Malaysia (Cuti!) Public Holidays 2011
Dec
27
It’s the end of the year, have you guys planned your leave yet? Looking at the holidays some suggested dates to take leave are :
- 31 Jan (Mon) & 2 Feb (Wed) to get 1 week off (for KL)
- 14 Jan & 16 May (Mon) to get a long, 4-day weekend
Of course this is subject to which public holiday your company observes or gives in-lieu. Here’s a list of holidays which I split up by KL/Selangor and other States. Feel free to copy paste any of the tables below!
