It was long journey on bumpy roads. It takes six hours from Tingtibi to reach my site office at
Nimshong. Again it takes two hours to reach the actual work sites. It is tough
and tiring even in vehicle on those far roads. Gewog road construction is going
on for Shingkhar and Bardo gewog under Zhemgang dzongkhag. I went to sites for
handing taking formalities to complete.
I was told to be careful with
work since the area is politically sensitive. I don’t understand why. The only
thing I know is that I am taking charge for the service of dear people. Road is
necessary for the development to progress. I never expect people disagree and
nurse a grievance.

It was inspiring to see labors,
machine operators, site supervisors and Junior Engineer work hard to reach the
road to destiny, gewog centers. The very
tiring work to drill and blast those rocky terrains is dangerous. Despite their
hard work they are not happy to hear those hard words of people’s disagreement.
They get demoralized.
I plea, people Please come to a
consensus. Let us construct and build for your own benefits. Work is getting
delay day by day.
And for time pass I wrote the
poem after listening to people how Zhemgang and Bumthang is connected. It would
be great if I get time to reach Bumthang and Mongar from Shingkhar, Zhemgang by
walk.
From Zhemgang Shingkhar to Bumthang
Shingkhar,
For excursion that seem convivial forth,
Hoping best to explore beyond
It would be time passing great.
I shalt go~
