Malaysia allows Christmas holiday, what about other Muslim countries?

[Rangila]

Question to enhance the GK:


In Malaysia, Christmas is a national holiday being a Muslim country.
We had a recent news from Brunei about Christmas.
Hence the natural question: Which other Muslim countries allow Christmas as a national holiday or not?

And by the way merry Christmas to all from this agnostic earthling.

No Christmas holiday.

So it should be mandatory for everyone on Dec 25 to celebrate x mas? What about the Scrooges and Grinch's of this world. They have the right not to celebrate X mas. Why force it on them?

Its not an announcement matter.

Public holiday is a well known factor.
And its Qaid-e-azam day.

Only thing that is clear is that in Pakistan's case it is not applicable
