Since the beginning, the majority of my trips to different sites in Bhutan have related to hydroelectric projects. The hydroelectric project at Chukha was the country had undertaken with financial collaboration with the Government f India. This was an Endeavour to utilize its water resources and to become economically developed. The projects at Tale, Kurichu, and Puna-tangchu were executed in succession in the following decades. So, since my first visit, I could see how fast the country had executed various infrastructural projects like roads, bridges, air connectivity, and schools. Simultaneously the influx of the first generation from the rural belts to major commercial hubs could also be noticed.
Initially, I had an opportunity to closely observe the Bhutanese countrymen on their maiden trip to these project sites and towns. The people employed in the projects were invariably unskilled and mostly illiterate. They were very shy, quiet. and courteous, and always found it uncomfortable to mix freely with the Indians who were hired for the execution of technical jobs.
