Developments that are not implemented during the years of the Covid-19 pandemic have begun this year. We believe that the main basis of any work and success is organization. Therefore, in order to reduce traffic congestion, road repair and maintenance, building highways, public transport fleet renovation, and increasing access to schools and kindergartens are being carried out according to the plan. Particular attention to improving the quality of life of the population of Ulaanbaatar, providing them with the opportunity to live in a healthy and safe environment, and achieving unified standards are being paid. The capital city intends to implement Singapore's experience and housing policy in the ger area redevelopment, and bring out the correct planning of mortgage loans and capital sources. Ulaanbaatar will cooperate with Singapore in bringing urban planning to one standard.”
