As regards tipping, these broad statements are, as so many broad statements, either wrong or based on prejudice and/or ignorance.

Americans might tip 15% because if they didn't (at home) they might have the staff turn on them.

In the 'Germanic' parts of Europe tips are just tokens to indicate appreciation, e.g. pay EUR 25 for a 23.70 bill.

In parts of Asia such as Singapore a tip is an insult.

When in Rome, do what the Romans do! Foreigners in America should tip and Americans in Singapore or Japan or other parts of the world shouldn't.

True. Perhaps you should go to the airport and tell the people arriving what our customs and expectations are.
