I have lost a great friend

Sir, Dawa D. Tamang with his boys. Image: His FB page     As we come together to bid a farewell to one of our colleagues, the ministry of education is short of one experienced and qualified teacher.    I have lost a great friend, school has lost great asset, ministry has lost a great teacher, and students have lost a very passionate human being.

India through Bhutanese EYES. As we stand to celebrate 50 years of successful diplomatic relationship between two countries, I stand to salute wise and visionary leaders of all times. It is time we must all come together and reflect upon the past and plan for the future to further strengthen the excellent bilateral relations  between the two countries.

Thank you India for helping Bhutan become a beautiful place to live. We will never forget the support and con

Book Review: Emotional Intelligence

Name of the book: Emotional Intelligence Author:  Daniel Goleman Book genre:  Self-help book Year of publication: 1995   The book by Daniel Goleman “Emotional Intelligence” takes us into a journey of self–discovery. It talks about close relationship between IQ and EQ. It says IQ is important but more so EQ is must.

Perhaps for the same reason, I was immensely benefited. More so, I highly recommend this book for teachers and parents. It has lot of practical solution to increase leadership ability, team performance and decision making to personal wellbeing. On the other hand, it also helps to
