Malaysian Public Holidays For 2007

August 5, 2006 @ 11:20 am · By gbyeow · Filed under Reviews & Editorials


Yeah, I know this is a little early, considering that we’re only halfway through the year. However, that doesn’t stop anyone from looking ahead and planning their holidays for the coming year. Especially since next year is Visit Malaysia Year 2007. So here’s the unofficial reference for next year’s Malaysian public holidays. Give me a holler if I’ve missed out anything or if there’s a nagging mistake. Otherwise, have a good time planning your year ahead and happy holidays.

Find your state and crossreference with the table below. The alphabet representation of the state is following the carplate prefix for that state, so you can skip this if you know what’s yours.

  • Peninsular Malaysia
    • Wilayah Persekutuan / Federal Territory
      • W - Kuala Lumpur
      • L - Labuan
      • PJ - Putra Jaya (not really the actual plate number prefix)
    • A - Perak
    • B - Selangor
    • C - Pahang
    • D - Kelantan
    • J - Johor
    • K - Kedah
    • M - Malacca
    • N - Negri Sembilan
    • P - Penang
    • R - Perlis
    • T - Terengganu
  • West Malaysia
    • Q - Sarawah
    • S - Sabah

    What? Kelantan, Johor, Kedah, Perlis and Terengganu don’t get holiday on New Years day ah??? What a rip-off state! Lousy states to live in!!

    Well, as it turns out, they have the most number of holidays, between 17 and 19 days, while Wilayah has the least with 15 days. So you decide which is worse. Haha.

    Erm, I think Kelantan and Terengganu only have one day holiday for CNY. Not too sure about Kedah and Perlis.
