Shoes and sandals are difficult to find, they also don t wear well with humidity. Suits or a jacket and trousers are generally worn to the office, sometimes waistcoat and braces. Lecturers do not have to wear a jacket, but generally wear a tie. A dark suit is necessary for formal social occasions. Cotton dresses, blouses and skirts are worn during the day, but dress up for work.
Many places have air conditioning and can get cold.
