traditions.

long journey Bhutanese refugees have traveled and noted that he was
impressed with their industriusness in getting jobs and buying houses.
He emphasized that it is important that the young people do well in
school, that everyone needs to learn the cultural ways of hte United
States, as well as remember the community's language and culture so that
the young people honor and respect the deprivation and hardships the
elders have endured on their behalf.
