Abstract

This study focuses on the cross-cultural interactions between individuals residing in Indonesia and Western countries. In particular, the focus will be on comparing the national culture of Indonesia with Western culture. It is well recognised that each country possesses its unique cultural identity, with distinct customs and traditions. Both Eastern and Western countries exhibit their own distinct ways of life. The objective of this study is to juxtapose the cultural practices of Indonesia and Western individuals in their day-to-day existence. This study employed a descriptive qualitative methodology. This study examined the speech, behaviours, and lifestyles of both Indonesian and Western individuals. There are numerous fundamental variations in lifestyle, speech, and behaviour that are permitted in Indonesia yet prohibited among Western individuals.
