Mongolia travel guy & sucker  I established this company after being busted by acute leukemia, with no savings and minus health in 2004. All I had and my parents and relatives had was spent on my chemotherapy, total body radiation and bone marrow transplantation.  I had had a dream to establish a travel company but busy life made me dizzy with other activties. Even though I had registered the name "Mogul Travel" back in 2001 with Tax Authority of Mongolia, I had not started any operation. Once the transplantation clinical trial which allowed free treatment, drug and follow up care was over, I came back in Mongolia and took a website training. Little did I know it was an advanced crash training course and I understood nothing from it.

Wondering how dumb I was, later I read Dreamweaver manual and built my first website. Now I think how in the world I was supposed to understand the advanced course.      

Now we have this website which is only as good as I am or my small staff are. There are many imperfections which hopefully will be cleared along the way. Besides running this travel activity, I am somestimes called by other organzations who want to hire me for a week or 2 long project. I reduced the number to only one, Mongolian Press Insttitute.

So we are in the business of giving rest to you. For your vacation and holidays come to us.

Blog of Mogul travel, a Mongolia travel agent  Nomad Land Blog is our blog. Take a look at our journal which may be the most updated part of our website. Comment, share your feedback and ideas. Sometimes only spam guys come in and leave comments. There is not going to be any chance for linking for them. 

A new Mongolia travel photo gallery has been developed. Share and show off here your Mongolia  pictures, comment on the photos, and vote for best images. Mongolia Gobi, Karakorum, Hovsgol, Altai mountains travel pictures are some of the albums to start with. You got a picture of a cafe in UB? Share it. Many others don't have accurate knowledge about city life in Mongolia and Ulaanbaatar. Maybe you can dispell their notion. Mongolia is not just horses and nomads but it has an opera and ballet theatre, the only one of its type in Asia, snazzy restaurants, and bustling life getting evermore hectic.  I don't manage to upload my latest travel photos.

Mongolia: Protect Rights of North Korean Migrant Workers

(New York, August 20, 2008) � The Mongolian government should protect the human and labor rights of North Koreans coming to Mongolia to work, Human Rights Watch said today in a letter to Mongolia's minister of social welfare and labor. On July 22, 2008, Daily Business News Mongolia reported that Ulan Bator and Pyongyang have approved a deal allowing North Koreans to work in Mongolia. According to the US Department of State, the agreement, reached in February 2008, permits up to 5,300 North Korean workers to come to Mongolia over the next five years."We are not advocating for Mongolia to reject North Korean workers, but to ensure that human and labor rights of North Koreans are protected while working in Mongolia," said Elaine Pearson, deputy Asia director at Human Rights Watch, in the letter. An opportunity to work overseas is hugely attractive to many North Korean workers. But reports on North Korean workers deployed to work in foreign-owned factories and in some European countries indicate that they face severe restrictions on their freedom of expression, movement, and association. In some cases, they remained under virtually constant surveillance by North Korean "minders," and were routinely forced to deposit a large portion of their salaries in a bank account controlled by North Korean embassy officials.In the letter to Minister Demberel, Human Rights Watch asked the Mongolian government to conduct thorough on-site investigations in facilities where North Koreans work, ensure that all North Korean workers are fully informed of their rights and how to exercise them, ensure that workers receive net wages compliant with minimum wage laws, and monitor freedom of movement of North Korean workers. "This is a chance for the Mongolian government to set a positive precedent for North Koreans working overseas and allow them to be treated like other workers, instead of as virtual prisoners of North Korean minders. They must not waste it," said Pearson.
