Hi All,

Cheers,

February 8th, 2010 at 11:57 am
@Nai & @Mia - yes, only schools are on holiday. Work is regular.
February 8th, 2010 at 4:38 pm
ganon, ibig sabihin ang pebrero 22 holiday ay para sa mga nag-aaral lamang at hindi para sa mga nag-tatrabaho?
February 8th, 2010 at 9:40 pm
@jena - para naman sa lahat…maybe the economy just can’t easily allow every holiday to be non-working.
peace jena! :)…but don’t loose hope, malay mo biglang magpa-pogi si Arroyo at biglang i-declare na full non-working holiday ito. 
February 10th, 2010 at 1:50 pm
February 13, 2010 is Paranaque day, but the official in paranaque municipal not sure if Malacañang will declare it as special non-working holiday on February 12 or 15, we want sana mas maaga malaman para sa scheduling ng staff namin..
February 10th, 2010 at 1:52 pm
I agree, maybe our economy can’t afford another holiday this year kc masyado n tayong maraming holiday. Just pray baka nga biglang mgpabango ang malacanang now at ideclare na holiday ang Feb.22 who knows db..????
February 10th, 2010 at 3:28 pm
