Holy Week: Adjusted Mall Hours

Known to be the country with the biggest Christian community in Asia, the Philippines is now getting ready to observe the Holy Week this upcoming Lenten Season.

This year, Holy Week will start on April 14 which is the Palm Sunday and will last until April 20 also known as Black Saturday. Then on April 21, Easter Sunday will be celebrated.

In line with this, the Government already declared that April 18 (Maundy Thursday) to April 19 (Good Friday) will be regular holidays while April 20 (Black Saturday) will be a special non-working holiday.
