BOWING

AGE AND STATUS
Respect for age and status is very
important in Japanese culture. The
Japanese are most comfortable
interacting with someone they consider
their equal. Status is determined by a
combination of someone’s role in an
organisation, which organisation they work
for, which university they went to and their
marital situation.
