My Understanding about CCU

 According to what I learned that CCU ( Cross Cultural Understanding ) is About how we get to know someone by finding out their culture and various other aspects such as habits, personality, and language used. that was very useful and has many uses in our lives, namely to unite good relationships in work, school, and the environment. Learning about CCU (Cross-Cultural Understanding) we could know that it is important to know their culture and personality so that it is easier to get closer to people we have just met and have broad ideas about various cultures from one country to another. In my opinion, after I learned about this material, I have a better understanding of how to respect other people's cultures and give appreciation for the good behavior they have given me so that I can become a person who can foster a sense of togetherness and tolerance that can unite differences.

Getting to know someone's culture can make us understand that we can easily build good relationships with each other by starting a simple but acceptable communication. the most important thing is we have to understand that everyone has characteristics and characteristics that are different from each country.  it is very important for us, before starting a conversation, it would be better if we find out their habits and how they talk as usual so that the resulting communication could be closeness and intimacy. and in the end, there will be good things that can be done if you already have a good relationship such as opening a business together, making an agreement on a project, and so on.

Differences of Indonesian culture with another culture ( Japan )

Regarding existing cultural differences, I argue that these differences are the uniqueness and characteristics of the country itself. We can learn and get to know other people's culture is beauty in difference. that means, differences are not a reason for us to unite, but a habit to be able to appreciate and love the existing culture. therefore, I will explain the cultural differences between Indonesia and Japan (based on my experience)

When we came home from school, we decided to go to a Japanese restaurant for lunch. (our school is very close to the mall) after that, we immediately looked for a place for us. There we saw a lot of tourists from Japan who also ate lunch at the same restaurant as us. after that we sat down and ordered the food we chose. It takes about 15 minutes to wait. Suddenly we were surprised to see the way the Japanese tourist ate the food. they raise their bowls to their mouth to make it easier to eat with chopsticks, especially bowls of rice. we were all surprised because it was the first time we saw people eating that way. Different from us, Indonesians who eat slowly, and use spoons and forks, and there should be no noise when chewing food.

Japan

Indonesia

From there we understand that a person's culture is different, even from trivial things, namely table manner that is very common in our daily lives. But it doesn't matter to us because that's where we find the importance of maintaining our attitude and trying to respect everyone.
