This cache in the centre of Ulaanbaatar is dedicated to Sanjaasürengiin Zorig: Sanjaasürengiin Zorig (born 1962, murdered October 2nd, 1998) was a prominent Mongolian politician and leader of the country's 1990 democratic revolution. His murder remains unsolved. After his death, his sister Oyuun entered politics and founded the Civic Will Party. From 1980 to 1985 he studied philosophy at Moscow's Lomonosov University. Afterwards, he worked for a year as an instructor for the Mongolian Revolutionary Youth League in Ulaanbaatar, and in 1986 became lecturer for scientific communism at the Mongolian State University. In 1989 and 1990, S. Zorig played a leading role in the events that led to Mongolia's adoption of a multi-party system. In June 1990, he was elected into the People's Great Khural. He was elected into the State Great Khural both in 1992 and 1996. In 1990, he served as Mongolia's minister for infrastructure. Zorig was murdered in his apartment on October 2nd, 1990. His murder and its background remain completely unsolved. A monument for him has been erected in Ulaanbaatar, and the political party founded by his sister Oyuun, Irgenii Zorig Nam or Civic Will Party, bears a reference to his name. His sister Oyuun entered politics after Zorig's murder and is currently serving as Mongolia's minister of foreign affairs. The cache is near the monument for S.Zorig. This cache was placed on a vacation trip to Mongolia. The whole family (parents, sisters, brother and so on) of one member of our team live in Ulan-Bator and is involved and informed about the cache. Its guarenteed, that a periodic maintenance will be performed by the family. And we will come to Mongolia as often as possible to visit the family and check the cache. There is no pen in the box. Please remove the cache at the same place. I you have a cap of a film-canister it would be very nice. Have fun and a good time in Mongolia! erel_3
