In this connection, it is suggested that since the UAE’s National Day falls on 2nd December every year. So it will be better if the winter break after the first semester starts from December 1 and ends on December 20th so as to enable the students and the teaching staff to enjoy the holidays from a day earlier to the National Day.

I request the authorities concerned to consider this suggestion favourably.
