Chinggis (Genghis) KhaanMy King's name was mentioned in a quarrel between Israel's Prime Minister (labeled as a war criminal by International Criminal Court) Benjamin Netanyahu and Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. But before I get into the details, I wanted my readers to know that my King's name has been spelled wrong and pronounced incorrectly, and I wanted to correct it first.

 It's been a while since my last post couple years ago. Sorry for the delay. :) My topic this time is about UN. That's right, the famous and the only United Nations. As you know, the main goals of this organization are international peace and security, dignity and equality on our planet. Let's get straight to the point. UN failed to fulfill its goals, and therefore it must be dismantled

Post-communist Mongolia hasn't changed a bit, politically and ideologically compared to the communist-era Mongolia. Unfortunately. Since 1990 it has a lot of time passed, enough for a better change, but no improvement at all. People say, South Korea has managed to become one of the top economies just in under 30 years! Or the Arab countries! How they turned a desert land to a paradise, using

 Why can't we live as one? Too many things circling my mind. Don't know where to begin. Probably because it's not about one specific topic but about many. Sometimes when I shut myself off from the surrounding world, I would wonder why we face so many problems in the world. There is a reason for every problem and once we know the cause it should not be difficult to solve it. But the

 Khurelsukh UkhnaaNew Year's speech by the President of Mongolia, Khurelsukh Ukhnaa,  has been ignored by many Mongols (intentionally changing the TV channel) in protest of his unsatisfying job as President. Even though his position should be considered as symbolic as described in  the Constitution, and his power is very limited, many Mongols see this position very powerful

What is going on in Mongolia? Usual picture. Some tiny demonstrations and arrests of those who spoke ill of the Government. One of the publicly well-known persons named Ch.Munkhbayar has been arrested and locked up. He has been very critical of the Government's policies, especially of those related to China. Ridiculously he was prisoned on charges of spying against China! Never

Today's topic is Ukraine. Russia is attacking it's neighbor- Ukraine. The whole world is condemning the aggressor. Dictator-countries like North Korea, Syria, Eritrea and Belarus stand with the Russian. 141 countries voted against Russia at the UN. Russia says, they defend those Russians in Ukraine whom the Kyiv  regime treated as second class citizens and even killed many of them.

What we need is a Presidential system!  We chose the wrong one. We can't go on with the current so called Parliamentary system any longer! Mongolia likes to brag to be a democratic country since 1990, right? Unfortunately, in reality it is not, but on paper, yes. Yeah, sure, Parliamentary system is a democratic system, but why is it not succeeding in our case? Two reasons: 1. For Asian

Let's talk. Straight and honest. I am an Asian and there's been lot of going on lately regarding the people of the same race as I am. As many of you may guess, I am talking  about hating Asians. I must say that hatred towards Asians did exist long before Covid pandemic, and it became only worse because of that pandemic. Now Asians are harassed, attacked and killed everywhere in the world.

Recently it has become unruly in so called Inner Mongolia, now a part of China, officially called Inner Mongolian Autonomous region, located in the north of today's China, bordering proper Mongolia. For some readers who are not familiar with that term  "Inner Mongolia", here is a short explanation. This term comes from the Manchu empire time, known as Qing empire (1636-1912), when those

It's been 13 years since a Mongolian young woman was killed by two Malaysian policemen in 2006. Her name was Sh.Altantuya. One can find all the information about her case online, including  a page  on famous Wikipedia, so there is no need to repeat everything here. There is a movie  made by Al Jazeera you can watch too.

But I am working on a subject about Mongolian children who ride racehorses during organized festivities in Mongolia, and it's getting really slow because I have been paying too much attention to the other blog.

Yes, horse racing is an  old  tradition but there  is no proof that ancient Mongols ever used little children as jockeys. Yes, Mongolian children learn to ride a horse at a young age as 4 or 5 because horse riding is part of our traditional nomadic life style. But riding a horse in everyday life and riding a race horse are two different things.  So, I think that  "

We Mongols are born to be tough. And very talented. I mean it. We can adapt to various conditions or situations very fast and without any complications. Our IQ is very high and our body is tough.  This time I will produce 2 stories related to our physical strength and toughness. Next time we will talk about our smart brain.

182000 is the total number of people who work for the Government. It is a big number if you consider how much  the Mongolian population is and how many are capable to work.  Our manpower is very small because  we have a tiny population of only 3 million people. Yet the Government workforce is huge compared to the size of the population. Corruption and bribery have led to this and
