Bhutanese government official and politician (born 1961)
Neten Zangmo (born 23 September 1961)[1] is a Bhutanese government official and politician. She headed Bhutan's Anti-Corruption Commission, and was bestowed with the title of Dasho in 2009.[2] On 29 May 2017 she became leader of Bhutan Kuen-Nyam Party.[3][4] She resigned the position on September 16, 2018, the day after the party failed to make the first round of voting to compete in the general election, but it took nearly two years for the BKP to accept her resignation.[5] The party founder, Sonam Tobgay, told Bhutan Broadcasting Service that it would be difficult to replace Zangmo, who he considered the party's biggest asset. "Within the BKP family, we have high respect for her and also have expectations from her.”[6]
