Unfortunately, after Zorig (Sanjaasürengiin Zorig, Mongolian politician) passed away, all these priorities and order of interests went in the opposite direction for a while."

STORYLINE:
Mongolian Prime Minister Oyun-Erdene Luvsannamsrai on Friday called for a new page of cooperation between the government and citizens as he voted in parliamentary elections.

Oyun-Erdene told reporters that democracy and trust in parliament are weakened when personal interest is put ahead of the national interest.

"Unfortunately, after Zorig passed away, all these priorities and order of interests went in the opposite direction for a while,” Oyun-Erdene said referring to Sanjaasurengiin Zorig, a Mongolian politician who played a leading role in the country’s 1990 democratic revolution.

Mongolia became a democracy in 1990, ending more than six decades of one-party communist rule.

While people have welcomed the freedoms that came with end of the communist system, many have grown cynical of the parliament and its members, seeing them as working mainly to enrich themselves and their business associates.

This election took place after a constitutional reform last year that expanded the seats from 76 to 126 added some uncertainty to a system that has been monopolized by two political parties and plagued by corruption.
