:Example: Many cultural [[idiom]]s need to be discussed and overcome. In 1972 [[Nixon]] didn't just hop on a plane and fly to [[Moscow]] & [[Beijing]]. Careful advance preparation was made. Nixon requested to visit the [[Great Wall of China]], but was informed it was a symbol of [[oppression]] in China. It was built by the [[slave]] labor of [[tyrannical]] regimes, and many Chinese ancestors' bones are buried in the Wall.
