I spent the best 21 years of my life in the Netherlands. I raised my family there. I was assigned there as Analyst for the Philippine National Bank. I left Holland in the year 2000 as head of the European network of PNB overseas offices. Munting Nayon was the news medium I totally supported. I am quite pleased Eddie Flores is reviving it again.
