意思
First-hand experience is better than hearsay.
文化背景
In nomadic life, 'seeing' the grass and water was essential for the survival of the herd. This proverb is a survival rule turned into wisdom. Mongolian business culture values face-to-face meetings and site visits. Sending an email is 'hearing', but visiting the factory is 'seeing'. Traditional apprenticeships in Mongolia (like thangka painting or instrument making) rely on visual imitation rather than written manuals. Historically, eye-witnesses were the most powerful form of evidence in Mongolian local courts (Zargach).
