    Konesia has a high power distance index.

    Explanation:

    Based on Geert Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory, the power distance dimension is one of the dimensions of his cultural value analysis.

    Power distance index (PDI) measures "the extent to which the less powerful members of organizations and institutions (like the family) accept and expect that power is distributed unequally". Here high power distance index means the lower strata and followers of power accept hierarchy and are highly "submissive" to perceived powerful entities without question or doubt while the low PDI defines the opposite.
