The Voice of Mongolia is Mongolia’s only overseas broadcasting service. The short-wave international broadcasting in Mongolia commenced in September 1964 with the station name Radio Ulaanbaatar and with half hour transmission in the Mongolian and Chinese languages, beamed to China. In the next few years, Mongolia’s international broadcasting expanded including broadcasts in the English, French and Russian languages. At that time Mongolia was little known to the world and the foreign languages broadcasts of Mongolian Radio immediately caught the attention of international listeners who started sending letters and requests.
