Entrepreneurship opportunity

A good initiative from the Ministry of Labour and Human Resources (MoLHR) and a great opportunity for aspiring entrepreneurs.

MoLHR with the UNDP is providing financial assistance to 20 individuals each from Samtse, Mongar and Zhemgang to start a business. The selection criteria is not clear - so unsure if the selection would be based on qualifications or some business ideas but I definitely urge you to apply for this programme.

Entrepreneurship is not for the faint-hearted. It entails a lot of hard work and plenty of challenges. But the rewards are great. All you need is a lot of passion and determination, and of course a good business idea. There is nothing better than owning your own business and seeing it grow into a success. For an idea of  basic business planning, Tshong-Rig is a good place to start.

There are a few other similar programmes -
  1. Entrepreneur Development Programme offered by MoLHR. Have no details but it is mentioned here.
  2. I also recall a similar programme offered by the Ministry of Economic Affairs.
  3. Loden Foundation's  entrepreneurship programme. Loden provides substantial assistance to good business ideas and seven businesses are already up and running.
