its sad to know that we r facing this problem…and even more sad to know girls r outnumbering….this actually should’nt be happening…but i don’t think imprisoning them would help…instead why not the govt. impose fine on them as the caller can be tracked down…

i think such callers should be punished in such a way that they will not even think of doing such pranks next time..it is really annoying and irritating to hear that girls are more over involved..are this people not educated?..when it comes children, parents are responsible for this kind of acts..they should know how to teach lessons to such children otherwise bhutanese will never grow..

It is really bad that people misuse these services. But we can expect it to die down after some years. Right now, people are experiencing this ability to call any one from anywhere for the first time in Bhutan and they are too excited to try it out. And what better way to try it out than free calls!
Still I don’t mean we have to condone such acts. We need to educate people about why it is wrong to misuse these services. And yes, even punish them to teach a lesson to other would-be abusers.

I am shocked to hear this misuse of emergency telephone services particularly in Bhutan and more by girls too! Has the Buddhist ethic been diminishing lately?

We have a lot in the UK but it seems there are more of these per capita in Bhutan – can this phenomenon be explained by any sociologist in Bhutan?
