0921 #85 Bhutan Modernization

Bhutan has been devoting itself to preserving traditional culture, but modernization seems unavoidable after the remote country expands contacts with the outside world. What kind of impact that modern civilization is bringing to Bhutan?

thats true modernization ruins the country..now they are going to ruin their bodies with so much junk. Tv as well. We think its good for them because we cant live without it..but thats our fault and we are spreading it to spiritual countries.

Modernization is good but we should not forget our culture and rich values.what ever it may be, it our government to make a good policy and we citizen to follow in one direction. that is one nation one people.

@tobs001 still people believe modernization is telephones and electricity etc.you have to understand Buddha explained whole modern science 2500 years ago and people now trying to explore them like a new thing. read Abhi Dharma my dear and try to understand the whole scene. then you will never warry about all these western or any other bullshit. thank you. and trpple jem bless you.

@chill9280 what do you mean? Do you mean its better for people to live without modern conveniences such as electricity, running water, instant communication and a wider variety of food and recreational services to choose from? Improving life expectancy, reducing infant mortality and increasing literacy rates, is that what you mean by "getting fucked with mod" ?? Because those are the factors or changes that define modernization to me and most other Bhutanese.

Please explain your reasoning.
