Beyond Common Sense

This morning as I was briefly updating some Newsfeed on latest COVID-19, I came across this interesting post made in STCB Ltd page –STCBL commissioned its first ever fuel retail outlet at Ramtokto, Thimphu, today. Venerable Laytshog Lopen inaugurated the fuel retail outlet. This is not the news I was surprised and wanted to share through this post.

I was amazed if not for the first time with this warming news of –"Besides fuel, the outlet offers drinking waterclean restrooms, and free air service for customers." It immensely surprised me that we have people with some good common sense. I thought of these kinds for so long and it happened by surprise. Perhaps, we have room for better service and business as always.

This is how we need to think for a small developing nation with a very small and unstable economy. More than the news of COVID-19 pandemic that has grieved the world, I was gripped by their kindness, good gesture and innovation. We need such a forward thinking company, individual, office, institutions, lawmakers and more so our engineers who are the mother of design. 

We need business of such class and improvement, and not the business that only robs the customers alone for the poor service, this is what I feel is true –"Building a good customer experience does not happen by accident. It happens by design." Indeed, Clare Muscutt was a brilliant guy. 

With change in time and space, we need such good innovation especially in business, because I feel customers pay for the total sum of all while availing the service whatever may be the cause. Sometimes less is more!

So far most of our businesses are very plain and most of them are seen below an average. We are in need of such futuristic and innovative design in our business. This happens with good managing skills, leadership matters.

I hope this fuel station would be a role model for upcoming and already existing outlets to learn and adapt to the changing world. More importantly, all the services in the station are safe, enduring and viable one throughout. Prayers!!!

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.

The Story of Malika Chand.

There lived a schoolteacher named Malika Chand. She loved teaching and treated her students as she would, her own children. Nurturing their potential with great kindness. Her perennial motto was, 'Your,  I can is more important than your,  IQ .' She was known throughout her community as a person who lived to give. Who selflessly served anyone in need? Sadly, her beloved school, which had stood as a silent witness to the delightful progress of generations of children, succumbed to the flames of a fire set by an arsonist one night. All those in the community felt this great loss. But as time passed by, their anger gave way to apathy and they resigned themselves to the fact that their children would be without a school. "What about Malika?"   "She was different, an eternal optimist if there ever was one. Unlike everyone around her, she perceived opportunity in what had happened. She told all the parents that every setback offers an equivalent benefit ...
