Recent events in the National Labor Party (NLP) have seized the news headlines – who exactly should the chairman of the party be? In a complex battle of competing candidates, S.Ganbaatar proposed himself for the position. The acrimonious issue went to the Supreme Court, which rejected his registration as chairman – twice! 

Yesterday, the Central Committee of the NLP held a meeting, during which S.Ganbaatar withdrew of his own accord. In his place, party member T.Ganbold is chosen with an almost unanimous 98% votes.

T.Ganbold is considered a skillful leader and an innovative entrepreneur. The decision seems to be welcomed within the ranks of the NLP, where members are confident that the internal controversies of the last two months are now in the past.
