Feast of Ramadhan or Eid’l Fitr is celebrated by the Muslim World for 3 days after the end of the month of fasting.
To promote cultural understanding and integration, the entire Filipino nation should have the full opportunity to join their Muslim brothers and sisters in the observance and celebration of Eid’l Fitr and in order to bring the religious and cultural significance of the Eid’l Fitr to the fore of national consciousness, the President said.
