Oct 17: Washington based Bhutanese Community Resource Center(BCRC) organized a cultural presentation to mark its first anniversary on October 16, 2011.
The event was held at Greenriver Community College, Auburn Campus, which ran for five hours. The program constituted dozens of cultural dances and few solo songs.
Khem Rizal who headed the cultural committee narrated and managed the event. According to the organizers, about 600 audiences were present in the event.
Youth volunteers and students of the University of Washington also highlighted about the ‘Washington Lets Go To College Project’,which is an initiative of 2011 graduates from Bhutanese community in Washington.
Honoring high school graduates of past years was also a part of the program. Forty five graduates were honored with certificates of appreciation from the community. BCRC Chairperson Tanka Dhital emphasized on the importance of education and suggested parents to take part in their children’s academic performances.
BCRC is a local non-profitable organization working for Bhutanese in Washington State promoting the culture and has been conducting cultural events twice a year.
SO far as I know BCRC not being funded with any doners has been being able to bring lot of programs there in WA. Keep doing good job guys there at Washington. I am proud with all Bhutanese who are all united to give a real shape for the community.
Once again solute for your great spirite from Adelaide, Australia.
I am one of the attendees of the bcrc program on 18th. The reports seems it is too much exaggerated about the programs and the number of the people. there were only around 125 people but mentioned around 600 which is fault report to BNS.
KENT, WA.
Hat’s up to you all Bhutanese folks there at Washington, and regards to the whole team of BCRC for presenting this type of social and cultural events.
I am wondering, does BCRC or any Bhutanese in WA invited any of our Indian friends in this program? Where did he came from, Kent Ravi Video or K.K Market? I am not sure. However, this poor Indian is a Liar. He is creating dump confusion to all of us.
To be honest, I was also there at the program organized by BCRC .There were lot of people coming and going, so it was hard to state the exact presence, but I am sure if we count every individual those who attend the function, there would be more than seven hundred folks.
I think, next time we might need to request this poor guy to be a reporter of BCRC programs. Mr.Indian, if you post your name and email address here in the comment box, I would definitely ask BCRC members to offer this position to you.

As in the news says BCRC is a non profit but i do not cosider or any one who knowa bcrc from close will not consider it as non profit but definately it is a political organization. The members are voted and only few among the members are able candidate to work in non profit. ……. Let me not go more with this…. I supprt Indian there were roughly 100 to 125 pepole in the program and it was false report to BNS and would like to request BNS to verify information before posting it. Leela way u support the news is just to encourage our great politician in Washington but if u go on reality they r trying to rule our community and trying to drive our community in their wishesh.
So do you mean those who are elected by our fellow Bhutanese in WA are politician?
What are your evidence?
My friend, if we stop to drive our community, how would the progress happened, how would we be identified? Let us not forget what cause the back fall of our native American (Red Indian) here in United State.
Next, what does it mean by able candidates to work in non profit? Any one can work for their community, qualification should not be the obstacles. I am wondering, is there a qualification list to be fulfilled to be a part of non profit? I am not sure what you want to argue here?
I would appreciate to discuss with you in further, if you would not mind to post your real name. If not do not waste your time by posting weak, fallacious, and misleading statements and arguments.
As an individual Bhutanese living in WA, I have had observed some of our corrupted Bhutanese individual who does not want strong unity and solid coalition in Bhutanese community. We all are aware what these self smart people are dreaming for?
So, friend let us work with good attitude, clean spirit, and clear vision to do some thing great to our community. Otherwise let us not counter our folks who at least have been dedicated to do some thing for our progress.

So do you mean that we Bhutanese in WA have had elected politicians to represent BCRC or in general the whole Bhutanese community in WA? If so, then What are your evidence? I would agree on you if you would be able to prove that, if not then you are in great confusion.
My friend, if we stop to drive our community, how would the progress happened, how would we be identified? Just imagine, if some organization or government departments call Bhutanese community to present our issues and challenges, who would we appoint to speak on our behalf. Do you think we all need to go by individual? Or you think that special body is need to work in this type of situation. This is just an example, there are many other aspect that can not be solved or workout by an individual in absence of strong community based body to represent us. It would be wise to make an deep observation, “what cause the back fall of our native American (Red Indian) community here in United State.”
Next, what do you mean by able candidates to work in non profit? Any one can work for their community, qualification should not be an obstacle. I am wondering, is there any qualification list that need to be fulfilled just to be a part of non profit? I am not sure what you want to argue here?
I would appreciate to discuss with you in further if and only if, you would not mind to post your real name. If not, do not waste your time by posting weak, fallacious, and misleading statements and arguments.
As an individual Bhutanese living in WA, I have had observed some of our corrupted Bhutanese individual who does not tolerate strong unity and solid coalition in Bhutanese community. But we all Bhutanese need to be aware, what these self smart people are dreaming for?
So, friend let us work with good attitude, clean spirit, and clear vision to do some thing great to our community. Otherwise let us not counter and hinder our folks who at least have been dedicated to do some thing on our behalf.

Response to Indian and grown up.
I was in the spot before the program and left after it was formally ended.The BCRC 1st anniversary program took place in such a hall which has the capacity of more than a thousand people.Three fourth of the hall was occupied by our people.I have seen a few American as well.The person who did not agree with the attenees might have counted the numbers of car parked outside at the parking lot.
I wonder how dare the other guy said BCRC is a political organization because its members come through election.According to BCRC bylaws the board members are elected every year.Aren’t there any non-profit organization in this world composited through election? How is the U N Secretary General is elected?Is that a political or non political organization?
BCRC has state approved Bylaws which guides and govern the organization. It has its mission objectives to serve the people.Do you have any evidence to prove that BCRC is trying to rule over the community?How do you understand the term rule?
AS a well wisher of BCRC and a Bhutanese Community in WA would like to request ‘grown up’ to post the qualification and abilities needed to serve the non profit organizations.Why don’t a person like”grown up” can be an advisor for BCRC if he/she has broad knowledge of non profits related or college degree related to it.
Otherwise,the comments of “Indian and grown up” are as like a Nepali saying” Badar le aafno ghar pane banaudai na tara aru ko ghar pane vatkau cha” Monkey never make a house for its own but distorys others.
Lastly,I strongly say BCRC is a non profit people based organization.It works for the need of the people based on its bylaws.Any Bhutanese without any vested interest can work for BCRC instead passing unhealthy comments without having the broad knowledge of the subject matters.
Thanks!
A well wisher of BCRC
and Bhutanese in WA.
How can Lila Kafley only be so smart to bring confusion regarding bcrc program and trying to justify about the bcrc functions. But how can bcrc grow up by including a guy like Lila kafley , who was able to robe/theft a PENDRIVE from a computer company where he used to work and got fired already. hOW cannn this type of people support the community and work for the goodness of others.
worthless news all given by this Kafley. He is just a carried fox by a jackle.
A well wisher of BCRC.
My dear friend I know, now you failed to argue on the topic (I mean you loose the game in transparency) . So, to make you feel at least happy, you are throwing me a misleading and annoying allegation. Now, you are switching a broad discussion topic toward an unnecessary arguments, because you don’t have enough evidence to back you up, and you are day dreaming to enforce red mark on me. Yes, it is your right to disagree with me if you at least agree and believe on what I am saying.
If you think you would be happy and be able to pull me down by your useless and childish criticism, then add more- say I had stolen three Laptops and two Tablets. Say I got fired, and I have black
back ground and red mark in my work history, and also add that I wouldn’t be able to work in USA because of this robbery. Or make a story what ever you like, at-least if that keeps you cool down.
Note- Next time, include your real name and address, so people might at least read your comments. If you got mad, go and ask candy with your mum. Enjoy your candy!
I am extremely sorry for all other readers, it is all intended to the individual who put the childish comment just above.
Thanks!
