GANGTOK: Sikkim gets its name from a combination of two Limbu words: su, which means 'new', and khyim, which means 'palace' or 'house'. With its hospitality, power, health andpharma sectors booming, Sikkim is not only inviting investors, it is all set to play the development partner.

Chief minister Pawan Chamling, outlining the broad parameters of Sikkim's new development model, said land will not be a constraint for willing investors and promised full cooperation for infra needs.
