Sources: La Prensa and Panama public holidays. Earlier this week, Panama's Secretary of State for Communication announced that the upcoming 2008 Labour Day public holiday would be observed on its traditional set date of May 1st. The reason for this clarification is that, as per the Ley 70 de diciembre de 2007 (see our post of December 30), the public holidays of January 9 and November 28 are automatically moved to the nearest Monday, if their set fixed date falls in the middle of the week, but other public holidays, including May 1st, may be moved in the same manner at the discretion of the President.
