Most businesses should be closed, and shops should still be open, so hopefully it will have a good effect on the economy.
But I don't like this trend of playing around with the days...
 
1 less leave day that I have to take in December then...
 
Just means I have to use 1 less day of leave for that period....
 
WTF. This saturday is a public holiday, so technically we only getting 10. Where is this day we get back!?!?!? UNFAIR
 
Yes, this appears on multiple news links, and not one of those stupid PDF's saying "Haha April Fools"
 
Did Zuma forget about the extra Public Holiday on 3 August, the date of the 2016 Municipal Elections. If you count the days, it's already 12 days, now with the 27th December it will be 13 days.

21 March: Human Rights Day
25 March: Good Friday*
28 March: Family Day*
27 April: Freedom Day
1 May: Workers Day (Sunday)

Hmmm, we are still being taken for a ride. The 27th was anyway suppose to be a public holiday?

lol Since when did Zuma count? Have you heard him try?:D
 
So if you take leave from 16 Dec to 2 Jan, you will have 18 days not working for 8 days of leave.
