By Alfonso T. Ruda

 DIPOLOG CITY - Malacanang has declared June 6, 2014 as a special non-working holiday in the province of Zamboanga del Norte in commemoration of the province’s 62nd founding anniversary.

 The palace has issued Proclamation No. 778, series of 2014, dated May 28, 2014, declaring June 6, 2014 as a Special (Non-Working) Day in the province of Zamboanga del Norte to give its people of ample opportunity to celebrate and participate in all activities to be undertaken during the celebration.

 Meanwhile, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) has reminded employers to observe the appropriate salary to be given to their employees who will be reporting during the said date.

 It could be recalled that Zamboanga del Norte was carved out of the defunct Zamboanga Province on June 6, 1952. 

 The provincial government has also lined a number of activities to give meaning and color to the province’s founding anniversary such as agro-trade fair, job fair, basketball tournament, volley tournament, rodeo and many others.
