education key factor : Except for Haa dzongkhag, foresters around the country have experienced a relatively quiet year where forest fires are concerned. This comes as a relief especially considering the widespread damage done to Bhutan's forests last year where over 102 forest fires damaged about 29,529.13 acres of forests worth Nu.147.94 million from January to March.
