Rudy Andal - Pilipino Star Ngayon

MANILA, Philippines – Idineklara ni Pangulong Aquino bilang regular holiday sa buong bansa ang pagdiriwang ng Eid’l Adha sa September 25.

“Declaring Friday, Sept. 25, as a regular holiday throughout the country in observance of Eid’l Adha (feast of sacrifice),” nakapaloob sa Proclamation 1128 na nilagdaan ni Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa Jr.

Sinabi ni Sec. Ochoa, ibinatay ang Sept. 25 sa Islamic calendar at ibinase din sa idineklara ng highest religious authority ng Saudi Arabia kaya inam­yendahan ang naunang rekomendasyon na pagdiriwang nito na Sept. 24.

“The National Commission on Muslim Affairs recommends that the observance of Eid’l Adha in the Philippines be on 25 September 2015 based on the Islamic Calendar and the declaration made by Saudi Arabia’s highest authority, thereby amending its earlier recommendation to observe the occasion on 24 September 2015.”
