Getting a Royal Distinction is a sign of gratitude to a
a person who has worked for the welfare of other citizens, for his neighbourhood, for his culture, for nature and for animals, for social groups or for one or more organisations that needed or need an extra boost to continue. With a royal distinction awarded each year on the birthday of His Majesty King William
Alexander is awarded, this effort and commitment is appreciated.
President Nolly Oleana addressed the recipients of a Royal Decoration last Wednesday: “One by one you are the silent force that acts as fuel and catalyst for our socio-social developments.
Without your commitment, willpower and a good dose of perseverance, Bonaire would be a different place.
The recipients are: Glenn Albertina for his contribution to the world of sport; Richenel Anthony, a talented musician active in various musical groups; Daniel van Arneman who shares his musical experience in free lessons with young adults; Elsmarie Beukenboom for her commitment to environmental management and reforestation
