Savor the coming "holidays" for the rest of 2003 because next year, the following public holidays will be forfeited:
1. April 9, Bataan Day falls on Good Friday
2. May 1, Labor Day falls on a Saturday
3. June 12, Independence Day falls on a Saturday
4. August 21, Ninoy Aquino Day falls on a Saturday
5. Christmas Day falls on a Saturday
6. New Year's Day (Jan. 1, 2005) falls on a Saturday
But don't lose hope!
