Hello- I am perfectly fine

These last two months had been too laborious and sometimes frustrating one for me. May be more for many victims of controversial Learn and Earn program, including parents, students, and I guess more frustrations even for owner-agent (BEO) and our government's part of MOLHR.

Held numerous meetings within ourselves and petitioned to different relevant agencies and hierarchies. Spoken to and sometimes poured frustrations in media platforms regarding this Japan Overseas' scam.

Apart from holding our truths that students and parents have been deceived right from the beginning and exploiting at the moment, I do not want to mention anything about the agent and MOLHR's action of any sort. To my myiopic view, they have their own unsatisfactory and unjustifiable explanation against what we seek.
This journey has started to seek justice and its never to put pressure and criminalize someone at the cost of their happiness. Nonetheless, anyone must bear implications and ramifications for what justice has to offer ultimately. None of us- involved in this undesirable issues is sacrosanct to accountability and justice.

As one of the victims and as one of the Japan oversea's parent-student committee members, I could not resit myself not speaking up for what it is must and where it is due. Yes I did speak up and will do so by upholding the principle of veracity and thorough research in my capacity. This voyage of seeking justice is not only for myself, but also for more than 700 victims and their parents and relatives. Most importantly, I devote my attention and sensitivity in such issues for my fellow younger generations as our future depends on how our elderly raise us. Current learn and earn program is so exploitative and torturous to youths and would affect our future terribly, therefore, I will go till end by not anticipating about future consequences to myself and others who relate to me in ways and forms.

I say this because, since I started speaking up I have been alerted and warned by many to keep silent and watch it while letting others fight and cooperate with our counterparts if possible. I am receiving frequent calls and messages of concern from parents, relatives and friends to be careful when being alone and as I go to town. Some also advised me to think about my career scope just because I would be a civil servant in one or two years. I would like to thank everyone of you for your genuine concern of love and care. I am so happy in this messy moment just because of you all. In fact, your love and concerns are what motivate me to stand for what is right and just. I am really sorry if I am giving all of you tensions and worrisome moment.
I will give my best and speak up till this problem is fixed as how it ought to be. I will do so by upholding utmost truth and veracity. I am accountable and transparent to what I say and what I do regarding this issue. In fact this journey I consider is to face and challenge deception, exploitation, 'modern-day-slavery', corruption, and injustice functioning. Despite everything I am doing fine and I am not afraid of any threats for what I have done.

Hi I am extremely and perfectly doing fine.

Thank you.

111th National Day- A National day like never before.

In the history of Bhutan, we have seen numerous celebrations of so many joyous and auspicious occasions. Of many, no day has more significance and importance as National Day of the country. It is an indication of country’s sovereignty and independence. Perhaps it is a liberation of the country from others rule or gaining self-determination in Western context/elsewhere. No country or state can celebrate the national day if she is not independent and sovereign. Celebration of national day emboldens the national’s identity and security of the nation.

Since 1907 Bhutan has celebrated 110 times of national days so far in different places and this years’ been celebrated in Samtse district. This year’s 111^th National Day is yet another testament of eternal peace and prosperity under the farsighted leadership of our beloved monarchs. As one of the millennials, I was unfortunate to have unseen many celebrations of National day. As far as I can remember, 2018’s 111^th national day is something that moved me and I think is different from others.

As Bhutan is blessed by the three great spiritual masters- Guru, Zhabdrung and Pema Lingpa, the national day of triple one (111) is graced and blessed by the great trio of His Majesty the great fourth, His Majesty and His holiness the Jekhenpo. Day has also seen three kings of Bhutan taking the joy and festivity of the national day to a greater level. Humbly respecting and bowing to each other before the Bhutanese and the world. Even our Gyalse Rinpoche exhibited such a greatness at very tender age of barely three years by bowing to the great fourth and Chabje Rinpoche at the reception.

The sensational and heart touching moment of the 111^th national day was, His Majesty on behalf of Bhutanese people presenting an award of Ngadgak Pel gi Kholrlo  to His Holiness the Jekhenpo for his lifetime Bodhisattva service to the nation and sentient beings. There was embodiment of epitome respect and humility in these three greats (HM, 4^th HM and Chabje). Like any other ordinary award recipients, Chabje Rinpoche humbly stood up and walked towards the podium under the compassionate escort of our Great Fourth. While His Holiness is supposed to come before the podium to receive the award, His Majesty requested Chabje that, Majesty himself would come up and present the award ༼རྗེ་ང་རང་ཡར་བཅར་འོང་ལགས།།༽ There was personification of highest humility and humbleness from our highest one. It was a moment brimmed with tears of happiness for Bhutanese people. When such greatness come together, even the weather could not follow its schedule and had to shed its flake of happiness before time.

Even the day in general was different from other national day celebrations. By virtue of celebrating in Samtse, most events of the day and cultural programs had so much of diversity and inclusivity. The live and color were more brighter and livelier.  One could see on television, the people’s pride and keen in national culture as they perform programs wholeheartedly. Apart from people assimilating in the mainstream culture, the events from different community of our Lhotshampa fellow citizens had made the day unique and interesting in many aspects. I am sure that embracing of culture have immensely contributed to the Gross National Happiness.

Of everything, the national day in Bhutan is an opportunity for us to express our gratitude to our benevolent hereditary monarchs for continued peace and prosperity in the country. May Wangchuck Dynasty live forever and, May Dharma flourish for all times to come. May peace and prosperity prevail in the land of Thunder dragon for all times to come. Kadrinche Mewang chok. Palden Drukpa Gyalo!!!

What Should I expect more?

My parents were sure to enroll me into school, however, I wonder how did they decide with such a tight economic situation. Once I heard from my dad about how he bribed headmaster because he had no money to buy school uniform and pay school fee for my sister. By then each students have to pay Nu.505 and 20 measuring bowls (drey) of Kharang (maize grit)

I was fortunate enough to be enrolled into primary school. However, primary school life seemed really a torturous because as a kid or smallest of all, I and my friends were mostly bullied or beaten by teachers or by elders for varied subjective reasons. We would get a cup of soyabeen flour porridge as our breakfast and sometimes a boiled potato or slice of cucumber when rations get out of stock. During lunch break, we have to go and collect firewood to prepare meal for all students where most of us would get late for our after lunch class. Due to all those hardships most of us would try to run away from school or discuss to drop the school at some point of time. Yes I literally thought of leaving school.

However, my academic standings were always in either first or second position but topper’s aggregate would be in 65% to 69%. I realized that, academic standings and parent’s insisting wishes would have been the only motivations that kept me alive in schools.

As a blessing on my educational voyage, I was fortunate to get a financial assistance from Thrumshingla National Park since class 4 till 11. I would get Nu. 2500 per year and it would cover my school expenses including fee, cost for kharang and uniform.

Then in grade nine, I got ill from severe typhoid and was hospitalized for a month. It had diminished my hope of studying and once again decided to drop the school. For this decision, my dad wasn’t happy at all and objected it on the spot. He literally had to encourage me to continue studying despite that circumstances.

In class ten, I lost my mother and once again shattered the dream of studying. I became so despondent to be in the school and dreamt of becoming a monk. At the same time, that was the time I had to pretend myself to be strong and responsible siblings because I am the second eldest of five. The sense of responsibility really stuck to the core of my heart and since then I have started to put more effort so as to gain the trust and encourage my younger siblings. Fortunately, I qualified from class ten with only 68%.

Most fortunate and prestigious moment was in my grade 12 when I got selected as a Gyalpoi Tozep. What great virtue did I accumulate or what positive action did I do in my past life to receive kidu scheme right from the top? Since then I have promised myself that I will put double effort than others who are less fortunate to receive kidu from His Majesty the King.

One day, I had an audience with one of the His Majesty’s zimpoens. Dasho zimpoen reiterated His Majesty’s noble vison and hope from the youths and from the Gyalpoi Tozeyps in particular. Of all Dasho zimpoen shared how His Majesty watches national television in anticipation to see good news or stories about any Gyalpoi Tozeyps. I took this statement from Dasho zimpoen to the heart and really worked hard to study. For the first time in my life, I got 78% in class twelve’s board examination.

With this mark, I got a scholarship from Department of Adult and Higher Education (DAHE) to start my tertiary education. I entered the college with high aims and determination to excel one day down the line. Since first year of my college, for the first time in life I managed to score in 80s.

After working that hard, today would be the most elated and successful day in my academic journey. The award, my first ever of its kind comes all the way from the golden throne and it came right prior to two and half months of my graduation from college. Even though my college is on the verge on ending, I know this is just a beginning and rest would be the history.

It is such a touching and inspiring moment to receive such a prestigious certificate of excellence in academic. In fact, what should I expect more than this–a sanctified and priceless award from the མི་དབང་མངའ་བདག་རིན་པོ་ཆེ། Thank you Your Majesty for བྱིན་བརླབས་ཅན་གྱི་ལག་ཁྱེར།

This award is totally not a fruition of my hard work but of many helping hands behind it. In fact, their contribution outweighs my hard work and perseverance. Therefore, I dedicate this award firstly to my mom and dad for believing in me and making me go to school despite many challenges.

Second, I dedicate the award to Thrumshingla National Park office for funding my primary and secondary education.

Special dedication and acknowledgement goes to all of my teachers for sacrificing, encouraging and believing in me. Apart from teaching prescribed facts and information, thank you so much for instilling human values in me. Just because of teachers I am who I am today and I promise I will be the one who you wished me to become. Kadrinche to all the incarnation of Jampelyang: A རིག་པའི་བང་མཛོད། (A storehouse of knowledge).

Royal Government of Bhutan also deserves a huge credit for generous and meritocratic free education.

Not to forget my classmates and friends who have sweated our brow and laughed together through thicks and thins, wherever you are and whatever you are doing, I dedicate this prestigious award to all of you as well.

last but not the least, I promise I will create history one day!!!

Thank you

Khedrup Dorji

The Valedictory Speech for graduation

Your excellency Lyonpo Kinzang Dorji, venerable Tsugla Lopen Rinpoche, distinguished guests, Honorable college President, Director, Deans, Registrar, esteemed members of faculty and staff, parents, and my dear friends. Kuzu Zangpo la.

It’s been four years since the start of my time at RTC and time has passed by so fast. Today, graduation day, is a much-anticipated day for all of us.

I am sure each of my fellow graduates have their own RTC stories. Some of them funny, some of them sad, some of them very romantic and some of them happy. Today I want to share part of my RTC story. In particular, I want to share how my RTC story shows that hard work and perseverance can multiply one’s blessings and lucks.

Once upon a time it was 2013. My first visit to Thimphu. Prior to this visit I haven’t even heard of RTC. Without any knowledge about RTC, I landed up choosing to come here to study for a BA Political Science and Sociology and I do not regret this decision.

Considering my rural upbringing and being in Thimphu for the first time, yes RTC seemed an intimidating environment. To add to my uncertainty, many people were questioning my decision and insisting that RTC was a college only for rich and delinquent people. This kind of talk stirred up tension in my father’s mind and like any caring father, he used to call me twice a day just to make sure I was comfortable. I spent a big part of my first semester convincing my father that I was fine.

Since my first year, with both passion and anxiety – I have tried to grab every opportunity that college had to provide because I believe that one learns best by trying out and doing things.

Of all the memorable experiences RTC has given me, today I will be sharing two major moments.

First, is my experience of being a Student Government member. By being first year representative and then in my final year student government president, I have come to understand better the issues faced by my friends and could broaden my social network. It was truly both humbling and fulfilling to have had the trust and confidence of my fellow mates and the management. These experiences made me to realize the value of social responsibility and our duty to help others.
As I reflect today, I realize that my ambitions have changed to reflect this new understanding. “When I was in Primary school, my ambition was to become a minister, and in middle secondary school, it changed to being a doctor. Then in high school I aimed to become a lawyer and my college life has made me to aim to become a good human.”

Secondly, as a humble patriot, it was a privilege to represent our country and the college in both Japan and USA as an exchange student. For this I thank Royal Thimphu College for providing such opportunities to the students that they believe have worked hard and will continue to rise to new challenges in new settings. This recognition provided me with an opportunity to learn more about the world and about myself.

The bottom line here is that all these wonderful opportunities did not happen overnight nor did they just fall into my lap. They required so much consistent sacrifices, hard work, positive thinking, and most importantly a perseverance throughout the journey. These four years at college had taught me, that no matter where you come from and who you are, if you have the passion to learn and the discipline to do hard work then opportunities are the blessings and you make your luck in life.

But hard work does not stop after college because I know that the life ahead of us is more daunting, more challenging, and more competitive than what we had here. This means we must prepare for rejections, despair, stumbling, underestimation and for any uncertainties. Therefore, I would like to warn my friends not to get frustrated, rather face these uncertainties with a positive and hopeful mindset.

Now for this wonderful journey, I would like to thank and dedicate my graduation ceremony firstly to my beloved mom, who must be happily watching me from above. Even though she is no longer with me, I know she is proud today. Whatever I am is because of her. Life is unfair sometimes. Had she been here the sparks of this day would have been different but since I can feel her presence in me and I am Proud to fulfill one of her wishes today. Secondly, I dedicate this day to my inspiration- who is the most hardworking, dedicated man of honesty and integrity—none other than my dad. Kadrinche APA.

Thirdly, my humble and deep gratitude goes to His Majesty the King for sponsoring my personal expenses through Gyalpoi Toyzep program and Department of Adult and Higher Education (DAHE) for a scholarship to RTC.

Lastly, Thank you Royal Thimphu College and every individual for your influence and motivations throughout my journey of learning. Whether I succeed or fail in life, I shall take pride of being graduated from one of the most prestigious colleges in Bhutan and would be the proudest alumni of RTC.

Tashi Delek.

The Mid-night thought

Its almost midnight, 11:57 pm!
A dumb and still you are,
Yet a time to converse the unspoken words,
Which seem powerful and meaningful for this time.

A deeply dead and buried you are,
Yet alive and mentally a laborious one,
Of cerebration of million thoughts
Yet a zero million expression.

No delicate blankets, soft pillow and bouncing mattress
Could put me to sleep.
Dawn is becoming a miles journey.

Before completing this journey of miles
I have battle to overcome
A battle that goes inside
Between the heart and mind.

Of undergoing all these battle
I know its of no use
In fact, it's a waste of useful time.

I know those thought thoughts
Would precipitate like crystal dews on the grass,
And evaporate when sun shines.
Nevertheless, sorry for insisting my hand,
To scribble you-the troubling thoughts
Into my journal
So I might protect you
From precipitation and evaporation.

Waiting on the street

On that buzzing street, yes, I was literally typing on my phone. Near the corner of Norling building, trying hard not to divert my sight and pretending that I haven’t seen anyone around. Not even the acquaintance. Please pardon me for that but I was that focused! Haha….

I opted for this aloofness on busy street as rain was too harsh, pelting without mercy and drenching me into it like anything. As if I am a fish in the pool. Thank you roof of Norling building for showing your empathy to be an umbrella.

I was waiting for someone who do not care who is waiting for him but wanted to wait for him anyways. Sometimes I wish to put the hands of your wrist watch ahead of anyone else's.

As I wait for him, I was overwhelmed and intimidated to see the street populated by “unemployed graduates”. Sometimes I wonder if we are accounted in the statistics of unemployed section. There was no place even to place a foot on the street. It was Sunday when graduates had their Preliminary Examination for civil service. Usually on Sunday I have seen streets crowded by immigrant workers but on that Sunday, they too were generous to give spaces for graduates to walk and discuss about the exam and some about their future plans.

Are these all looking for job? For what kind and when? In this race, will every one be treated fairly? Can everyone get what they have studied? But I believe no fresh graduates is packaged one as required by post vacancy announced by almost all the organizations. Do graduates have to expect to get job soon or should employers expect graduates to be experienced without giving jobs?

Anyways, I would like to wish fellow graduates and unemployed friends very good luck for everything in life.
