I am very happy to be here to attend the 14th RUB Convocation for the graduates of 2018 at Royal Institute of Management, Simtokha on 24th May 2019. Therefore, I would be very grateful to the Royal University of Bhutan for organizing such event for all graduates and also grateful to Jigme Namgyel Engineering College, Management and Department of Electrical Engineering for allowing me to attend at the 14th Convocation.

During the 14th RUB Convocation at RIM the His Majesty the King’s quoted valuable words to RUB graduates;

Today, as we inherit a strong and secure nation, the sacred responsibility of nation building has been bestowed upon the people of our generation including me as your King.

At this critical juncture, it would be important to reflect on and understand the timeless values and intuitive attributes of our ancestors that enabled them to achieve phenomenal success.

  • Firstly, it is the values emanating from Tha Damtse, the sublime trust and bond among the unique concept of the Tsa Wa Sum.

  • Secondly, it is Dremba, the innate sensibility of the Bhutanese, which has contributed immensely to our achievements as a nation.
  • Thirdly, it is the concept of Tendrel, which transcends our common understanding of auspiciousness to also include interdependence and collective efforts to meet our collective goals and aspirations.
