问题 What breaks up Indonesians’ extended family living?
  
Like Malaysia, Indonesia is a traditional honor-oriented society. There is strong in-group loyalty including family, friends, and members of the same ethnic group. This is the basis for widespread favoritism in the economy.
     Indonesians value large families, with extended families living together and supporting one another. However, increasing urbanization and the need to move to find employment is breaking up this interdependence and extended family living.
     Harmony and respect characterize the relations among people, Conflict is avoided as values and behavior in all aspects of life are directed towards smooth relations with others. People of low ranks do not make decisions; there is a wait-and-see attitude until senior managers reveal what the decision is.
      The best time of year to schedule business trips to Indonesia is between February and June, and again between September and early December. July and August axe vacation months for Indonesians who can afford to travel.
