government decided that daylight saving time would begin at the end of Ramadan on 21 April, but this was met with much confusion.

Mr Mikati responded that he had made a similar proposal but went on to say that implementing the change would be difficult as it would cause problems in airline flight schedules, to which Mr Berri said:"What flights?" The country’s phone networks sent messages to people asking them to change the settings of their clocks to manual instead of automatic so the time would not change at midnight.The row did not end there, as many private institutions, including TV stations, schools and businesses, announced they would ignore the decision and move to daylight savings on Sunday as previously scheduled.
