Three Filipino women in the Netherlands received royal honors for their major contributions to the Dutch society. Koninklijke onderscheidingen (royal honors) are awarded annually with around 3,500 appointments to the Order of Orange-Nassau—one of the royal house orders that falls under the full jurisdiction of King Willem Alexander (See Philstar.com for story).
