Kusukela ekuvulelekeni kwezokuvakasha zasentshonalanga ngo-1974, iBhutan manje ibhekene nendawo yokubamba amasiko, njengoba amadolobha asezindaweni zasemaphandleni abona ukuthi abantu basuke bencipha futhi amadolobha anjengenhloko-dolobha, iThimpu ikhula ngokushesha kunokuba ihlelwe ukubhekana nayo.
Njenganoma yisiphi isizwe esithuthukayo, izici ezicacile zeBhutan ziyahlolwa njengoba isimanjemanje sishaya ngokusebenzisa lezi zigodi zangaphambili zomfundisi. Amakholi asemafoni nomfutho wezisebenzi zangaphandle ukusiza ukwandisa imigwaqo yizimpawu ezicacile ukuthi iBhutan njengezwe isivele ishintsha ngokushesha.
Kodwa akuyona nje ukuziphendukela kwamasiko okudala ukuhlukahluka okuthakazelisayo kuleli zwe labantu abangaba ngu-750,000, yi-juxtaposition yobuhle obunamandla nokunethezeka okucwengile okwenza leli zwe liyingqayizivele.
Uhambo lwethu ezweni ledrako lokuduma liqale njengabantu abaningi, ngendiza eya kwelinye lezindiza ezikude kakhulu emhlabeni, iParo international. I-Nestled snugly phakathi kwezintaba ezimbili eziphakeme, isikhumbuzo sezindiza sisetshenziswa kuphela yi-Druk Air, indiza kazwelonke yombuso ngeBangkok, ngakho-ke sincoma ukuthatha izindiza ezinokunethezeka ezinikezwa yiQatar Airways ezivela e-States ngeDayha ukuya eBangkok noma eSingapore.
