Exposure to foreign media can enrich learning and culture by exposing people to matters abroad involving other homelands, different cultures, and traditions. However, if a group fully assimilates foreign media as their modern culture, it is no longer enriching as it replaces the original culture. Foreign media is best used to supplement existing culture by gaining knowledge and exposure to other ways of life without completely replacing long-held customs.Thailand, bangkok

This document discusses cross-cultural communication in business. It notes that as business has become more global, better communication across cultures is important.
