And
then the flags were hoisted half mast as we mourn for the victims of Nepal
earth quake. We can do nothing extraordinary at this juncture. The only simple
thing we can do is to pray for Nepal. Bhutan being one of the tiniest and
developing nations, our capacity to rescue Nepal is very limited. We have only few
hundred thousands of human resources and our economy is always fragile.
To
fatten our friendship with Nepal and to share deepest condolences, His Majesty
the king of Bhutan had donated 1 million US dollar to the government of Nepal
and recruited 63 brave Bhutanese to render quick medical assistance and
evacuation responses. Upon the command of His Majesty the king, Prime Minister
Tshering Tobgay has made visit to Kathmandu to message solidarity and support from
the king, government and people of Bhutan. He was the first foreign leaders to
visit Kathmandu after she was devastated by quake measuring 7.9 magnitudes on 25th
April 2015.
The
number of deaths is still rising up. Thousands of them were homeless and crying
for the lost of their beloved ones. They were in urgent need of our help. Our
little contributions can make big difference for them. I call all the people
around the globe and powerful countries to make Nepalese to feel that at least
they have someone who cares for them. Your little amount can craft big smile on
their faces.
I feel bad for the people of Nepal. I'm glad your government is working to help them.
