Recent revelations of embezzlement at our iconic heritage sites have shaken the trust in one of the country’s most vital sectors—tourism. In a probe initiated in June and July, a shocking case of fraud involving 37 police officials, 377 tour guides and drivers, and five counter officials has come to light. These individuals, entrusted with protecting and promoting Bhutan’s cultural treasures, have been found guilty of siphoning monument fees at renowned locations such as Paro Taktshang and Punakha Dzong. The incident has been forwarded to the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC), but the damage inflicted on the tourism sector demands more than a mere investigation—it requires decisive action.
