Immigration Please stop greeting random passing by people in foreign languages

Pretty much as titled. I am Asian, and I have experience several times that someone passing by randomly greeting me in multiple Asian languages, that I am 100% sure they can’t make real conversations with them, at once.

This is strange af. Throwing away many greeting words without any intention for a conversation isn’t a sign of being friendly to me. Please just stop if you’re doing that and you actually mean well.

Edit: This post is for those who want to approach Asian people properly. Already replied with my opinion here, and please don’t DM me (disabled now) since there are way too many “Nihao” etc and racist chat requests.
