The current DNT government, under Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay, is prioritizing equitable development across all towns, not focusing on Samtse, the country’s fifth dzongkhag thromde. The Prime Minister acknowledged Samtse’s potential as an economic center but insisted that the advantages it provides must be considered in light of the country’s overall progress. It is true that Santse has several advantages. It is an obvious choice for investment because to its size, population, agricultural output, and advantageous location along West Bengal. With the establishment of the Gyatsung Academy in Jamtsholing and the expansion of the industries at Dhamdhum and Norbugang Industrial Park, the dzongkhag is already seeing economic activity. Bhutan’s economic potential is enhanced by projects like railway link, Yoeseltse airport, and regional hospital.
