National, Official and Non-working Holidays Philippines 2012
National, Official and Non-working Holidays in the Philippines 2012
In general, providing a fixed list of holiday dates is difficult because most of the 2012 regular holidays and nationwide special holidays in the Philippines are movable, as provided under Republic Act 9492 (an Act rationalizing the celebration of national holidays). For these movable holidays, the President is tasked by law to issue a Proclamation, at least 6 months prior to a movable holiday, fixing the specific date of that non-working day.
