KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 28 (Bernama) -- The Federal Government has agreed
to declare Nuzul Al-Quran as a public holiday for Federal Territories
(Kuala Lumpur, Labuan, Putrajaya) starting next year.
The Prime Minister's Department in a statement Thursday made the announcement.
Apart from declaring Nuzul Al-Quran as a public holiday, the Federal Territories will also enjoy an extra holiday on Feb 3 (Monday) since the Federal Territory Day coincides with the second day of Chinese New Year on Feb 1, 2014 (Saturday).
According to the statement, the holiday would also apply to Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya.
"The announcement will allow people in all three 'Territories' to make early preparations for the holidays," said the statement.
