Mongolia’s Largest Mining Event Highlights Investment and Responsible Mining www.montsame.mn

Mongolia’s largest mining event, “Mining Week & MinePro 2025,” officially opened on September 11, 2025, at the foot of Taij Khairkhan Mountain in Nalaikh District.
This event is not only a significant gathering for Mongolia’s mining industry but has also evolved into a major platform for defining new opportunities for economic growth, investment, and international cooperation. This year, it is being held under the theme “A New Cycle for the Mineral Sector: Investment and Responsible Mining.”
The opening ceremony of Mining Week was attended by officials including the Prime Minister of Mongolia Zandanshatar Gombojav, Deputy Prime Ministers Amarsaikhan Sainkhuu and Dorjkhand Togmid, Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Damdinnyam Gongor, Chairman of the Board of the Mongolian National Mining Association Battsengel Gotov, President and CEO of the Mining Association of Canada Pierre Gratton, Secretary General of the China Mining Association Che Changbo, President of the Colombian Mining Association Juan Camilo Nariño, members of the Mongolian parliament, representatives from government and private sectors, ambassadors, international organizations, investors, chambers of commerce, and mining professionals from Mongolia and abroad.
In his speech, Prime Minister Zandanshatar emphasized that the Government of Mongolia is launching the "Mining and AI" initiative and aiming to foster mutually beneficial cooperation with experts and investors in the mining and technology sector. He stressed the importance of going beyond extraction by producing value-added products, adopting technology, and innovation to enhance competitiveness. Highlighting the Government's policies on green development, digital transformation, and sustainable and responsible mining, the Prime Minister reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and accountability and to prioritizing regional development and the interests of local communities.
Highlights from key officials:
Prime Minister Zandanshatar Gombojav:
"Today's mining sector cannot be separated from environmental responsibility, social accountability, digital transformation, and the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Therefore, the Government will prioritize integrated policies on green development, digital transformation, and sustainable and responsible mining."
Deputy Prime Minister Amarsaikhan Sainkhuu:
"We cannot allow the mining sector to focus only on exports, local governments on budgets, and citizens solely on land and pasture, while our youth, our future workforce, remain directionless. We must take a holistic approach to address these challenges."
Deputy Prime Minister Dorjkhand Togmid:
"Over the past 10 years, Mongolia has received 29.2 billion US dollars in foreign investment, 74 percent of which, USD 21.7 billion, was directed toward the mining sector. This trend is expected to persist."
Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources Damdinnyam Gongor:
"A legal analysis of 10 current laws governing the mineral sector found 267 overlaps, 150 conflicts, and 150 gaps, highlighting the urgent need to reform the legal environment. Our ministry is now working on a draft law to amend the Minerals Law. Mining companies must also focus on improving employee skills and increasing productivity. In 2024, the mineral sector contributed 27 percent, amounting to MNT 22 trillion, to the national GDP."
Executive Director of Erdenes Mongol LLC Narantsogt Sanjaa:
"The government will focus on developing infrastructure such as railways, roads, and water systems through public investment, allowing the private sector to operate more efficiently. More experienced and economically efficient companies should operate in the extraction field. We will support the private sector’s best practices."

Participants are discussing key issues such as the development trends of capital markets, future cooperation, sustainable financing, digital transformation, regional integration, and investor protection.
Deputy Chairman of the Financial Regulatory Commission, Tserenbadral Tudev, opened the forum, stating, “This forum has long served as a platform to strengthen cooperation among regional capital market regulatory authorities, stock exchanges, and industry associations. According to the ‘Asia Capital Markets Report’ issued by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Asia’s capital markets have experienced remarkable growth over the past 20 years. Specifically, the number of listed companies has doubled, and market capitalization has quadrupled. Currently, Asia accounts for 55 percent of all listed companies and 27 percent of global market capitalization. It is important to highlight that your dedication and contribution played a major role in achieving these results.”
Organized by the Asian Securities Forum, which unites over 24,000 investors across more than 20 countries, this forum is being held in Mongolia for the first time. Hosting the event is a reflection of the successful development of Mongolia’s capital market at a regional level.

The forum will continue with the event titled “Mongolia’s Capital Market Connectivity,” which aims to increase international investor participation in the Mongolian capital market and create opportunities for domestic companies to raise funds from foreign markets.

BUDGET 2026: Ministry reports raising minimum pension to MNT 1.5 million not feasible under current budget www.gogo.mn

With the autumn session of Parliament due to open on Monday, 15 September, the Government has submitted the draft law on the 2026 budget. On September 12, senior officials from the Ministry of Finance, led by State Secretary J.Ganbat, briefed journalists on the draft by sector, and addressed demands by pensioners to raise the minimum pension to MNT 1.5 million. 
The draft 2026 budget includes MNT 378 billion to raise pensions by 6% in line with inflation. As of today, the minimum full pension stands at MNT 689,000, and the minimum proportional pension at MNT 570,000. 
State Secretary J.Ganbat stressed that the Ministry of Finance does not set social policy, that is the remit of the Ministry of Family, Labour and Social Protection, but outlined the budgetary implications of the pension proposal. According to the Ministry’s estimate, about 480,000 pensioners currently receive less than MNT 1 million. Raising the minimum pension to MNT 1.5 million would require roughly MNT 4.3 trillion in additional funding.
Officials said there are only three broad ways to finance such an increase: raise revenue (for example by increasing the social insurance contribution from 10% to 15%, or by raising VAT and personal income tax), which would place a heavier burden on workers and taxpayers; cut other expenditures in the proposed budget; or a large-scale restructuring of public spending, officials noted that, under current calculations, finding MNT 4.3 trillion by cutting would imply drastic measures such as reducing the number of civil servants by around 54% or eliminating large portions of other sector budgets.
The Ministry concluded that it is not possible to raise the minimum pension to MNT 1.5 million in the near term without major fiscal changes. Which combination of revenue increases or spending cuts (if any) will be pursued will be decided at government level and discussed in Parliament.
The draft 2026 budget includes MNT 378 billion to raise pensions by 6% in line with inflation. As of today, the minimum full pension stands at MNT 689,000, and the minimum proportional pension at MNT 570,000.

Ulaanbaatar and Japan Strengthen Clean Energy Partnership www.montsame.mn

 As part of its winter heating strategy, Ulaanbaatar has banned the use of raw coal and transitioned to using middling and semi-coked briquettes.
Deputy Governor of the Capital City of Mongolia, Amartuvshin Amgalanbayar, in charge of the Social Sector, Green Development, Air and Environmental Pollution, met with a City-to-City Collaboration Team from Japan to discuss clean energy solutions and explore future joint initiatives.
Highlighting the city’s phased transition away from coal and its shift toward cleaner energy sources such as gas, electricity, and renewables, the Deputy Governor expressed Ulaanbaatar’s intent to learn from the experience of Sapporo, Japan, a city with a similar climate, and to implement projects in collaboration with the Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM).
Through the JCM, Ulaanbaatar city aims to implement greenhouse gas reduction projects with Japanese investment, introducing eco-friendly, low-emission technologies and products from developed countries.
Fujii Masanori, a representative of the City-to-City Collaboration Team, stressed the importance of tackling the root sources of greenhouse gas emissions. He noted that by effectively reducing heat loss and improving energy efficiency, significant progress can be achieved and pledged continued support for Ulaanbaatar’s clean energy transition.
Phased efforts to reduce air pollution are currently underway as part of Ulaanbaatar’s 24 mega development projects. In the first phase of phasing out coal use, the city has insulated 5,000 households across five khoroos in the heavily polluted districts of Chingeltei and Bayangol, replacing coal-based heating with gas.

Mongolia Reveals Its Untamed Beauty and Rich Culture Through the Eyes of Dutch Tourists on an Unforgettable Adventure www.travelandtourworld.com

Mongolia travel offers an experience like no other, drawing adventurers eager to explore its vast landscapes, unique wildlife, and rich culture. For Dutch tourists Harrold Mertens and Carolien Molenaar, this dream became a reality.
Their three-week journey through Mongolia was filled with awe-inspiring moments—hiking in Mongolia’s rugged mountains, experiencing its wildlife, and learning about a culture so different from their own in the Netherlands. Their trip paints a vivid picture of why Mongolia is becoming an increasingly popular destination for those seeking adventure.
A Journey Through Mongolia’s Majestic Landscape
The couple’s adventure began in Ulaanbaatar, the capital city, before they made their way to Khovd and then to Ulgii. Their first real encounter with Mongolia’s natural beauty came with a three-day hike that led them deep into the country’s mountains. As they explored, it became clear that Mongolia travel isn’t just about visiting a new place—it’s about immersing oneself in the vastness of the land.
Majestic mountains and sweeping landscapes: From the rolling hills to the towering peaks, the couple was struck by the land’s untouched beauty, something entirely different from the urban bustle of the Netherlands.
Cultural immersion: Their hiking adventure included a special experience with an eagle hunter and his daughter, introducing them to the ancient traditions still practiced in Mongolia.
Hiking through untouched nature: Camping under the open sky, with nothing but the mountains and stars around them, was a reminder of how wild and free Mongolia remains.
The true magic of hiking in Mongolia lies in the connection to nature—where travelers like Harrold and Carolien can feel the land’s raw power in every step.
Encounters with Mongolia’s Unique Wildlife
One of the highlights of their Mongolia travel experience was encountering the country’s unique wildlife. For Harrold and Carolien, yaks were a particularly memorable part of their journey. During their trip, they visited a family that raised yaks and were invited to experience this integral part of Mongolian life.
Wildlife in the Mongolian countryside: From sheep to birds, the couple had the chance to observe domestic animals that roam freely across the land. However, it was the yaks, an essential part of Mongolia’s nomadic life, that truly left an impression.
Cultural significance of yaks: For centuries, these hardy animals have provided milk, meat, and transport for the country’s nomads. Spending time with the yak herders gave Harrold and Carolien a glimpse into the daily life of Mongolia’s rural communities.
Unique wildlife encounters: Whether it was the sight of yaks grazing in the open fields or watching birds soar above the mountains, the wildlife added another layer to the couple’s journey through this vast land.
Immersing in the Rich Mongolia Culture
As they traveled, Harrold and Carolien were also drawn to the unique and ancient Mongolia culture. The country’s deep traditions are reflected not only in its wildlife and landscapes but also in the way people live. With only about three million people spread across such a large country, it’s hard not to feel a sense of isolation and connection to the land.
The couple was amazed by the contrast between Mongolia’s vastness and their home country, which has one of the highest population densities in Europe. Whether in the city or the countryside, they found Mongolian people to be incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help when needed.
From the horse riders to the eagle hunters, Harrold and Carolien were constantly in awe of the rich cultural heritage that still thrives in Mongolia, despite the modern world encroaching. For them, Mongolia’s culture was a vital part of the experience, making it more than just a travel destination but a place to connect with ancient ways of life.
The Challenges of Mongolia Travel
No adventure comes without its challenges, and Harrold and Carolien faced a few during their time in Mongolia. Yet, these obstacles became part of the adventure, revealing how resilient both the travelers and the people of Mongolia can be.
Unpredictable weather: The couple quickly learned that the weather in the mountains can change on a dime. In one day, they experienced sunshine, rain, and even snow—all of which kept them on their toes during their journey.
Logistical hurdles: At one point, they faced a challenge with their cooking gear, which was not allowed on the plane. But with the help of their guide, they were able to solve the problem. Their stoves were eventually delivered by bus, a reminder of how resourceful the Mongolian people can be.
Support from locals: The kindness of the Mongolian people was something they’ll never forget. When their car broke down in the middle of nowhere, locals arrived with spare parts, showing that even in remote areas, people go out of their way to help.
The Wide-Open Spaces of Mongolia
For Harrold and Carolien, the most profound part of their trip was the overwhelming sense of space. Coming from a small, densely populated country, the vastness of Mongolia left a lasting impression.
A country of contrasts: Mongolia’s landmass is almost as large as Western Europe, yet it has a population of only three million. This created a feeling of being completely free, with endless landscapes stretching out before them.
The beauty of emptiness: Far from feeling lonely, the couple found the emptiness of the land to be peaceful and serene, offering a refreshing break from the chaos of modern life.
Peace and solitude: In the wide-open spaces of Mongolia, Harrold and Carolien felt a rare sense of calm and tranquility, something that’s hard to find in the busy cities of Europe.
Mongolian Hospitality: A Warm Welcome
Throughout their journey, it was the people of Mongolia who made the most lasting impact on Harrold and Carolien. Despite the country’s remote areas, the Mongolian people were always ready to offer help and warmth.
From offering food to helping them with their travel plans, the couple found the locals to be incredibly kind and generous. Harrold and Carolien were especially touched by the strong sense of community in the rural areas, where people help each other in times of need.
Conclusion: An Unforgettable Mongolia Travel Experience
For Harrold and Carolien, their Mongolia travel experience was much more than just a trip—it was an adventure of discovery. From hiking through mountains to witnessing Mongolia’s unique wildlife and culture, every moment of their journey was an eye-opening experience. Whether it was learning about Mongolia’s deep traditions, encountering yaks, or simply enjoying the wide-open landscapes, their trip left them with memories they’ll cherish forever.
For anyone looking to explore a land where nature, culture, and wildlife come together, Mongolia offers an unforgettable journey. It’s a country that combines adventure, beauty, and warmth in a way that few other places can.
