Of course Aussies and Kiwis are unique, if not just wierd, influenced by the bush people perhaps.Us pommies know how to behave when meeting 'ghosts' in China. Stiff upper lip, don't speak unless first introduced, never say hello, or good day. The yanks say 'have a nice day!' , but of course they don't really mean it. Expats are extremely clique orientated, extrovert in their own little groups. Its strange that they advertise to get other expatriates to join their group, but in fact only exclude them. They make no attempt to welcome newcomers at their meetings and are thus doomed to extinction.
