Time For a Battle

I have sensed something unusual on the public notice posted on January 1 on PMO's Page. It stated PM Dr. Lotay Tshering will address the nation LIVE from Gelephu on March 2, and urged everyone to closely follow the address on BBS at 9:00 am. 

I've felt a great authority in the lines and expected some change in the current COVID thing -plan, protocol and way forward. Listening to the ever eloquent voice of Dr. Lotay was worth my wait. I got the bull eye with my little instinct. 

Finally, Dr. Lotay has politely dropped the ball in the hands of an individual citizen. There is nothing but to be self-cautious beyond wearing face masks and washing hands to protect our family and community. 


Since the break of this pandemic, His Majesty has been guarding the nation in his might by risking his life and Royal Comfort. Our king did his best without leaving a single subject untouched. He toured on foot to the remotest part of the country to check the difficulties common people face on a daily basis and made everything possible through Royal kidu and even made a supply of daily commodities. His Majesty lives by example but we have failed to keep up the royal vision of our beloved king and there is nothing disheartening than the failed promise.

 

Doctor's run government has done their part well. They did –beyond the call of their mandates. Going by the Covid data, our young government has fairly outperformed many elite countries. There is nothing more satisfying than having one of the best policies in place. I have had my deep appreciation for their decision. 

 

The Covid restrictions have come at different times. For sure, it had caused immense difficulties. But, it's only to manage the spread of the virus in the community, so that it does not pose a threat to precious lives and paralyze our small health system. 

However, I've reservations about a free quarantine system. Although, it was in the best interest of the general public, yet I feel there is one -way traffic and the government bearing every bit of penny at such an hour was something we must relook in near future. I feel the cost sharing basis system would have been ideal, sustainable and more meaningful. 

Making a vibrant system in delivering a public service is a must and we must look from different angles. There should always be a win-win situation; otherwise, change and development we aspire for GNH nation will be just a dream.

Iron Lady of India dies at 68.

It was neither a good news to millions of Tamilian nor to the parliament house. But, she will continue to remain one of the most influential person in politics and in the film industries. Perhaps, she became more than the goddess of Tamil Nadu politics. She has been a greatest asset to her country in her best pursuit. The women who has ruled India more like 'Gandhian Philosophy.'   Jayalalithaa jee She has done every preeminent possible ways to bring massive changes in the life of millions of people and uplifted the Indian society than any other women. She had worked so hard, she had risk every bits of her life just for the benefit of all the Indians because of which she had gained a huge popularity amongst the other leaders. She was popularly known as an ‘ Iron Lady ’ for being tough and firm in her action and ‘ Amma ’ for acting more than a mother for millions of homeless and to the needy ones.’   The best part I have seen throughout her political regime and fil

Golden Words Of King Jigme Singye Wangchuck

King Jigme Singye Wangchuck "...in particular, speaking for myself; my sorrow in having lost my own father is indeed very great. What is more the country has lost a king whose kind has till now never been known..."                                                                ( Royal proclamation to the people of Bhutan, July 26, 1972)                                      "...as far as you, my people, are concerned, you should not adopt the attitude that whatever is required to be done for your welfare will be done entirely by the government.

Goodbye Beloved Teachers

When life has thousands reasons to walk and live, I've thousands different ways to spend my coming holidays. So, does you all my ‘teacher-colleagues’ I've been working so hard for nearly, 280 days round the clock in, educating different lives with different wants, likes and ages. Honestly, I've been so busy and fully occupied for countless hours of teachings, correcting exam papers, assessing note books etc… – and that is called the life of a ‘every tangible teachers’. As a teacher/educator, almost every time - life goes beyond teaching and correcting exam papers. As, we need to engage our students into various fields of learning – going for extra classes, attending club activities, prayers, co-curricular activities, literary activities, cultural programs and so on…and this is the life of each teacher behind the screen. Yet, we get lots of blame starting from the people of highest rank to the lowest. In Bhutan, now a day in the name of suicide case, educa
