Please correct my mistake! Some people think that both travelers and business people must have the same attitude to local people and the traditions of countries they visit. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Give your own opinion.

With the development of the transportation, many people tend to travel abroad for their personal purposes like entertainment, study or business activities. Some believe that people should have same attitude towards the native as well as their traditions. Others, however, disagree with that point of view. For me, I think it is matter for visitors to respect the cultures and residents of the countries they come to.
The first benefit is that foreigners definitely gain great experiences. For example, when visiting Asian countries namely Laos, Thailand in about mid April, that is the wonderful time for tourists to cover the water pouring festival annually. The native believe that they will be clean, lucky and heathy when being wet from the water being thrown from others. Most of tourists show their respect by being part of the festival.
Besides, many business men who have right attitude to the local countries find opportunities to make profit more often. Take Thailand. This is the country where king and lord are worshiped everywhere, in house, pagodas or even on the pavements. Foreign businesses are well-awared of this typical feature and they want to spread out people beliefs. They create the shape of Buddha in gold or silver to sell as souvenies or things which bring safety and luck to people who buy them.
However, some of people think that there is no need to care about their behaviors a lots. They prefer freedom. This properly leads to the violent activities and have negative effect on the society.
In sum, every visitor represents for their country. Therefore, having respect for the others outside means they also get respected back.
