In Indonesia, when you are introducing yourself, or you are being introducing by someone, usually, you are
expected to say your name. Then, at the same time, for men, it is customary to shake hands by taking the other
person’s hand in a light, bland-clap and a slow and deliberate manner. However, when you are introduced to
someone who is older or in authority, to bow a little or to give a nod is necessary to show respect. On the other
hand, when a man is introduced to a woman who is wearing a Muslim headdress known as “jilbab” or
“kerudung”, allow her to initiate the handshake. If not, a man just nods, smiles and greets with words. In Islamic
customs, it is regarded as improper for a man and a woman to touch each other physically, unless they are
husband and wife, or considered unmarriageable, such as mother and son, brother and sister. In a social situation,
it is proper to introduce a younger one to an older one, and a person of a lower rank to a higher rank, regardless of
gender.
Last but not least, don’t forget to smile and perform a handshake in a slow, deliberate manner, as a hurried
introduction can be perceived as disrespectful. Unless you have a close relationship with an individual, always
address others using the formal “Mr.” or “Ma’am/Mrs./Ms.,” even if the encounter is informal.
