President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has declared Thursday, January 2, 2025, as a Government holiday. The announcement was made by the President’s Office this evening.
The decision aims to provide Government employees with an uninterrupted break by extending the New Year holiday. Since January 1, 2025, a public holiday, falls on a Wednesday, the additional holiday on Thursday will allow for a continuous period of rest leading into the weekend.
This initiative reflects the administration’s efforts to enhance employee well-being by offering a longer period of relaxation during the New Year celebrations.
