On April 30th, Queen’s day , the Dutch took over the party-organising torch. Queen’s day in Holland is the official day celebrating the queen’s birthday: the whole country takes on the official ‘orange’ colour (the royal family’s name is Orange) and there’s beer, food, music and mild chaos. The same formula was taken for the IMDutch party. The terrace, MBAers and partners were dressed in orange. There was a buffet of Dutch/ Indonesian food, beer, music and even some Dutch stormy weather. Despite the MBAs having to get back to class after, everyone seemed to be able to relax a while…with thanks to the extended Dutch delegation, helpers and sponsors: Heineken, Philips and Shell. ■ Bryony Jansen (Holland)
