KUWAIT CITY: Jan 1, 2020, Wednesday, will be an official holiday on the occasion of the New Year 2020, reports Al-Anba daily.

The sources indicated the next Thursday, corresponding to Jan 2, will be considered a day of rest since it falls between two holidays (between Jan 1 and Friday, Jan 3).

However, this requires a decision by the Council of Ministers, based on the Council’s adoption of previous decisions considering the day that falls between two holidays.

The sources added that the fourth day will be Saturday, Jan 4, as a day of rest for all workers in the government. The sources added, however, the approval of the Council of Ministers is needed in this regard.
