MANILA, Philippines — The Office of the Executive Secretary (OES) on Thursday denied that November 3 was declared a holiday.
The OES added that October 31 is likewise not a holiday, debunking circulating fake news that the Palace had suspended work that day.
“Fake news,” said Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin in a brief message to reporters.
Monday, October 30 was declared a holiday for the barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan elections, while Wednesday, November 1, is All Saints’ Day and Thursday, November 2, is All Souls’ Day.
October 31 falls on a Tuesday, and November 3 on a Friday.
