Wow! Ang aga ng Holy Week!
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:30 pm
Nakalimutan na i-declare and Election Day. Kahit kelan talaga, kulang kung. Bullshit.
July 23rd, 2009 at 2:54 pm
Election Day is not a holiday.
July 23rd, 2009 at 3:28 pm
Walang Election Day? Hmmm… Parang walang balak mag-eleksyon!
October 29th, 2009 at 11:07 am

January 2nd, 2010 at 11:19 am
Hi All,
Yes, May 10, 2010 is Philippine Election Day and it would be a special non-working holiday. There’s no regular work to enable people to vote.
Cheers,
Sago
January 20th, 2010 at 2:58 pm

February 8th, 2010 at 11:42 am
just want to check if Feb. 22 is declared holiday for private sector…
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
hi po ask ko lang po kelan nga kaya ma dedeclare ang p’que day huhuhu…
February 11th, 2010 at 9:46 am
hindi ba minove yung paranaque day? (baka kasi 12 or 15)
February 11th, 2010 at 4:17 pm
may pasok ba sa February 15, 2010 Monday sa Paranaque?
February 11th, 2010 at 11:13 pm

http://newsinfo.inquirer.net/b.....n-Paraaque
February 12th, 2010 at 7:24 am
@Ajie - Thanks! So it’s clear now!
“Malacañang has declared Feb. 15, Monday, a special non-working holiday in Parañaque ” - Feb 11,2010
February 12th, 2010 at 12:00 pm
thanks for this very efficient information,

regarding w/ feb 22, may bagong declaration na po ba?
salamat ng marami..
February 12th, 2010 at 4:29 pm
Yes, confirmed! On Malacañang declared under proclamation 1998 Monday, February 15, 2010 as special (non-working) holiday.
February 12th, 2010 at 4:30 pm
I think wala pang declaration for Feb.22 According to DOLE it was holidy for all schools only.
February 14th, 2010 at 1:08 pm
Paranaque lang wala pasok tomorrow??
February 14th, 2010 at 3:42 pm
@Nhika & @Louiza - Feb 15 non working holiday for Paranaque ONLY.
February 16th, 2010 at 3:27 pm

February 16th, 2010 at 7:12 pm
@Rovelyn - surely, there are no classes for students. For the school employees and administrators, it is up to the decision of your respective schools.
February 17th, 2010 at 8:51 am
bakit nga ganon may pasok parin kmi d2 sa private school mga student lang ala pasok..ganon!
February 17th, 2010 at 10:32 am
@ehgay - coz admin work at school is considered regular work
February 17th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
students lng po b walang pasok sa feb22?
February 17th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
@domingo - yep.
(school staff depending on school)
February 17th, 2010 at 3:29 pm
hi! comment lang ako, bakit schools lang holiday sa Feb 22. students lang ba ang nag punta ng EDSA for people power revolution? to think the students who participated before were mostly the once working now a days…
February 19th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
ayaw ni Arroyo mgholiday sa 22 or 25 ang mga workers ciempre pgkakataon n ninoy un pra mkpg papogi…
February 19th, 2010 at 2:30 pm
@Chen- you’ve got a point there, hahaha!
February 19th, 2010 at 5:23 pm

February 21st, 2010 at 3:09 pm

February 21st, 2010 at 4:24 pm

March 29th, 2010 at 11:08 am
Iyong April 9 na holiday po ba or yung Bataan day na move po ba ng April 5?
March 29th, 2010 at 1:43 pm
@Mariecris - No, April 9 is still the holiday for Araw ng Kagitingan
March 30th, 2010 at 9:17 am
April 3, declared po ba as special holiday? at ung April 9, moved sa April 5?
thanks
March 30th, 2010 at 10:42 am
I confirmed that Malacañang declared April 3, 2010 as special non-working day to give us full and uninterrupted opportunity to ponder on the significance of Holy Week and to prpperly observe its traditions w/out prejudice to publict interest…
There are some rumors that instead of APRIL 9, 2010 Araw ng Kagitingan…. it will be moved on APRIL 5, 2010? is it true, is there any proclamation regarding this date???
March 30th, 2010 at 12:18 pm
Naswap po ba ang Date ng ARAW NG KAGITINGAN from April 9 to April 5???
March 30th, 2010 at 1:50 pm
@Nhika & @Nylan - Apr 3 is special holiday but Apr 9 holiday is still outstanding.
March 30th, 2010 at 2:35 pm
Here’s Proclamation No. 1841 released last March 24, 2010 announcing April 3 as national special holiday and April 9 as Araw ng Kagitingan =>
http://www.dole.gov.ph/secondpage.php?id=1160
March 30th, 2010 at 2:49 pm
wud like to ask if april 9, 2010 Araw ng Kagitingan has been moved to April 5, 2010
March 30th, 2010 at 3:38 pm
There is a latest broadcast daw in certain radio that Arroyo move the april 9 holiday to april 5, im checking it now with DOLE if its true, but no confirmation yet.
March 30th, 2010 at 4:10 pm
@Riza - thanks for the info. We’ll just wait then for any latest update or new announcement from the President’s office if they are indeed officially moving the April 9 holiday to April 5.
Guys, better wait for the news on TV or radio as I would be offline during the holidays and may not be able to immediately answer your questions here.
Enjoy the long weekend! Have a holy week. Check my Holy Week Visita Iglesia post from Cebu => http://www.letsgosago.net/2010.....esia-cebu/
March 30th, 2010 at 4:13 pm
alright, till tomorrow guys, as per DOLE region 3 (”,)for the confirmation…thanks
March 30th, 2010 at 7:41 pm
hi!!ask ko lng po if n moved ung holiday ng april 5 para s holiday ng april 9 for araw ng kgitingn tnx ppoh!!!
March 31st, 2010 at 9:54 am
guys, di po na-move to april 5 ang april holiday as per DOLE 3 unless till sunday biglang susulpot si arroyo and declare it (”,)…though ang april ginawa na din namang special holiday….thanksss…good morning Sago! miss u
March 31st, 2010 at 9:55 am
i mean ang april 3 ginawa naman na din pong special holiday
March 31st, 2010 at 1:56 pm
@Riza - thanks for the info. So there you go kiddos, April 9 holiday seem to stick
March 31st, 2010 at 4:54 pm
Dapat ang Sunday, April 4 ay holiday. I think mas importante sa mga Christians yung nabuhay ulit si Christ. Yun ang pinaka basis ng Christianity di ba, that Christ is still living today? Otherwise, walang sense na sumamba sa Diyos na patay. Thinking aloud lang.
April 1st, 2010 at 10:29 am
@Ruby.. those are just practices.. Christ was nailed on the cross only once, theres no sense on what you believe na patay this week si Christ.. my gosh.. mga old nkasanayang paniniwala.. pls read your Bible.. sorry.. kpag nkakarinig ako ng ganito i cant help but say something.. no offense.. read your Bible and you will know the truth.. cheers!
April 1st, 2010 at 10:31 am
pipol.. paulit ulit na tanong paulit ulit na tanong.. nasagot na tanong padin nasagot na tanong padin.. goodness! dont play dumb!
April 1st, 2010 at 7:18 pm
Yeah, Lena is right…
Holiday nga ba April 9???
April 3rd, 2010 at 10:08 am
totoo po b na april 5, 2010 ang walang pasok instead of April 9,2010 na araw ng kagitingan?
April 3rd, 2010 at 2:03 pm
@ricky: LOL! makinig naman kau kay Lena, nasagot na ang ating mga katanungan,
pero totoo nga ba yun?
April 3rd, 2010 at 2:14 pm
ask ko lang kase may mga nag text sa akin na holiday na daw sa monday (april 5) totoo ba? or meron bang site na pwede ko malaman kung may declaration na. thanks a lot
April 3rd, 2010 at 2:28 pm
n move b tlga april 5 ung holiday for april 9?
April 3rd, 2010 at 4:36 pm
Is APril 5 a Holiday??? Thanks!!!!
April 3rd, 2010 at 4:42 pm
Ah…ok thankz…Lena…sorry 4 repeating the question….
April 4th, 2010 at 7:52 am
lol! nice one ricky.
but really, lena is right. sana naman yung mga tao nagbabasa din muna bago magpost nang magpost ng mga tanong. though i understand na siguro minsan di pa narerefresh o na-update yung site o page kaya marahil di nila nalalaman na may nauna nang nagtanong ng parehong tanong. pero, maganda nyan talaga, magbasa muna. tanong nang tanong nang paulit ulit eh.
April 4th, 2010 at 11:27 am
holiday daw tmrw? April 5, 2010 totoo ba ito???
instead of april 9 holiday nilipat daw sa april 5????
April 4th, 2010 at 12:13 pm
I can’t believe why would people keep on repeating the same questions when answers are already patiently given a thousand times. kulit.
April 5th, 2010 at 12:55 am
ung paulit-ulit malamang ng-uupdate lang, minsan kasi last minute na kung mag-announce ng holiday dito. wag naman kayo mainis sa kanila. in fact dapat papasok ako bukas but then my officemate called me up and told me wala daw pasok bukas (april 5) napanood “DAW” niya sa tv, but i want to be sure of it kaya pati ako magtatanong din..namoved nga ba ang holiday sa april 5? so far kasi wala ako makita official declaration, di ko rin napanood sa tv (wala ako tv lol)..
April 5th, 2010 at 1:07 am
@RUBY tama ka walang Diyos na namatay, therefore Jesus is not GOd kasi namatay siya, peru ang pagkamatay once lang, di paulit-ulit. and to all, please wake up, GOD is ONLY ONE, THE ONE WHO CREATED US ALL. NEVER BRAG THAT YOUR RELIGION IS THE WAY TO YOUR SALVATION! RELIGIONS ARE JUST MADE BY MEN! YOU WILL BE JUDGED NOT BY YOUR RELIGION BUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. Read the Bible
April 5th, 2010 at 1:09 am
Today, April 5, is not a holiday in the Philippines. Feriod
April 5th, 2010 at 6:26 pm
ano po ba talaga latest update… na move po ba talaga ang holiday ng april 5, 2010… or na retain na ang april 9, 2010

April 8th, 2010 at 10:48 am
ayos talag yang si gloria, di man lang nagisip oh n n ung ibang compan may pasok ng saturday,samantalang pang alanganin araw ung holiday nililipat nya,mas pinapaboran talaga mga goverment sector, di man lang naisip n may private sector din
April 8th, 2010 at 10:50 am

April 8th, 2010 at 3:09 pm
It was mentioned na holiday po tomorrow April 9 (Fri) and that is final. Thank you po for the information. Pero is the sandwiched April 10 (Sat) also declared as a Holiday. May difference po kasi ito sa sweldo ng mga may pasok sa araw na ito. Plus some schools are starting summer classes this Saturday. Hope someone could reply po as soon as possible. Thank you!
April 8th, 2010 at 3:20 pm
@Joei - I personally believe April 10 will not be declared as a holiday. We are just past the first quarter andd we already had a number of holidays. I think businesses would bewail another impromptu special holiday.
April 8th, 2010 at 3:32 pm
@Sago - Thanks po!
Honestly, I’m not wishing for another holiday myself…Hirap magHABOL sa mga deadlines.
Anyway, naguluhan lang kasi ako sa Grad. School namin. I just called them this AM to ask about the time of our class on Saturday (April 10), tapos the Secretary just blurted out… “Ano ka ba, walang class noh, Holiday siya… April 9, 10 & 11 are all declared by GMA… Nung Feb 2010 pa declared… Di ka ba nagbabasa ng dyaryo?”
Kaya I opted to confirm. Akala ko kasi ganoon na ako kaSPACED out sa mga nangyayari because of work.
April 13th, 2010 at 12:40 am
ask ko lang … nag fall ng Saturday ang labor Day ( May 1, 2010 )… me declaration po ba na - move ang holiday ng April 30 ( Friday ) or May 3 ( Monday )….. nangyayari po kc to nun nakakaraan pag nag declare si gma… this time, may declaration po ba si gma? asking for another long weekend..he he he! bitin pa un nakaraang 2 long weekends
April 13th, 2010 at 4:26 pm
@marlyn - unlikely. Those with Saturday jobs would benefit from this Saturday holiday.
April 22nd, 2010 at 11:57 am
so it mean na d gagawing friday (April 30) o Monday (May 3) ung holiday?
Ang gulo ni madam kung kelan lang trip nya magdeclare un ggwin nya…
April 23rd, 2010 at 11:24 am

April 29th, 2010 at 8:27 am
See Proclamation No. 2043
Declaring Monday, May 3, 20101 as Regular Holiday Throughout The Country.
It states that RA 9849 provides that Labor Day shall be observed on a nearest Monday to May 1, which happens to be May 3, 2010.
It is not a special non-working holiday but a REGULAR HOLIDAY. Kung papasukin kayo, your company should pay 200% of your regular salary rate (per day).
Case close.

Good news for the Monday workers but bad for the Saturday employees.
April 30th, 2010 at 9:15 am
Hi, medyo off topic po to, ibig sabihin ang US Embassy is close on may 3, 2010. ?
bad news to for me. waaa
April 30th, 2010 at 4:59 pm
May right ba ang private company na mag move ng holiday kahit decleared na ito ng goverment? kasi yung may 3 na labor day holiday..ginawa daw may 4 ng office namin..para daw maka pag sportfest event. most of the employee do not agree..pero management ang ng decide..Pwede ba ito i complain sa goverment agency? kasi dapat we pay 200% kpag pumasok kami ng may 3.. Any advice..
May 1st, 2010 at 12:19 am
@Eli -yes
@Underpaid - the company might have a way out to move the govy holiday especially if the work is in the ‘critical’-task industry. However, I believe you should still be paid 200% on Monday which is still a regular holiday.
May 3rd, 2010 at 10:33 pm

May 4th, 2010 at 2:19 pm

Thanks.

May 20th, 2010 at 11:13 am
@Tom - yeah, word has it that this is possible given what PGMA did with moving May 1 holiday to May 3.
Would you be in the know? sources? links?

Yes, i t was declared pa last december 2009 under proclamation 1841. Better check the website for the List of Holiday for the year.
May 27th, 2010 at 12:52 pm

June 3rd, 2010 at 11:36 am

@Ken - yes, as indicated in the Philippine holidays blog post above.
June 14th, 2010 at 10:09 am
why is it declare in June 14 2010 will be Independence day
June 14th, 2010 at 2:35 pm
@Jhelkya - the Philippine government sometimes does that for ‘holiday economics’ reason. June 12 is still the official Philippine Independence Day.
June 17th, 2010 at 12:44 pm
Sana yung death ni Cory gawin ding Holiday>>>
June 25th, 2010 at 11:03 am
FYI: June 30, 2010, Wednesday was declared by the Office of The President last June 18, 2010 as Special Non-working Holiday to celebrate the INAUGURATION of the newly President elect President Noynoy Aguino. For us to witness this day whether we join to the Quirino Grandstand, we watch on our television or just listen to the radio.
June 25th, 2010 at 12:36 pm
what’s the rate if its non working holiday?is it no work no pay?
June 25th, 2010 at 12:40 pm
For me I voted for GIBO, but since Noynoy won ofcourse I respect that, we have newly elected President now so lets be united..
June 25th, 2010 at 2:07 pm
@Nhika - yes, you’re right, just as indicated in the post.
@skydreamer - I’m not that sure. try to consult with the HR dept. of your company.
June 28th, 2010 at 6:47 pm
hi sago,
i would like a complete list of holidays in the philippines. it would be great if you have the fiestas in all provinces so we can schedule our visits.
i know you will be able to reply immediately and i truly appreciate it.
regards!
June 29th, 2010 at 2:40 pm
hi sago,
i would like to ask if July 27, 2010 is a special non-working holiday? thanks
bgrds,
June 29th, 2010 at 6:18 pm
@Krisles - I’ll have to research on it first and perhaps come up w/ the list end of July.
@trixckzy - July 27 is a Special National “Working holiday”.
July 16th, 2010 at 5:58 pm
Hi Sago,
I would like to ask if july 26, 2010 (SONA of President Aquino) is a holiday or not??..
tnx..
July 17th, 2010 at 12:10 am
@Endz - SONA are not declared as holidays.

July 21st, 2010 at 2:22 pm
@joy - maybe there’s just a clamour not have classes/work on July 26 (SONA). People generally wants a long weekend / holiday / vacation.
July 22nd, 2010 at 12:42 pm
Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda declared July 26 is not a holiday.

@manie
wala pang confirmation, pero sabi daw WORKING holiday daw yun.. anung klase yun? wala man lang benefit sa mga INC members… ANg daming INC na may trabaho at estudyante, isipin nmn ni Pnoy yun, mababawasan agad sya nyan ng pagkadami daming supporters pag hindi naging non-working holiday ang 27
July 26th, 2010 at 10:54 pm

August 7th, 2010 at 10:36 am

August 12th, 2010 at 1:56 pm
@Lyn - technically, the president has powers to do so. He can move the holidays just like what GMA did.
But as I mentioned in my article http://www.letsgosago.net/2010.....a-holiday/ , I suggested that they should have maintained it instead.
Anyhow that is done.
For the August 30 Holiday, it will not be moved. because in the first place, that is the actual holiday itself.
August 13th, 2010 at 8:19 am
thanks 4 the response..pro sa mga nbasa q my mga ngssabi n dpat kng mg-move ng holiday 6 months before the date of holiday..nd sbi sa news last night sbi dw ng malacañang dpa sure ung holiday sa aug.30 kya wg dw muna mgplano..panu nmn ung nka-book n activities nmn ngaung dpa sure kng my holiday o wala..nkkainis n tlga..
August 13th, 2010 at 10:08 am
@Lyn - Exactly! That is why I was prompted to lecture PNoy and air my disappointment.
I hope they don’t commit the same mistake for Aug 30. Twice is too much!
August 13th, 2010 at 8:34 pm
When is Eid’l Fitr? Thanks!
August 13th, 2010 at 10:53 pm
@Les - Holidays for Eid’l Fitr and Eid’l Adha are yet to be declared
