I do feel that there is something wrong about closing down all eateries and not allowing eating and drinking in public. Perhaps it started years and years ago when everyone was Muslim in the country before the arrival of expats. I really don't know. But it's high time that this was revised.

Myself, as a normal average human being who fasts, have no problem with others doing so around me and I would venture that MOST others would feel the same. There's always, of course, people who would object, aren't there. Why?

For those who are banned from eating and drinking in the workplace, try to set up a room for that purpose.

I mean, come on, as well as non-Muslims, lots of Muslims don't fast, Muslim women don't when they are menstuating. Pregnant/nursing women may not be fasting. The list goes on.
