AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Ethanol Fuel Row: India’s petroleum ministry says reports that Bhutan rejected an E20 petrol offer are “incorrect,” while Bhutan’s editor of The Bhutanese insists Bhutan’s Department of Trade correspondence supports the earlier claim—keeping the E20 debate front and centre for fuel policy and consumer trust. Banking & Credit: Bhutan Development Bank Limited revised lending rates, lifting fixed-rate home and commercial housing loans while easing most floating rates; Bhutan Insurance Limited also adjusted lending rates based on its Minimum Lending Rate review. Disaster & Housing: Floods in Phuentsholing displaced 41 families after Amochu Housing Colony was hit by torrential rain; earthquake insurance claims at Bhutan Insurance Limited total Nu 5.34 million, with rural properties hardest hit. Infrastructure & Trade: Gelephu–Tareythang road is moving toward tendering after DPR completion; Samtse’s Duarpani route closure is causing hours-long gridlock at the Integrated Check Post. Population Policy: PM urges local leaders to promote the Third Child Plus Programme, with eligible families identified and first payments expected soon. Energy Strategy: Bhutan prioritises green hydrogen over CNG for long-term transport fuel planning. Entrepreneurship & Global Links: Bayer Foundation’s Women Entrepreneurs Award names 15 winners worldwide, including Bhutan, with an accelerator and cash prize aimed at scaling health and food innovations.
