For dear Students of Bhutan.

Gyel Lyon Bhang Sum translates to:  The three power centres: Institutions of Monarchy + the Governance  Establishment + the Masses.

Similar to the oft used  political phrase " Tsawa Sum ". However, fundamental  intent of application differs. Tsawa Sum is a modern term and often pressed into use in advocating dedication and respect to King, Country and People. On which the law of sedition might be  based.  Gyel Lyon Bhang Sum is a traditional national  vision fostering shared trust and responsibility as in national duty among the three tiers of political heirachy. On which the law of harmony or gnh could be based. The two terms are distinctively different as in discipline and cohesion.

His Majesty the King advocated this national vision during 110th National Day Address in Haa Lhakhang Karpo and the Prime Minister relayed it in his national address on the occassion of the celebration of 38th Birth Anniversary of His Majesty the King at Thimphu Changlingmithang.

This means collective endeavour is the ultimate formulae for promoting and achieving Druk Yul sovereign dignity and unity.

Bhutanese citizen of all ages have a role and responsibility for the prosperity and dignity of Druk Yul Kingdom. You are important in nation building goal.

Thank you students for your superb and innovative dances and demonstrations that cream topped the national celebrations on the  joyous occassion of Majestic 38th Royal Birth Anniversary.

May Pelden Drukpa grant you A Happy and Successful Academic of Year of 2018 ! ! !
