AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Energy & Power: Bhutan’s power ministry says it’s pushing private investment to reach 10,000MW of solar by 2030, while speeding up onshore and offshore gas exploration to tackle the country’s long gas shortage. Health Security: Thimphu’s Royal Centre for Infectious Diseases is ready to start operations next month, with an 80-bed capacity and negative-pressure isolation for highly infectious cases. Urban Politics: The Election Commission has finalized the 2026 Thromde Elections roll and candidates, with 10,309 voters registered across Thimphu and Phuentshogling and campaigns set to run until mid-July. Local Governance: Bhutan’s insurance market is set for a pause—RMA has imposed a six-month moratorium on new insurance licences after a law change allowing one company to offer both life and general insurance. Disaster Watch: Heavy rain has triggered flooding and landslides across the region, with Phuentsholing among the worst hit and roads/bridges disrupted. Regional Links: Bhutan is also moving ahead with Buddhist projects in Lumbini, including a Bhutan Temple Complex and monastery construction.
