Sakteng Wildlife Sanctuary
- 13 Jul 2020
- Recently, China had objected to the grant for Sakteng Wildlife Sanctuary (SWS) in eastern Bhutan’s Trashigang district bordering India and China, claiming that the location was disputed, during the virtual meeting of the Global Environment Facility (GEF).
- The GEF Council gathered to decide on funding for various environmental projects across the world. The work programme was adopted, as the majority of the GEF council members supported Bhutan’s view and the draft summary of the chair was approved by the council, despite objection from the Chinese council member.
- Bhutan’s western and middle sector (Jakarlung, PasamlungChumbi Valley) have been in dispute with China but, the eastern sector has not been part of the boundary talks and China had not claimed rights over Sakteng wildlife sanctuary earlier.
