Information input
Definition: Transportation means moving from one place to another with the use of one means.
Types of transportations used are;
1) land transportation
2) Air transportation
3) Water transportation.
v What is mean by Land transportation?
Land transportation means traveling from one place to another with the use of car, bus, taxi, horse which travels on land.
v What is mean by Air transportation?
Air transportation means traveling from one place to another with the use of airplane, helicopter, which travels in the airspace.
v What is mean by Water transportation?
Water transportation means traveling from one place to another with the use of boat, ship, which travels on the water.
In Bhutan, water transportation is not applicable as Bhutan has fast flowing rivers. The force of water is too high and flows in a narrow valley which makes the water transportation not possible.
