09/26/2007, Syria - "احتجاج على التوقيت الشتوي", AlWatan.sy


See Middle East / Western Asia Time Zone Map with current time

حددت الحكومة البدء بالتوقيت الشتوي مع بداية تشرين الثاني القادم على غير العادة حيث إن التوقيت المعتاد كان مع بداية شهر تشرين الأول.

التأجيل لهذا العام نعتقد أن سببه شهر رمضان المبارك والعيد الذي ينتهي مع منتصف الشهر القادم وحتى لا يكون هناك إرباكات للصائمين في ساعات السحر والإفطار مع تبديل التواقيت تم التأجيل للشهر الذي يليه.

ولا نعلم ما دور وزارة الكهرباء في مقترح هذا العام خاصة أنها الوزارة المعنية سنوياً بتحديد موعد التوقيت الشتوي والصيفي بما يتناسب مع كمية الإضاءة المتوافرة والتي تؤدي إلى تخفيف استهلاك الطاقة الكهربائية ولهذا قد يكون هذا العام استثناء عن الأعوام الأخرى بسبب شهر رمضان ولكن هذا الإجراء واجه انتقادات كثيرة من الأهالي وخاصة أن فترة العيد اقتربت وتحتاج لتجهيزات خاصة وكان الكثير من المواطنين ينتظرون تأخير الساعة مع بداية تشرين القادم الذي يعني الإفطار وثم انتهاء الصلوات بوقت مبكر بما يسمح بزيارة الأسواق من الثامنة والنصف أو التاسعة ليلاً ولكن استمرار العمل بالتوقيت الصيفي يعني الذهاب إلى الأسواق في العاشرة ليلاً وهو بالتأكيد سيكون وقتاً متأخراً وخاصة أن المحال قد تغلق في الحادية عشرة أو الثانية عشرة ليلاً ما يعني عدم إمكانية التسوق بشكل مريح.

ولهذا بدأت الاحتجاجات منذ لحظة إعلان تأجيل التوقيت إلى شهر تشرين الثاني القادم وهذا يفترض أن يتم السماح للمحال بتمديد فترة دوامها بدءاً من هذه الفترة حتى يتسنى لمن يرغب بالتحضير للعيد زيارة السوق

Government set to start with the beginning of winter time in November next unusually where the timing was unusual beginning with the month of October.

The postponement of this year due to believe that the holy month of Ramadan and Eid, which ends with the middle of next month, so there is no irregularities in the fasting hours of magic and breakfast with changing times has been postponed to next month.

We do not know what role the Ministry of Electricity in the proposal this year, particularly as the ministry concerned annually to the timing of winter and summer timing commensurate with the amount of lighting available, which leads to mitigate power consumption and this might be an exception this year from other years because of Ramadan, but this measure faced criticism many parents, especially the Eid approached need for special equipment and many of the citizens waiting delay at the beginning of November next, which means breakfast and then the prayers early to allow time to visit the market and half of the eighth or ninth night, but continuing to work Daylight Time means going to markets in the tenth night is certainly time will be late, especially that the assignee may be closed in atheist ten or twelve at night means that the possibility of shopping conveniently.

This began protests from the moment the timing postponed until November next, and this is supposed to be allowed to extend the period of permanence stores beginning of this period so that those who wish to prepare for Eid visit market

I was having a difficult time in scheduling a meeting for our sales reps in the UK and US... and coordinating it with the customer, who was located in the Philippines. This website is fantastic! Very easy to use-better than the other sites I was trying to use.
