Philippine Holidays October 31, 2011 is a special non-working holiday and November 1, 2011 is a regular holiday… 4 day weekend yo!

October 10, 2011 by

As per President Benigno Aquino’s Proclamation No. 265, Monday, 31 October 2011, is declared as a SPECIAL (NON-WORKING) DAY throughout the country.

 

Last December 2010, the President declared Tuesday, 1 November 2011, as a special (non-working) day through Proclamation No. 84.

 

Since Monday, 31 October 2011, falls between Sunday and Tuesday, 1 November 2011 (All Saints Day), which has been traditionally declared a special (non-working) day throughout the country; October 31 will now be a NO WORK DAY to give full opportunity to our people to properly observe the day with all its religious fervor which invariably requires them to travel to and from different regions of the country.

 

This means a 4-day long weekend!!!!  All together now, say, HAPPINESS!!!! 🙂  it’s time to visit our loved ones who have passed on and make most on rest.

August 2011 Holidays in the Philippines

June 13, 2011 by

 

 

In the recent years, August is that other month where we have at least 2 long weekends.  This year might not be the case unless President Noy Aquino declares Ninoy Aquino (incidentally his father) Day, which falls on a Sunday, moved to the following Monday.  Very unlikely.

 

August 2011 holiday

August 2011 Philippine Holiday

 

There are two holidays this August 2011:

 

National Heroes Day

August 29, Monday

Regular Holiday

 

 

Ninoy Aquino Day

August 21, Sunday

Special Non-working Holiday

 

If President Aquino doesn’t declare August 22 as a special non-working holiday then we have to be satisfied with only one long weekend in August.

August 29 that falls on a Monday is a regular holiday which means that it will be a non-working day.   

 

*****UPDATE*****  August 5, 2011

 

August 21, 29 and 30 declared as holidays!  Even Aug. 19 too for those in Quezon City!

 

August 19 (Friday) has been declared as a non-working holiday for Quezon City-based employees in commemoration of Quezon City Day.

 

August 21 (Sunday) will be a special non-working holiday in commemoration of Benigno S. Aquino death anniversary, by virtue of Proclamation 84, which brings back the celebration of national holidays on their actual dates.

 

August 29 (Monday) is declared as a holiday throughout the country to celebrate National Heroes Day.

 

August 30 (Tuesday) is likewise declared as a special non-working holiday in commemoration of Eid’l Fit’r (End of Ramadan).

 

HOORAY for the 4-day long weekend!!!  **little dance.  little dance**
