Based on the information provided in the table, the correct observation is:

Bhutan qualifies as an LDC in all major categories.

The reasoning is as follows:

  • Bhutan's per capita gross national income (GNI) is below the LDC threshold of US$1,222, indicating that it qualifies as an LDC in this category.
  • The Human Assets Index (HAI) of 79.5 is above the threshold of 66, which means Bhutan qualifies positively in this area.
  • The Economic and Environmental Vulnerability Index (EVI) of 25.7 is below the threshold of 32, indicating a positive aspect in this category as well.

Since Bhutan qualifies as an LDC based on the GNI while meeting the standards set for the HAI and EVI, it can be concluded that Bhutan meets the criteria classified as an LDC in all major areas.

The other statements, such as concerning human rights or happiness, cannot be inferred directly from the given data without further information.
