The importance of GNH is doubtful

When the imperial family in Bhutan came to Japan, almost all of Japanese TV stations introduced Bhutan as the pro-Japanese country by mentioning that the emperor told all the people in Bhutan to go into mourning soon after Tohoku Earthquake.
I think it is a good news and there is no room criticized.


The problem is the following information about Bhutan. Almost all of Japanese TV stations praised Bhutan for the highest GNH. But, GNH seems unfair criteria. It is because what makes people happy differs in individuals. For example,some people feel happy when they play games, while the others don't feel so. It is impossible for governments to make all the people happy.
I guess Japanese TV stations should ignore such ambiguous criteria as GNH.
