Eric/All,

Politics and religion come together in the Kingdom of Bhutan.  I don't know about goodness, but in the TV documentary, they concentrate on the GNH, or 
"Gross National Happiness".

Some visitors are allowed.  Visitors must buy a $20 visa good for two weeks, and 
pay all travel and hotel expenses before they arrive.

Their King is the Fourth King.  Their 750,000 population lives mostly in villages and elects leaders.

Their national airline has fleet of 2 jets. Good phone service to the outside world is available.  Cell phones are inoperable.

Make arrangements at:
