Note
(a) Muslim
festivals are
timed according to
local sightings of
various phases of
the moon and the
dates given above
are
approximations.
During the lunar
month of Ramadan
that precedes Hari
Raya Puasa,
Muslims fast
during the day and
feast at night and
normal business
patterns may be
interrupted. Some
restaurants are
closed during the
day and there may
be restrictions on
smoking and
drinking. Some
disruption may
continue into Hari
Raya Puasa itself
and Hari Raja Haji
may last anything
from two to 10
days, depending on
the region.
(b) Buddhist
festivals are also
timed according to
phases of the moon
and variations may
occur.
