Well it appears that while I was in a meeting this afternoon, His Majesty has announced that effective from May 1st (thats a Wednesday by the way) the Omani weekend will no longer be Thursday and Friday, but Friday and Saturday.
As if that wasn't enough, interestingly in the Arabic announcement, it was also stated that all future holidays will be announced jointly, meaning that the Public and Private sectors will get the same holidays.
No word yet if Thursday 2nd May will be given as a holiday or not.
Well, thats a pretty big announcement, now excuse me while I go and change my Eid vacation flights!
le fin.
