Punctuality is something many People struggle with —e specially in age
where technology has made it easier than ever to let people know you might be late.
However in Mexico, turning up half an hour late is entirely acceptable, and in Morocco you can be anything from an hour to a day late without any complaint On the other hand Japan and Germany are sticklers (坚持者)for punctuality with the latter even requiring you to be early for meetings.
Mr Gamez has created a study to find how much and how little value different nations around the world place on punctuality — and the results differ greatly.

Similarly in Saudi Arabia time not so important, with People frequently turning up half an hour late to meetings. When making a social appointment in Brazil,you are not required to lie there on time unless the phrase ‘English time’ is used, which mean you have to be punctual.
In Ghana most meeting times are considered to be flexible, even if an exact time is given. It can very often mean at any point during that day. Likewise punctuality is not seen as a virtue in India. People appreciate it but it may not be repaid.
