Mongolia's New Parliament Sees Young Reformers

News summary

Tsenguun Saruulsaikhan, a young parliamentarian in Mongolia, is pushing for significant reforms to modernize the country, including addressing below-cost electricity rates inherited from its socialist past. Mongolia, with aging power plants and frequent outages, is in a transition phase as it navigates its democratic identity. Recent elections reflected discontent with lawmakers accused of enriching themselves instead of tackling widespread poverty. The ruling Mongolian People's Party retains power but with a reduced majority, amidst a notable increase in female representation in parliament. The election also saw the rise of multi-party governance, with diverse sectors represented, though concerns about bribery and vote-buying emerged.
