Packing Information for Your

WorldStrides Capstone Program General Information about Travel to China

• If traveling where insect threats are possible, please wear long sleeves, long pants, and insect

repellant.

• Deodorant and hand sanitizers can be difficult to find in stores, so remember to pack them.

• Tylenol and Advil aren’t as strong in some countries as in the United States. Plan to bring your

own.

• Over-the-counter medications (cold medicine, pain medicine, etc.) can be difficult to find; stock

up on them prior to visiting.

• Bring your own toilet paper or tissues, as many restrooms do not have any.

Before Leaving the U.S. • Make copies of all important documents: passports, credit cards, insurance cards, etc, that you

may carry. In case of loss or theft, you will need to know which credit cards to cancel.

• Keep a copy of the first page of your passport in a place separate from your passport. Either e-

mail yourself a copy or keep a copy in a separate bag from your passport.

• Pack the international phone numbers to your credit card company and bank. Note that many 1-

800 numbers will not work from abroad.

What to Wear The dress code for your trip is as follows (unless otherwise advised by your Program Leader):

• Company Business Visits: Business professional attire (closed-toe shoes, avoid heels in factory

tours)

• Lectures & Dinners: Smart casual

• Sightseeing: Comfortable shoes and touring clothing (tennis shoes are recommended)

• Religious sites: Many religious places of worship require a certain dress code (i.e., no sandals or

shorts). Please contact your Account Manager if dress codes for religious sites are not listed on your itinerary.

Packing Tips • Pack lightly – don’t forget that you can purchase items and get clothing cleaned.

• Remember, there is limited luggage space on buses, and airlines restrict the number, size, and

weight of your bags.

• Complete and attach the brightly colored luggage tags included in your pre-trip materials to all

of your bags (including carry-on).

• Make a list of things to pack and use it as you gather your belongings.

• When packing your bags, always start with the largest, heaviest, and longest items of clothing

(typically jackets or dresses) but not pants. First, pack tailored clothing that is likely to wrinkle, and save knits and wrinkle-resistant items for the top of the bag.

• Take plenty of hand sanitizer, hand wipes, and small packets of tissues.

• Do not pack valuables in your checked luggage.

• Invest in comfortable, professional shoes that can be worn for company visits and walking.

• Pack your own travel toiletries. Some countries or hotels may not provide toiletries, and

travelers often find comfort in using their own soaps, lotions, etc.

• Plan on wearing or packing layers; the temperature can vary greatly between cities.

• Bring a coat, umbrella, or poncho in case of rain.

• Pack according to the time of year you are going to travel. Be sure to check the projected

weather for the duration of your program.

7

• Do not wrap your clothing in plastic, as it is slippery and traps heat and moisture, promoting

wrinkling. Instead, use tissue paper to cushion folds.

• Paper or notebook

Business Protocol, Customs, & Culture

in China

Business Etiquette in China

Many of the customs and practices in the Chinese business realm draw from the country’s long-standing cultural values. Respect for seniority and punctuality is key and emphasis is placed on the group rather than the individual. Most Chinese involved in business speak English; though do not assume this to always be the case.

Dress/Attire

Chinese business culture includes a neat, conservative dress code. When in doubt, err on the

side of modesty. Button up shirts, slacks, suits, and ties are all acceptable for business meetings. All colors should

be subdued or neutral; bright colors are seen as inappropriate. Women should wear blouses or tops with modest necklines and shoes that are flat or that have

low heels. Men should wear suits and ties to formal events and meetings with executive officials.

Jeans are not acceptable in the business environment, though they are worn as casual wear.

Businesswomen

There are no specific risks for female travelers or businesswomen. However, all women are advised to follow commonsense security precautions such as: dressing modestly and observing local customs.

Women are not advised to travel on public transport after dark alone. Be prepared to ask trusted contacts to accompany you to your car, a taxi or your hotel after dark.

Greetings / Public Conduct

In China, a typical greeting is a nod of the head or a slight bow, although the latter is most frequently used in ceremonial situations. Handshakes are common in the business environment and with foreigners upon greeting and departure, but wait to see if the person you are meeting initiates this gesture.

Use titles and last names when addressing someone. Note that in China, the family name comes

before one’s given name. Some Chinese people switch the order of the names when dealing with non-Chinese or use Western names that they have adopted.

Frequent greetings used in China translate to mean literally 'have you eaten?' or 'where have you been?' and are the equivalent to 'how are you?' in North America; therefore they don’t require a detailed response.

Chinese culture does not condone outward displays of emotion, so individuals may not smile at first greeting. Maintaining an emotionless face carries through most public interactions,

especially business meetings.

o Avoid being too demonstrative: hugging, kissing, making large gestures, pointing with the index finger, and laughing loudly are seen by the Chinese culture as inappropriate.

When meeting a group, greet the most senior person first. Seniority and status play an important role in Chinese culture, both in the public and private sphere.

Business cards are a very important part of business meetings, usually presented when

individuals first meet. Public displays of affection are seen as inappropriate, though you may encounter members of

the same sex holding hands as a demonstration of friendliness.

10

The Chinese consider putting your hands in your mouth as a vulgar act, so avoid actions such

as biting your nails or removing food from your teeth when in public. Spitting is also not tolerated in public.

Beware: Cutting ahead in a line is a common practice, though the Chinese will not appreciate

being on the receiving end of such actions.

Topics of Conversation

Small talk is a big part of business meetings and meals in China. Safe topics of conversation include just about anything relating to China (in a positive manner) – from geography and

climate to art. Meetings typically begin with a round of small talk before delving into business matters. Incorporating a few words or phrases in Mandarin is typically an appreciated effort. Taiwan is seen as an acceptable topic of conversation. Be sure to reference it as “Taiwan” or

“Taiwan Province” rather than “The Republic of China” or a similar term.

Note that negative responses are viewed as impolite, so the Chinese will rarely say “no” directly,

preferring to use noncommittal statements such as “We’ll see” or “I’ll think about it.

Topics to Avoid in Conversation

Statements or topics that can be seen as controversial views or criticism of Chinese culture or politics.

Potentially sensitive topics such as political or human rights issues. Chinese citizens are not supposed to publicly criticize the government.

Referencing China by names such as “Communist China” or “Red China.”

Gift Giving

The practice of accepting gifts in China as a part of business relations remains somewhat inconsistent. Official Chinese policy considers gifts to be bribes, though gift giving is still a common, and at times expected, practice. Keeping certain guidelines in mind could help avoid complications.

To best address the gift-giving policy, gifts are typically presented on behalf of your entire

company to an entire company. Present the gift itself to the most senior member with whom you’re working or meeting.

Offer a gift with both hands. Due to official policy, some individuals might have to refuse your gift. In that situation, express

that you understand the situation. Gifts should be gift-wrapped, but be careful in the color selection of your wrapping paper. Red

is considered a lucky color and pink and yellow represent happiness. Avoid black, white, and

blue. Gifts to avoid:

o Anything associated with death or funeral customs including clocks, straw sandals, handkerchiefs

o Anything that can be seen as a symbol of “severing” a relationship – knives or scissors Gifts that are typically acceptable:

o Items from your country or city

o Gifts of food, though not at an occasion where food is being served o Writing pens

Business Entertaining

Entertaining is a critical part of Chinese business culture; hosts will take great care to ensure

their guests are comfortable (and well fed). Banquets are frequently arranged by the host and typically take place in the evening, though

these are a sign of hospitality rather than a time to discuss business. Wait to be seated; who sits where is based on seniority. Meals often consist of many different courses and to be polite it is best to take a small sample

of every dish.

A clean plate signals to the host that you did not receive enough food, so leave a small amount on your plate.

11

Most business entertaining meals will involve tea. Leave some tea in your cup if you do not want

a refill. Do not place the end of the chopstick in your mouth and try not to drop them. Once you are

done eating, place your chopsticks on the table or in the chopstick rest. Putting your chopsticks

beside each other on the top of your bowl is considered to be back luck, and sticking chopsticks in your bowl so they are standing upright is seen as rude.

Business entertaining often involves a strong drinking culture. Participation is encouraged; those who refrain from taking part without a legitimate excuse are seen as suspicious.

A meal has come to an end when fruit and hot towels are brought to the table. Tipping policy varies from place to place. Tipping is generally seen as insulting, but in certain

hotels and cities and among younger workers, it can be expected.

Some business entertaining takes place in private homes. In this case, you likely will be asked to take off your shoes.
