Monday, 4 May 2015 is a holiday in the Dominican Republic, in celebration of Labor Day or International Workers’ Day. While major malls and businesses catering to tourists in beach and mountain resorts will be open, most other offices and businesses will be taking the day off. Many will make it a long weekend starting on Friday. As is customary, the DR1 daily news digest will not be published on the holiday. News over the weekend will be compiled for the Tuesday, 5 May news digest. Any breaking news stories can be covered in the DR1 Forums that are open 24/7.
