Driglam Namzha Nyi

The Driglam Namzha is Bhutan's official code of conduct, and it governs everything from how to bow to where to sit at a gathering. The kabney, a ceremonial scarf, comes in different colors depending on your rank: saffron for the King and Je Khenpo, orange for ministers, red for dashos, white for commoners. Every Bhutanese person has worn the wrong kabney at least once and felt the social shame of it for weeks.
