Summary
Westerners doing business in Asia often complain they remain outsiders regardless of their length of stay. A basic difference in cultural style inhibits Australians, and other foreigners, becoming 'Asian insiders'. This episode explores the respective approaches of Asians and outsiders towards business deals and each other. We meet James Louey, a man with a passion for handguns and who is the head of the world's largest private bus company; Janine Tay, who heads a retail chain with nine shops in Asia and three in Australia, and who is head of the Singapore Retailer's Association; and Brijesh Wahi, who has a software company in India which employs 300 engineers
