Civil Service in Bhutan

Although there is no generally accepted definition for the “civil service”, it is recognized as the expanding corps of trained human resources in the service of the state in a given area (Meer, Raadschelders, & Toonen, 2015) . Civil service is the main component of modern government and its influences have become important but civil service in the governmental system has grown more difficult  (West, 2003) . The external relationships of the civil service have been changing with its internal characteristics modification in the political systems generally. However, the total work force comprising the civil service has been growing in most countries (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development , 1999) . Civil servants in Bhutan also grew significantly from few hundreds to 26,669 in 2015.

Random Views From Lay Man

For the quest of peace and thirst of happiness, I became a wanderer in the core of thoughts. While wondering thoughts afloat me through the unanswered questions, I always sat back and reflected, but in agony.

Thimphu City is loosing its Charm

Thimphu is Bhutan’s capital and is like any other emergent concrete mushrooms in the world, at its crucial stage, at the brisk of bursting its cancerous cells. The capital of this prosperous and happy  nation, its pulse is rising and running, racing and booming with the demands of modern life.

Like any other city, Thimphu city is no more a place of peace and solitude. The silence of the city once had, has be...
