The small Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan is a landlocked country sandwiched between two Asian powers-India and China. While traditionally Bhutan had been identified as "the land of Buddha", of late, it has managed to carve out a unique space and recognition for itself as "the land of Gross National Happiness (GNH)". The political structure of Bhutan follows the familial model, King as father knows best, the leader must be obeyed and the individual sacrifices for the collective good, articulated on the basis of Tsa-wa-sum (King, Country and People). The roots of all such values lie in the deep understanding of the philosophy of Buddhism.
