BBC环球慢速英语 第482期:不丹——幸福的国度(4)

voice 2: In the kingdom of Bhutan, happiness is the most important goal. The kingdom of Bhutan is in the Himalayas north of India. King Wangchuck rules the country. The King is very clear about the way he wants the country to develop. He proclaimed that, 'Gross national happiness is more important than gross national product'. The King believes that the happiness of his people is more important than increasing the wealth of the country. It may be a good goal to have. But it is very difficult to reach. Not everyone in Bhutan is happy. The country has its fair share of difficulties. But it is the only country in the world that has happiness at the centre of its government policy.
声音2：在不丹王国，幸福是最重要的目标。不丹王国位于印度以北的喜马拉雅山脉。不丹由旺楚克国王统治。旺楚克国王非常清楚他希望不丹如何发展。他曾对外宣告：“国民幸福总值比国民生产总值重要。”旺楚克国王相信，人民的幸福比国家财富的增长要重要。这也许是一个好的目标。但却很难实现。并不是每个不丹公民都能感到幸福。该国在公平分配方面存在困难。但不丹是世界上唯一一个将幸福作为国家政策中心的国家。
