Talk about early planning. "ber" months have just started and we already have the official list of holidays for 2013 proclaimed. Kudos to PNoy on this one. This is just a shortlist, expect more holidays to be proclaimed next year. Specific city-holidays (i.e. Taguig day, QC day etc) are just some to add to this list of holidays depending on where you work or attend schoold.
Watch out for long weekends and plan your leaves ahead to take advantage of the holidays!
