what is the correct answer plaese

 

 179. You are working at a customer location in a foreign country where it is customary to exchange gifts during their New Year celebrations . Your company forbids you to accept any form of gifts from your customer, but you have a strong feeling that if you refuse to accept and reciprocate the gesture, it can severely affect your relationship with the customer. In this case, it is BEST to?

  • Politely refuse to accept any gifts explaining your company policy
  • Discuss this situation with your project sponsor or legal department
  • Accept the gift and keep it confidential so that there is no loss of face for your organization
  • Take a break from project work to go on a small vacation during local New Year time

 Answer should be A, others dont fit the bill

 I chose 2 coz of code of ethics....under respect category - we have to respect other culture/customs and in the question it says it is "customary" and when we are in such a situation where you are not sure it better to check with your mgmt/legal....thats my point of view and from my understanding

Any other inputs?

answer seems A, because it says "politely"....so that the customer is not hurt. 

thanks
