The annual ribbon-cutting ceremony marks the moment when special efforts are recognised with a royal honour. Around the birthday of His Majesty the King, concerned Dutch nationals receive an appointment to the Order of the Dutch Lion or the Order of Orange-Nassau.

This year too, several members of the Royal Netherlands Society of Engineers (KIVI) were decorated on 24 April. We are proud of their contribution and congratulate:

  • Mr ir. bc. J.A. Melkert - 'Officier in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau';
  • Mr. ir. F. Bosman - 'Lid in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau';
  • Mr ir. P.H.M. Rooijmans - 'Lid in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau'. (photo below)
