  • Narrative Report on Study Tour of Mongolian Delegates to Jaipur
    A Study Tour of Municipal Government Official from Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia to Jaipur, India Organised by CUTS International With the support of The Asia Foundation, India December 08-10, 2015 Introduction Mongolia is a landlocked country in east-central Asia. It is bordered by Russia to the north and China to the south, east and west. While they do not share a border, Mongolia is separated from Kazakhstan by only 36.76 kilometres (22.84 mi). Ulaanbaatar, the capital and largest city, is home to about 45 percent of the population. Mongolia is divided into 21 provinces (aimags), which are in turn divided into 329 districts (sums). The capital Ulaanbaatar is administrated separately as a capital city (municipality) with provincial status. Thus being a federal municipality, the city is not part of any province. Ulaanbaatar is divided into nine districts: Baganuur, Bagakhangai, Bayangol, Bayanzürkh, Chingeltei, Khan Uul, Nalaikh, Songino Khairkhan, and Sükhbaatar. Each district is subdivided into Khoroos, of which there are 121. The capital and provinces have Citizens’ Representative Meeting (Local parliament) elected every 4 years. Governors exercise executive power in the capital and provinces and are appointed by the Prime Minister as recommended by Citizens’ Representative Meetings. Local administrations provide support for Governors. CUTS International with the support of The Asia Foundation (TAF) organised a three- day study tour for the Municipal Officials from the city of Ulaanbaatar of Mongolia. A 15- member delegation along with two representatives from TAF India visited Jaipur from December 07-11, 2015. 1 Objective The purpose of the study tour was to enhance capacities of the government officials with respect to informed decision making, community participation and implementation of activities for service improvement in their respective areas through exposure to relevant areas in India.

However, mercury, chromium, zinc, and strontium in the soil have increased in previous years. According to the results of the heavy metals monitoring of soil quality in Bayan-Ulgii, Dornogovi, Dornod, Dundgovi, Uvurkhangai, Umnugovi, Sukhbaatar and Khentii aimags, it is normalized to exceed the MNS 5850: 2008 standard. Total area 10.9 thousand hectares STATUS OF ABANDONED MILITARY SITES Waste - 143,882.10 м3/ha Soil disturbance - 20,077.30 м3 18 30 . A soil pollution assessment survey was conducted at 18 sites. The main pollutants are metal products such as petroleum, lead, zinc and chromium. Bayan nexus point: cadmium content was 4.6 mg/kg, lead content was 680.5 mg/kg, or 580.5 mg/kg from the maximum permissible level and reached toxic levels.

  • Capacity Development Project for Air Pollution Control in Ulaanbaatar City Phase 2 in Mongolia Technical Manual 06 PM10
    Mongolia Air Pollution Reduction Department (APRD) Capacity Development Project for Air Pollution Control in Ulaanbaatar City Phase 2 in Mongolia Technical Manual 06 PM10 and PM2.5 Measurement and PM Composition Analysis Manual September 2016 Japan International Cooperation Agency SUURI-KEIKAKU CO., LTD. Capacity Development Project for Air Pollution Control in Ulaanbaatar City Phase 2 in Mongolia Technical Manual 06 PM10 and PM2.5 Measurement and PM Composition Analysis Manual Introduction In this project JICA Experts have planned filter sampling of PM10 and PM2.5 of the ambient air at some sites in every season and analyze the components of the samples. JICA Experts will use the result for identification of PM sources throughout the year including winter season when the air pollution is severe and achieve information which will be useful for the policy making. Samplings and composition analysis of 120 points in total are scheduled in 3 years from 2014 to 2016. Considering the matters of power source and security, sampling points were selected from 10 local monitoring stations (6 stations of CLEM and 4 stations of APRD (AQDCC)) in UB City. And JICA Expert Team also used one local residence in northern gel area, Chingeltei from December 2014. Mass concentration of PM10 and PM2.5 is calculated by comparing the mass weight of sampled filter from before to after sampling. Major chemical compositions of PM are various elements, carbon components, and water soluble ionic species. However, analysis instruments were not in Mongolian country, above samples of filter on which PM was collected were used for composition analysis in Japan.

  • Population and Economic Activities of Ulaanbaatar
    POPULATION AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES OF ULAANBAATAR Bayanchimeg Chilkhaasuren, Head of Statistics Department UB. Batbayar Baasankhuu, Chief of Division Economic statistics of Statistics Department UB. POPULATION Urbanization in Mongolia has developed sharply since the second half of the last century and the percentage of people in urban areas from the total population has been increasing. According to the census conducted in 2010, two of every three citizens in Mongolia live in urban areas. Around 44.0% of the total population of Mongolia lived in urban areas in 1969. However, this number increased to 67.9% in 2010. This increase of population of the urban areas of Mongolia within the last decade is approximate to the population increase in 30 years before this decade. According to the urbanization of the population, the majority of people are living in Ulaanbaatar city and Central region. For instance: Darkhan-uul, Dornogobi and South-Gobi where there is better infrastructure systems such as the development of mining and other services and they have tar roads and railways as well as bordering China is also a key of the population attraction. The western area of Mongolia is not under-populated and urbanization is not at an intensive level. The main attractions of urban areas are that the development of social sectors such as production, services, education and health care in Ulaanbaatar city and province centers are better than in rural areas. Therefore, many people are moving to urban areas, which increases the size of the urban population from the total population of Mongolia. The majority of the Mongolian population, around 64.2%, is living only in Ulaanbaatar city.

  • How to Create Efficient, Reliable and Clean Electricity Markets: a Regulatory Design for Mongolia and Northeast Asia
    MASTER’S THESIS HOW TO CREATE EFFICIENT, RELIABLE AND CLEAN ELECTRICITY MARKETS: A REGULATORY DESIGN FOR MONGOLIA AND NORTHEAST ASIA Working title: Beyond Mining: Barriers to Renewable Energy Investments in Mongolia Paul Maidowski International Relations (B.A.) University of Dresden, 2010 Thesis Advisor: Professor William Moomaw SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE: MASTER OF ARTS IN LAW AND DIPLOMACY THE FLETCHER SCHOOL OF LAW AND DIPLOMACY SEPTEMBER 13, 2012 Version history V 1. Original: September 13, 2012 V 2. Updated: December 7, 2012 V 2.1. Slightly edited: December 8, 2012 Abstract This paper develops a comprehensive proposal for how Mongolia’s domestic power sector could be made more efficient, reliable and sustainable. The analysis is based on inter- views in Ulaanbaatar. It reviews the literature on power sector reforms in small developing countries and regional electricity markets. In a second step, a framework is proposed for a re- gional electricity market between Mongolia, Russia and China. In principle, this framework is applicable also to South Korea and Japan. The findings include that inadequate regulation has contributed to performance prob- lems in every aspect of Mongolia’s power sector, which remains a horizontally integrated monopoly. A lack of generation capacity was ignored for decades; as a result, supply is ex- pected to fall critically short of demand for the coming 3 to 5 years. Mongolia possesses rich coal resources, but water scarcity, harmful emissions, high vulnerability to the effects of cli- mate change, social constraints and the need for economic diversification will limit the future role of conventional technologies.
