A Self-Made Woman

Della Hariti is now one of the richest women in the Philippines, which is not at all bad for a person who was born into a large poor family on a very small island. Mrs. Hariti runs a business of her own, importing machinery from North and South America and selling it all over the country. She employs about two hundred people and lives in a big villa on a nice green island not far from the one where Manila, the capital of the country, is situated.

Della Hariti is considered to be a self-made woman who has built her business up from nothing through her own hard work. She comes from a very poor family and has ten younger brothers and sisters. Della’s parents died when she was sixteen and she had to go out to work to support her family. She first worked as a waitress in small cafés and fast food restaurants, then started selling ice-cream and pizza. About two years later she began travel-ling around the islands selling different things to people and slowly realized what kind of products different mar-kets wanted, and she started making contacts. When she was twenty-two, she moved to Manila to set up her own business — selling different equipment for boats, since there is a huge market for that: the country consists of lots of small and big islands.

She had to work really hard, and more than often she didn’t have enough money to make her business go, but fortunately she had a few friends in high places who helped her a lot. At last time came when business was booming and she could finally afford to get married and have children. But that wasn’t the end of the story.

She had to face some other problems typical of any business: she had to pay taxes and wage bills, meet deadlines, deal with officials and employees. Besides, the past years hadn’t been stable, they had had high inflation and the value of their local currency had dropped drastic-ally. That didn’t bring much money.

Anyway, nowadays she is a wealthy woman with a lov-ing husband and two lovely daughters.
