Expression from an Idiot by birth:

What A man can do? How can A man achieve the impossible? How can A man be architect of a nation? How can A man put his own life for the nation’s sovereignty? And many more ! All the un-answered answers are what defines The Great Fourth, His Majesty the King Jigme Singye Wangchuck, the fourth king of Bhutan. November 11, 1955, a boy destined to rule Druk-yul, the land of Thunder Dragon was born to His Majesty the third king of Bhutan Jigme Dorji Wangchuck and Her Majesty Ashi Kesang Choden Wangchuck. A boy, upon whom the responsibility of guiding his people and developmental activities of the nation fell upon his shoulder at the tender age of 17, when His Majesty the third king passed away. Seventeen! When I was 17, I didn’t even know what was good for me and what was not, let alone differentiating between the two for the nation, but the young Prince did – Amazing! An IMPOSSIBLE is achieved. When the young Prince inherited the country, the country didn’t see much of the infras...

I am sick of seeing trash everywhere and worst of all seeing our people throwing trash off their cars. Even worst, seeing people just throwing their thukpa and tea plastic cups below the road and on the road after emptying the contents. What a world we live in? There would be more"EVEN WORST"...worst of all, not caring the cardboards which was used as carpet to keep your butt during the Wangs and other festivals.  If only: -        Our DOMA sellers refrain from being generous with quantity of Lime -        DOMA eaters carry small piece of re-usable cloth to smear excess Lime -        DOMA eaters don’t smear excess Lime on every available poles and pillars -        Usable trash cans were installed at every 50 meters interval in towns -        Someone empties the trash cans twice daily -      ...

In the last five years I have travelled four times to the United States of America and this time to the Columbia University, New York. The one year I missed was in 2013 where I traveled to Melbourne and New England, Australia. Every time, I travel to US or any other countries abroad, I always struggle with visa processing activities. It would be free and easy to travel if we forgo the hassle of requiring a visa, but it is a territorial marks we want to create requiring such documents to visit any country apart from which you are citizens of and I respect that. Thats not what I'm suppose to write, my point was, what an invention human beings made. A steel can fly and there are devices with which they have routes to ensure safety of all the people on board. Ground people makes sure that all engines, even the smallest of the parts, are thoroughly checked and baggages are efficiently segregated and safely transferred to next flight in which the owner boards. A transportation mechani...

Banner of the Event I received a call on 2nd August 2014 from the organizers if I shall be interested to join the second day of Youth Volunteer Walk. I didn't have a slightest idea of what it is all about, but, whatever said and done i said to myself- "let me join the group and find out what it is all about". So, i started my journey towards Dungmithang (approximately 11 kilometers from Chamkhar-Bumthang) to join the group.  The Youth Volunteer walk was initiated by the Ura Middle Secondary School in Ura, Bumthang on 1st and 2nd August 2014. About 100 students, teachers, police personals and others joined the walk from Ura on the 1st of August. Ura is about 50 kilometers from Chamkhar, Bumthang. The group spent a night at Dungmithang-Bumthang, from where I had an opportunity to take part on the second day of the program.  It was not just a 'walk' but along with the walk the group made awareness on garbage, proper hand washing techniques, better democ...

Logo of RGP Where is Panbang? the very first question I am likely to get if i mention River Guides of Panbang (RGP). My answer would be; A lovely village located in the sub-tropial belt of Bhutan nestled between Royal Manas National Park in Bhutan and Manas Tiger Reserve in India. The place is blessed with two mighty rivers of Bhutan, Mangde Chu and Drangme Chu. During the earlier phase of settlement, in the absence of permanent bridge, people traveling from Panbang where crossing Drangme Chu river on a boat like structure made by bamboo- locally known as Pan. People believe that the name of Panbang was thus coined. Elderly people from the locality has many stories to tell on how thick the bamboo forests in that area used to be densely inhabited by wild Elephants and other animals. However, with the coming of visionary well wisher from Japan, Late Dasho Nishokha in 1970s- started to transform the area for good. He was the one who divided the land equally within the local communiti...

When the Ministry of Finance- Royal Government of Bhutan, finally made a public notification on release of quota, civil servants who were eligible were happy that finally it is coming through and I have to admit that I was one of happy civil servants. I had no issues on the "Vehicle Quota Rules 2014". However, I had the difficulty to digest when I heard that there are no RULES in place for the so called "FULL QUOTA" for Honourable Members of Parliament and National Council. I feel that the whole purpose of framing rules with an intention to prevent import of two vehicles (One by using quota and one by earnings made from selling quota) is defeated. To lay my justifications on the "Defeated" words I used: with 8 lakhs quota, even if two vehicles are imported another imported vehicle will be a small hatchback, but if full quota are allowed to sell, it will lead to the import of two SUVs- everyone understands the amount of pollution made by SUVs and Hatchba...

I will need to accept that I have been listening to Shri Narendra Modi's speech in youtube since i heard his speech after he took over as the Honourable Prime Minister of India. Though, I don't understand much Hindi, but I admit that whatever i understand hits the spot right in the center. What a man, what an orator. Shri Narendra Modi on the occasion of 68th Independence Day Of India His address to Bharat on the 68th Independence day (15th August 2014) began by thanking all previous governments and his predecessors- such courtesy is rare to see in this world of jealousy and hatred. I have heard no one doing this let alone politicians and political parties. Honourable Prime Minister touched upon some small yet very important points. He touched upon the cleanliness and requiring proper and clean toilets in schools and villages. He understood the need of basic facilities which we generally tend to overlook. He placed much importance to basic issues of clean environment ...
