About holidays in Singapore

Singapore's holidays mix Chinese, Malay, Indian and Christian calendars. Hari Raya Puasa and Hari Raya Haji follow the Islamic calendar, and Deepavali the Hindu one; the Ministry of Manpower publishes each year's dates in advance. A holiday on a Sunday gives the next Monday off.
