When are the public holiday dates for chinese new year 2008?
The public holiday dates WERE the 7th, 8th and 9th of February ushering in the Year of the Rat, the smallest of the animals, but it clung to the tail of the biggest…the Ox, who then threw it to the front of the queue whereby Buddha made it the first in the zodiac of 12 yearly cycles. However festivities continue for a further 2 weeks and so will eventually finish on the 23rd February with a giant firework show as well as many other family goodies.
