[Title] => Earning the Right to be Here
[Summary] => At 38, Annemarie Durbin already heads the longest established foreign bank in the Philippines.

Anyone who has heard the crack of a hockey stick against a hard rubber ball–or the occasional sound of wood on bone–will appreciate that most challenges pale in comparison. "Field hockey is not as rough-and-tumble as you think. I used to play football," she says.
