One other thing I heard some locals mention - that the method of disseminating information is culturally by word of mouth mainly.

They need to maybe sort that out a bit more efficiently because there are other cultures living and working here and the dissemination of information to others is very important. But understandably, they are a bit reticent about making bold announcements to all and sundry.

Some have criticized this as being too proud to inform others but it's actually not an issue of pride. It should be remembered that this is a relationship based culture, which needs to be properly understood.

/But having said that, sure - there is the likelihood that management is disorganized and lack proper communication - but like many others too.
