4 billion cyber attacks annually recorded in Mongolia www.montsame.mn

On August 3, MPs in the working group in charge of preparing the revised drafts for the Laws on Public Information, Protection of Personal Data, Cyber Security, and Electronic Signature became acquainted with the operations of the Department of Information Security at the General Intelligence Agency and the National Data Center.
With MP N.Uchral as the head, the working group consists of MPs N.Altankhuyag, P.Anujin, E.Bat-Amgalan, T.Dorjkhand, L.Munkhbaatar, B.Saranchimeg, J.Sukhbaatar and D.Tsogtbaatar.
Along with the rapid development of ICT, it became necessary to ensure cyber security. Due to several main factors such as insufficient legal environment, no authority in charge of taking preventive and countermeasures against cyber threats and attacks, and a lack of cooperation, Mongolia has ranked 104th in 2017 and 85th in 2018 in the Global Cybersecurity Index by the International Telecommunication Union.
The number of cyber attacks have increased each year since 2013. More specifically, an average of about 4 billion cases are considered to be a potential cyber attack. As one of the main duties of the center is to record these cyber attacks and take protective measures against them, the situation is constantly monitored by engineers at the center.
MP N.Uchral said, “Our country is currently implementing a policy on the digital transition of public services. However, amendments are required to be made in order to bring it to full realization. Furthermore, it is important to tell apart which type of information should be made accessible. The protection of personal data will also be discussed. As the government has a duty to protect the privacy and information of its citizens, it has also been reflected in the bill for the Law on Cyber Security.
Although it has been over 10 years since the parliament’s approval of the Law on Electronic Signature, its implementation continues to lack. As of currently, there are three companies that provide services for electronic signatures and only 35 thousand electronic signatures have been issued so far. In order to properly develop digital governance, it is necessary to strengthen the main infrastructure.
"The parliament is currently discussing a package of draft laws on digital governance. By approving these laws, the country’s safety index will increase alongside creating better conditions for citizens to have quick access to public services as well as for the elimination of corruption and bribery. Certain improvements are also expected in the country’s economy and the sector of finance. Some of the requirements placed by investors will begin to be met. Moreover, we are working on drafting a bill on virtual investment, which we aim to have approved during the parliament’s autumn session” said the MP N.Uchral.

NEXI provides overseas investment insurance for Mongolia’s new airport www.news.mn

Nippon Export and Investment Insurance (NEXI) is providing overseas investment insurance for the new airport in Ulaanbaatar. A joint venture has been established to run the Chinggis Khaan International Airport for period of 15 years under a concession agreement with New Ulaanbaatar International Airport LLC. This is first time that the operation of a Mongolian airport has been entrusted to a private enterprise.
The overseas investment insurance provided by NEXI will cover political risk on the equity investment of the four Japanese partners for 15 years. According to NEXI, Mongolia is foreseeing medium- to long- term growth predominantly in its capital of Ulaanbaatar, which serves as the county’s political, economic and commercial core. The Mongolian government considers the new airport a vital infrastructure project. It is the hub for passengers and cargo transportation in northeast Asia, and is expected to contribute to Mongolia’s development, particularly in the tourism and distribution industries.
The airport, located in Tuv province to the south of Ulaanbaatar city was opened on 4 July. Following an opening ceremony, the first flight from Ulaanbaatar to Tokyo’s Narita International Airport took off.

Copper price down as Chinese imports fall www.mining.com

Copper prices fell on Tuesday pressured by China’s lower metals imports.
Copper for delivery in September fell 1.4% from Monday’s settlement price, touching $4.372 per pound ($9,619 per tonne) on the Comex market in New York.
China’s factory activity expanded in July at the slowest pace in 17 months, with the official Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) easing to 50.4 from 50.9 in June, remaining above the 50-point level that separates growth from contraction.
China’s imports of unwrought copper have also been trending lower since the sharp recovery from the coronavirus pandemic amid stimulus spending in the middle of last year.
Imports reached a high of 762,211 tonnes in July of 2020, and have been dropping ever since.
China's imports of refined copper have peaked
Surging Chinese scrap copper imports that have doubled in the first half of 2021 are also displacing to some extent refined cathode, concentrate, anode, and blister imports, with analysis by Roskill predicting the situation to worsen and potentially cripple the copper price recovery.
Meanwhile, Fitch Solutions Country Risk & Industry Research says it expects near-term stabilization after copper and tin reached fresh highs in May and July, respectively:
“Nevertheless, there should be no collapse and prices will remain elevated compared to previous years, on the back of tight fundamentals and positive investor sentiment due to the ongoing global economic recovery.”
