Follow This National Anthem Etiquette | APWASI | Etiquette | Dr. Clinton Lee 

A very random suggestion for me, but an interesting one. An organisation I am a part of during formal ceremonies sings the British national anthem. For cultural reasons I never sing, but I do stand, for remaining seated would be seen as disrespectful and would cause people to talk. Also, they toast the monarch, something which I for cultural reason do not partake in, however I do stand. I've never been questioned, however I was a little while ago told I was standing wrong (placement of hands and position of head). These are not my emblems, and some of my countrymen would likely be quite vocal about it, but I always try to be be as respectful as I can.
