Mongolia to Mark 820th Anniversary of the Great Mongol Empire www.montsame.mn

At its regular session on January 7, 2026, the government approved the composition of a working group tasked with coordinating preparations for the 820th anniversary of the founding of the Great Mongol Empire by Chinggis Khaan, to be commemorated in 2026.
As part of the anniversary commemoration, a wide range of nationwide activities will be organized to promote the history of the Great Mongol Empire, with events designed for different age groups. The theme and content of the anniversary will be prominently incorporated into the National Naadam festival program.

Parliament Supports Solar Ger Initiative Under New Regulatory Reforms www.montsame.mn

 Under the Parliament Speaker’s “Choloolye” red-tape reduction initiative, Mongolia is streamlining approval procedures that previously required up to 15 procedural steps and an average of one year for a single household to install a solar panel. A Parliamentary Resolution formalizing these reforms was adopted last month.
Aligned with the 2026–2030 National Development Policy, the Investment Program, and the Government’s 2024–2028 Action Program, a flagship policy under this reform is the “100,000 Solar Gers” Initiative, which aims to equip 100,000 ger-area households by 2035 with integrated solar panels, electric heating, and battery storage systems.
The initiative applies a multi-step, systems-thinking approach that addresses not only technology selection and feasibility, but also:
simplified grid connection for solar and battery systems of up to 20 kW, using standardized designs without the need for individual technical specifications;
quarterly payments for surplus electricity supplied to the grid;
grid connectivity and related technical bottlenecks;
monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) systems and access to carbon markets; and
blended financing solutions tailored to different household income levels.
To fast-track implementation, Chingeltei district has been selected as a regulatory sandbox, enabling streamlined permitting, grid connection, financing, and implementation models to be tested and scaled over the next two years.
The initiative marks a concrete shift toward a low-carbon, people-centered energy transition - cutting bureaucracy, improving air quality, and transforming households into clean-energy producers.

Building Mongolia's New, Old Capital at Kharkhorum www.thediplomat.com

Mongolia wants to resurrect the ancient capital of the Mongol Empire as a modern-day urban hub.
Mongolia is pursuing an ambitious initiative to move its capital, Ulaanbaatar, to Kharkhorum (also known as Karakorum) – the ancient capital of the Mongolian Empire. Mongolia’s rapid urbanization has reached its peak, with one-third of the country’s population dwelling in the capital. A new capital might help solve some of the challenges of overcrowding and attract modern talents and investments. 
Mongolia’s capital, Ulaanbaatar, is known as one of the highest and coldest capitals in the world. Surrounded by four sacred mountains, Ulaanbaatar has been the symbol of modern Mongolia for decades. The capital was and still is a place for nomads to seek opportunities and a modern way of life. 
However, in the last several decades, Ulaanbaatar’s size has tripled, surpassing what the city’s infrastructure could handle. Despite efforts to decentralize the capital, the mayor’s offices – the current and previous administration – have been stuck playing catchup. One of the solutions to this challenge is to move the capital to Kharkhorum.
Across Asia, several other countries are moving their capitals in an attempt to address overcrowding and unbalanced regional development. Indonesia, for example, is building a new capital at Nusantara on Borneo Island. The presidential office relocated there in 2024. 
South Korea is also heading toward relocating its administrative capital to the historic city of Sejong. President Lee Jea-myung vowed to relocate the presidential office to Sejong, hoping to create a more balanced society.  
In 2022, Mongolian President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa passed a decree to restore Kharkhorum as the capital. The city, located 230 kilometers southwest from Ulaanbaatar, is famous as the historic capital of the Mongol Empire. The move to revive Kharkhorum will require both domestic and foreign talents and investors. If implemented efficiently Mongolia could create a new city, with much more modern elements while encapsulating its deep historic roots. 
Mongolia’s once-and-future capital, Kharkhorum, and the current capital of Ulaanbaatar. Via Google Maps.
Kharkhorum once represented a melting pot, linking the Eurasian steppes to the farflung corners of the Mongol Empire, from the Pacific to the Persian Gulf and even eastern Europe. Songs, poems, and anecdotes from the time about the liveliness of the ancient capital during its heyday in the 13th century. Kharkhorum hosted merchants and artisans from the East and the West; Christian missionaries, Muslim scholars, and Buddhist monks lived side-by-side. Archival documents mention Buddhist temples, Islamic mosques, pagan temples, and Christian churches in Kharkhorum. Today, one of Mongolia’s oldest surviving Buddhist temples, Erdene Zuu, is found in Kharkhorum.
Kharkhorum was initially built as a military base campground, given its large land space. The city was then transformed into a cosmopolitan hub for political and economic affairs. In 1235, under Ogedei Khan, Chinggis Khaan’s son and successor, Kharkhorum became a walled capital. 
According to historians, Kharkhorum was eventually neglected and lost its power after Khublai Khan – the grandson of Chinggis Khaan – decided to move the Mongol capital to Khanbaliq (modern day Beijing), to gain more direct access to diverse trade routes. 
Later, as Khublai Khan’s Yuan dynasty came to end, in 1388, forces from the Ming dynasty destroyed the capital and it has been in ruin since. Kharkhorum’s ruins remain a vital historic site for the Mongol Empire. The ancient city showcases modern Mongolia’s approach toward protecting cultural heritage, increasing tourism, and expanding international partnerships in specifically reviving archeological findings. 
Given Kharkhorum’s deep historical relevance and its role in the Mongol national identity, the government has registered the Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape – which includes Kharkhorum – as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 
In today’s Mongolia, Ulaanbaatar has engulfed the vast majority of financial and human resources, given the extreme centralization. The New Kharkhorum project will create new opportunities for development and modernization. The Mongolian government has dedicated 189 hectares of area for the special project. Construction has already begun and major cooperation agreements with Mongolia’s international partners are underway.
In 2024, Mongolia registered 428 teams from 54 countries to compete to showcase an urban concept for the development of New Kharkhorum. Teams from China, Italy, Mexico, Singapore, Russia, Turkiye, Bangladesh, and 18 other countries joined the competition. 
The winning team was a consortium of Chinese state-owned companies, with a design “aimed at creating a new green, cultural, resilient and happy city,” according to China State Construction Engineering Corporation. China is already investing in the New Kharkhorum project, particularly in road and bridge construction and engineering.
Member of Parliament Dr. Bum-Ochir Dulam, who is also a professor of anthropology, stressed the importance of welding old and new together in Kharkhorum. “Imagine people going there and understanding the history of humankind,” he said in an interview. “This is why we are restoring it.”
According to the administration of former Prime Minister of Oyun-Erdene Luvsannamsrai, “As part of the city’s master plan, it is envisioned to establish a residential area accommodating 500,000 people, a 4E-class international airport, an agricultural cluster, a 4,800-hectare transport and logistics center, and a 2,450-hectare tourism zone around Lake Ogiinuur.” 
The relocation of the capital will require approximately $30 billion. The mayor of Kharkhorum Khaltar stated that the reconstruction of the city will use modern tools, merging Mongolia’s historical identity with modern, smart, digital, and green urban concepts. 
The planned new capital may become Mongolia’s first nuclear-powered city, with assistance from Russia’s Rosatom to build small modular reactors (SMRs). In 2024, during Russian President Vladimir Putin’s state visit to Mongolia, Putin mentioned Russia’s possible assistance in diversifying Mongolia’s energy with small scale nuclear power plants. The deputy chairman of Mongolia’s parliament, Purevdorj Bukhchuluun, stated that if Mongolia were to start the nuclear-power project today, “in 10 to 15 years, we would have solved our energy issue.” 
As Mongolia makes a bold move to relocate its capital, diverse cooperation opportunities will arise. In establishing the New Kharkhorum City, Mongolia’s tech-savvy partners – not only China but Japan and South Korea – will play a major role in investment, introducing modern urban planning and development. If implemented successfully and efficiently, the New Kharkhorum City can be a major boost to the country’s investment portfolio, urbanization, and economy.

Backed by Indonesian Tycoon, This Listed Firm Rushes to Acquire a Mongolian Mine www.cnbcindonesia.com

PT Techno9 Indonesia Tbk (NINE) is planning to acquire mining assets in Mongolia following the entry of Poh Group as the company’s controlling and majority shareholder. NINE Director Nuzwan Gufron explained that the acquisition will be carried out entirely through a Rights Issue mechanism, formally known as a Pre-emptive Rights Issue (PMHMETD), without using internal cash reserves or external financing from banks or third parties.
He stated that the company aims to submit the PMHMETD Registration Statement no later than the second quarter of 2026, as disclosed in an official filing with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) on Wednesday (January 7, 2026).
According to Nuzwan, the injection of Mongolian mining assets into NINE has become Poh Group’s primary focus. Meanwhile, plans to acquire coal mining assets in Indonesia are still under evaluation and have not yet been finalized.
He added that Poh Group will provide further disclosure should there be any progress regarding potential mining acquisitions in Indonesia, in accordance with applicable regulations.
Previously, NINE secured an option right to acquire mining assets in Mongolia for a period of 12 months. These assets are currently owned by Poh Golden Ger Resources Pte Ltd (PGGR), an entity affiliated with the company’s controlling shareholder.
The indicative value of the assets is estimated at around US$100 million, or approximately Rp1.6 trillion, although an independent valuation is still required to determine the final price. PGGR currently operates both open-pit and underground mines, with total assets valued at approximately US$500 million and a workforce of more than 1,000 employees.

Tourism organisations to receive “Star” ratings www.gogo.mn

As part of the government’s “Year to visit Mongolia” (2023–2028) programme and the drive to host one million tourists in 2026, regulations establishing an official “Star” rating system for tourism service providers have been approved.
The new regulations clarify classification and rating standards for accommodation and hospitality services under the Law on Tourism. They are designed to raise service quality and accessibility to align with international norms, create eligibility for government discounts and incentives, and help attract foreign investment to the sector.
Officials say the rules were developed through stakeholder engagement: six roundtable discussions were held with tourism businesses and their recommendations were reflected in the draft. The draft was also published on the Ministry of Culture, Sports, Tourism and Youth website for public comment.
Under the revised rules, categories can now be set for a wider range of operations, including tourist complexes, hotels and tourist resorts, whereas previous rules focused mainly on high-end hotels and resorts. The government says the rating framework will support both quality improvement and tourism-sector competitiveness ahead of the 2026 target.

Mongolia to Host Global World Horse Day Celebration www.montsame.mn

The 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly adopted, on June 3, 2025, a resolution proclaiming July 11 as ”World Horse Day,” an initiative proposed by President of Mongolia Khurelsukh Ukhnaa.
This year, Mongolia will host, for the first time, a large-scale celebration of World Horse Day, bringing together 10,000 horse riders from 56 countries.
The event will take place at Khui Doloon Khudag, on the outskirts of Ulaanbaatar, on July 11–13, 2026. Organizers are currently developing an extensive program designed to showcase the wonders of horsemanship. Five thematic zones are preliminarily planned, covering entertainment, equine therapy, traditional healing practices, cultural programs, and heritage bearers from all 21 aimags.
In 2013, Mongolia organized a Guinness World Record event at Khui Doloon Khudag, featuring a 3,000-horse race and a parade of 10,000 mounted riders in traditional national dress with full saddlery and tack.
According to estimates by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, a total of 60.8 million horses worldwide were recorded in 2023.
Mongolia has a massive horse population that significantly outnumbers its people. As of the end of 2023, the country had 4.8 million horses out of a total 64.7 million head of livestock. Mongolians are deeply intertwined with horses, which are vital to nomadic life and widely used for riding and transportation. Horses occupy a central place in Mongolian culture, encompassing not only traditional racing and the production of airag (fermented mare’s milk), but also the associated ceremonial practices, folk games, praising for winning horses, and communal celebrations that accompany these traditions.
