Universal definition of Sustainable development is “a pattern of growth in which resource use aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come”. The belief is that sustainable development gives considerations of the carrying capacity of natural systems while trying to meet the needs and demand of the humanity.

In Bhutan, there are many stream water outlets which provide a strong potential for a good source of Renewable Energy. The water flows 24 hours a day and so far, it is uncommon for these potential to be utilized as a source of power. Potential energy from the elevated stream water is converted to kinetic energy and electrical energy as it flows down through turbines driving electrical generators.

Hello, indeed it is a long time since I wrote here. To be exact, I abandoned writing since the PDP government came into power. No, it was not a political reason that kept me away; it was rather a personal change (I shifted from my old city dwelling to my new village home). The new life blew me away, growing organic vegetables, understanding bio-technology (for farming), squabbling with the neighbors for irrigation and drinking water, keeping a tab on pumpkin heads (making sure the neighbors did not steal) and of course feeding the other members of the family (cats, dogs, birds). Life was going on like that for the last four year and suddenly I realize that I should do something, something more than growing vegetables and squabbling with neighbors, but I did not know what to do until I had the following couple of realizations.

“If wishes are horses, every beggar would ride it,” and if cordyceps are wishes, every highlanders would collect it as much as they want. But sadly though, wishes merely remain wishes.

This is the story of one Mr. John Wehrein from Hawaii in United States of America who was recently in Laya attending the Takin Festival 2011. It was the twist in his trip that landed him in the festival where tourist and foreigners alike were meant to be the main visitors. And he has no regrets having manipulated his travel itinerary for good. Neither he planned to be in Laya nor did anyone inform him. It was his sheer luck that he chanced upon such happening en route to Lingzhi.

perhaps I have found the answer..
perhaps I have not..
I strived for it, I cried, I laughed..
I lived for a cause, the cause unknown..

I amuse at the thought of humankind; I fascinate at the spontaneity of his creativity; I cheer the charms of our living with a ravishing life; all round- I delight in the intelligence of brains. I enthrall at its insightful heart wondering at the fancy of lives.

Tensed with excitement
Body quivering with a slight touch
Weakened knees and goose pimples
Vision blurring, breaths harder
Hearts pumping faster
Temperature rising with ascent!
Eyes closing in admiration
Of the breathtaking scenery!

It’s not a whole mountain or hilltop I wish to occupy
A vantage point or panorama is not my claim
Nor is it a wide plain or endless river banks
I can’t erect concrete jungle or trade sands and stones.

Looking Back to the 22nd of September 2002,
The Destiny or Fate has united us into one out of two.
Through thick and thin we have travelled,
And many things had to be unraveled,
Here we are, still strongly bonded.

Archery is Bhutan’s national sport, a sport associated with fun and merry making. Generally, the mood in Bhutan is festive after the harvest season and archery is one of the common fun activities around this time. Villages would echo happiness and farmers would beam in excitement. Usually, several two-day matches are played through the autumn months within the village or between neighbouring villages. Men would look stern as they take full aim at the target to please the onlookers, especially the dainty village damsels. Children would take extra joy and pride when their fathers or brothers find the target. It is an occasion filled with lots of food and drink, fun and laughter, contentment and happiness. Songs chorus to cheers and jeers.

“Let there be light, and there was light”
Our world was born thus, Christians believe
And the apple gave us knowledge, and pain
But Jesus will relieve us, He will rescue us!

Sewseela is just like any other dogs that you find in any backwoods, except for his drooping head and fluffy hair often giving an false impressive look of a hound that you find in some books but not as terrifying as the hounds of the Baskervilles. You will, if you see him, find nothing extraordinary about him. He is a brownish dog of average size, searching his share of morsel on the ground, rummaging hither and thither. You could find him around the school campus looking for something. It could be anything from food to mate.

Are people facing increasing risks by adopting local systems of medicine or are there true hidden benefits in the local healing system that remains to be properly recorded? Is there something wrong in our health system that makes people lose faith and trust and adopt the local systems of healing? Is there a chance for wrong diagnosis?

here comes this thought again...
like the sunlight seeping in through twilight clouds...
a moment adored from times unclear...
of majestic hills, green fields and winding roads..

The present method of evaluating the candidates in Civil Service Examination needs revisit on part of Royal Civil Service Commission as well as government. The present format of testing capabilities of candidates is not only unfair but impractical. Today weightage where candidates are evaluated with 60% in written examination, 20 % oral and 20 percent for marks secured in degree seems highly out of place. If I may be so bold, I would say it is unofficial form of unfairness and nepotism.

The place is beautiful. The people here are beautiful. The stray dogs that visit our campus are beautiful. ‘Beautiful’ is the only word I can think of. It is a preternatural setting. Like an artist’s stroke of brush creating world beyond this. I occasionally single myself, all alone, sitting on the porch overlooking my school. The children play games; some of it invented by their fragile mind. The game they play with their flip-flops seems too complicated to comprehend. I try to construct the meaning but I fail. I don’t know who wins or how the game is won.

At the heart of the ongoing refugee problem lie the two different perspectives of Nepal and Bhutan. Each side is steadfast in its belief. And each side, especially the Nepali side, is trying hard to convince the world to believe its version of the story. Let's compare the differing perspectives one by one.

I know Honourable Minister that you are too busy juggling with your Ministership that brings you lot of responsibilities and works, and your family who demand every minute of your time. I am really sorry to write my grievances here, the grievances that you may not read even at the end of your five-year tenure but I take this opportunity to write hoping that, by the grace of god, atleast your subordinates and fellow MPs will read, as you are the only person who can help us. Had I known your personal number, I would have called you but I really didn’t know other channel to reach you. The employees at scholarship division hardly listen to our complaint.

Filled with smouldering passion embers
I lie bored under the covers, musing
A long night ahead, a treacherous journey
Twists and turns, climbs and descents
