Eid Mubarak or as we say it here "selamat hari raya aidil fitri"

Raya is coming to Brunei in either 2 or 3 days' time depending whether or not the moon is sighted or not. The moon sighting will be done tomorrow just before dusk. so if the moon is sighted, it means Eid will be celebrated on wednesday. Otherwise it will fall on Thursday.  I would certainly hope that Eid to fall on Thursday as this would mean that we would have a longer holiday as Friday which is already a holiday for public servants would be replaced with Saturday as the public holiday.
