MANILA, Philippines — Malacañang has declared October 24 as a special non-working holiday in Angeles City, Pampanga province.
According to Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa Jr., the declaration was made in order for the city’s residents to participate in the celebration of Kuliat Festival (Fiestang Kuliat) and the “Tigtigan Terakan Keng Dalan,” a street singing and dancing festival.
The festivities commemorate Angeles City’s “resiliency and dynamism” during the aftermath of the 1991 Mt. Pinatubo eruption.
