The country of Bhutan has been slow to change to new technologies. The people have been happy with their own lifestyles. The country’s national products have included tourism, agriculture, and the selling of hydroelectric power to India. Life here is based upon the concepts of being happy and preserving the environment. The people have not wanted to change to modern ways. The videography in this program captures the beauty of the country. The young Royals who oversee the country are introducing modern technology via television, the Internet, and amusement parks in an attempt to enhance the lives of their citizens and to have them become more modern in their ways.
