Their "Happiness" marketing was always bullshit.

Ask the Lhotshampa (ethnic Limbu, Gurung, and other Janajatis) who were ethnically cleansed by the Ngalop majority 20-30 years ago.

It's a banana (tsampa?) monarchy that only exists as a buffer between India and China, and it's entire economy is basically owned by Tata Group (who owns and manages Bhutan's hydroelectric dam used for exports) and Indian construction companies (who build all the roads and resorts in the country).
