| | Cultural Cleansing in Bhutan:CEMARD-Bhutan |
| | Yet Bhutan does not envision forging this distinct identity to encompass the existing diversity of the nation's cultures. | | | Language is perhaps the area of the most significant impact of the southern Bhutanese culture on the average Drukpa, and the use of Nepali has repeatedly come under fire in the National Assembly. | | | The rare visitor to southern Bhutan would certainly not get a strong taste of Drukpa culture, and most visitors to Bhutan, who are restricted to the north, remain unaware even of the existence of a distinct culture in southern Bhutan. |
