Editor-in-chief of the magazine Doc Drumheler said, “I am happy to be bringing Mongolian literature to the readers of New Zealand for the very first time. I got the chance to listen to works of Mongolian poets during the 39th World Congress of Poets in Bhubaneswar, India where I introduced our magazine.”
