Show Notes
This week's podcast is a bit off the beaten track. We speak with Sherub Tharchen in Paro in Bhutan about his country. We cover some of the basics, including the country's location between two neighbors with high levels of corruption, and then discuss how the current King of Bhutan tackled corruption in a way that, while probably not replicable in most countries, has nevertheless had great success for the Bhutanese.
