Public transportation providers are demanding that Ulaanbaatar leadership issue the payment of expenditures for the first quarter of 2016. Since Saturday, buses have been displaying a sign that reads, “Ulaanbaatar Mayor, give us payment for first quarter expenses. We will distribute salaries and pay off our debts.” Bus drivers explained that because payment for the first quarter has not been resolved, the public transportation companies have gone into debt to pay for fuel. They underlined that an unpleasant relationship has developed between fuel importing companies and the public transportation sector.
