would require extra brochures, pamphlets and activities of which would require bookings. However many Japanese tourists pre-book not only their accommodation before they arrive but also create itinerates and plan activities to participate in during their stay. • Also whilst travelling there is a need to have many photo opportunities as it is part of their culture and is a sign of both their wealth and status

  8. Products and Services Continued... • Also many Japanese are not accustoms to sleeping in double beds, though prefer to sleep in single beds separated. • It is also necessary to ensure they are provided with a bath within their accommodation, as it is their preference to bathe in a bathtub.
