i think that is not enough…he promised us more than that as well…his frequent visit to bhutan and staying at his friends guest house should be cut off…
well all the best…
yes his frequent visit to bumthang is really becomming a problem as he was found drinking staying at his friends guest house and above all…changing the airport plant on the mountains, and his cousin still working as a manager in the govt. farm in bumthang though he had finished his tenure is a seriouse issues of corouption..that needs to be looked in and action should be taken. he is rather doing good as a minister but should not be so irresponsible when it comes to govt. budget and TA DA…spending so much on his enjoyment,,,,
all the best…
yes he is attending so many meetings and seems to be busy all the day but why dont he visits schools and pass the inforations about importance of agriculture servicesto our country to our feature youth since since our youths seems to be negecting this activities .
if he visits schools and inistutes i think youths will take a note of it
our lands seems to be barren n emty houses youth seems to be hanging in the town drinking and creating problems hope for that all the best
