December 1, 26 and 29 have been declared nonworking holidays by Malacañang in compliance with Republic Act (RA) 9492, which rationalizes the celebration of national holidays.
RA 9492, dated July 24, 2007, provides that with the exception of religious holidays, all other holidays are moved to the nearest Monday unless otherwise modified by law, order or proclamation.
Since Bonifacio Day, celebrated on November 30, falls this year on a Sunday, the special day will be observed on the nearest Monday, or December 1.
Additional special nonworking days to be observed this year are on the day after Christmas, December 26, since it is between Thursday and Saturday; and December 29, 2008, a Monday.
Other holidays in December are:
December 25 – Christmas Day
December 30 – Rizal Day
December 31
