We all know there’s a holiday coming up on Wednesday, June 12, 2024—our country will be celebrating its 126th Independence Day. Last week, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. also declared Monday, June 17, a regular holiday, in celebration of Eid’l Adha.

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) has confirmed that the number-coding scheme will be suspended on both holidays.

Makati City has confirmed that number coding within its jurisdiction will be suspended, too, saying that it is “automatically lifted on weekends and holidays.”

In case you’ll be taking advantage of class and work suspension to go on a road trip—especially over the long weekend—you’ll be happy to know that fuel prices are also going down this week.
