Indonesia public holidays are largely made of religious festivals, such as Hindu’s Hari Raya Nyepi or Christian’s Good Friday. Expectedly, for a country with Mosleem-majority population, there are more public holidays for Islamic festivals.
Other public holidays include international holidays such as New Year day, or national holidays such as Hari Proklamasi Kemerdekaan R.I. Below is the list of Indonesian public holidays of 2011.
These public holidays are celebrated throughout Indonesia, including Jakarta, Medan, Batam, Surabaya, and other parts of Indonesia.
