Is April 21, 2023 Holiday in the Philippines for Eid Al Fitr?

When is Eid Al Fitr 2023?

The Philippines also observes Islamic holidays: Eid al-Fitr (The End of Ramadan) and Eid al-Adha (The Feast of Sacrifice). When I was in Dubai working on a private construction company we were given 2 days off to celebrate Eid Al Fitr. However, if you are working on government agencies in UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia then you will be allowed to have a five to seven days celebration of the occasion.

According to TimeoutDubai.com, In 2023, the start date of Ramadan was Thursday, March 23. With the Holy Month fully underway, this means Eid al Fitr is expected to fall on Friday, April 21 – after the end of the annual fast.

Eid'l Fitr, one of the two most important Islamic celebrations, is observed by the Muslim community three days after the month-long Ramadan fasting.

The holiday is determined by the use of the lunar-based Islamic calendar through the sighting of the crescent moon in the Islamic month of Shawwal.

It was established as a regular holiday by virtue of Republic Act 9177 to honor the country's Islamic heritage.

I got a TikTok Viewer Job Offer from Skyrocket Studio Ph- Scam or Not?

Earlier today, I got a message on my Whatsapp and telling me to become a TikTok Viewer with an attractive salary and commission. The message says it's a part-time job and I can work from Home. Legit or not? So I ask the sender who he/she is and how did she manage to get my Whatsapp number. She told me she was from Skyrocket Studio Ph  and she got my number from Whatsapp, Linkedin and/or Telegram. She's not sure actually where she got my number. Then I took to Google and search for the said company and saw a legit website: "We are a fresh, dynamic group of caffeine-fueled individuals inspired to deliver results through smart solutions. We’re an entrepreneurial bunch with expertise in creative technology, digital marketing, content & business strategy, web development, design, and social media." Then the Manager told me to install Telegram and this time I am not sure if  I am chatting with two different people from Whatsapp and Telegram. The so-called manager ask me...

Pinoy Big Brother (PBB) on GTV?

"Bahay ni Kuya" is G na G? How about Pinoy Big brother moving house to GTV after It's Showtime. It's possible to happen considering that GMA Network and ABS-CBN have been making a huge TV Collab.  The very first and only Pinoy Big Brother Edition I watched from start to finish is when Ms. Tin Patrimonio and Slater Young were among the housemates. I am a Kapuso but I'm not a toxic fan that I will not watch any other show from another network when I believe it is worth watching. I remember I was still in Dubai during that PBB Edition so I have to check the schedule since Dubai is 4 hours later than the Philippines. The location of Pinoy Big Brother House used to occupy an old house; it was demolished in order to give way for the show. The house was built within 79 days in 2005 and was built by 50 men round-the-clock. The house is a large, fully air-conditioned studio with a facade that looks like an ideal middle-class house. It is located just in front of the ELJ Co...
