January 21 is Holiday in US Embassy in Manila Philippines. The US embassy Twitter account tweeted, that the US Embassy Manila and its affiliated offices will be closed to the public on Monday, January 21, for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
In the United States, King’s birthday and his enduring legacy are celebrated as a federal holiday each year on the third Monday in January. Many ceremonies and remembrances occur each year on January 15 as well. Some involve speeches, prayers and hymns. Others, perhaps like this scene above, are a few minutes of quiet contemplation snatched from a busy day according to http://iipdigital.usembassy.gov.
