Are Chinese people always unpunctual? It is depends. As a Chinese, I can say we are indeed very flexible on punctuality. I still feel unsure about it sometimes. If a meeting is formal and important, I will go for it on time or arrive 15 minutes ahead of time. If the meeting is more important, I will arrive earlier accordingly~~for example, if it is a test of The National College Entrance Examination, I will probably be there more than three hours in advance and be waiting~~~ if it is a date, the more time you are willing to wait for, the more respect you are showing to him or her, of course, at the same time it means the less intimate you are~~~When meeting our close friends, it is depends on our common time habit~~~most of my friend will be late for more than half an hour. We all don't care about it. Some of them will even be late for more than two hours, when he or she finally arrive we will just make fun of him or her---Did you masturbate just too much last night~~~~

Honestly, I think punctuality has nothing to do with race. It just has to do with the person and how much they value the ocassion.

I am very punctual, almost obsessively so, and I hate it when others keep me waiting.

Lol! i gotta say that Indians are punctual except politicians. Here sometimes there are so many programs conducted in which political persons are invited to inaugurate. You bet me, they reaches the place only at 30/ even 1 hour late. Lol!
