It's a little known fact...

Sorry to follow up a cheerful and buoyant post about the joys of parenthood with the wet blanket of reality that is international affairs, but hey, I'm a foreign service officer. And I felt this article was too interesting not too share. That is, if you are curious in any way about the hermit kingdom of Bhutan and a little known mass expulsion of ethnic Nepalese in 1992. It impacts somewhat on my work in Nepal. But also, I think it is good for Americans to know that we open our country to many refugees like this. And if you happen to ever meet someone from Bhutan in the States, you may know what brought them here.
