I am particularly pleased that PDP is meeting on sunday. I'm always eager to hear from PDP. "PLEASE CONVIENCE H.E. Sangay TO CONTINUE WITH PRESIDENTSHIP OF PDP AND ALSO THE CANDIDATES TO CONTINUE IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE PARTY & BHUTANESE DEMOCRACY"<br/>In the first election, many did not know what to do, what happened and what would happen. <br/>"A SORRY DPT VOTER" Honorable OL, Your interview with BBS on 18/3/09 was very democratic and open.

Its a known fact that we are facing acute shortage of doctors and health workers, but present scenario explicitly shows some compromises in the quality. Though I may sound bit greedy or whatsoever, what I am trying to push up through this argument is to consider the academic performances for those private students(if ever given). "All"(irrespective of their academic stand) shouldn't be the beneficiary of this generous grant from RGOB. I suggest accessing and following up with their grades every semester and accordingly regulating grant would be appropriate. "One must demonstrate satisfactory academic performance to gain this grant." After all we the citizen shouldn't be handed by half-baked doctors from crappy Universities.<br/>BUT I JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DON'T RAISE NUMBER OF MBBS SLOTS!!!!!<br/>cheers!

Simply put - it's safe to assume that the students privately studying medicine (am not speculating on their academic capabilities)are from well-to-do elite stocks. The government's generous handout, in view of the prevailing drought of medical professionals makes their transition into that hallowed ring of noble and revered profession more comfortable. They will then reap all the benefits of being a qualified doctor as we simply do not have enough of them! So they will spontaneously gallop up the social ladder. And lo, you have another remote-controlled or physically driven instance of that classic social hegemony already in place!

They have already committed this and hope they won’t change their decision and they have to grant to all medical students no matter whether there are 300 or 400 medical students.
But I feel its sort of discrimination to other private students because they also citizen of Bhutan and when others are availing the grant they also should get it at par with them otherwise their decision is unconstitutional (no equality)
I will quote what health minister said to Bhutan times;
“Lyonpo Zangley Dukpa said the cabinet took the decision to provide the grant after the students and their parents approached the government for help”
If this is the case then its time for parents of other private students to wake up and approach to the ministry. If they are able to grant the request of parents of medical students then they should do the same to others also because constitution guarantees the equality.
“The health minister said that even the prime minister was approached for financial help by the private medical students in Sri Lanka during his visit last year”.
But as far as I remember government scholarships were the once who approached for stipend revision but not the private medical students who approached for help….
Nu.300, 000 is huge amount and even scholarships are not getting this much, so if you have sons and daughters who completed 12 from science background better withdraw it if they are pursuing or to be pursued degree in either of the colleges in Bhutan. I swear 300000per year is more than sufficient to pursue any medical course especially in India.

As far as I know our government made two remarkable decisions since commencement of new democratic government, firstly they recruited general graduates for PGDNL which is actually exclusively meant for law graduates and secondly they have decided to grant 300,000 to private medical students….
We are waiting for their third remarkable decision…..
No offense just exercising my freedom of expression
