Bhutan Transporter

More Bhutanese have left for Australia in a chartered flight.

Many more are booking flight to India for IELTs test to go abroad.

Given that country has small population and many untapped resources, actually people should be able to make future within country. But seems not enough opportunity for everyone.

New areas could be opened for economic activities and create entrepreneurship and employment.

Instead we go for banning and closing. It could mean that perhaps there is little more restriction than required in economic sector.

For highly populated countries, even if millions leave, it don't affect domestic economic productivity that much, brain drain and other national issues.

Here population excluding foreign workers is less than 700,000. So far, we have gungtong only.

Sometimes we take years to take a decision. On other hand, some policy change with every new government. That create uncertainty in investment environment for pvt sector.

After all humans want better future for them and children. People going abroad for study and work is not necessarily bad.

But it makes to realize the hard fact that our economic situation and system are no better from countries which depend on remittance.

Just a humble view from a humble layman🙏
