Public holidays adjusted or debated in Peru and Paraguay

In Peru, the official holiday for June 7, commemorating the Day of the Flag and the Battle of Arica, has led to public speculation regarding a potential long weekend. While citizens have inquired about non-working days on June 6 and June 8, there is currently no official government declaration in the Diario El Peruano confirming an extended holiday period.

In Paraguay, President Santiago Peña has issued a presidential decree to move the holiday commemorating the Battle of Boquerón. The holiday, originally scheduled for Tuesday, September 29, will now be observed on Monday, September 28.
