By the way, if you're fascinated by the TIME article on #niksen and the NYT article on #dropping, I can very much recommend @StuffDutchLike. Humorous, if merciless, insights into the Dutch psyche that are painfully spot on.

Five years ago, flight #MH17 was shot down. Today, the Kingdom of the Netherlands commemorates the 298 victims who lost their lives that tragic day with remembrance ceremonies in the Netherlands and around the world. Our thoughts are with the victims’ families. (photo: ANP)

The Netherlands will issue its first green government bonds, expecting to be the first triple A-rated. Dutch Finance Minister Wopke Hoekstra said 3.5 to 5 billion euros could qualify for infra like rail and sustainable energy. cnb.cx/2RrFBCX #ClimateFinance #greenbonds

The Dutch have one of the lowest rates of childhood obesity in the EU. What could possibly be the cause? Is it a) chocolate sprinkles for breakfast? Or b) street design that lets kids walk, cycle and play independently (like we all used to do before traffic took over)? Hmmmm
