The Christians, who had to give up two days, chose the Saturday after Good Friday and Easter Monday.
The Hindus had to choose between retaining Thaipusam or Deepavali as a public holiday and chose the latter.
The Buddhists have only one public holiday, Vesak Day, to begin with, were not asked to offer any cuts.
Some groups continued to celebrate religious events of significance to them, such as Sikh's Vesakhi and Taoist Lao-Tzu’s Birthday, without these being public holidays.
Singaporeans, please REMEMBER TO LIVE and LET LIVE and never allow faith, religoin and culture to become politicised like we have seen in other countries.
