Here is my sharing: RADOR (recognise the difference, analyse it, decide it, overview it and react) So, doing business in China: • Be sensitive • Be Respect • Be cultural aware the important of ‘Face’ and ‘GuanXi’, by getting the right guanxi, you minimise risks, frustrations, and disappointments associated with doing business in China. • Start a friendship, it is very attractive to business • In such centralised,bureaucratic state, from my experience, using personal relationship is the only way to get things done easily. All the best and luck , hope see you succeed in whatever you are doing in China.
