Should other religions' holidays be added?
Religious public holidays…
- Add holidays from other religions
- Allow floating days off of one's choice
- Keep the traditional calendar
What's at stake: The debate pits recognition of all communities against a calendar that reflects the country's history.
The left's argument
Recognising other holidays shows that all communities are part of the country.
The centre's argument
Floating days off, which everyone places according to their holidays and convictions.
The right's argument
The calendar reflects the country's history: changing it would erase that past.
