ADVISORY: DECLARING MONDAY, AUGUST 27, 2007 AS SPECIAL (NON-WORKING) HOLIDAY
(from: http://www.news.ops.gov.ph/)

 

Per a contact at the Office of the Executive Secretary (OES), there'll be no need to issue a proclamation for this one as it's already in RA 9492.  Confusion arose because of the law's provision regarding the issuance of a proclamation for movable holidays and last August 20's non-working day was included in Proclamation 1353.
