.@BhutanRed is the youngest member of @ifrc. It has gotten off to a great start. To support its formative years, @jagan_chapagain visited Bhutan and had an audience with Their Majesties, with Honourable @tsheringtobgay, @FMBhutan, and @MoHBhutan. And, of course, with the great staff and volunteers of @BhutanRed ! We're grateful for the warm reception and excited about the work ahead!

As I wrap up my official visit to Bhutan, I express my gratitude to Their Majesties the King and Queen for the royal audience, for a very inspiring and thoughtful discussion, for their patronage to Bhutan Red Cross and for their support to the @ifrc . The discussions focused on building a society where the people and the nature can coexist in a peaceful environment.

On today's World First Aid Day, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to our IFRC network teams, who tirelessly provide first aid to millions of people worldwide every day, making a profound difference and saving lives. Let’s commit to spreading awareness about the importance of first aid. Together, we can create a safer and more prepared world, where life-saving skills are accessible to all.

Thank you Prime Minister for a thoughtful discussion and your continuing support to Bhutan Red Cross @BhutanRed.
