It has facilitated the expansion of economic and political cooperation between Korea and the partner countries, contributing to an active policy dialogue for both parties to disseminate their own development experience and gain benefit from the mutual learning. KSP focuses on customized solutions for each partner country’s economic, social, and administrative settings, fostering and strengthening its policymaking capacity and global networks for development cooperation. The 2018/19 KSP with Mongolia II was conducted by the Korea Development Institute (KDI), Dohwa Engineering and Young Jin Advisory Group to establish a policy research institute in the urban development sector of Paraguay. The project began with the request of the Ministry of Construction and Urban Development (MCUD), Mongolia. The Mongolian government is currently planning to build a new city with multiple functions, including logistics, distribution, industry, entertainment, and housing, in Khushig Valley, an area near the now-completed New Ulaanbaatar International Airport. Through the development of NUBIA Aero-City, we intend to promote different industries, trading, and investments in Mongolia by connecting the airport with surrounding cities. Based on Korea’s experience, the KSP project in Mongolia (2018/19 KSP with Mongolia II) has analyzed the development conditions of the new airport in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, and proposed a plan to promote the NUBIA Aero-City project. The cooperation between experts of Korea’s urban planning and real estate development and officials of Mongolia’s Ministry of Construction and Urban Development has been well accomplished, and it can be assessed that the search for deeper research and policy alternatives has been faithfully carried out. In particular, local government officials, including the MCUD, the Municipality of Ulaanbaatar (MUB), and the Ulaanbaatar Urban Development Corporation (UBDC), have continued to show their active interests and opinions on the KSP project, which allowed specific policy proposals to be drawn. Through the KSP project, a cooperative relationship with the Mongolian government is expected to expand significantly for the future, which can be seen as an achievement that is consistent with the purpose of the KSP project. Through this KSP project, the implementation, management, and development procedures of the Incheon Free Economic Zone were identified and derived possible implications and timing for Mongolia while the major anchor functions needed for the development of NUBIA Aero-City were presented. Policy suggestions were also made on specific methods for the promotion of the project for reviewing areas where public-private joint investment is possible, predicting the real estate demands, and financing plans at each stage. The analysis of Mongolia’s urban development project and institutional conditions has been written in collaboration with Mongolian experts, and it can be assessed that the process of seeking future tasks presented a practical way to help through continuous discussions with Korean researchers. I extend my profound gratitude to Mr. Kang, Sungrae, the principal investigator, and his research team for their hard work and dedication to the successful completion of the 2018/19 KSP with Mongolia II. We also sincerely appreciate the continuous support and contribution from Mr. Gunbold Baatar, director general of the MCUD, Mongolia. Lastly, we send out special thanks to the Government of Mongolia, including MUB, and all the advisers and consultants for their continued interest and support for the establishment of the policy recommendation for developing NUBIA Aero-city. In return for their dedication to the research, we promise our extended support and cooperation in the future. Chang-Min You Vice President Dohwa Engineering Co., LTD.

  • Searching for Antidotes to Globalization : Local Insitutions at Mongolia’S Sacred Bogd Khan Mountain
    SEARCHING FOR ANTIDOTES TO GLOBALIZATION : LOCAL INSITUTIONS AT MONGOLIA’S SACRED BOGD KHAN MOUNTAIN by David Tyler Sadoway B.E.S. Hons. Co-op (Urban & Regional Planning), University of Waterloo, 1991. Research Project Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Resource Management in the School of Resource and Environmental Management Report No. 291 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY April 2002 This work may be reproduced in whole or in part. ii Approval page iii A b s t r a c t The Bogd Khan Mountain (Uul) is a sacred natural and cultural site—an island-like forest-steppe mountain massif revered for centuries by Mongolians. This sacred site is also a 41, 651 hectare state-designated ‘Strictly Protected Area’ and a listed UNESCO Biosphere Reserve of global significance (1996). Bogd Khan Uul is adjacent to the nation's capital, largest and fastest growing city—Ulaanbaatar. This case study employs an inter-scale research frame to draw linkages between current resource management problems at Bogd Khan Uul while at the same time examines the capacity of local, national and multilateral institutions to address these. In the process the research provides a glimpse of centuries old Mongol traditions—human ingenuity shaped by understandings that have co-evolved with the cycles of nature. The study provides contemporary insights into the dramatic changes that affected Mongolia and its institutions during its tumultuous global integration in the final decade of the second millennium. The study’s inter-scaled Globalocal Diversity Spiral (GDS) framework focuses upon Bogd Khan Uul site-specific issues of forest and vegetation over-harvest, animal overgrazing and problematic tourism development; and key contextual issues of material poverty and local traditions.

It heavily affects vegetation and often leads to desertification. It also extends vehicle operating distance and time, resulting high transport cost. 2) Road Condition in Winter Multiple shifting tracks are covered with snow in winter and become slippery due to uneven surface together with compacted snow. Vehicular movement becomes risky and travel speed is forced to decrease considerably. 3) Existing Wooden Bridge Existing wooden bridge is severely deteriorated and danger always exists for heavy vehicles to go across. This is serious cause of disruption for traffic to cross the river. Heavy vehicles go across the river only when the flow is shallow.
