In Selangor, Dec 11 is a public holiday.
Selangor has two long weekend holidays in December, one of which is a statutory public holiday on December 11.
The Sultan of Selangor celebrates his birthday on December 11 (Sunday). The Sultan of Selangor’s birthday is a statutory holiday in Selangor, and employers are required to give their employees a day off. If the employee is required to work on the same day as the employer, the employee must be compensated or paid.
According to the Cabinet’s 2022 Malaysian public holiday schedule, Selangor has two long weekend holidays in December. Long weekend holidays are public holidays plus weekends or supplementary holidays, for a total of at least three days off.
The Sultan of Selangor celebrates his birthday on December 11 (Sunday). Because the holiday falls on a Sunday, employees will be given the day off on Monday, December 12th. If December 10 (Saturday) is included, this becomes a three-day holiday.
Christmas Day (December 25th) is a national public holiday, so Selangor will be closed on this day as well. Because Christmas falls on a Sunday this year, there will be a holiday on Monday, December 26. This has a total of three days of long weekend holidays, including December 24th (Saturday).
Also, because January 1, 2023 is a Sunday, January 2 is a compensatory holiday. As a result, Selangor will be able to enjoy a three-day long weekend from December 31, 2022 to January 2, 2023.
