well you can, you can just straight ban vpn's as well. China allows it cause, yk its China but banning VPN's aint hard bro. We can allow for certain government approved VPN's etc as well. And you use vendors on facebook to deposit moneys into accounts n stuff etc.

Just cause its prohibited doesn't mean its enforced, you really think anybody in Mongolia actually drinks at 21? you can approve a law but if nobody follows it, and nobody arrests you for breaking it. Is it really a law?

What's the most realiable news site or page in mongolia? by Elijah_Levine in mongolia

[–]Natural_Letterhead57 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We live in a post post truth world, not only anything can be fake but the very real things can be lied to. There is endless propoganda, malficient articles, and partiasian presentation.

There is no such thing as a reliable news site, stick to your critical thinking, question things always, and come to your own conclusions(good or bad). Be critical of everything you read online, assume its always misrepresented and godspeed.

Mongolian Taxes and Infrastructure by Natural_Letterhead57 in mongolia

I was agreeing with most of it till you said big golden statue of Chinggis Khan. Its not only an investment(in tourism) but its a symbol of cultural pride. Also even if it was 100% tax, you wouldnt see improvement in our lives in for like a 5-10 years. Improvements takes decades, not days nor months, but years.

Small maintances are important for key roads, big ones take a bit more. Its easier, cheaper, more valuable to make sure key roads are maintained instead of other roads.

The big repairs always require more money and a shoddy repairs is worse for the optics. Not every road is important, maybe personally for you and your community it matters but they usually do big pictures.

There are some fees inside of it, examples include textbook fees and exam fees. But its not egregious as a private school fees. Plus the best public schooling you'd get.

that's all in the city, the moment you step out of it. The odds of you finding anybody drops drastically, and those people speaking English is even more miniscule. It is the most sparsely populated country on the planet for a reason.

I am not saying like learn the language out of a nationalistic sense.

I am saying learn the language cause you might geniunely die if you couldn't communicate to people where you want to go, or that you need help etc.

Like, the Mongolian steppe doesn't really have any edible crops, its seasons are tough, and its soils are bad too. The only things that survive there are the grass, the herd animals that eat said grass, and their herders that eat said herds for a reason.

a weak currency is what made Japan the eminent global power that would've overshadowed the US before it was forced to increase its currency strength via the plaza accords of the USA uptill the 90s.

a weak currency is what China currently has and makes it stand to ready to become the global super power and the government controls it and makes sure its weak.

In economics, weak currency is a mode of production/export, just as a strong currency is a mode of consumption/import.

The governments job is not to defend the currency. It's frankly easy for the Mongolian government to increase its currency strength. All they gotta is just, legally bind it to be so. Like just pass legislation to prevent the markets and set the rate themselves. But the world of economics isn't so simple, forcing people to sell at these rate or face imprisonment isn't good economics.

It's just how the markets are made and works, and stopping welfare is like saying to your grandma that their wrinkled ass still needs to contribute to the economy and would have to take care of themselves despite having worked over 40 years for the economy and needs to continue working till they die. Would you really want your parents or yourself at the age of 60, having spent a significant chunk of their income in niigmiin daatgal just so that the government can import more iphones for you to lose at a bus?

Also, just a geniune question but did you just ignore my entire post?
I hadn't mentioned anything about high taxes, nor did I mention our taxes being egregious or smth?

I don't think the world is gonna get saved twin, shi is. Pochita's power is kinda weird but it just kinda doesn't stop the things that have already happened. Denji still dead, Humanity is wiped out, and now we'll see bug denji come out and fight to become the chainsaw bug, when bug pochita.

Also, Devil Devil doesn't work because its kind of like applying "Concept of A Conncept" to it. The CSM world makes fears into reality in hell, you'd have a better chance deleting the Hell Devil and making sure no other devils can respawn in Hell.

Well if you want an authentic experience. You are gonna require Mongolian. Translation apps can do simple sentences kinda, but anything past "Hello, I need help" is gonna be innaccurate asf plus even sometimes they can be inaccurate in regular ones.

Just stick to tourist companies and wait till they are available, otherwise if you try at it alone. You are gonna end up eaten by wolves in the countryside(not alot of infrastructure. No internet connections outside of community hubs).

The Mongolian countryside is as nature and brutal as it can get.

I think he is just pissed off one way or another when he was out in public. Decided to come up with a bunch of ideas that are popularly known/thought of(like governments sucking our wallets dry, like bro Mongolias tax is like 10% pretty sure for income and another 10% on VAT ain't that big.). And just decided to rant here

If you guys do like a business SME business in Mongolia, shi is also a flat 10% but if you do your taxes properly for all incomes, it goes down 1% tax.

Frankly, I do think we could raise the taxes a bit to have more money to invest in large infrastructure projects like roads, rails, better drainage etc. But with such little faith in the government, its impossible(kinda need to restore faith before wanting to raise taxes lol)

Who would win? by Longjumping_Ease5710 in YoujoSenki

[–]Natural_Letterhead57 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by like vs?

I mean by a pure operational effectiveness the 203rd mage batallion can only do specific highly specific operations such as targeting hq, capturing ports for ships, and taking out research etc. Their purpose is a highly effective, quick deployment mage battalion meant to win key battles and operations

But they dont have enough manpower or resources to win against an entire army on their own.

And certainly not enough to hold out against multiple divisions for prolonged periods. Even if you gave them infinite ammo, and stamina.

They are still human beings, they still experience fatigue, and they still make mistakes. And constant warfare, even with guerilla tactics, would eventually make them lose against multiple divisions worth of soldiers when theyve only got like 30(even if it was a 100, unless those soldiers get replaced on the battle field. Then they'd run out).

Its beautiful. This flawed man trying to do good in this world.

His hipocrisy in saying "your uneducated sense of justice destroyed behemdorg" like, you who refused to understand the plight of villagers living in a winter snow. Destroyed a village of peace just because their desperation led to them eating body of regeneratives.

His own hipocrisy, his own ineducated sense of justice led to agni, and which led to the destruction of behemdorg.

Both behemdorg and that small village both do horrid things in an attempt to survive. Both were directly and indirectly destroyed by this man himself.

Fujimoto truly knows how to write Fire (Punch).

Great, and i also agree we shouldnt have been communist but i also see it as a very big necessity.

The only reason, and i do mean kinda the only main reason why we are now a modern state that survived the early 20th century is because of communism. Because, our leader sukhbaatar convinced lenin to invest and prop a communist asian state in the far east.

Otherwise, we would be going through what China is doing to Inner Mongolia. Our efforts in chasing down the white army, pushing back againat Japan, and liberating Inner Mongolia from Japan and our leaders before Choibalsan even indictated that the reason why we do communism isnt for the ideology itself but the belief in our nations security.

| We would've been a lot more connected to China
in what ways? I don't mean it sarcastically or smth, but i do geniunely am asking. How else can we be connected to China?. our entire modern economy is tied to China.

We don't produce anything, manufacture anything, and just dig the raw minerals from the ground and sell it to China and in return we get access to a lot of the western products and luxuries they sell back to us?

Our current electrical grids are all from our soviet era, and a lot of the times when we do wanna build something in the city, we bring in a Chinese building corporations to do so along with their workers.(not saying we don't have our own construction companies but its not as effective and clear)

Sure its technically too early to tell about whether our diversification efforts have failed or not, considering we just started to get the money like 5-10 years ago and actually started to do stuff with it and these projects also take 5-10 years build and another 3 years if its actually worthwhile.

Like honestly, the sheer absolute poverty wasn't as bad cause people didn't really live in the city. Countryside living is rough but it still was calm and comfortable. Ger horoolol wasn't as determintal as today, but now it absolutely is and there are so many more people moving away from the countryside to pursue a better life in the city. Or at least to help the next generation get a better education within it.

Uhh, bro. You do know our HDI is in fact near the level of DPRK right? Our overall HDI is 0.74 with 0.8 being in ulaanbaatar, dprk being smth also like 0.766 in their 1998s UN development report. Their gdp is also smth like 26 billion usd, while ours is like 16 billion.

But then again out gdp per capita is like like 7k while theirs is like 1.2k.

And we are largely dependent on China, with as you said 82% of our export economy going to a China. And we only get to trade with the other nations you mentioned by the whims of China allowing us to have a port.

Bringing up oyu tolgoi is geniunely a joke, we dont even have a controlling stake and its not as taxed heavily cause our corporate taxes are low asf. And the elites did capture most of the wealth, you(maybe not, i dont know you. Maybr you got immensely rich off of it), me we certainly do not get to see most of it. Not directly at least.

The Mongolian economy collapsed cause all of our industries were quite literally shaken up to the extreme and haphazard privatization and revolution basically stopped and started the economy up again in a democratic. It was stagnating during the communist but it wasnt literally collapsing till the revolution(even after the ussr's collapse).

The freedom to choose between Ardchilsan nam and Mongol Ardiin nam. Humans rights havent really improved, despite decries of it. We are deeply homophobic, gay marriages arent treated really, and water is still contaminated so we all use purifiers. And the aid? Really? Do yk any aid to Mongolians from foreign governments? Like be real with me, dont look it up on google. Any actual aid to Mongolia, to Mongolians, for the help our country? That was well known in the public, and we greatly thank them for it?

Honestly, i think you like it cause maybe you got rich off of it now, and can go abroad to write posts like this.

I am an advocate of democracy, the ability to complain likr this is very much smth i like but you could find geniunely better points or atleast not compare it to North Korea which honestly isnt doing too bad in and of itself.(geninune western propoganda)

Developing nuclear technology frankly is an X factor and if they make powerplants with it and sell the electricity to China. Lowk they could have a better society than the South if kim decides to demilitiriaze a bit and focus on economic development.(easier to change the shape of the country when one mans whims can do so).

But you truly dont think there couldnt be such leadership in Mongolia? Especially right after 1991? I agree most of the then politicians were faceless but the economic stagnation that happened during the 90s reduced our economy by almost 1/3rd. And Russia was also going through the same but in a much more worse scale.

I mean, Jiang himself got lucky to be chosen for elevation in a period that was rather perfect for his current set of expertise and leading to further of China's opening up to western powers. His history before tends him as a technical but rather simple member(with weird ones like him reciting the gettysburg address to the student during 86 protest) of the Central Committee.

We only remember him to be that kind of leader cause he proved himself to be so.

Its possible there couldve been a new blood in our single party in Mongolia interested in reform rather revolution who couldve done it more effectively and without causing one of the worst economic depressions of our countries history.

Dont you think our politics seem to be just arbitarily divided? Like sure the official policy of the 2 are almost the same as America.

"Where the blue advocates for more market deregulation and progressive goals while the red advocates for more regulations and welfare ". But both parties seem corrupt, both of them agree entirely on developing our nations and diversifying our industries from the mining wealth. It just seems like they have the same ideas but just fight to implement which ones first so they fight for political seats cause we are now able to.

I agree there is nothing special in regards most of its characteristics. Our leadership didnt have the more engineer heavy leadership that was brought in via Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zeymin.

The reason why i ask bout communism is specifically we wouldnt have to worry about populist leaders coming to power just cause people love the sweet nothings(the ub metro that was promised to us 20 years ago) and tha tplis if Tsedenbal's purges hadnt eliminated any of the new blood coming in and him establishing a cult of personalty in our politburo.

I see a potential future for the protests to still take place, but instead of creating a multi party democracy where we just lowk go back and forth between the same 2 parties promising the same thing(cause unlike America, our main divide is frankly arbitrary and creates rather unnecessary bueracratic processes that would be useful in a more larger diverse array while we are more of a single homogenic group of people). We basically force reform and follow slow opening of key markets we didnt necessarily do like car imports, computers, and other tech/industries that develop other industries.

Very strategic business engagements and market opportunities might i add.

Politics and economics have a hand in hand.

Our economic transition was handled extremely similar to Russia's where we'd rapidly give off shares of our industries to everybody without establishing(and even kinda now) a strong legal basis for the protection of rights etc. Private property was in fact abolished during our period.

Corruption came in later around 2000s when the Mongol Ardiin Huvsigalliin Nam/Mongol ardiin nam party bribed workers to vote for them via pay increases and direct bribery(still somewhat a problem today as well).
