The King of Bhutan Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuk and his beautiful wife the Druk Gyaltsuen Queen Jetsun Pema had revealed in connection with a Buddhist ceremony held at the dzong (fortress-monastery) to Punakha on April 15th. This coincided with the 400th anniversary of the day of arrival in Bhutan Tibetan Buddhist master Zhabdrung Ngawang Namgya, informed by the Secretary for Information Bhutanese government.
Too cute with his thick black hair, the Royal Baby -that his parents had presented the previous day at Lhakhang monastery Changangkha in Thimphu- was obviously the hero of the ceremony. Passing of his father's arms to those of his mother, it was also worn by former King The Fourth Durk Gyalpo Jigme Singye Wangchuck, his grandfather who was seen brushing his hair with a small white brush.
Revealing that his son was given the name of Jigme Namgyel Wangchuck, the young king of Bhutan told the thousands gathered in Punakha dzong of that meant Jigme Namgyel fearless and victorious. He stressed that these two adjectives symbolize one hand the great courage that should be hers to overcome any future challenges when serve his country, second victory over all the obstacles it encounters.
