Chieftain's Welcome

Welcome to the website of the Manila St. Andrew's Society. 

We are a comparatively small organization but renown for hosting some of the liveliest events on the Manila social calendar!

Annually, we host a St Andrew's Ball each November followed by a Burns Supper in January. The rest of the year sees a mix of less formal events that can include whisky tastings, golf matches, car treasure hunts and the occasional ceilidh!

Please feel free to get in touch, join up and get involved. The membership forms and committee members details are all to be found at this site or write directly to manilastandrew@yahoo.com

Sadly, the Society's Honourary Patron, Peter Beckingham, has now left the Philippines after his time here as the British Ambassador. I would like to thank Peter for all his efforts on behalf of the Society, it's events and community work. We wish you, and Jill, all the best for the future.

More happily, I am delighted that the current EU Ambassador to the Philippines, Alistair MacDonald, has agreed to accept our offer for him to take on this role....welcome and thank you, Alistair.  

Yours aye,

Hamish A. Moore
Chieftain
