Jam Packed Long Weekend
The last weekend before school starts is a long one as the legal non-working Philippine Independence day was moved to June 9 from June 12 in order to compress the working day to a continuous work week. This could have attract mixed opinion from the practical and traditional people but I guess Filipinos have grown accustomed to this practice by the current government.
I personally favor this move for two reasons: 1) it does not break the working momentum, and 2) you can go on vacation because of the long weekend. But I guess the parent’s main concern this week is to complete their kids’ school supplies and uniforms. Expect traffics and a jam packed mall with this.
Anyway, enjoy going back to school dear students.
