    To those planning on long weekends

    April 30 a working day, May 1 a holiday -- Palace

    INQUIRER.net

    Posted date: April 24, 2007

    MANILA, Philippines -- Monday, April 30, will be a regular working day while Labor Day, May 1, will be a non-working holiday, the Office of the Executive Secretary said Tuesday.

    Malacaņang has adopted the recommendation of Labor Secretary Arturo Brion to keep Labor Day on Tuesday because moving it to April 30 will be disadvantageous to both business and the workers, especially to daily wage earners.

    To give workers a long weekend, Malacaņang usually declares as non-working holiday the day that is in between the weekend and the official holiday.

    But Brion said this would disrupt the schedules of businesses and would affect daily wage earners.

    May 1 is not among the possible holidays cited in Proclamation 1211 released by Malacaņang in January, which includes declaring April 7, a Saturday a special non-working holiday, having been sandwiched between Good Friday and Easter Sunday; June 11, a Monday, might be declared a non-working holiday while June 12, Tuesday, Independence Day, might be declared a working day; November 2, Friday, might also be declared a special non-working day following for the observance of All Saints Day on November 1; December 24, Monday, to be declared a special non-working day, being sandwiched by the weekend and Christmas Day, a regular holiday.

    Hello to tsikot community,
    Hindi dapat mag holiday ang April 30 dahil malaki ang ang mawawala sa businessmen, ang mga bangko sarado until May 1, marami na tayong holiday, wag na sana dagdagan.

    Last february I was arguing with a handful of my co-workers that APril 30 is a working day. Though im outnumbered I held my ground and I am correct. After learning this I cant help but say that "I told you so". I can see dismay plastered all over their faces.

    spiderman day hehehe

    that's a bummer for me. looking forward for a holiday just to watch a movie.

    anyway, i'll just be bringing my work home tom and tuesday, hoping that I can finish before May 10. then Subic, Shanghai and Bora 'til the end of the month for me, hopefully.
