Dear
Sir Thinley Wangkay Dorji,
I
am glad and one of the recent followers of you after your World Championship at
Ulanbataar, Mongolia this year. It was a
pride waves for tiny Himalayan Bhutan and an inspirational for many Gymnasium enthusiasts.
I see you support and your love for football and equally enjoying basketball.
Well,
now with school children done with 2017 academic year and winter recess begun, I
feel you have hands at least to be responsible as a world stage champ.
I
may be wrong and you would not be responsible to what I would like to make request
on you. I am writing since you are in some way attached with these two
institutions. Many would appreciate if you could bridge Basketball fanatics in
Thimphu to Bhutan Olympic Committee and Thimphu Primary School Management.
Pardon
me, it is not complain but the situation I faced myself and many others going
through for some time. Basketball courts in Thimphu are limited and the most
happening courts are Swimming pool and TPS. I have read once in news that the
swimming pool in-house court is not safe anymore but open for game at players’
risk. At a similar stand TPS court does not have proper lighting in place and
also do not provide Basketball.
Wangkay
Sir, I witnessed you had to put up temporary tube light to brighten the sight at
TPS recently for your game. Since you could
directly connect to TPS, my request to you would be to request TPS management
to fix the flood lighting there. I bet a small raise in court fees from existing
Nu: 500 (Normal Booking fees) and Nu: 700 (with Lighting) would not be an issue
so long lighting ambience is there.
Bhutan
Olympic Committee, if possible something as an institution could collaborate
with Thimphu Primary School. I would not ask for more but some basketball and
timer board to the least. Suggesting that the Bhutan Basketball Federation provide
some basketball (free or at discounted price) and timer board and in turn TPS
collect some nominal fees from every matches played and pay the federation.
I
thank you TPS for having given room for some cardio for many. I wish Sir Wangkay
could accept my request constructively. Anticipating a brightening change.
