People of different nations have different customs of salutation. the Japanese bows, in my India says "namaste" 
and the Chinese makes motion of the hand. But the most world the custom of shaking hands is followed. Recently this custom has been criticized on hygienic grounds. It is said that some more healthy mode of salutation should be adopted. But this custom has became too deeply ingrained to give up. a greeting without the warm grip of the hand is cold and resulsive for them.
