Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, January 4) — The City of Manila on Wednesday suspended classes and government work on Jan. 9 to give way for this year’s feast of the Black Nazarene.

“In order not to unduly crowd the city for purposes not specific to 09 January 2023 religious activities for the Feast of the Black Nazarene, it is essential that work in the city government offices be suspended,” read Executive Order No. 1 issued by Mayor Honey Lacuna-Pangan.
