today is holiday for my country

Dear friend, I would like to know on what reason it is holiday, for us it is not a holiday here in India. At times some holidays are really worthy for me as it helpds lots of other personal things to be completed or done. We all need rest and relaxation and I feel holidays are more suitable for that.

If it's a holiday in my country,there is no work or classes.

Well in Greece we have 3-4 Holliday's yearly except the Christmas and Easter. The National holidays are on the 28th of October is the anniversary of "No" (In memory of Greek WWII victims) and on the 25th of March is in the memory of the start of the revolution against Turkey back in the 1821 which ended with the liberation of Greece and finally on 17th of November is in the memory of Polytechnio victims against Chounta. Despite that there are other holidays like on the 15th of March is the holiday of Saint Achilles who is the "protector" saint of my hometown, Larissa but it's only local for my hometown and not national. Also schools don't work on the Three Hierarchs memorial.

Yes. Today's holiday. I'm glad, because i not need to take school. Because, I am going to the hospital, I felt relieved, with the holiday.

hi there, that is good that it is a holiday there you had a free day to just rest, relax and just enjoy your time here on mylot. enjoy the rest of the weekend friend. happy Mylotting

Indonesia decided to recognize holidays of all different faiths that exist there. Now I think even Chinese New Year is considered public holiday there. Today is Hindu's holiday, and there is Waisak holiday for Budhist also. It's an easily acceptable government's decision since it means more time off. A nice change at a place where anything its government does is usually met with people's displeasure.

why is it a holiday in your country? what's the deal? it is not a holy day here in the Philippines and well, if its holidays, usually internets become slower because many people are connected. hehe

I did't notice it was a holiday. If there's a national holiday on Thursday, many flights are fully booked. The flight to Kendari from Jakarta was also full. So, I decided to stay at home. Going any where really costs a lot of money now.

That's good for you, timely for rest. When it comes to public holiday, that's the best time to be resting at home. 3 days ago was a friday in singapore, and there's no holiday until 6th april, Good friday. Philippines is a big country and needed time to travel, thus with this long holiday, it's the best time to reunite with family members. Take a good rest for the long holidays and you will feel fresher for your online activities.

Yesterday was declared a special non-working holiday in our province of Cavite, Philippines where I'm settled. It's Emilio Aguinaldo day, he was our first official president who was born and raised in Cavite. My husband had an overtime yesterday because of some deadlines to do in the office. It's just a normal day to me *wink! Just at home taming the kids *LOL

I am Italian. Which is why, in addition to Religious holidays, in my country we also have these vacation day: January 1: New Year April 25: Feast of Liberation May 1: Labor Day June 2: Feast of the Italian Republic June 24: S.G. Battista, the patron saint of my city (Genova) August 15: Ferragosto day called All others, such as Religious: Christmas, S. Stephen, etc., do not list because in most countries, already know when they arrive.

we don't have holiday today. It's only in your country. I guess we have different holidays in every country.

Is it only in Bali that Hari Raya Nyepi declared a public holiday? It is always wonderful to have public holidays - I don't mind to have as many as the law provides. I think that My country, Malaysia, is one of the countries that has the most public holidays in the world. Sometimes if there is a success in any sports, the government here would also declare a special holiday.
