Society
Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/. On the occasion of the
traditional Mongolian celebration of Lunar New Year – Tsagaan Sar, President of
Mongolia U.Khurelsukh, Prime Minister L.Oyun-Erdene, and Speaker of the
State Great Khural G.Zandanshatar extended greetings to the citizens
of Mongolia.
In his speech, President said:
“ Tsagaan Sar is the
New Year for the Mongolian people and the beginning of spring. Tsagaan Sar is a
highly respected holiday by the Mongolian nation, which includes many aspects
of Mongolian customs and traditions inherited from the Khunnu Empire. In the upcoming Year
of the Water Tiger, Mongolia will celebrate the 860th anniversary of birth of Chinggis
Khaan, the founder of the Great Mongol Empire.
Despite the difficult situation with the
Covid-19 pandemic facing the whole world, I am sure that in the upcoming
year there will be a lot of positive changes in our country, with the
joint efforts of our people, we will return to our normal way
of life.
I would like to
extend my greetings to our herders who carry a
thousand-year-old nomadic civilization, brave frontier guards, peacekeepers, medical
workers, soldiers and policemen protecting the health of citizens and the
country.
I wish all the citizens of Mongolia happiness, success, health, long life, peace and prosperity
in the New Year!"
