Jigme Thinley. That's the name of the PM of Bhutan. Once upon a time they had no traffic lights and regularly topped international happiness polls.

Now, instead of working to increase the country's GNP, they are removing greed from the sociopolitical equation and pursuing GNH (gross national happiness) instead.
