The fourth king of Bhutan with his vision implemented GNH as the Development philosophy of a nation under his good leadership. When the rest of the countries still depend on the GDP as the indicator of development, Bhutan for decades has been depending on GNH as its indicator. The people of Bhutan are happy and the nation measures Happiness based on 4 pillars: they are
1# The socio-economic development
2# Preservation of culture and Tradition
3# Conservation environment
4# Good Governance
