One of the four pillars of GNH is taking care of our environment. True one of the solution to the Rupee Crisis may be to increase our export whether it is through mining and mineral export but surely if the govt’s aim is to decrease the gap between the have and have not’s then the country’s mines should not be concentrated in hands of a few rich people or their families.

The former MD of NRDCL is in jail for abuse of authority and favoritism how come such practices are still rampant?This issue needs to be addressed immediately to avoid many people having to face jail sentences in the future.

An ordinary citizen isn’t allowed to fish and our rich and powerful are allowed to destroy whole mountains through mining. Just two days back, in order to provide a decent protein rich meal to his two children and wife, a man went out for fishing because he can’t afford to buy it from his salary. Poor him he loses his life and never returns home. The rich destroy mountains and steal lands nothing happens and nobody notices it. The poor guy did it (just fished) and got killed. Wow what a harsh reality! I sometime wonder why our rivers are not crowded with thousands varieties of of fishes with the strict and high handed fish conservation policy/rules implemented over several decades! May be all healthy ones migrate to India, get caught there and then imported back. I am really confused with all the harsh ground realities in the land of GNH.

Now the responsibility of putting in a government that has the king, people and the country’s interest at heart is upon us. We have two more months before the elections. In this time, we need to learn as much as possible about the candidates in our constituency. We need to educate and inform our village folks about them.Lastly, please choose a MP who you think is capable, has principles, and one who has the courage to stand up and speak against their own party or leader(s) if the latter is found to be making mistakes or indulging in corruption.

I will never vote for DPT. The MPs in DPT are all followers of their sacred God, JYT. They eat, sleep and dance to JYT’s tune. It is an irony that there is a dictatorship style leadership in the a political party that is supposed to rule our democratic country.JYT has everything; respect, money, power, fame and the people’s vote and trust. He had a very good opportunity to really take our country to new heights. Instead, he chose to mess up everything with his arrogance and insatiable hunger for money and power. I feel sad for him.  Flabbergasted
