Continue to study and review human rights instruments. Bhutan has always been of the view that the government must first build the necessary social and political institutions and develop its human resources before it assumes any additional international treaty obligations. In the absence of strong institutions and qualified personnel, it remains seriously constrained in fulfilling the obligations as required in the international treaties/conventions. As its capacity is enhanced, Bhutan will consider ratifying relevant international human rights instruments
