—Is it worthwhile to fight for the preservation of one’s cultural heritage (traditions, customs, language, social values...)?
Answer: I think it is important to fight for our cultural heritage. It is part of one's identity. To be known of the cultural heritage is easier to find one's identity. There are different parts of cultural heritages. Language of one culture is important. In order to read and understand the cultural better, language is the most helpful tool to use. Social values are also improtant. Knowing what the values are can help people more clear to know the setting of the society. Once a person knows what his cultures are, he completes one part of his identity.
—Which part of your experience could be useful for connecting with people from a different background and make communication easier?
Answer: We meet different people everyday. To be able to communicate with them is important. I'm living in a foreign country, and I meet different people with different backgrounds everyday. It is not easy talking with them. First I don't know their language well, so sometimes they don't undertand what I am talking about. I also don't know a lot of cultural rules. For example, asking a person's income is not polite. I have to study those rules in order to better commuicate with them. My expriences tell me I should study the person's culture before I talk to them.
