MANILA, Philippines — November 3 is not a holiday or a non-working day, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin said on Thursday.

Bersamin debunked circulating information saying that Malacañang  suspended work on the day after All Souls' Day. 

“Fake news,” Bersamin said.

Malacañang  on Tuesday said that it has no intentions of declaring October 31 as a holiday.

Last October 11, President Ferinand Marcos Jr. declared October 30 as a special non-working day for the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections. — with reports from Alexis Romero
