Delivering
a keynote address on "Youth & Unemployment in Bhutan" Her Majesty
said that urbanisation, literacy and exposure to other cultures where life-styles
and priorities were different had created social and psychological problems
alien to the past generations of Bhutanese. Her Majesty explained the government's
policies and programmes to address unemployment and underemployment in
Bhutan, saying that "..the risk of inaction and indifference is simply
too great."
