Ganito talaga pag march anu? Walang holiday?
Dapat bang hindi natin iboto ang mga senador at kanilang mga pamilya na nagtangkang hindi paimbistigahan ang C5 road controversy? May tinatago ba sila kung bakit hindi nila gustong paimbistigahan?
Dapat bang huwag nating iboto ang mga senador at mga pamilya nila na tumakbo sa eleksyon ngayon na nagtangkang i cover up ang C5 road project investigation? May inilihim ba sila tungkol dito

PRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has declared May 10, Election Day, as special non-working holiday.
Under Proclamation 2020, Arroyo said declaring May 10 (Monday) as holiday would encourage Filipinos to exercise their freedom and right to vote for the next leaders of the country.
i would like to know if last APRIL 12, Monday, is a local holiday for Muslims? or maybe specifically in Sulu?

—>>> helo, nabasa ko lang po sa labor code na yung general election day assigned by the goverment e kasama sa mga regular holidays. yun ba yung may 10? o baka naman po nabago na po ni GMA yung labor code? o kaya naman e mali lang po pagkaka intindi ko?
Dami ng problem ng Philippnes idinagdag pa ang pag-iisip ng holiday pati History binabago, ultimo birthdays ng mga heroes. Baka bumangon sila sa hukay at magreklamo e kung birthday nyo kaya baguhin matutuwa kayo? yung mga bata sa school hirap na hirap nang tandaan ang date sa History ampotpot talaga holiday na lang di pa gawing permanente tapos dagdag pa ng dagdag. Yung EDSA baka umabot ng 10 di lang birthday at kamatayan pati libing anu pa di pa kayo masaya saktuhin nyo ng 30 or 31 para 1 month na holidays. Tapos wait kayo one month ubos na investor at small companies at wala ng mareregular sa trabaho. contractual na lang. Wala na ring matututuhan estudyante kasi lagi walang pasok.
Is July 4, 2010 holiday?
Erratum in entry for: Ninoy Aquino Day (August 23, Monday nearest Aug August 23)
Correction: Info in parentheses should be (August 23, Monday nearest August 21)
Do you think Pres. Noy Aquino would maintain the exact dates for holidays? I believe he does not approve moving the dates for holiday purposes. If this is the case, then, we don’t have a holiday on August 23.
may pasok ba sa monday july26,2010?
at sa 27 din ba holiday?
How can I confirm when Ninoy Aquino Day is? I am working on our school calendar now and in the calendar provided by DepEd, Ninoy Aquino Day is on the 21st. And yet here on the net, it’s on the 23rd.
will there be classes on July 27, now that the president is new?
How true pouh na babawiin ni P-Noy ung August 23 special non-working day? Dahil indi cya pabor sa always no w0rk… Pls answer asap… Thnx
@ ronelle
Mukhang malabo statement mo na nagbayad ng 100 bilyon si erap kay bro. eddie para C5 road. eh kay Villar nga project yun eh. nagmamarunong ka lang ata eh wala ka naman artifacts.
may pasok ba sa august 23,2010 at sa august 30,2010?
PATI BA NAMAN ANG “IGLESIA NI CRISTONG TAO – DAY” AY GINAWANG HOLIDAY..
BULOK ANG ARROYO ADMINISTRATION..
I hope the present government will take into consideration the Aug. 23 declared special holiday, many people have already made vacation plans for the long weekend and are looking forward to it esp. when its already so near…They should have decided earlier.. and If they do not agree with the Holiday Economics they should start to review before the end of the year and implement Next Year! so as not to spoil the people’s vacation plans for the year…
ask ko lang if Eid’l Fitr will still be declared a holiday this 2010 and when?
how abt aug 30,2010 cancelled na rin ba as non working holiday?
ask ko lang po kong may pasok ba sa august 23 and 30. thank
buset naman dapat holiday sa august 23 naku naman si noynoy kasi
May tanung po ako ang posok po namin 9-7 from Monday to Friday .. tapos wala po kami ng saturday..
Di po dapat 9-6 lang para ma benefit ko ang Saturday holoday…
Hindi daw po sabi ng HR namnin under time daw po ako kc schedule ko daw po kc 9-7
e nasan po yung Benefit ko ng Holiday…
Tama po yung sinasabi ng kumpanya na pinapasukan ko…
bakit ang june 12/saturday inadjust sa june 14 holiday
bakit ang august 21/saturday ayaw iadjust ng august 23 para holiday pa rin
ganyan ba talaga ang Noynoy administration lahat dapat in favor sa lahi nila?
IT’S UNFAIR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MAY Sense bang magcomment sa thread na to? makakarating ba to sa kinauukulan?
Bagong Presidente bagong patakaran!
wag kang pumasok kung ayaw mo..mukha kaung holiday..hehe..sana walang pasok sa aug. 23..hehe
Wala kayang pasok bukas?
bakit ganun…naproclaim na yung mga holidays for this year2010 taz nagpalit lang ng president binago na rin pati yun…nakakasira ng plano lalo na in business matters…ang isang bagay na naideclare na hindi na dapat binabawi lalo na kung galing sa mataas…ibig sabihin lang talaga nito..WALANG STANDARD ANG GOVERNMENT!!!!
