Dec. 1, 26, 29 Three More Holidays this Yuletide
Rejoice! December 1, 26, and 29 are all non-working holidays.
December 1, a Monday, is nearest to November 30, Bonifacio Day, which falls on a Sunday this year.
This is the result of what President Gloria Macapagal – Arroyo calls “holiday of economics” that allows families to have long weekends (and government people be nailed at laziness).
Aside from these dates, the Palace released the list of upcoming holidays for the remainder of 2008, pursuant to Proclamation 1463, which President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo signed last February 18, 2008.
Regular Holidays:
December 25 (Thursday) – Christmas Day
December 30 (Tuesday) – Rizal Day
Special Non-Working Holidays:
December 31 (Wednesday) – last day of the year
