About Bhutan GDP YoY
The most important sectors of the Bhutanese economy are hydroelectricity, tourism and agriculture. The government has focused on the development of low volume, high quality tourism, as a way to protect the environment and mitigate the impact of disrupting influences on the domestic culture. Bhutan maintains close fiscal and trading ties with India. Electricity sales to India account for the country's largest share of foreign currency earnings.
