May 21, 2010 - I've noticed that the Bhutanese and Tibetans all have atrocious musical taste.

Jun 1, 2010 - @danpt2000 You have made the point accurately. Concepts like "democracy", "free market capitalism" are not really the ideals we should pursue. They are only PROCLAIMED as ideals by the US. In actuality, the pursuit of materialistic values and democracy has made men always demand for more, and they feel doomed when their demand could not be satisfied,

Jun 1, 2010 - @tsherique Because you will really become happy if you live there - either by being born there or migrating there and living there long enough. Bhutanese people know the meaning of life - and I mean THE meaning of life. That is, living a simple life. In this way, it prevents your standards from becoming too high, and you will be always happy.

Jun 2, 2010 - @pinkyush.any nation has the right to protect thier own country..bhutan was simply protecting themsleves by being overrun by the illegal immigrants from nepal. Just beczuse they have lived in bhutan fro 5-10mins by illegally crossing the border doesn't suffice one to be a citizen of that country.

tsherique Says:

Jun 2, 2010 - @pinkyush These illegal nepalese has ruined their own nation Nepal and now trying to infest their corrupted nature into Bhutan. Stay away please, we are one happy nation who wants to live and carry forth our legacy passed down from our ancestors. Our kind is our god! He is the most noble king of all the time!

Jun 4, 2010 - @tsherique Dude! Did you even check the Human right comission report link that i provided? Every body is entitled to their own opinion but not their own FACT .and the fact which is clear like light of the day is that People of Nepelese Origin (not Nepali citizens) who were living in bhutan for generations (more than 2) were forced toleave bhutan.Not tens not hundreds but thousands were tortured.and funny that your king is your god. I pity you for your ignorance.!

Jun 12, 2010 - Are you retarded. There musical tastes aren't atrocious, it's their traditional music, you should not be so ignorant

S1587915G Says:

Jun 12, 2010 - @gatheringleaves Well, *I* find it atrocious. If YOU actually LIKE it, excellent, go for it. It just doesn't appeal to me. I've listened to some Tibetan nusic before. I honestly found it hard to imagine how anyone could like it. I respect the rights of the Bhutanese etc to their own ways of life. It's merely that some aspects of them don't appeal to me.

gatheringleaves Says:

Jun 16, 2010 - Yeah so you shouldn't have even brought it up in the first place you idiot, I swear people really need to open their minds

gatheringleaves Says:

Jun 16, 2010 - who cares, the people of Bhutan didn't decide that, the King did, and anyway they were causing trouble so some of them deserved it

Jun 23, 2010 - @whatananswer: hey asshole wake up...u are living in 21st century...different people have different views...if u don't like Bhutan so be it get out of there..but just don't shed ur misery our here....I'm Bhutanese, and i'm happy with my King and People....who are u to give shits.....just fuck off..

zamlingnelam Says:

Jun 23, 2010 - @upeanbhupen: firstly-How on earth did u get the information that Bhutan's budget is prepared by India?..we receive aids and grants from India like we do from other countries like Australia, Netherlands, Japan..etc...i work in Ministry of Finance and i have never seen Indian govt preparing budget for Bhutan. Second: who says we don't have freedom of speech...govt gives us free education, health facilities and even land if you don't have one so we don't need to speak anything..

zamlingnelam Says:

Jun 23, 2010 - @upeanbhupen: what do you know about this problem?...the only indigenous people of Bhutan are the people from central region...and even me i don't know where i'm from(originally)...the point here is that the problem started when the government made it compulsory to wear the national dress in the late eighties and early nineties whereby some group of southerbhutanese demonstrated and stated they don't want to wear and want other government...

zamlingnelam Says:

Jun 23, 2010 - @upeanbhupen: the government took this action because of what happened to our neighboring countries like sikkim and Tibet, we don't have huge army to protect the country..the only way to protect is by maintaining our culture. Like i said i don't know where about my orgin..but i was born in Bhutan and was looked after by Bhutanese govt...in return they are asking just the simple thing...just go with the culture...is it difficult.?.is it not worth it?..for me it's worth it and y can't u do that.

zamlingnelam Says:

Jun 23, 2010 - @upeanbhupen: No where it's written that speaking of southern Bhutanese language if forbidden, please don't write hypothetical statements..i speak that language every where...except in the official meeting's (only English and Dzongkha) and about the dress didn't u watch any Bhutanese festival or school concert..it is widely used anywere and everywere...i have a southernbhutanese colluge and we talk in what every language we like..so please don't give ambiguous statment..

Jul 3, 2010 - GOODBYE folks im moving to Bhutan..lol..you deal with the dictatorship of Obama.

jemmre Says:

Jul 6, 2010 - Its ironic that the scientific, modern industrialised world is so certain that they are advanced that they call themselves "developed" and other countries like Bhutan "undeveloped" when it is patently obvious that this is not a true reflection of reality. How could we have got it so wrong? How with all our scientific knowledge of the human species did we confuse money with happiness or freedom with choice? What good is to come of economic growth and ecological harm for the future generations?

Jul 16, 2010 - Yes, in many ways places like Bhutan, and formerly Tibet, are way more advanced than us, I prefer tradition over technology any day

Aug 21, 2010 - greetings from Romania, a nother Buthanese country .Well Bhutan will be soon devorated, by television, by stupid democracy, wich has failed as a sistem. I hope this interesting people survive. I dont see that young king so conservative. He wants a technological Bhutan

tingsgwan Says:

Aug 25, 2010 - television and internet is going to destroy the youth and culture to raise the kids to destroy thier own land eventually. it is so captivating to see anything you can think of good or bad . alot of european ways and inventions are really destructive and they try to take over everything

KiltedGreen Says:

Aug 30, 2010 - Television is the Trojan horse. I wouldn't wish (and am in no position) to deny anything to Bhutan but TV really rots the brain. They really need to keep their eyes on/off(!) that if they want to maintain their culture as it has been and keep what they value.
