* Hong Kong Government is very generous when it comes to official holidays. Since the third day of Lunar New Year falls on a Sunday in 2018, Hong Kong Government decided to designate the following day (the fourth day of Lunar New Year) as general holiday substitution. In addition, since Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Establishment Day also falls on a Sunday in 2018, the following day will be designated as a general holiday as substitution. |
