MPP board approves to oust Mayor of UB Batbold Sundui www.zgm.mn
Mongolian People’s Party (MPP) board held a meeting yesterday and decided to oust Mayor of Ulaanbaatar city and Governor of Capital City Batbold Sundui and approved the appointment of MP Ulaan Chultem as the Minister of Food, Agriculture and Light Industry. At the forum, Prime Minister announced that he will dismiss several key officials related to alleged MNT 60 billion sell-off of public service positions. Several policy makers, including Parliament Speaker Enkhbold Miyegombo, Mayor Batbold Sundui and Head of MPP caucus Khayankhyarvaa Damdin were reportedly related to the case. The case began during the 2016 Parliamentary elections when a voice recording of three high-profile officials of the MPP went viral on social media. In the recordings, more than 8,000 jobs in Mongolia’s government and stateowned enterprises were being offered by the MPP if they won the elections, in return for the money required for their campaign.
MPP caucus request Congress to be held within November 20
Majority of the MPP board members were in favor of ousting the Parliament Speaker and Mayor of Ulaanbaatar city. After the voting, MPP board decided to remove Mayor Batbold Sundui. The decision will be discussed by the Citizens’ Representative Khural soon. Respecting the decision, Mayor Batbold expressed that he is ready to dismiss from the position. Regarding the ministerial position opened after the ousting of Batzorig Batjargal, who got involved in the Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) Development Fund scandal, the board of MPP agreed on appointing MP Ulaan Chultem. Additionally, Head of MPP caucus Khayankhyarvaa delivered a notice to Prime Minister on holding certain Parliament members involved in the SME Development Fund scandal accountable for. He demanded to dismiss those MPs if proven to have embezzled the loans received from the fund through non-banking financial institutions, which is currently under investigation, and hold the MPP Congress within November 20 to discharge MPP board members involved in the embezzlement. He further criticized the PM Khurelsukh for his attempt to dissolve the Parliament, deeming it irresponsible, and held discussion on ousting the PM.
