Introduction
The world around us continues to grow and change. In order to communicate with diverse people from different cultures in the expanding global environment, we need to understand and deal with our own perceptions and sense of self, and understand and deal with the perspectives, values, and practices of people from other cultures. Friendship is a very important arena for this kind of intercultural exchange.
