Why do western countries like tipping, but east Asian countries don't?
Different countries and regions have different cultural and historical backgrounds, which also determines their different manners and etiquette characteristics to some extent. For example, western countries have a tradition of tipping, while eastern countries do not have this habit.

Tipping is very common in the west. Tipping is very common in western countries. For them, tipping is not only a friendly performance, it can make the atmosphere between the waiter and the customer more friendly and harmonious, and it can also show the customer's affirmation and recognition of the waiter's work to a certain extent. Not only that, but for some countries that attach importance to gentlemanly manners, this practice also increases the personal charm of this person and shows his gentlemanly manners.

Eastern countries have no habit of tipping, which is different from western countries. There is no traditional habit of tipping in eastern countries. China is such a typical country. In China, we always advocate thrift. Pay more attention to the use of money, if unnecessary expenses can be saved. In our opinion, it is natural to enjoy the service as a customer, and there is no need to pay for the service. This also reflects the differences in the concept of tipping between East and West.

Cultural Blending For such cultural differences, we must do as the Romans do. When China people go to western countries, they should tip appropriately to show their respect and attention to their own culture. And when people from western countries come to eastern countries to tip, we should also learn to be tolerant. Nowadays, both eastern and western cultures are developing constantly, and the blending of cultures is becoming more and more prominent. Westerners gradually accepted the reasonable factors in eastern culture, while East Renye Fang began to accept the advanced ways in western culture. For example, China people are hospitable and approachable now, but they have also learned to respect the privacy of others (Westerners attach great importance to protecting others' privacy) and face up to Westerners' behavior of paying attention to independent space.

I believe that with the continuous blending and tolerance of cultures, our misunderstanding of ideas and consciousness will gradually dissipate, and eventually a good cultural environment will be formed, thus promoting the prosperity and development of the world.
