This is just an outright racist rant... I don't even see the point you are making... Most Asian companies... Just from your experience with one. You seem to j

  It's a racist rant, but Huawei is just the incarnation of all the negative Chinese stereotypes. One of my buddies does a lot of business with them, and they're awful to deal with, shady in dealings, try to get out of paying whenever possible, etc. Business culture is not uniform throughout the world, and business culture in Asia (ex-Japan, maybe ex-Korea) and the Middle East is generally not as polished and civilized as business culture in the West.

    They are different cultures, it's not about polish. They think differently, thus they act differently. You are talking like the British/Romans spoke of themselves in the empire days... We are a bit past that now. No one needs your civilisation or your manners... They might need your money though. ;)

      First, some things are objective. Try being a woman working for Middle Eastern business-people and say it's "just culture." Second, Rome won in the end. The people that conquered them ultimately took on their culture. So it will be with Anglo-American culture. Even if in the future India and China are dominant, their culture will come to resemble ours. Indeed, that phenomenon has already been happening in India for 200+ years via British colonization.

        You speak of culture like it's some sort of sports competition. Curious mindset.

          I think our culture is objectively better in many ways, and that it's better for humanity for others to adopt it. Not just so "we win."

            "...I think our culture is objectively better in many ways..." The problem is... everyone else ALSO thinks THEIR culture is "objectively better".
            • rayiner 13y ago
              That's not true. Many people in Asia and the Middle East want their countries to adopt the objectively better parts of Western culture. India is particularly pro-active in that regard.

                No! They just want to be developed but in their own way. You really have no idea about what is culture or in what way cultures of countries like India(my country) are shaping, do do you?
                • rayiner 13y ago
                  I'm Bengali, so I do have an idea. People on the sub-continent want to develop in their own way, but they generally have a deep respect for Western culture and a desire to adopt elements of it. India has already adopted huge amounts of British culture.
              • bilbo0s 13y ago
                Yes... But many in the West want the West to adopt the "objectively better" parts of Muslim, or Japanese culture. Every one of them... like you... think they know best what to do on the behalf of others.

    I am an Asian and I don't think I'm an anti-Asian or a racist for that matter. It was a rant for sure and frustration more. But not at all racist. You read just anything and judge it too!
