Quoting Mel.

Oh it is
At least here in Singapore. We get both New Year's Day and Chinese New Year off.
In addition to Christmas, Good Friday, Vesak Day (birth of Buddha), Hari Raya Puasa (end of Ramadan), Hari Raya Haji (completion of the Haj), National Day, Deepavali (Indian festival of lights) and Labour Day.
And unofficially we also celebrate Easter, Thaipusam (Indian fest of triumph of good over evil), Dragon Boat Festival, Winter Solstice, Chinese Mid-autumn Fest.
We celebrate diversity here
