I was born in Nepal: HM the King of Bhutan

telegraphnepal.com

The King of Bhutan, His Majesty Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, revealed at an interaction with Nepal’s Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal that he was born at a Hospital in Kathmandu in the year 1980.

“Thus I have sentimental attachment with Nepal because I was born there in the year 1980”, he added.

“Nepal and Bhutan must join hands because we share similar cultural and geographical settings”, said the Bhutanese King.

“We both are landlocked, mountainous and developing nations”, he also said.

“Nepal and Bhutan have tremendous prospects of harnessing of Hydro-Electricity, we must thus work together in developing our respective economies”, the Bhutan King suggested PM Nepal.

Whereas other leaders of South Asian Countries separately paid courtesy calls on Bhutan King, however, the Bhutan King in a grand departure from all the diplomatic protocols himself came to see the election defeated Nepal PM at the Nepal House built in the SAARC village, say reports.

A rare honor indeed. Nothing remains now to be said for this grand honor granted to Nepal and its population by the Bhutanese Sovereign. Thanks Your Majesty!

The meeting between Nepal PM and Bhutanese King lasted for almost an hour.

Analysts opine that since His Majesty the King of Bhutan has himself admitted that he was born in Nepal and thus the Nepal Government is advised to confer upon the Bhutan King “Distinguished Honorary Citizen of Nepal” certificate organizing a grand ceremony befitting the sagacity , height and the modesty of the Bhutanese King.

It would be in the wisdom of both Nepal and Bhutan to cash in on from the frankness of the Bhutanese Monarch and initiate diplomatic activities to open Bhutanese embassy in Nepal and act in a manner that has been advised by the King of Bhutan in order to expand Nepal-Bhutan bilateral ties.

  • Raj, Most Nepali people like you are so selfish, irresponsible and corrupt. You people have managed to completely destroy your country which has far more resources and potential than Bhutan. I don't think it's suprising why other countries like bhutan are not happy to have you people immigrate to their country. In future, look within yourself before spouting venom at others.

  • He shows his emotional attachment to Nepal by kicking out the Nepali speaking population there. You have imported buddhism from Nepal so we dont share your culture rather you follow our culture and traditions. How dare you mistreat Nepalis whose very religion you follow? Dont you know Buddha is a Nepali? We Nepalese are stupid. It is high time we stand up for our unique Nepali identity and do not let anyone trample on us. You better show more respect for Nepalis and Nepal, the land of Buddha, whose very religion you follow and mint your money and success on mr bhutanese king.

  • Hello Benny, this is great news. So please start by chasing Lord Gautama Buddha who is the most Nepali of us all. And then please accept Christianity as your faith and make it the official religion of Bhutan. This is the best way you can get rid of any "Nepaliness" of Bhutan.
