Let's not go the long way. I am about to write a short personal perspective about a man I am coming across.
He is Mr Sonam Tobgay aka Sotey. A surveyor by calling. I am witnessing a huge brilliance, determination and professional views not just in my eyes but from others judgement too.
He have a way of keeping the perfect rapport with the engineers, machine operators and all others who are to be dealt in his profession.
Well we were to built a small canal for the monsoon streams. Engineers were hit hard as they couldn't make the machine operator understand their plan. And the canal was naive in a way appeared natural and unplanned. And this man Sotey comes in, explains the drawings of the map in a most simple way and now the canal is on it's way to align just as it is in the map.
Prior his step in. A site engineer was complaining, it's a headache. And after Soteys easy maneuvers, Sotey was telling himself and I eavesdrop. "This is a piece of cake. They have built Panama canal and Suez. Where are we?
And this is not just himself nor me. It's for all Bhutanese who must ask where are we? Yes they have built Panama and Suez canals and we are stuck in this small monsoon canal.
This man I am writing about is really the unsung gem of our country. Many exist in our country doing their job as smartly as they can. We can't afford to lose such gems. Note that there is impending threats like "leaving for Australia" kind.
He grooms unemployed to survey, he has data saved in his head, he cares his helpers, he works for the greater good( he does Over Time albeit he know he is not going to be paid for it) and he is the unsung gem.
