MANILA, Philippines – Filipinos will have another long weekend during this year’s holiday season after President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. declared December 26, 2022 – the day after Christmas – a special non-working day.
Malacañang on Thursday, December 22, released Proclamation No. 115 as signed by Marcos.
The proclamation states that a “longer weekend will encourage families to get together and strengthen their relationship towards a more productive environment, and will promote domestic tourism.”
Marcos earlier declared January 2, 2023 as a special non-working day through Proclamation 90 “in consideration of the Filipino tradition of visiting relatives and spending time with their families.”
