Palace Retracts November 27-28 Holiday, Except in ARMM

November 3, 2009 by Janey

November 27-28, 2009 is no longer a national/regular holiday. Malacañang has issued Proclamation No. 1808-A on October 26, 2009 declaring Feast of Eid’l Adha as Regional Holiday in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao only. This means business as usual in Metro Manila.

People in the Metro who have booked flights/vacation on that supposedly long weekend holiday must be really upset with the holiday “retraction” in Metro Manila. Businessmen must be pretty pleased about it (quite understandable). I almost booked a flight.

(I know someone who works in Singapore and is coming home that weekend to spend time with family during the long holiday in Manila, only to find out that they are supposed to go to work.)

“We apologize for those who have been inconvenienced by the change. Trade Secretary [Peter] Favila and the Department of Trade and Industry appealed for the change in behalf of the business community to limit the nonworking holiday to the ARMM because of the number of holidays declared for November plus the fact that we are still recovering from the twin tragedies of Ondoy and Pepeng that hit Metro Manila and Luzon,” Remonde
