Mongolian President N.Enkhbayar,
has announced he will ride atop a camel during the "Mongolian Gobi--Silk
road" cross-country promotion.
The program is sponsored by
the Mongolian Camel Polo Federation and the NGO, For Supporting Gobi's
Development, with the hope of stimulating tourism and seeking protection
for camels from the disease, Camelus bactrianus.
The first part of the journey,
which covered 500 kilometers, took riders from Omnogobi aimag's Khanbogd
soum to Mandal-Ovoo soum.
The second part, which President
N.Enkhbayar will join, covers another 500 kilometers from the Omnogobi
aimag's Mandal-Ovoo soum to Kharkhorin soum of Ovorkhangai aimag.
