i suggest - holidays for all same number of days 2- the working timings need to be reformed from 8.30am to 5.30 pm with 1 hr lunch break for all govt and private sectors except for s/room, stores etc.....
Quite simple: If Oman wants to do more business with Western countries, it must align its weekends / holidays to the Western style. A Thursday-Friday weekend will result in a three-day window for doing business. A Friday-Saturday scheme allow you one day more.
Dhofar is the Southern province in the Sultanate of Oman. Salalah is the capital city of Dhofar (in fact, the only main city). Our little corner of the world is unique in many ways. If you look at the labels at the bottom right of this page and check out some of my older posts, you'll know why. As a Dhofari, I have insider's input. If you read my posts (old and new), you'll begin to appreciate (if not already) the richness of our amazing little world. Salalah is very special, and very different. Tribes, nature, mystery, magic, jinn, you name it. If you're wondering why I'm fluent in English, it's because I spent several years studying abroad. However, I am a Salalah girl through and through. I do not blog as often as I used to because my life is insane, but don't give up on me. I do write. I've been writing for EIGHT years! I have a lot of positive (and rather amusing) things to write about. Many of my posts revolve around women. I do not aim to only criticize the society in Salalah or the way of life. I am proud of who we are and how we live. I only intend to tell it as it is.
And alignment of public / private holidays from May 2013. Does this mean the public sector get less or the private sector get more? We shall see.
ReplyDeletePublic sector will get less I'm sure.
