I just learnt the good news from BBS that you are now elected the new President of PDP. You absolutely deserve it. <br/>Now, as we move forward, let me offer my loyal opinion.<br/><br/>I see you in the same situation where President Obama of the United States is at the moment. President Obama inherited a nation in turmoil. Yours, an ailing Party with some serious debts. 4 million is not a big deal but a fair share of trouble for a relatively small country like ours. <br/>Now like I mentioned sometime ago in one of your entries, this is the time to take a long breath and reflect back on what went wrong in the past. The former Lynpo, Sangay Ngedup did an honorable job by accepting the (whether or not justified)blame onto himself. This should give your Party a fresh start, a new beginning. <br/>One serious mistake the Party made in the past was; they spent what they did not have. Manage your budget wisely this time. Find a new approach to fund raising. <br/>Analyze your campaign strategies. Reconsider and assess the key Campaign resources of time, money, talent and people. Give a new life to your Website. Encourage people to take part in it. <br/>I have no doubt in your accountability and transparency. One last word; Way to go PDP!<br/><br/>Best Wishes ahead. Trashi Delek and congratulations!

He infact is a hero because he resigned with dignity and wisdom. My respect for him has doubled and PDP will always have his blessing. <br/>Even if he was not given a "Tama" he has left a lasting impression of a "man who would walk the talk" Cheers Lyonpo and remember things will get worst before it becomes better and only tough people can sail through it. You have our support. Lyonpo Sangay’s resignation as the party president is really sad but at the same time he did it with good intention.
