            Bug ID: 362186
           Summary: not all general holidays is considered public holidays
                    in holidays file in Hong Kong
           Product: kholidays
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

In the current holidays file, only the "statutory holidays" are considered as
public holidays in Hong Kong, but not other remaining generals. There are 17
general holidays each year, but only 12 statutory holiday.

General holidays in Hong Kong are the holidays where banks, and businesses in
general, do not operate. These are shown in red on calendars. They are called
"public holidays" in local usage.

Statutory holidays are the holidays where employee, by law, is entitled to take
a leave. If the employer does really require the employee to work on those
holidays, the employer must give a make-up holiday within 60 days. However, no
such requirement exists for other holidays not in the list of statutory
holidays, which are:
- Buddha's Birthday
- Easter (Friday, Saturday and Monday)
- Boxing Day
In addition, the statutory holiday on Christmas may be optionally replaced by
winter solstice.

However, these 5 holidays are not listed as public holidays in the holidays
file, which I think it is not appropriate. People in Hong Kong is expected to
see all 17 general holidays as public holidays, consistent with local usage.

Reproducible: Always

Kong SAR)
