Mongolia launches national movement against alcoholism www.xinhuanet.com

March 14 (Xinhua) -- Mongolian President Ukhnaa Khurelsukh on Monday announced that the country is launching a national movement against alcoholism for national security and the well-being of Mongolian families.
"One of the main reasons for our sufferings is alcoholism. Alcoholism never brings good. Instead, it brings misery, loss, and sorrow," Khurelsukh said during a national conference called "Men's Participation and Leadership in Social Development."
The role, responsibility and leadership of men are very important for the development of the country and their families, Khurelsukh said, noting that the average life expectancy of men in Mongolia is now almost 10 years lower than that of women.
High consumption of tobacco and alcohol by men, resulting in diseases such as lung and liver cancers and cardiovascular problems, is said to be the main reason Mongolian men have a shorter lifespan than women on average.
This is extremely irresponsible and affects not only men's quality of life, but also the security of families and nations, the president said. "Therefore, starting from today, we are launching the 'Healthy Mongolians' national movement against alcoholism for our national security and the well-being of Mongolian families."
He urged all Mongolians to unite against alcoholism and abstain from drinking alcoholic beverages.
Divorce is increasing year by year in Mongolia, and as of 2020, there were more than 86,500 single parents in Mongolia, the majority of whom were single mothers.
It is said that one of the main causes of divorce and domestic violence in the country is alcoholism.

Finland launches long-delayed nuclear plant www.rt.com

The Olkiluoto 3 nuclear reactor, located in western Finland, has finally been linked up to the national grid and started power generation, according to Finnish operator Teollisuuden Voima (TVO).
The 1.6-gigawatt reactor, the launch of which was originally planned for 2009, is expected to boost the nation’s electricity independence as well as to help in achieving carbon neutrality targets.
“OL3 significantly improves Finland’s electricity self-sufficiency and helps in achieving carbon neutrality goals,” the operator said in a statement on Saturday.
Eroded by technological problems that became the subject of lawsuits, Olkiluoto 3 is Finland’s first new nuclear plant in more than four decades and the first one launched in Europe in nearly 15 years.
Germany shuts half of its nuclear plants amid energy crisisREAD MORE: Germany shuts half of its nuclear plants amid energy crisis
The reactor’s final price tag was put at about €11 billion ($12 billion), almost three times more than what was initially estimated, Finnish public broadcaster YLE reported last year.
The reactor started test production at just over 0.1 gigawatt, and is projected to ramp-up to peak capacity by the end of July. After reaching full capacity, it will reportedly satisfy 14% of Finland’s electricity demand. Olkiluoto 3 is expected to reduce the need for imports from Russia, Sweden and Norway.
Finland now operates five nuclear reactors at two power plants on the shores of the Baltic Sea. All together, they are able to cover over 40% of the country’s electricity demand.

15-year-old Mongolian students to be involved in PISA assessment www.montsame.mn

Mongolia is currently ensuring preparations to be involved in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) for the very first time in April. The assessment is expected to serve as an important tool in correctly defining a policy to help students that have fallen behind in studies in the last two years due to the pandemic.
At a press conference organized on March 10, Minister of Education and Science L.Enkh-Amgalan said, “Mongolia will be involved in the computer-based version of the PISA assessment. Through the assessment, certain correlating factors such as whether an appropriate learning environment has been created, whether teachers are able to teach their lessons in an interesting way, and how much parents and guardians’ support affect children’s academic achievement and how much of an impact the pandemic has had on their studies will be determined.”
The PISA assessment is an international assessment that measures 15-year-olds’ ability to use the knowledge and skills they learned from school in real-life challenges.
Carried out by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the programme will involve 88 countries in 2022. As for Mongolia, about 7,300 students of 196 schools have been randomly selected.
