THE government is set to decide this week whether to announce an extended bumper holiday over Eid Al Fitr.
As reported in the GDN, MPs last week voted unanimously to give Bahrain it’s very own ‘Cinco de Mayo’ and make May 5 a one-off national holiday this year.
They voted in favour of removing the ‘odd working day’ of Thursday, May 5, likely to be caught between two weekends, the Labour Day holiday and the Eid break.
