The
Government has asked Ministers, the Mayor of Ulaanbaatar, and Governors of provinces to
begin preparatory work for the first-stage assessment of the implementation of
the Millennium Development Goals-based Comprehensive National Development
Strategy (NDS). The review will cover the period until June 30, 2010.

The NDS,
approved by Parliament early in 2008, defines a policy for the next 14 years
toward supporting human development in a democratic society by promoting
economic growth, as well as actively developing the country”s society, economy,
science, and technology in strict conformity with global and regional
development.

The NDS is
planned to be implemented in two phases. The first, from 2007 to 2015, will
focus on achieving MDGs and actively developing the country”s economy, while
the second, from 2016 to 2021, will make the transition to a knowledge-based
economy.
