    PROCEEDINGS AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE 75th SESSION OF THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY HELD FROM 20TH JUNE TO 16TH JULY, 1997 I. OPENING CEREMONY The 75th Session of the National Assembly of Bhutan began on the morning of the auspicious 15th Day of the 5th Month of the Female Year of the Fire Ox corresponding to June 20, 1997 with the performance of the traditional ceremony of the Zhugdrel Phuntsum Tsogpai Tendrel. In his opening address, the Speaker of the National Assembly, Dasho Kunzang Dorji, welcomed His Majesty the King, the representatives of the Central Dratshang and the Rabdeys, ministers and officials representing the government and the representatives of the people. He expressed his deep gratitude for the trust and confidence reposed in him by His Majesty the King and the hon’ble members by electing him as Speaker of the National Assembly. He pledged to serve the Tsa-Wa-Sum with unwavering devotion and loyalty and uphold the age-old institution of the Palden Drukpa. The Speaker also extended his Tashi Delek to the new representatives of the Dratshang, the government and the people who were attending the National Assembly for the first time. He reminded all the members of the very important role they had to play in the decision making process of the country and in ensuring socio-economic progress in Bhutan. Our country, the rich paradise of medicinal herbs and sandalwood, was blessed by Ugyen Guru Rimpoche as his sacred abode, said the Speaker. It had also been blessed by many sages and revered Lamas, the foremost of whom was the great spiritual leader Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal who unified the country into a sovereign, independent nation.

We must raise, with all our effort, the less fortunate so that they may, at the earliest, begin to partake in the opportunities brought by modernization and progress. The government has provided education to our youth. But for the nation to prosper for all time, a sound education must be succeeded by access to the right jobs and responsibilities, so that our youth may bloom as individuals and at the same time serve their Nation well. The recent Rupee shortage is a serious problem. I feel it is a reminder that, as a Nation, we must exercise our traditional sense of caution and work even harder as we address the challenges of the time. For no matter what challenges lie ahead, it is only the Bhutanese citizen who can protect and safeguard Bhutan. - His Majesty The King’s address to the nation during the 105th National Day celebrations, 17th December 2012, in Thimphu. 5 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag 6 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag དཔལ་辡ན་འ宲ུ་ུག筴་⼍ Royal Government of Bhutan PRIME MINISTER 7 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag དཔལ་辡ན་འ宲ུ་ུག筴་⼍ Royal Government of Bhutan PRIME MINISTER 8 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag དཔལ་辡ན་འ宲ུ་ུག筴་⼍ Royal Government of Bhutan PRIME MINISTER 9 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag 10 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Punakha Dzongkhag TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.
