Which is NOT a suggestion given on business travels abroad in the passage?

When travelling abroad on business, it is useful to prepare in advance and avoid pitfalls. Following there are several good tips that you might wish to consider.
    Show an interest in, and at least an elementary knowledge of the country you are visiting. Learn a few words of the language—it will be seen as a compliment. Be sensitive to countries who have bigger and better-known neighbors, and try not to confuse Canadians with Americans, New Zealanders with Australians, Belgians with French. Familiarize yourself with the basics of business and social etiquette. As a starting point, learning how to greet people is probably the most important to leave a good impression.
    Do not assume you won’t meet communication problems because you speak English. You may think that you are paying somebody a compliment by telling them their business is going like a bomb, Americans will infer you think it is failing. Do not appear too reserved. As Americans are generally more exuberant than their European colleagues, they may equate reserve with lack of enthusiasm.
    In Great Britain and the United States gift giving is not a very popular custom; people can spend their entire working lives without ever receiving a corporate gift. However, gift giving is sometimes an integral part of the negotiation process when doing business abroad such as Japan and China.
