Description
Mongolians are set to go to the polls in parliamentary elections, with the ruling party expected to hold its majority despite voter fatigue over corruption and concern about inflation and the state of the economy.
Streets across the capital Ulaanbaatar are decked out with vibrant multi-coloured posters advertising candidates from across the political spectrum, from pro-market liberals to hardline nationalists, populist businessmen and environmentalists.
"The parliament is full of wealthy people who promise changes and improvements, but they forget us the next day," 46-year-old retired miner and grandfather, Tumurkhuyag Bayanmunkh, told AFP near a rally held by the ruling Mongolian People's Party (MPP). IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
