In this Information technology age one should have at least a general access to Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) and their applications and capabilities which are endless.
The developments in ICT are recognized worldwide as of major significance. ICT is revolutionizing the way we live and work by changing all aspects of ones life and lifestyle. The world today is being transformed radically and taken over by ICT.
Even in Bhutan ICT is not a new word anymore. Since the introduction of internet in the year 1999 in commemoration with the Silver Jubilee celebration of His Majesty, the 4th king, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, it has played a very important role in essentially promoting the socio-economic developments in our country. ICT has to a large extent also helped in solving unemployment problems in the kingdom.
Recently with the launch of independent Dzongkhag websites, it has helped the Dzongkhag Administration, Paro in performing most of its developmental activities effectively and efficiently.
It has also relieved us of tedious manual workload, thereby enhancing the four pillars of good governance i.e.; efficiency, transparency, accountability and professionalism.
ICT has not only benefited the Dzongkhag but also its counterpart the Gewogs. Even in the Gewog level ICT has now become an important part in carrying out their day-to-day developmental activities.
ICT has in a way helped the Dzongkhag and Gewogs to stand at par thereby achieving the developmental activities at a much faster rate within Paro Dzongkhag and ultimately contributing in achieving the development goals of our country.
We have plans to computerize the systems within the Dzongkhag and the Gewogs as well. We look forward with optimism for greater progress through the use of Information, Communication and Technology.
The stakeholders, beneficiaries and the web browsers can now have easy access to all the much needed data and relevant informations regarding the Dzongkhag and the Gewogs by simply logging into the Dzongkhag Website:
www.dzongkhag.gov.bt/paro.
However, since the Dzongkhag and Gewogs take time in furnishing the needed data we request you to kindly stand with us.
Further more if you wish to share your views/doubts and also wish to offer your suggestions/ feedbacks you can e-mail to:
Kessy2072@hotmail.com or post your feedbacks by clicking on theFeedback tab above.
We look forward to serve you better.
Lastly, the Dzongkhag Administration, Paro would like to acknowledge the Department of Information Technology (DIT), Ministry of Information and Communication’s (MOIC) efforts for launching the Dzongkhag websites.
I wish all the browsers a very enjoyable and happy browsing of our website.
Tashi Delek!!!
