The soaring prices in every commodities are making everyone’s life miserable especially for those people who are dependent on their meagre salary. There is no pay hike for them but there is a gift of inflation in the market. The government is well aware of it but they ignore and overlook it. Since the inception of democratic government, every citizen of the country had full faith in them and hoped that they could be the “Suviour”. But as the days rolled by, months passed by and the years swinged by, the true colour of our elected politicians revealed. They are hungry wolves, never gets statisfied and they are always hungry for money. This proverb suits them most, ” Your eyes is too big for your stomach.”
May our monarch save us from the clutches of market inflation as our elected members are devil in-disguise who will never ever think of others but for themselves only.

we, most of the bhutanese feel the difficulty of the life not only at thimphu but every coner of the country. it seems our brilliant, self centred leaders are still so kool, coz they extract more than anyone in our country. whoever may be the time has come where people of low income has to suffer like anything that may even lead to increase of sucide case. ask anyone who is happy with present government, hopeless,,,,,,,,,,,,, not only me,,,,,,,or u….all the people of the drukyul….would like to urge our gov. to look into the matter and come out some solution rather than always dicussing abt the benefits of yourself. its high time, even people of drukyul to come together and raise the voice regarding the hike….so what all the drukpas say on the matter????????????????
