PROCLAMATION NO. 150

DECLARING SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 2011, AS A SPECIAL (NON-WORKING) DAY THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY

WHEREAS, Saturday, April 23, 2011 falls between Good Friday and Easter Sunday;

WHEREAS, Black Saturday, falling between Good Friday and Easter Sunday, has been traditionally declared a special (non-working) day throughout the country;

WHEREAS, the observance of Holy Week is one of our people’s most cherished traditions;

WHEREAS, our people must be given the full and uninterrupted opportunity to ponder on the significance of the Holy Week and to properly observe its traditions with religious fervor, without prejudice to public interest.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, BENIGNO S. AQUINO III, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby declare Saturday, April 23, 2011, as a special (non-working) day throughout the country.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seas of the Republic of the Philippines.

Executive Secretary


April 23, Black Saturday, also happens to be the opening day of Star Cinema / M-Zet film "Pak! Pak! My Dr. Kwak!" starring 5-time Box-Office King Vic Sotto and 2007 Box-Office Queen Bea Alonzo.

And since it's a holiday, more people will be able to watch the movie, which is expected to do well in the box-office.

But of course, aside from going to the malls, watching a movie, enjoying a grand vacation or going to the beaches, first and foremost, it's important that we pray and repent first on this holiest time of the year.
