Galeng! You got a copy of the Proc!
weeeeh!! good news ito!!!
dapat ang December 30 ay holiday, nakaugalian na kc yan
hi! can anybody confirm if August 24 is a non working holiday? Thanks!
wow..sna madagdagan pa ang list..thanks for this information.
ang galing nito ah!! hehehe.. useful na useful.. nyehehe..
too many holidays! can we check the investors’ side…no banks, no collections, with salary exp though no income(unless u r willing to pay add’l 100% salary)…parang JUAN TAMAD! how can we invite investor to create employment? we’ll scare investors! check phil economy rank in terms of business hope we see d other side. tnx
why is the December 30 changed to 27?
it’s better not to change that because 31 is also a holiday. why bother change it.
SA October 5, 2009 wala bang holiday ?
its world teacher day
imagine they will proclaim Fridays as holiday… sana maisip din nila na i-holiday din yung Saturday once they declare the Friday, kasi pano yung may mga pasok ng Saturday, balewala din. Might as well wag na lang nila move yung holidays para fair sa lahat.
to Ens..
this is a big favor for us where we can spend our quality time with the family. we also know the side of the employers, we always work hard for them and follow company rules,employees pay taxes promptly,holidays is the only consolation we can get from the government, if you are a filipino you will feel the same…
thanks for the info.
good job!
@Ens: Are you an idiot? Holidays are a result of important events and not the cause. Scare investors? Dahil lang dun? The main reason would be high labor cost and taxes. Tanga ka, so shut up.
thanks for the list..
We got more info from it..
No need to use harsh words here. People are only expressing their opinions.
To Ens.
Probably you don’t have anyone to spend the holiday with..If you have a family whom you would like to grab every moment of the day (as much as possible)to be with them, you would appreciate all these holidays…all you are thinking is about money..money..money…are you happy with it man? There are only 16 holidays, 16 days with your family, friends , loved ones…some of us are also working on sundays….that is why we appreciate these holidays…besides man..do not be mad about it…YOU can go to your work on these days ..ALONE…go ahead…work till you can no longer….PEACE!
tanong lang po kung ang April 9, 2010 ay i-mo-move ng nearest monday (April 5 ba o April 12)? sana i-move na lang ng April 5 para dere-derecho na ang holiday mula April 1 hangganf april 5, 2010. thank you.
I just wanna ask if there will be holiday declaration on March 31 kahit half-day lang po para naman makauwi sa probinsya. Wish it will be declare in favor for those employees who wish to go home like me. Huhuhu! sana………
declared na po ba ang april 5 na holiday?thanks
Only April 9 amongst the the Philippine holidays that is not change because it falls on a Friday
can u post the website kung saan makikita yung holiday ng april 5, instead of april 9 – araw ng kagitingan…
declared nga ba april 5 as non-working holiday in lieu of april 9?
anong araw ang holiday para sa labor day?
hi, its possible ba na ilipat ni GMA ang Labor Day to friday or monday instead of Saturday?
I hope masagot nyo tanong ko kasi we plan a vacation and sayang ung isang araw.
thanks
declared n po, ive just read it, holiday will be on monday…
ok, enjoy your vacation.
dapat di na inuurong ang holiday kung anung day un na un …pwde.
Thanks.
Just checked and confirmed if Independence Day is moved to June 14.
i agree with ens..investors will have more confidence if this country have lesser holidays..and holidays are moved for what..just so we can have longer weekends? then don’t you think its unfair to those who have work on weeekends or to those people / events the holidays are dedicated to. lenten season – many go to beach. is that what a holiday is only? come independence day…will you attend even for a short time some celebrations or just stay at home and sleep or go to malls? they are holidays for a reason and people just find excuses to make it into a vacation.
every day that we don’t work of course should be spent on having quality time with our loved ones..but we have to think both ways..businesses lose money when no work especially outsourcing companies or other small companies..we want higher pay, because of increasing expenses, companies need workers to work for them to generate income. and what about to those people who don’t have pay when no work. it’ll be hard for them to enjoy a holiday knowing they won’t get paid.
Nakakatuwa ang comment ng iba… Totoo talaga ang kasabihang “Binigay mo na ang kamay mo, gusto pa ng kabayo — buong katawan!”
– matuwa na lang kayo at may holiday… anong araw man yan, natamaan man rest day mo sa trabaho o hindi — hindi na yan problema ng gobyerno! pumasok ka o mag-absent ka kung gusto mo…
Hahaha
