Page 22 - PDP Manifesto 2018

Dedicated to the Kings and People of Bhutan
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has been privileged to receive the overwhelming mandate to represent
and serve the people of Bhutan as the ruling party for the ve years of Bhutan’s second democratic government from 2013 to 2018. During our term in o ce, we have served the Tsa Wa Sum with the collective conscience of the people of our beloved dragon Kingdom and always placed the national interest above all else.
As the rst political party of Bhutan, the PDP has always been inspired by the national development philosophy of
Gross National Happiness (GNH) and has worked towards improving the wellbeing of the people.
Our nation has been lucky to be blessed by the omniscient Guru Rinpoche, the omnipotent Zhabdrung and several other Buddhist masters and their blessings have manifested in the form of our benevolent Kings who have sacri ced their lives for the betterment of this wonderful nation. We have been fortunate to have Kings who served us rather than rule us.
As the nation prepares for the third
