The 3-day long weekend holiday is over, when will the next long weekend holiday fall?
The new Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Anwar has fulfilled his promise to make November 28 a special holiday, giving working people an extra day off, which has created a long weekend holiday. The next long weekend holiday will fall on Christmas Day, December 25.
In 2022, Christmas Day falls on Sunday, December 25, so Monday, December 26, will be a make-up holiday. If you add the Saturday, December 24 vacation, it will be a 3-day long weekend.
However, it is important to note that since Sunday is not a weekly vacation in Johor, Terengganu, Kelantan and Kedah, these 4 states will not be able to enjoy a compensatory holiday on Monday, December 26.
In addition, Selangor will have a compensatory holiday on Monday, December 12, as December 11 falls on a Sunday, the birth anniversary of the Sultan of Selangor. If we add the weekly vacation on Saturday, December 10, this will also create a 3-day long weekend holiday. However, this long weekend holiday is only applicable to Selangor.
It is worth mentioning in particular that New Year’s Day falls on a Sunday, January 1, 2023, so January 2 (Monday) will be a compensatory holiday. If you add Saturday, December 31, this will also be a long weekend holiday.
