Because we don't just pick any day spuriously as the day for celebration.Why are you not talking about the greater confusion that December 25 and January 7 pose ?

I knew this was their plan when they hurriedly announced the public Holiday. Even Google calendar said eld is Wednesday, but they declared Tuesday. My wife said they'd gonna extend it that they knew what they were doing.

So much for the MuMu ticket. I am expecting them to declare four day for ileya salah. Nonsense

Ok. I hope they are not expecting those government workers to travel back to work only on Friday.

It should have been a week holiday then.
