No our MPs don’t accept 1800 in kind(bag). It has to be Nu 180,000.00 in cash to make our MPs happy. They proved it with driver ealier.

Why all this hue and cry over DHI who did something right. Nu 120,000 is something an individual official spends from goverment coffers for personal gain, so what is the harm when DHI is marketing its purpose and funtion to our sefl centered MPs. Something has happened for sure, our MPs now know that there is some thing called DHI( hopefully the mandate too?).

DHI is an institution. But someone in the organization should be held responsible. I strongly believe that DHI is NOT ignorant about rules giving gifts to MPs. Besides, remember the cost of bag, Nu. 1800, if it makes to some far flung remote rural areas of Bhutan, would happily feed a small family for a month. Giving bags to MPs does not any where hinge on GNH.

Stop squandering tax payers’ money. It is not the receiver that should be guilty but the giver too, considering the the intention that is given with.

Yours sincerely,

Was DHI trying to bribe the parliamentarians?. I dont see the reason for DHI to give leather bags as New year gifts to the parliamentarians. Was that a kind of advertisement?.

Isn’t DHI wasting our scarce resources in purchasing such expensive new year gifts? The money could have been better used…
