A government delegation including B.Javkhlan, Member of Parliament, R.Tserenpil, consulting engineer at the Department of Investment and Industry and O.Gerel, specialist at the Department of Physical Culture and Sports Policy at the Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Sports visited the project site and looked over the progress on July 28, Friday.

Initially launched in 2011, the project came to a halt in 2014, but is now moving forward after MNT 1.5 billion fund was allocated in the 2017 budget. However, if the rest of the finance isn’t resolved in the next two years, the cost of the project will continue to increase.

According to O.Nemekhbold, CEO of ‘Nembar’ LLC, the contractor of the project, the construction work is 55 percent complete at present.

The sports complex in its 20,000 square meters of area offers a 2200-seat sport hall, an international standard swimming pool, various halls for other sport activities, a hotel and a conference chamber. When in operation, the complex will open an opportunity of hosting various sporting events in Darkhan-Uul, thus benefiting the local economy.

The local authorities in cooperation with the government are working towards settling the remaining MNT 8 billion finance within the next two years in order to inaugurate the complex in 2019.
