Expression from an Idiot by birth:

Being a Bhutanese citizen, it is the sole responsibility of every Bhutanese to be able to read and write fluently in our National Language, Dzongkha. It is of utmost importance, and I think every Bhutanese or even people around the globe would agree to my statement. Having said that, we should not forget that there are major chunk of Bhutanese in remotest parts of the country who can’t speak and understand Dzongkha, our National Language. While we understand the importance of campaigning in national language in common forum for our election processes, we should also keep in mind if our messages are getting conveyed.

We can clearly differentiate family from others and consider our family as closest to us. But, have we really been great husband, great wife, great son and daughter, great father, great brother, great worker...the list goes on and on. It is a question we should ponder upon and if need be, take a step or two backwards and look back with genuineness. Face the truth; I know many of us will be forced to bow our head.
