    MANILA, Philippines -- President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has designated a special day for the Iglesia ni Cristo, a church denomination often approached by politicians seeking its so-called bloc support in elections.

    Arroyo declared July 27 as “Iglesia ni Cristo Day,” a non-working holiday commemorating the founding anniversary of the sect.

    “President Arroyo wishes to congratulate in advance the INC, at present under the stewardship of Executive Minister Eraño Manalo and Deputy Executive Minister Eduardo Manalo, on this year’s landmark anniversary,” Malacañang said in a statement.

    “Likewise, the President wishes to thank the INC for the very active and significant roles its leaders and members have always played not only in the spiritual and moral formation of our people over the past several decades, but in nation-building as well,” the Palace said.

    Most politicians lack the spine NOT to suck up to the INC.

    Sigh.

    its not lack of spine. it's courting a big block of voters for the next election to vote for the administration candidates.

    *shadow,

    still does not makes 100% to declare it holiday (Catholic's Christmas, Holy Week and All Saints Day) and ordinary people don't cry of unproductive days, but on the contrary businesses do.

    same goes with annual non working holiday of Muslim's Eid El fiter they are not majority either.

    The thing is, to be fair it does not count whether you are majority or not.
