Is that some kind of eastern or muslim-aligned thing, or maybe have something with a climate? In western Russia you sometimes meet (mostly elderly) caucasian dudes from eastern parts and bordering countries who talk a little like that, while natives seldom talk at all besides what’s needed. Is that some shared cultural custom in the region?
I think it is a Middle Eastern thing. Something like cultural hospitality and the connection of social/community and economic ties. “Business is personal” is how I heard a friend who was in Iraq say it.
