Malacañang says work in gov't offices (national and local), classes in ALL public schools and universities will be suspended on Sept. 21

[Barry Gutierrez @barrygutierrez3]

I'll suspend work and classes, but it's not a holiday, has the same logic as, I'll bury Marcos in the Heroes' Cemetery, but he's not a hero.
