26th Aug 2007

The Bhutan Times website has once again being blocked by the Bhutanese government, a block on the website was put in place a month ago but appeared to have been lifted.

Confirmation of the block was sent to Bhutan Times via email.

"We are getting reports from readers in Bhutan that the Bhutan Times (BT) has been blocked again and the site statistics seem to confirm this. We aren't sure what exactly is going on but certainly feel this is a highly regrettable action, reports The Bhutan Times.

"In the mean time we maintain that our readers will be best placed to judge whether we are deserving of such attention from Bhutan Infocomm and Media Authority (BICMA)."

The Bhutan Infocomm and Media website can be located here bicma.gov.bt
