Wah, seeing Sonam Wangchuk sit there on his hunger strike, it reminded me of the time I had to argue with the district office for three months just to get my scooter’s registration transferred properly. They kept asking for papers that didn’t exist in any real office, making more delays.

Makes me wonder: who gets hurt when we just trust the big words without asking for the numbers?
