* The following Monday will be a public holiday<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0 The date, 15 November 2009, for Deepavali needs to be checked against the Indian Almanacs when they become available towards the end of 2008. Should there be a change in date, the Ministry of Manpower will announce it towards the end of 2008.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The list of public holidays for 2009 is available through the following channels:<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0The Ministry of Manpower’s website<\/a> and<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0The Ministry of Manpower’s Interactive Voice Response System at telephone number (65) 6438 5122 to request a faxed copy of the list of public holidays.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nHere is the calendar that Straits Times made. A bit small.<\/p>\n

\"2009\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If you look hard enough, you can see some blue boxes. This indicate that you have to take leave during this period to enjoy the\u00a0 long extended holiday.<\/p>\n

BTW, in the Straits Time comment, it stated that the date for Deepavali is wrong. It should be in 17th October 2009. True?<\/p>\n
