    I agree with the fact that if there is a business deal between two people, it shouldn’t involve other family members. Therefore, I don’t think that the restrictions are too much. Because its a dinner to discuss projects, it should be treated as a professional meeting, rather than a social meet. As for the gift giving, I also think that the restrictions are necessary because you don’t want the person receiving the gift to feel uncomfortable. For example, when vendors bribe doctors to use their medicines and tries to send them on trips; because of this bribery it will make the doctor feel like they owe the vendor, and this isn’t how the medical industry should work. The same idea applies to gifts that are too expensive. Medical industry should be focused on helping people rather than gifts, and the restrictions definitely help keep this in focus.
