Abstract: This paper aims to determine from the users’ perspective that cultural factors are important in a software development requirement engineering process. It proposes that culture is an important factor in determining the success or failure of a system. Using the design thinking and human-centered approach, a case study to elicit user requirement and a user experiment were done which gathered data from university participants from Papua New Guinea (PNG) and other Pacific island nations. The gathered data was triangulated with four of the six cultural dimensions and three of the five core Requirement Engineering activities that were influenced. The results reveal 11 cultural factors specific to the indigenous culture of participants which were found to have an influence on RE activities; six were related to Hofstede’s cultural dimensions while five were unclassified, unique to PNG.
