Each nation has its own customs and way of life. For example in some Asian countries, a guest takes off his shoes before entering a house. But this is not done in European countries, even if shoes sometimes become very muddy. A guest in a Chinese house never finishes a drink. He leaves a little to show that he has had enough. So does a guest in a Malay house.
