Brett is faced with Cross-Cultural Management where he needs to take account the cultural factors that influenced the whole management of the hotel itself. Due to the Tau relationship between Salome and Moala, Moala is also taken responsible for this case, as he was aware of Salome wrongdoings and did not took any action of it. However, the incident was due to a greater good where the money was forward to finance the building of a church and not for herself.
