Peasants' Day
# Peasants' Day

Peasants' Day (Burmese: တောင်သူလယ်သမားနေ့) is a public holiday in Myanmar, marking the 1962 Burmese coup d'état. In 1965, the Union Revolutionary Council designated the day as a gazetted holiday, and commemorates the contributions of farmers. Before the change, Peasants' Day was observed on 1 January.
