The pictures of an elderly lady prostrating to the TV screen after seeing His Majesty granted audience to the students in the southern border area in Bhutan went viral and was shared on the social media platform. Words do not bear the capacity to express our gratitude to His Majesty’s selfless leadership and for the personal blessings which all Bhutanese will cherish for life.

The monarchs of Bhutan have been the fountainhead of the country’s progress and modernization. Since the emergence of the hereditary Monarchy in 1907, the kings have followed a path of smooth and gradual modernization. The institution of the Monarchy has propelled Bhutan to where it is today.

At such a time as this, when COVID-19 fear abounds and leaders around the world are working from some distant confines of quarantine, His Majesty the King is tirelessly traveling across the nation, ensuring the people are safe and gracing Bhutanese with a priceless assurance of safety with peerless wisdom and compassion since the first case of COVID-19 positive case was detected in Bhutan.
