Malacañang Palace recalled its earlier declaration for November 27 and 28, 2009 as national holidays and changed it to a regional holiday in the Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (ARMM)
By virtue of Proclamation No. 1808-A, issued last October 26, 2009, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo declared November 27 and 28 as regional holidays in ARMM in celebration of the feast of Eid'l Adha (Festival of Sacrifice or Greater Eid).
The said declaration amended Proclamation No. 1808 issued last April 12, 2009 which stated that the said Muslim festival are national holidays.
In an interview, Press Secretary Cerge Remonde explained that several members of the business community appealed to Department of Trade and Industry Secretary Peter Favila because there were already so many holidays for this month of November and having so many days off would result in a severe drop in productivity. Add to this that several companies are still making up for the losses incurred from typhoons Ondoy and Pepeng.
Meanwhile, Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said that Malacañang found out about Republic Act No. 9492 which states that the said Muslim feast is a regional holiday in ARMM. As such, they had to recall the earlier declaration.
With this, Department of Labor and Employment Secretary Marianito Roque advised the country's employers that as a result of Proclamation No. 1808-A, the pay rules for regular holidays will not apply during the said dates except in ARMM.
November 1 and 2 were declared as special non-working holidays in celebration of All Saints Day and All Souls Day. The last holiday for the month of November is Bonifacio Day, celebrated on November 30, 2009 and declared as a regular holiday.
The said recall stirred reactions among various groups, including the National Ulama Conference of the Philippines (NUCP). In an interview with NUCP Deputy Secretary General Mike Ibrahim by GMANews.tv, he said that Muslims are not confined in ARMM but are present all over the country. Sec. Gen. Ibrahim also revealed that Malacañang did not consult them when the earlier proclamation was issued and when Proc. No. 1808 was amended.
