Reaction Chapter 6

     In this chapter, the topic was about the avoidance of uncertainty. It depends on the culture that how much people feel anxious about the situation which is uncertain. While people in some culture do not express what they think clearly, people other cultures are expressive.

     This article reminded me of my internship in the U.S. It taught me a significant difference between Japan and the U.S. One day, I went to some real estate properties with people from Japan and the real estate agent from the U.S. For people from the U.S., it was very difficult to understand whether Japanese people like it or not since they do not ask their questions. In addition, they do not say their opinions directly.

     Avoidance of uncertainty affects much to the behavior of people. It was very nice that I was able to know how each country deal with uncertainty.
