As we come together to celebrate the 117th National Day of Bhutan, let us take a moment to reflect on the values that define us as a nation, guided by the vision of Gross National Happiness (GNH). This day reflects our shared aspirations for harmony, progress in education, social entrepreneurship, and the preservation of our culture.
At Loden Foundation, we are committed to walking this journey with you. Through education, we aim to nurture your inner qualities of curiosity, empathy, and determination, while equipping you with the skills needed to thrive in a complex world. Through entrepreneurship, we encourage you to embrace innovation and enterprise with ethics and mindfulness, creating a self-reliant, caring, and sustainable Bhutan. Through cultural preservation, we remind ourselves of who we are and where we come from, ensuring that our rich traditions continue to inspire us in meaningful ways.
On this 117th National Day, let us pledge to work together where wisdom and compassion are not just ideals but lived experiences. Let us stay rooted in humility; seek success but anchor it in service to others; embrace change but never forget the values that make us Bhutanese. May our collective efforts, guided by the enduring vision of His Majesty the King, bring our nation ever closer to the ideals of GNH.
Let us celebrate our shared heritage, our boundless potential, and the enduring spirit of unity that binds us together.
Tashi Delek!
