Case 1
You wanted to start a MacDonald's store in India. You could not serve beef hamburgers there because cows are holy and beef is
taboo in Hinduism which is the religion of most people in India. MacDonald's stores in India now are popular spots because they
serve chicken or mutton burgers, a great change needed to ensure the spread of this fast-food chain in a place whose cultural
tradition and language are so different from the original country.

Case 2
There was a quiet knock at the door and in came a young Chinese police constable. He was, of course wearing his uniform. He saluted the
superintendent and stood smartly to attention in front of the large wooden desk.
"Yes?" enquired the superintendent.
"My mother is not very well, sir", started the constable.
"Yes?" repeated the superintendent, a frown appearing on his brow.
"She has to go into hospital, sir", continued the constable.
"So?"
"On Thursday, sir".
The superintendent's frown was replaced by a look of exasperation. "What is it that you want?”
At this direct question, the constable's face fell and he simply mumbled, "Nothing, sir. It's all right", and turned and left the room.
As soon as the door had closed the superintendent turned to me and said:
"You see. A classic case. They can't get to the point."
"So, what would you want him to say?" I asked.
"Well, instead of beating around the bush, he should come straight to the point. He obviously wants some leave so he can look after his mother. He
should ask for leave and not waste my time going on about his poor mother."
"You want him to say something like, 'Can I have some leave please, sir?'"
"Yes, exactly", replied the superintendent.
