  • May in the Far East Asian Culture Club 5/13/2021 China
    May in the Far East Asian Culture Club 5/13/2021 China May 1 Labor Day 劳动节 Láodòng jié Labor Day China has several public holidays of national character. These holidays include 1 May - Labor Day. Until 2008, this holiday was celebrated for seven days, however later the Chinese government decided to reduce the number of off-days to three in favor of other traditional Chinese holidays. The history of International Workers' Day in China started in 1919, when the intelligentsia initiated insurgencies in Shanghai. Later, in 1920, Beijing and Shanghai held the first-ever demonstration in honor of all workers. Officially, this holiday was established and approved by the Chinese government in 1949. During the “cultural revolution” May Day in China was considered, almost the most important holiday in the country. Amplitudinous rallies and demonstrations across China were organized to celebrate this Day. The holiday was more of a political character. However, at the end of XX century, the situation changed dramatically. Today Labor Day in China is a sort of a cheerful family holiday. During these three days of holidays, the Chinese go to the country, meet friends, and attend solemn events. Many people visit theaters and exhibitions. The streets of the Chinese cities hold demonstrations and performances. May Day holidays is the best time to visit China, because at this period of year, the government gives permission for discounts. Not only can you visit the main attractions of the country at discounted prices, but also to go shopping. May 4 Youth Day In the People's Republic of China, Youth Day celebrated on May 4.

  • 1.Constitutional
    MAJOR LEGISLATION & TREATIES Jan.-Dec., 2005 1. Constitutional Law A Partial Amendment to the National Holiday Act Law No. 43, May 20, 2005 (Effective on January I , 2007). B ackgroud : In the 162nd session of the Diet, on May 13, 2005, the House of Councilors passed a bill partially amending the National Holiday Act by a vote of 202 to 14, which had been approved in advance by the House of Representatives on April 5, 2005. In both Houses there was no sub- stantive deliberation. The main purpose of the amendments is to replace the current name of a national holiday, "Green Day" (Midori no hi) on April 29 with "Showa Day," and "People's Day" (Kokumin no Kyuujitsu) with "Green Day" on May 4. April 29 is the birthday of Emperor Hirohito and "Showa" is the official name for Hirohito's reign, which lasted from 1926 to 1989. Following his death on January 7, 1 989, the then Diet members needed to amend the National Holiday Act concerning the holiday which formally celebrated Hirohito's birthday, and some members insisted 72 WASEDA BULLETIN OF COMPARATIVE LAW Vol. 25 that the name of the holiday should have to do with Emperor Showa, for example "Showa Memorial Day." But social circumstances both within and outside Japan impeded the attempt, and as a result Emperor Hirohito's Birthday was renamed Green Day, an oblique reference to his passion for plants, but on which avoided using his name. At the same time, Heisei Emperor Akihito's birthday, December 23, became a new national holiday (Law No.

  • 2020 Public Holidays in Japan
    2020 Public Holidays in Japan When traveling, tourist crowds are part of the equation. But sometimes the crowds are a lil’ bit busier than normal… Because of local public holidays! The most important public holiday period to know about is Golden Week, which runs from the end of April to the start of May. Check out the table below for more information! In 2020, Tokyo is hosting the Summer Olympics. If you’re planning a visit to Japan this year (and you’re not keen on the Olympics) this is something to be careful of! Flights will cost more and there will be a higher demand for accommodation. In Japan, public holidays usually mean extra busy long weekends, so we’ve outlined the busy period too. The column titled “Date” is the date of the actual public holiday. The column titled “Long Weekend” is the estimated long weekend. Public Holiday Date Long Weekend January New Years Day 1st January Coming of Age Day 13th January 11th - 13th January February Foundation Day 11th February 8th - 11th February March Vernal Equinox Day 20th March 20th - 22nd March April + May Showa Day 29th April These public holidays are combined to form what is Constitution Memorial Day 3rd May known as Golden Week.
