EMBASSY TO CLOSE ON 30 NOVEMBER 2015 FOR BONIFACIO DAY


The Philippine Embassy will be closed to the public on Monday, 30 November 2015 in the observance of Bonifacio Day.

Bonifacio Day (“Kaarawan ni Bonifacio” in Filipino) is a national public holiday in the Philippines celebrating the birthday of one of the Philippines’ greatest heroes, Andrés Bonifacio. Born in 30 November 1863, Bonifacio is considered as the Father of the Philippine Revolution against Spanish colonisation. He, along with some others, started a movement known as the ‘Katipunan’ in 1892. The Katipunan was a secret revolutionary society that instigated military revolts against the Spanish colonisers.
