Napakagandang material ito para sa isang stage production!
Hi!
Nice to read about the history of the Filipino community in the Netherlands.
I'm looking for a friend who, I believed, moved to the Netherlands. Her name is Auring Galindo. That is her maiden name. Would you by any chance have met her? If so, please pass on my e-mail address to her. We were co-researchers at U.P School of Economics/IEDR in the 1960s.
Thanks a lot.

Dear ALL,
Well done history of it kind - of Filipino "Workers Abroad" esp.there in Netherlands.We are just neighbors at times,only now I got this informations,say-from the early beginning about Filipinos coming to Holand. Great in numbers of Nurses who came and then continued to USA and Canada.
While, I only arrived here in Germany in 1991,after the Gulf War I,ended my job in Saudi Arabia after 6 yrs there,then having already my small family,...we came back to Germany. Landed in small Hospital and started working as a Nurse after 3 mos.with - out full knowledge of German Langauge.But first, I knew that there were Filipino Nurses working in most Hospitals here and the early butch came in the year,1970.That suprised me until now,they remained as "KPH"-helpers or Nursing aids only and was not given the full salary as a Nurse before,but it seems to me,"we"- are happy to be here and are satisfied.
Thank you so much,as always of being informed.
Auf Wiederhoren,[ hear from you again],

This historical feature is an excellent film material. Tracing the roots of a once small Filipino community is such a hard task. "Felicitations"
Truly we, Filipinos, are globally competitive in all fields. THEN AND NOW.

Maybe its time to revisit this article by including the modern skilled migrants now populating the NXP semiconductor (founded by Philips) not only in Nijmegen but as well as in Einhoven. Now-adays skilled filipino migrants has expanded from Nurses, midwives, seamstresses, doctors to engineers.
Coming 2009 Independence day, our filipino semiconductor engrs/community are planning to visit the event in group. Getting to know other kababayans and their chosen field would be a nice thing to do and we new comers will be inspired by the stories of the batikans.
