For many Saudi citizens, National Day symbolizes a day where the public can renew their allegiance to the monarchy and the Saudi government in general. According to Arab news, many shops in the Kingdom have gone green by stocking green flags,hats, T-shirts,hair accessories and other items a head of today's National Day celebrations. National day will also be celebrated at all Saudi embassies across the globe.Embassy and consulate functions are usually a grand affair offering the very best in Saudi hospitality and cuisine. Saudi students residing abroad will also host national day celebrations through the university student club. It is a day where these students can showcase their culture, traditions and heritage to the natives of that country.Within the Kingdom special programs are aired on television and various malls will organize a family event especially for the kids. Many local celebrities will also grace these events. Various parks within the city will also be decorated with flags, green ribbons and posters of the country's leaders.

Desert Moon would like to take this opportunity in wishing all Saudis across the Kingdom a very HAPPY NATIONAL DAY!!! May God Almighty protect the land of the two Holy mosques and may this land be blessed with peace and prosperity. May the Kingdom uphold all Islamic values and discard those that goes against the teaching of the Prophet (SAW).
