I have seen some of what you outlined in South Korea. Every gas station has attendants, no one can pump gas themselves. You go in a parking garage and there are people at every turn to point you to an available space. You go in a bank and no one stands in line, you take a seat and someone brings you your number and when it come up you go to that teller .... and they offer you a soft drink or coffee that they bring you while you are waiting.

The same goes for business offices. Where they have girls to bring you tea when ever you want.

It is unbelivable customer service that does spoil you. But much of it is mandated by the government. I do not think the entitlement mentality is there. The person can be fired, but the job stays and someone else is hired in to it. The factories are as clean and efficient as I have ever seen. All the employees where uniforms, since image is a huge part of the disapline they require in the workforce.

The same goes for school ... all the children wear the same uniform, school is year long and is a full day.

They still have a 2 year military requirement for all males. They can do their duty anytime after age 18, but up to 25.
