Punctuality is more important in China, where time is considered a valuable commodity, more valuable even than money. For example, consider the following Chinese proverb: 寸光阴一寸金，寸金难买寸光阴 That translates to, “An inch of time is an inch of gold, but an inch of time cannot be purchased for an inch of gold.”
