Dried lake in northern Mongolia restored after several decades www.xinhuanet.com

A dried lake in the northern Mongolian province of Khuvsgul has been restored by engineering solutions after several decades, the country's Ministry of Environment and Tourism said Tuesday.
"The Khodon River changing its course due to a heavy flood in 1971 negatively impacted the ecosystem of a group of lakes in Darkhad Valley. Especially, the Tsoitson lake connected to the Khodon River ultimately evaporated completely," the ministry said in a statement.
A 403-meter dam and two channels were built on the Khodon River in 2021 by the Mongolian Academy of Sciences and a company called Prestige Engineering, at the behest of the governor's office of Khuvsgul province, to redirect the river's flow, the ministry said.
Thanks to the efforts, since September 2022, the Khodon River has been flowing directly into the Tsoitson Lake through its main channel and providing nourishment to the lake, the ministry said.
The lake has stored about 35 million cubic meters of water after the restoration, benefiting local residents and animals near the area as well as the whole country, it said.

Czech Government To Issue More Work Permits To Workers From Mongolia and The Philippines www.brnodaily.com

The Czech government is planning to again change the quotas for applications to work in the Czech Republic, to offer jobs to more low- and medium-skilled applicants at the embassies in Manila and Ulaanbaatar, rather than Ukraine, based on a proposal from the Interior Ministry.
In the Philippines, it will offer work permits to 3,000 people per year, up from the current 2,500, and in Mongolia it will offer 2,000 permits instead of the current 1,230, according to the proposal to be discussed at a cabinet meeting later this month.
The government does not intend to increase the overall number of migrant workers from third countries, so the quota at the embassy in Lviv, Ukraine, will be simultaneously reduced from the current 38,000 to 33,000.
The ministry’s proposal also includes a plan to allow Skoda Transportation to recruit 300 skilled workers from Indonesia on a one-off basis, primarily welders, electricians and locksmiths for the production of wagons. Jakarta’s permanent quota is set at 130 work permits per year.
The government previously redirected part of the quota intended for employment of Ukrainians to other countries last September.
Quotas to employ skilled foreigners from outside the EU were introduced in September 2019. The maximum number of applications that embassies in each country can accept is set by the government. The cabinet reassesses these quotas periodically.
Employers have repeatedly complained of a shortage of workers and requested more workers from abroad. They also call for the recruitment process to be sped up and simplified.
The draft amendments, which institutions can comment on until the middle of next week, also envisage abolishing the quota for visa applications for travel of more than 90 days for business purposes at the diplomatic missions in Yekaterinburg and St Petersburg in Russia (currently 50 applications per year at each mission), due to the closure of both offices.

From Uranium to Democracy: Macron's Visit To Mongolia Explores Diverse Prospect www.mongoliaweekly.org

French President Emanuelle Macron's visit to Mongolia on March 21, 2023, holds significant implications across political, economic, social, and foreign relations spheres. The visit highlights Mongolia's geostrategic importance and France's aim to strengthen its presence in East Asia through the Indo-Pacific Strategy, while also seeking stable uranium sources for its nuclear energy sector.
During the visit, Macron aimed to accelerate operations of the joint venture Badrakh Energy, formed by French multinational Orano and Mongolia's MonAtom, which explores and mines uranium in Mongolia. This partnership would secure a uranium supply for France's nuclear reactors, generate jobs and revenue for Mongolia, and enhance bilateral cooperation. The Mongolian-French joint statement mentioned that a mining investment agreement between Mongolia and Orano would be negotiated and signed later this year unlocking multi-billion dollar Zuuvch Ovoo uranium deposit in Gobi.
However, the development of uranium mining in Mongolia presents challenges and risks, including environmental concerns and community opposition. Previous involvement of Orano (formerly Areva) has raised public backlash, necessitating community engagement through funding local development, education, healthcare, and scholarships.
Macron's visit to Mongolia also holds significance for his foreign policy vision and Europe's pursuit of strategic autonomy. By fostering partnerships beyond traditional alliances, Macron's approach may influence European dynamics in the Asia-Pacific region, shaping Mongolia's position within this context.
Expanding cooperation with France in sectors like green energy and culture can bring economic benefits and international partnerships. However, it is crucial to ensure that uranium mining aligns with sustainable practices and addresses social and environmental concerns.
As Mongolia and France navigate challenges and resistance in their uranium mining endeavors, striking a balance between economic opportunities and social-environmental considerations will be vital for long-term success and sustainable partnership.

Assets of State-owned Companies Increased 2.8 Times in the Last Five Years www.montsame.mn

“GDP of Mongolia amounts to MNT 52.9 trillion, while total assets of state-owned enterprises and companies equal MNT 59.2 trillion,” underlined Minister of Mongolia and Head of the Government Secretariat D. Amarbayasgalan. “Although the state-owned enterprises’ assets increased in the last five years by 2.8 times, the annual profit equals MNT 2.1 trillion, which is relatively low compared to the business sector.”
He pointed out during a discussion held at the Mongolian National Chamber of Commerce and Industry on May 25 that the participation and share of state-owned enterprises and companies in the free market economy has been still increasing thus occupying the position of the private sector.
As a legal entity, the number of state-owned companies was 104 in 2021 and 105 in 2022, whilst the current number of state-owned companies accounts for 98, excluding state-owned enterprises under the ministries. These are the companies that are part of the structure and composition of "Erdenes Mongolia" LLC, a group of state-owned mining companies and the Government Agency for Policy Coordination on State Property.
Among them:
• 45 are profitable,
• 53 operate unprofitably.
Out of the total annual profit of MNT 2.1 trillion earned by all state-owned companies, "Erdenet” and "Erdenes Tavantolgoi" companies contribute MNT 1.9 trillion. Therefore, the discussion covered the topic of how state-owned companies could focus on profitable operations.

Sumo: New ozeki Kirishima makes long-awaited trip home to Mongolia www.english.kyodonews.net

Ozeki Kirishima departed Narita airport near Tokyo on Monday to visit his native Mongolia following his promotion to sumo's second-highest rank.
The 27-year-old, who wrestled under the ring name Kiribayama before becoming an ozeki last month, had not returned to Mongolia for four years because of pandemic travel restrictions.
"It's really great," said Kirishima. "I'm going to see family, relatives and friends I haven't seen in a long time, so I want to take my time catching up with everyone."
The Spring Grand Sumo Tournament winner returns home as the sixth Mongolian-born wrestler to achieve the esteemed rank, second only to yokozuna.
He was promoted after a string of strong results including an 11-4 finish at the most recent Summer Grand Sumo Tournament at Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan.
Kirishima plans to travel from Wednesday to his home town in Dornod province, some 700 kilometers east of the capital Ulaanbaatar, where he is set to receive a warm welcome home.
"It might be a bit like a small festival," he said.
The 186-centimeter, 143-kilogram wrestler could only secure an economy class plane ticket after booking his trip at short notice, but said he was able to get a seat with enough room.
He is scheduled to return to Japan on June 14 and plans to take part in the Arashio stable's training camp in central Japan's Nagano Prefecture in preparation for the Nagoya Grand Sumo Tournament starting July 9.
