THIMPHU, 29 March, 2021 (TON): The task force of the 21st Century Economic Roadmap has proposed to establish an Economic Development Board (EDB) to carry out necessary reforms in the economic and public sectors.
It was suggested to establish the EDB under the Prime Minister’s Office.
The proposal seems to be based on the past experience where the taskforce saw that only having good ideas and pronouncing new policies were not enough.
However, the members stressed that there was a need for real instruments to carry out any reforms through such policies.
The 21st-century roadmap said, “However, there was no single agency that assumed a lead role in implementing the policy.”
Considering the proposal under focus, the members viewed the need for EDB after realizing that there were several shortcomings when it came to the implementation of various policies under different agencies.
