1 Syawal falls on......

.... Thursday, 2nd October!!

In case you were shut off from the world in the past few hours, the new moon was not sighted at any of the four sites around Brunei. As a result, Muslims in Brunei Darussalam would fast tomorrow, Wednesday 1 October, completing a 30-day month. 

I received a few sms'es asking me if I would be interested to buy second-hand telescopes from the Survey Department. This obviously referred to the unsighting of new moon in Brunei for the past few Ramadhans and Syawals!

Lets take the last opportunity to enjoy the benefits and blessings of Ramadhan.
