After an extended and heated discussion, Amarsaikhan Sainbuyan, former head of the Citizen’s Representative Council of the Capital City (CRCC) was elected the Mayor of Ulaanbaatar and the Governor of the Capital City. 25 out of the 45 members of the CRCC voted in his favor during the VII irregular session of the Citizen’s Representative Council of the Capital City, on Tuesday. On the contrary, Munkhchuluun Samdannyam, who self-nominated himself for the second time, lost with 19 votes.
