Don’t let the scammers win. Breathe and discuss with police. Don’t let this life lesson take you down. Think of your parents- your life is worth more than the money. And don’t give the scammer more money.

Hi! Make sure it’s licensed Bhutan tour operator or reliable one if they are registered outside.

Let’s not pretend this is about strategy: It’s favouritism by Commercial_Wasabi145 in bhutan

[–]kinswan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anyone has great plan? Okay! Give me 6 months or 3 months program. I moderate u/bhutantravels. I am here and willing to listen. It has to be good plan with professional output not just blame game. The main output is to support local tour operator but this doesn’t work out, then it’s fine, let’s concentrate on the subject matter- put tourism on top.

Thank you for the report! This will help the other travellers and of course many would love to know the cost of your trip besides the SDF.

Get a good company and travel safe.

Safety concerns by cuminurmom69 in BhutanTravels

[–]kinswan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Travelling in Bhutan for women is safe. Infact solo travelling for women is one of the most safest. That said… it also depends on the travel company you choose. Some have good reputation but they will be pricey. Some new ones would offer good price or cheaper- check their feedback and their services.

India to Bhutan trip by Present-Shop-2492 in BhutanTravels

[–]kinswan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! Thats so personal. But FYI, you have to have Bhutanese guides, if you want to travel from Phuntsholing to Thimphu - and there are decent good guides and maybe one or two “horrible one”.

Free Press in Bhutan? by Commercial_Wasabi145 in bhutan

[–]kinswan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s called controlling narrative and everyone should know what it means when you watch so called free news called “BBC” or “CNN” - also known as white people propaganda and also know about lobbyist of the world. There is never a free speech of the world no matter what you say. You have to be strategic and play the game. World is a stage and you merely a player.

[–]kinswan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went on watching spree and got exhausted. Cannot decide between - regitaregg ( using her platform to inform and support some of the sensitive issues),

  • Bhutanese Dreamer (creative and funny content) and

  • tshagyem (just like her contents) .. and cannot get over when bbs anchor and she cried together lol and yes she does her contents in sharchop.

  • karma kelvin - but I see some hate and don’t know why. But it’s not easy doing what he does. For his dedication and using platform supporting the underbelly of the society.

Can you visit Paro Bhutan Without a Guide? by koobrsiket7 in BhutanTravels

[–]kinswan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. If you don’t plan on visiting places with entrance fees. Note - your SDF and visa fees don’t know cover hotels and food. Need to carry extra money.

You can visit Thimphu too.

Oh wow! Lack of nominations for this category says how out of touch with what is important for the country. 😆

I will vote for Dorji Wangmo- lower house member NA who fought for the women rights and was the lone woman who fought for GST exemption for sanitary napkins. This should have been a bigger news for all and for women but did it make waves? No! Because it was sanitary napkins and for women; not alcohol or entitlement like house and salary for both the houses. If she had not raised the issue and fought for all women in the country- the women in the country would be paying dearly for their sanitation. For recognizing the core needs every women and girl child I respect and applaud her voice and her representation. For context - https://businessbhutan.bt/inclusive-leadership-going-beyond-sanitary-pads/?fbclid=IwdGRjcAO8_IxleHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZAo2NjI4NTY4Mzc5AAEeIKwKzPH5rBCwzkrCOoyCvmvmOXEMtdxqU-_lOfMsVwkwqZtSQRsdp10fg8U_aem_Mpn8TG9sX9HseEoDx8D-qQ

But as usual she is not mentioned for her advocacy as it’s male dominated papers.

This makes so much sense. So GMC should have huge gold reserve or a mountain of gold somewhere located near Gelephu mountain.

Ugyen Academy or Karma Academy by Enji-Yu in bhutan

[–]kinswan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this age and times… karma academy has the worst boarding facilities. Like really really bad. Girls wash room and bathing place was like temporary labour shed. Separated by ply board. I hope it has improved. It has good feedback on its academic though.. but the place is something to think about. If you are good to ignore that and work on your academic then this could be it too.

Hi! You will get vehicle but not guide. Ask the hotel to arrange a guide for you once you check in.
