AJ Bolando - Pilipino Star Ngayon

MANILA, Philippines – Inilabas na ng Palasyo ngayong Lunes ang mga holidays para sa taong 2014.

Sa bisa ng Proclamation No. 655 ni Pangulong Benigno Aquino III ay 20 araw ang idineklarang holiday alinsunod sa pag-amyenda ng Republic Act (RA) No. 9492 (Hulyo 2007) sa Section 26, Chapter 7, Book I of Executive Order (EO) No. 292, o mas kilala sa tawag na Administrative Code of 1987.

Bukod sa mga regular holiday ay isinama ni Aquino ang ang paggunita ng Spring festival ng mga Chinese o mas kilala sa tawag na Chinese New Year sa Enero 31, 2014 bilang special (non-working) holiday.

“The Chinese New Year, which is one of the most revered and festive events celebrated not only in China but also in the Philippines by both Chinese-Filipinos and ordinary Filipinos as well; and the joint celebration is a manifestation of our solidarity with our Chinese-Filipino brethren who have been part of our lives in many respects as a country and as a people,” nakasaad sa proklamasyon ng palasyo.

Maituturing na long weekend ang semana santa kung saan pumatak sa Abril 17 at 18 ang Huwebes Santo at Biyernes Santo. Idineklara rin ni Aquino ang Abril 19, Sabado, bilang special (non-working) holiday.

Ginawa rin special (non-working) holiday ng Palasyo ang Disyembre 24 at Disyembre 26 upang pagitnaan ang Pasko, upang maging limang araw na walang pasok kasama ang Sabado at Linggo.

Isinama rin ni Aquino sa mga holiday ang Eid’l Fitr at Eidul Adha ng mga Muslim ngunit wala pang tiyak na araw ito.

“The proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid’l Fitr and Eidul Adha shall hereafter be issued after the approximate dates of the Islamic holidays have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar (Hijra) or the lunar calendar, or upon Islamic astronomical calculations, whichever is possible or convenient,” sabi ng Palasyo.

“To this end, the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) shall inform the Office of the President on which days the holidays shall respectively fall,” dagdag nila.
