GREAT IDEA!!!

 

 

When I was in Indonesia the Govt decided to do just that - in addition to Independence Day and New Years Day (secular), the main Moslem hols

Muslim New Year, Prophets birthday, Idul Fitri (end of Ramadan), Idul Adha -Sacrifice, Ascension of the Prophet) and the Christian hols ( Christmas, Good Friday & Ascension Day) they decided to throw in Chinese New Year, Nyepi (Hindu New Year) & Waisak Day (Buddha’s Birthday)

 

Everyone loved it!! All them holidays! and I never saw anyone NOT take a holiday on religous grounds. And Christmas is a frightening display of consumerism in the worlds biggest Moslem country-

 

The more the merrier IMHO

Except they aren't additional holidays, they're holidays for followers of Islam. According to the article, that is.

Just have floating bank holidays that people can take when they want. That's what they do in the US - I had 8 fixed bank holidays and two floaters which I could take whenever. It allows the people of different religions to take theirs to observe their own bank holidays.

I disagree with it.

 

All good in a muslim country, public holidays and Sharia law has no place here in my opinion.

 

It mad as a box of frogs.
