It was 9th
of November, 2013 and 9th convocation was organized by Royal
University of Bhutan (RUB) in RTC, Thimphu. More than two thousand graduates
from nine colleges who have graduated in the year 2011 and 2012 gathered at RTC
football play ground with highly hopes to inject His Majesty’s speech in their
life. I along with my two colleagues represented our college. We were
enthusiastic to see and hear His Majesty potent speech. At 10:50 am everyone
saw His Majesty arriving in chipdrel
ceremony and the graduates were graced upon His Majesty’s presence.

After the presentation
of graduates by Director, Department of Academic Affairs, the dying awaited
period was fragmented by His Majesty dominant speech. The bold voice came in
everyone’s ear making our ear much more comfortable.
His Majesty
congratulated all the graduates for successfully completing their course and
thanked all the teachers who played a vigorous role in making them who they
are. His Majesty also shared upon the concern he has in preserving the culture
and maintaining peace and prosperity in the country. He also added that as a
graduate and as an individual we must not quit in whatever we do instead we
must continue our journey towards achieving the things. The striking quote that
he shared to the entire graduates was “where there is a will there is a way”. We
Bhutanese are unique and creative and His Majesty believes in every Bhutanese
that we will not take failure as a last option while working. He concluded by
wishing the entire graduates a tenacity, clarity of thoughts and stamina of
boundless wisdom.
The program
ended with flawless cultural items presented by RTC students and a lunch for
the entire crowd.
That is also what i exactly saw on 9th November. It was in deed a great pleasure for me to also take part and participate in convocation.
