January 23 2012 Declared Holiday

You might be thinking whether January 23 2012 (celebration of Chinese New Year) is declared Holiday. We’ll according to Proclamation No. 295 signed by President Benigno S. Aquino III aka PNoy January 23,2012 is already been declared Holiday under Special (Non Working) days.

Here’s the list of other (Special Non Working) Holidays in 2012:

Ninoy Aquino Day                                            August 21 (Tuesday)
All Saints Day                                              November 1 (Thursday)
Additional special (non-working) day                        November 2 (Friday)
Last Day of the Year                                        December 31 (Monday)

To Chinese Filipinos January 23,2012 which fell on Monday is the celebration of Chinese New year and first day of year of the dragon but for ordinary Filipinos this is again another long weekend which may serve as another opportunity for bonding moments for familys, friends. The question next is what can we do to benefit from this long weekend? Here’s some of my suggestion spend the day visiting theme parks like Manila Ocean Park or maybe StarCity also try to check Jeds Island Resort for resorts and Avilon Zoo for Zoo. Anyway whatever your reason is just enjoy this opportunity and make your family happy.

December 26 2011, January 2 2012 Not a Holiday?

December 26, 2011 and January 2, 2012 is not declared as Holiday by Malacanang. Probably a lot of you are currently waiting for the latest news about it while others maybe asking their officemates and friends whether the said days will be declared by PNoy as holiday. Since the said two days comes after the busiest and the most awaited holidays in the Philippine calendar.

We all know that December 26 and January 2 both fell on Monday but upon checking Official Gazette yesterday it is very unfortunate to the Philippine workforce that these two dates are not a holiday. It was not even mentioned on Proclamation number 84 (2011 Philippine Holidays) and Proclamation number 295 (2012 Phillippine Holidays).

Let us hope that PNoy will change his decision (after seeing Valerie Concepcion’s performance and laughing in her jokes at the PSG Christmas party) until December 23 or else you will be forced to have a scheduled sick leave or file an early vacation leave for legality sake for these dates to have time for rest, additional day for family bonding and time for visiting theme parks such as Manila Ocean Park, Star City and Enchanted Kingdom.

The remaining Holidays for the year 2010 are Christmas Day (December 25, Rizal Day (December 30) and on December 31 (Saturday, last day of the year). See the complete list of 2012 Philippine Holidays.
