In today's  society, people are unhealthily addicted to social media. But perhaps we, specifically us considered “adults”, should begin to think what to share and what not to share online – especially when the bodies being shared are not ours. Especially when the owner of that body no longer has the ability to give you their permission to take their photo. Sharing and uploading photos of someone’s dead body with their face on your personal social media, especially without asking permission from the family or thinking about the reason behind the act, won’t necessarily be helpful to the public. Inform if the purpose is to inform. Honor the victim’s memory if you want to honor. But you do NOT need to carelessly share images of their dead body in order to do so, especially if you’re only posting the images for posting’s sake. Bear in mind this is a person. Not your #selfie.

His Majesty, against all odds travel to high risk areas to ensure that all Bhutanese are safe and sound. His Excellency the Prime Minister and his team continues to spend sleepless nights.

Few of the things that we can do in order to combat this pandemic are: 1) Do not travel. If you must, then please be honest and declare your travel history. 2) Maintain social distancing; avoid crowd. 3) Frequently wash hands with soap. 4) Avoid touching mouth, nose and eyes. 5) Do not spread rumors. 6) Do not read/watch COVID-19 related news from unknown or untrustworthy sources. 7) Use hand sanitizers when it is not possible for you to wash hands with soap. 8) Practic...

Her smile has the power To summon the world And transits a sadness To a blissful smile Her smile possesses the strength That repairs the broken heart Which loses all its interest In trusting the world Her smile gives the confidant And builds the courage To express the words of the heart And tell the world Her smile is my strength

Love has been the most essential element in our daily lives.  It gives one of the best feelings on earth, and it is very difficult for most people to survive without it.  Love gives people a sense of purpose. It creates a smile on people's faces.  Everyone wants it in some way, be it family, friend or romantic partner.   Love is the primary need of man.  Love is the feeling that encourages people to keep away from emotion and depression.  When love and affection disappear from someone's life, they make the world feel boring and find themselves in a state of loneliness.   The definition of love may vary for different people, but ultimately, love is a human emotion.  Love can occur in various forms, but most people find expression in their spouse's love.  Some people consider romantic relationships to be the most meaningful element of their lives.  They provide a source of perfection.  The ability to form healthy, stable...

The death penalty for convicted rapists may not the best way to solve the problem.   There are many reasons why the death penalty may not be resolved, including:   - The death penalty may not prove to be effective in combating crime.  The death penalty group was abolished by the Royal Decree on March 20, 2004 and was banned by the July 2008 Constitution.  Concerns about the values ​​of the Buddhist spirit are obvious.   - Death penalty in rape cases may put victims in even greater danger, as it may lead perpetrators to murder victims in an effort to cover up the crime.   - Bhutan does not need to impose more punishment on rape; all it needs is better law enforcement.  It is enough to sentence a rapist to life imprisonment.  As long as law enforcement officials are indifferent to dealing with sexual assault cases, aggravating their penalties will not prevent rape. - Finally, it is particularly unwise to generalize the use of the deat...
