Omoe from the Bijlmer (English)

In the Bijlmer (Amsterdam), everyone knows Omoe and Omoe knows everybody. Listen to the fascinating story of Mr Lee (Omoe), who lived in Suriname coming from China, via Hong Kong. He came to the Netherlands at the time of Suriname's independence in 1975 to open the Bijlmer's first Toko. Toko Omoe is a household name in the neighbourhood and just one of many examples of pioneering entrepreneurs. It is the combination of migration and entrepreneurship that drives this endless source of flexibility, stamina and love. See, smell and taste a piece of living world history.
