"SODON" COVERS ANYTHING RELATED TO MONGOLIA

A traitor

(initially posted on 11/16/11)

Was  Ts.Nyamdorj (or still is) a spy?  Was he a traitor who betrayed his country?
Mr. Nyamdorj Ts.,- current MP and Head of the Ministry  of Justice and Internal Affairs - was the Deputy Minister of Justice in  1992 when he got involved with Chinese agents under the umbrella of a "cultural  cooperation". It was a big sensation back then and he got away unpunished using his government position and party affiliation and influence.

 Now those secret materials are once again made available to the public, reminding us of his crimes. How on earth can his party- Mongolian People's Party (MPP)- still tolerate him who supposed  to be punished instead of being awarded with high government positions.

Is MPP also an anti-Mongol party because it defends a traitor?  I ask this question from the leaders of this party.
Following is the rough translation of those secret materials which show how our traitor had been communicating with the Chinese and what he was doing. Those are reports made by Mongolian agents to their superior.

Secret material #1:

                                    To Department Chair

 5.5.1992  
                                                        
 About the order   regarding  the "Cultural center"

The  agent has collected  the following information during the  meeting  with  the  "Head"  today:

- It has been a week since Yan Ju Hua, a chief of a penal  institution, Colonel Choindon, a chief of a women jail house, a company  owner, and Bold, who is the husband of Tseden-Ish have returned from a Beijing trip.

Before they left for Mongolia,  the woman from the "Cultural center"  has called Yan to meet him and gave the following instructions:

* organize a family-trip for "N" with his wife and children to China
* organize   somebody superior to "N" or the Deputy Prime Minister make a trip to China in coming July month (preferably somebody who is educated in Soviet Union)
* study  about the ratings of  15 political parties in Mongolia  and about  which party  has more chances to win, and what programs they offer. Get all those programs.

The "Cultural center"-woman  gave Yan also a letter addressed to the Cultural  attache of the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia and introduced him to this Embassy official.

The English translator, a Chinese man who came with Yan, has left for China last Saturday. This man got a visa for Russia issued here from the Russian Embassy. He said he is going to head to Russia once he is in Beijing.  There is something going on.

A Chinese named Jin En who lives with Yan has a dancer girlfriend named Selenge who must be  a daughter of  either the Deputy Minister of Agriculture or a Department Chair of said Ministry. Selenge's father came back from Moscow yesterday and she invited Yan, Jin En, and Yan's girlfriend (a Mongol girl).

Clarification:

Yan lives with Jin En and the English translator in a 3 bedroom apartment, Apt # 16 in building #15, but Jin En lives separately on second floor since yesterday.
The "Head" plans to move to his relatives dwelling in Chingeltei district due to high rent of the apartment.
Would have been useful if he stays with them.
Yan works hard to carry out the orders from the "Cultural center". He will leave soon and will come back.

Suggestion:

* let's send a superior/chairman
* inform major Damdindorj about Yan

About communication with the "Head"

The "Head" went to China on a private business from December 20 last year to January 8 of this year.  The "Head" was in Beijing and Khukh khot.
The following information is given when we met today at 11-11.30am:

"...When I arrived in Beijing I met with a man named Lyu Jun Shan who claimed to be a close friend of my father, and who used to be a Deputy Minister of Chinese Foreign Ministry at his home. He was laid off because of his bad performance and became a pensioner, and is about 60 years old.
He paid all my expenses for  2 days-stay  at a luxury hotel."

"When I was about to leave, he asked me to find   somebody who has no lower position than Deputy Minister of Justice Ministry and who is very reliable, and organize a trip to Beijing  on  my invitation .
It does not matter if that person speaks  Chinese or not; we'll handle it. I have some personal  reason  to meet  and  talk  with that person.  That person should come alone. But  keep shut your tongue when you are drunk and don't promise to anybody that you can afford it for somebody to make a trip to China."

" Mr.Lyu was also interested in how I  came to Mongolia and found a job. He assured me that the person can  come at an official invitation and stay at the largest hotel in Beijing all expenses paid for a whole month."

Suggestion:

1. The "Head" could be exposed in China. In this case the Chinese may try to either get information  using his ignorance , or make him a double agent to get us hooked.
2.The "Head" is not exposed. In this case  the Chinese might have set a goal to  gather intelligence information and to spy on persons. Therefore we should clarify the given information and use this opportunity in either cases and test it.

Clarification:

- Mr.Lyu gave the "Head" his address and phone number asking to respond  soon.
-  We agreed to meet later  due to uncomfortable situation this time.

Secret material #3

                                     Information  report

About the operation of an organization

According to the officials of the so-called "Center of the international cultural  cooperation of China", this center is not an official body but carries out its operation with the permission  of the  "higher organization".
It has 17 branches in China and receives 4-5 thousand guests from abroad a year. This  center operates under direct supervision of Pen Chun who is a Deputy Chair of a Standing committee of the Assembly of People's Representatives of China.

As the name of this organization suggests, this center must be involved actively in international  cultural relationships between China and other countries. But instead of pursuing cultural  cooperation with our country , it is more interested in our domestic political situation, economical crisis, the amount of loans and donations  we receive from other countries, and  carrying out investigations in regards to metallurgical industry and  collecting information.


They are especially paying attention to the coming election of the Parliament and  gave orders to some individuals to find out and report about the political parties, their rankings, ideology,  election programs and chances to win.


It might be possible that the fact that some individuals who work closely with this organization are trying to buy some "salvaged" military  techniques  like tanks and armored vehicles from us, is  to  study our military potentials and to use it for improvement of  own weaponry.
They are trying to buy  a tank for $750 per ton, and an armored vehicle for $450 a ton. Therefore those military vehicles need to dismantled so that they cannot be used for military studying purposes  if sold.

This center is also interested in Erdenet, a copper- molybdenum mining company, and making researches about why  Mongolians cannot use this mining in its full capacity. They study the possibility of buying copper for $700-750 per ton.

The above mentioned Chinese citizens who closely cooperate with this center are trying to establish joint ventures in cigarette  production, sewing industry and in other  service industries.
An attention deserves the fact that this "Center for international cultural cooperation of China" is trying to bring  one of our senior state or government official  to China on an invitation.

About communication with  the "Head"

"The Head" gave additional  information to the previous ones when we met at the meeting place today between 2-2.50 pm.
"... Yan Ju Hua took me home  in Beijing  where he lives with his wife and children. Currently he works at the correctional institution Baganuur (in Mongolia) as contract worker and is 42 years old. He used to work as engineer in a carpet factory  in Beijing. Yan's father must have died during the "Cultural revolution".  Don't  know what he used to do for living..."

"...When I was there, an old man about 60 years old came to visit and we met. He claimed that he was a good friend of Yan's father and dismissed from his position of Deputy Minister of Foreign Ministry (of China) because he sympathized with the Soviets at  a meeting he had back then..."


"...He paid all my expenses and let me stay at the hotel called "Chinan Panda" for 2 days. Daily rate was 70 Yuan  for a single bed. He let  Yan Ju Hua also stay at the hotel. We would eat only three of us at the table for 10 people. He would ask questions like:
- how is the living in Mongolia
- how do the Russians behave
- why Mongolia is so poor when it has so much natural resources
- why did you came back  from Mongolia in 70s
- why did you return to Mongolia after laid off  because of serious matters
- how did you find a job and who helped you etc. and advised me to work good and take care about my reputation..."

"...He was curious about my ID for foreign specialist and wanted it translated and copied. Also the work address on that ID was of great interest to him. He told me that he was blamed for things he said in favor of the Soviets at a meeting.
He talked about finding a dependable person of a rank no lesser than Deputy Justice  Minister or Head of correctional institution and  organize a trip of that person (to China) on February 18. He told me to contact him by phone as quick as possible.."

"...He said that he is going to let him stay at the hotel "Beijing panda" for as long as wants (10 days to a month), all expenses paid and if that person  seems dependable he would talk about politics.  He didn't say anything more.."

Page 2.
"A guy who lives one floor down will leave this coming Sunday and  return on 28th of this month.  If I give his address and names, he will bring the invitation when he comes back on 28th.
Since Chinese New Year  celebration ends on February 15, it would be better if the minister visits around 18th or 19th of February, he was told."

"He gave the guy's card with a hand written statement from him about where he worked ,and what he used to do, written on a sheet of a notebook  with blue ink in Chinese. (attached with the translation)

Clarification:

The guy who lives downstairs is not known.  I gave the  agent  the address of "N" and told him  the following made-up story: -  "N" and I are close friends. When "N"  mentioned that he wants to go to China to do some shopping, I proposed  him  what you have told me and he agreed. It needs to be kept secret because it is a private matter and  might  affect his reputation. "N" does not know anything about our relationship. I explained to him that you are my acquaintance who travels lot back and forth, and it would not hurt if somebody has such a connection.   Tell him the same thing about me in that sense."

We talked about sending a letter to Yan on Sunday and  telephone him in Beijing.

Suggestion:
1. pay attention when Yan returns
2. monitor "Head"'s phone until Sunday
3. when invitation comes, introduce "Head" to the person who goes. We should give instructions.

p.s.  the  agent  is informed that he was awarded with a medal of 70th anniversary of People's revolution, and congratulated.  The Medal  is shown to him.

Secret material #5

         To the Department Chair,  Major G. Lkhagvadorj


3.21.1992

About the "Cultural center"

The "Head" gave the following information when we met today:
".. Yan Ju Hua returned on 18th.  He was ordered  to arrange a visit of a  Deputy Minister of Mongolian Government  to China in the near future together with "N". He should get help from "N" through Tsao Do Pon  and Tun Sho Bin (female) of Cultural center. So, Yan is  in hurry to find a Deputy Minister and make him/her to visit  China as soon as possible..."

"...Yan was given 83 color photographs to pass them to "N".
It should have costed hundreds of Yuan.
While we were looking at the photos there was a woman sitting isolated and making notes of what we were discussing, and when I asked Yan about that woman, he said that she is an agent in civilian..."

"The chair of foreign relationship of the Cultural Center, a woman, who invited "N" to China on behalf of the Cultural Center stays with the  female agent  mentioned above. To my knowledge Yan Ju Hua  has an affair with the foreign relationship chair and has told me once that thanks to  her he has succeeded so far.
Her (Tun Sho Bin) husband is the administrator   of a big  market near the Mongolian Embassy in Beijing and his name is Sun Hao Bin."

"I noticed that those officials from the Cultural Center have offices  at the same hotel we  stayed. They pulled out the keys of  their rooms from their pockets. "

"Tun Sho Bin and Tsao Do Pon have ordered Yan to study the reason why Mongols can't use the full capacity of Erdenet mine. They gave him also the authority to buy copper from Erdenet for  $700-750 per ton."

"I have made a conclusion that this 'Cultural Center' is trying to make a connection to the Mongolian Government and establish  here own representation in any form. It seems like in their business is not only the Chinese Intelligence involved, but also their Government has its representation as well.
The policy of the Chinese is to bring Mongolia  closer by attracting  the high ranking government officials using the opportunity while Mongolia distances itself from Russia. The cause is not clear. Their account needs to be studied thoroughly".

"Yan is trying to buy tanks from the 162th Army in Amgalan. He pays $750 per ton because it is a high quality steel. But when he wanted the canon pipe  cut and wreck the inside of the vehicle by exploding , the Mongols didn't like the  idea and  demand to  load it as a whole."

"I heard the people of the Cultural Center saying that they want import even the junk but the customs is the main burden.
Yesterday  a lieutenant colonel and  major Tumurbaatar who is the Head of the patrol department of the metropolitan PD came to see Yan and talked about trading  400 tons of iron  in exchange for rice, candies and textiles. They agreed to meet at the Police Department in a minister's office on Monday at 9 am."

"Yan was first invited by Bold who is the husband of Tseden-Ish from the passport office. They are close friends. Yan  told me that he is willing  to get a credit  by carrying out the order of Cultural Center."

Clarification:  The  story about "cutting the canon pipe" and "blow up" didn't match with the one of "Ts".

Suggestion:
- Inform "Head" sufficiently to understand the stuff and let him work actively  in regards to Yan
- Give the agent the  necessary instructions so that the agent would not get involved in crimes later on
- give "Ts" a mini tape recording  device  when  "Ts" meets  with Yan today at 4 pm.
- 2 photographs were taken for study purposes. (attached):
1. the woman with a white shirt and glasses on the left side is said to be from the Intelligence
2. in the next photo:  the third form the left with a white coat is the young woman Tun Sho Bin, and on her left is Yan Ju Hua. On the left of "N" is Pon Chun who is the Deputy of the State Council of China.

About the "Cultural Center"

The agent gave the following information after "Head" returned from a private trip to China :

"...'Head' met with the woman from the Cultural Center through her husband. She asked 'Head'   if Yan  gave her any message and when 'Head' asked about what, she said  that they want to invite  some more high ranking Mongolian officials. 'Head'  told her that  "N" is the only one 'Head'  met through business matters and there is no other such officials 'Head' knows.
She also asked about:
- raising the prices in March, and why
- whether there are enough supplies in the shops because of the raised prices
- how is "N"s mood  after he returned home
- if  "N" would do another trip
and 'Head' gave the appropriate answers.

Furthermore she told  'Head'  that even though the name of the organization is "Center of Cultural cooperation", our people are important government officials and  'Head' should not forget it and tell anybody about it either.  This time they gave 'Head' the booklet about their main office. Last time when they invited "N" they let "N" stay at big hotels.

Yan  has booked the return ticket for  21st  of this month. There are two Chinese coming with Yan.  The one is supply manager of a Beijing hotel and the other one is a shift supervisor. They provided services when 'Head'  was in Beijing, with food. They told 'Head' that they are going to come to Mongolia with  100,000 (one hundred thousand)  Yuan and buy a two room  apartment and start a trading business in Russia and Poland. If successful, they plan to establish a small business in Mongolia. Important is that their visa need to be extended for one year and  they want  that 'Head' helps them in this matter. They  promised enough money award  for the person who helps with their visa extension..."

Clarification:
-  'Head' is saying that Mao Guo Hu , secretary of the Cultural Center, is 70%  secret service person.
-  the husband of that " Cultural Center"-woman is trying to go to Mongolia soon.
- they use 'Head's ignorance and  it means  something why they would say things  like that  now

Suggestion:
- officials need to be on alert regarding Yan
- let the 'Head' suggest  to invite the woman with whom Yan has connection, to Mongolia
- when Yan comes back let 'Head' and "Ts" scrutinize him to find out what new instructions he received

Secret material #7

                      To Chairman of the Department 

7.28.1992

About  Yan Ju Hua

'Head' gave some additional information about Yan:

"...When Minister "N" was in Beijing, Pon Chun (deputy of Li Pen) has met with Yan  and  told him that he needs to work on getting the copper from Erdenet, and in exchange Mongolia can get anything it wants."

"...Yan is not a wealthy man, but he is clever and knowledgeable.  He can deal with anybody and win others' trust.  He is not a member of the Chinese Communist Party and has been critical of the policy of current Chinese leaders. He says, someday will be a blood bath in Beijing.

Yan is trying to win the trust of Mongols he is dealing with and work hard to settle down here.  He  thinks that he can work here as a representative of the Cultural Center  after carrying out successfully the given order.
He had a letter from the Cultural Center and he was introduced to the  cultural affairs' official  at the Chinese Embassy in Ulaanbaatar. Yan met him twice inside the Embassy and it is unknown what they talked about.

Yan told me  to study the purpose of Minister "X"s trip to China and asked why he is hiding his biography.
He said "X" might be going to investigate..."

I told him, as you instructed me, that "..Minister "X" is traveling just to see other places like the Minister "N".
Besides, it was you who  wanted me to find such high ranking officials and persuade them to visit China. He might be going  in the free time between the sessions..."

"...Yan recently went to Russia with a woman who is a deputy chair of foreign relationship of a trade organization in a southern province of China. She is about 40. He will come back on the 1st and will  then go to China. He instructed me to make ready  the biography of Minister "X" by the time he comes back..."

"The husband of the  woman from the Cultural Center is coming in August with Yan. This woman supports Yan  in every aspects and has an affair with him. Her husband is the deputy administrator of the Hongkong market in Beijing.  She is planning to come later too. She drives a car of a foreign make with a government license.

Yan mentioned that there is likely to be happening a fight with Bolormaa  who is jealous because of Yan's  helping  to accommodate the deputy chair woman mentioned above and meeting  with  her constantly and taking her to Russia on a trip".

Suggestion:
- Yan is working hard. Considering the need to study his work method, it is necessary to employ a Mongol person for that purpose. In that case  Bolormaa, who has a husband-wife  relationship with Yan, might be useful, although  'Head' and  "Ts"  have been working with him. Bolormaa will tell lot more about him even if she quits.
- The biographies of Minister "N" and "X" must be prepared as published in the newspaper and give them to Yan  through 'Head'.

About the meeting with the "Guests"


At the  request of the "Guests" , assistant  "To" and citizen "N" went to their hotel  on 26th of this month  and met them  between 6pm and 8.10pm. The assistant  "To" who translated this  meeting  has provided the following information:

"...Although the appointment was set at 5 pm, "N" was late by  an hour. At the meeting were person #1 and #2, and also  "35".  It scared me to death when "N" told them that "To" just called   him  at 5pm about their arrival, after they greeted each other.  I had  told them that  I had a phone call from "N" at 10 am earlier in the morning.  "35" wondered about 5 pm and asked about it but I pretended  as I didn't hear what he asked and started immediately with the translation..."

"..."N" thanked again for the great hospitality  shown him when he visited in spring.  He inquired about the well-being  of the Chairmen he met, and  asked whether they still doing their job.  Person #1 (the husband of the woman from Cultural Center) responded   with a congratulation for  becoming an MP and said  that all the persons he inquired are doing well..."

"N" wondered why they are in hurry and said that he would  have hosted them if he had  knew it earlier.
Person #1 said that  they are glad to meet today and that they are going back tomorrow, once more congratulating with the election."

"...After that #1 has started straight with the questioning:

#1: - What questions are you dealing with at your sessions?  What  useful things did you discuss to favor Mongolian people?
"N":  Briefly explained about discussing projects of legislation at the sessions

#1: - Why don't you execute people who commit murders?
"N":  gave the appropriate explanation

#1: - What are you discussing  to make improvements in lives of Mongolian  people in 1993?
"N": gave some explanation

#1: - US, Japan and Korea are helping your country.  What country are you intending to develop deeper friendship and relationships  in the future with?
"N": - Those countries are helping us, but they are located far away. Mongolia is an old neighbor to Russia and China. Currently Russia has a difficult situation. So I assume we should develop relationships with China.


 #1: - That would be the best idea.
#2 (superior to #1) : - What do the Mongolians need now?
"N" : - The supply of goods seems to improve compared to last year, but there is a deficit in food products, especially rice and flour.

#1 : - What connections do you have with Minister "X" ?
"N" : - We were schoolmates and often had to communicate on official basis.

#1 : - Why "X" wanted to travel on private invitation when this  person holds  a higher position?
"N"  answered according to our instruction.

#1 : - When will you be able to come visit?
"N" : - impossible before December 5th. After that I might get some time.

#1 : - if you both want to visit on a private invitation  Minister "X" should write a personal letter to the Chairman of the Cultural Center, Mr. Mao Go Hua stating the willingness to visit China on private business.
But in your case there is no need of such a letter.  Minister "X" will be received at a higher level  if decides to visit.  If you both come visit together, you will be treated at different level, in  separate places..."

Page 2.

"...If "X" wants to visit officially then our Embassy in Ulaanbaatar needs to be informed and arrange  everything in front.  This would be a case between the two Governments.  Are you willing to come with "X" together?"
"N" :- I thinks so. Better together.

#1 : - Meet "X" in near future and find out in what way the visit should be. "35" and "To" will be leaving for   Beijing soon on business. Let them know about the decision. If you think there is no need to deliver it by these people, we will contact you  directly in English by phone or by telegram.  I will tell my wife  about  the situation and fulfill your  requests. We will receive you both.
(in this moment "35" has intervened saying that they have the invitation for "X" when #1 responded in Chinese,  "don't  say anything about it")


#1 : - Do you have any other request?
"N" : - No
#1 : - Did you gave the letter to the official  for cultural affairs of the Embassy here?
"N" : - Yes

#1 : - Do you see him?  He could be useful for you, so keep in touch. Can you help to extend "35"s visa for one year? This person  did  a lot to develop  the relationship of the two countries.
"N" : - Met him just once, to deliver your letter.  I  will try to influence in "35"s visa extension matter.
Let me know in front when you come to visit next time. I will receive  you in more convenient way.

#1: - We bought a mounted horn trophy of a wild goat for $80 in Bayangol hotel shop. Help us next time to pass the customs with two pairs of mounted head with horns of deer. We will pay any price.
Also get us cashmere shirts as many packages as possible.

And he reached for his bag and pulled out few ties and gave "N" as gifts.


"35"  held  it back when  a colored close-up photo showing   "35", "N", and a Deputy chair of a Standing committee during "N"s visit back in spring, was about  to be handed over to "N" as present. (We have this picture. G.G)

#1 and #2 bought a dinner for "N" at the  Ulaanbaatar Hotel in the smaller salon.
#1 paid in total 2139 Tugrik for that dinner and hiw wallet was full of 50 Tugrik bills.
#1 let "To" to translate the check-out bill and instructed to change the detailed bill which said 1 bottle of vodka, ...beers, ...sodas etc. to a simple note saying the "total cost for dinner with the Minister is 4200 Tugrik". The waitress was about 30 years old, and had short hair and red pullover.

On Monday evening they paid their hotel bill. A daily rate was $48, but this  was changed to  $700.
"35" was saying that his wife's sister had written this note.
After I met with "N" at the square and got his business card, and went to see #1, he asked questions like,  "what  was "N" saying", " what could be the purpose of their  visit". I told him, "how could I know the business of Government Ministers" and "it is not something of my capability", and "it was you who instructed me and "35" to find such persons and send them".

#1's father is still alive, a pensioner who retired from the Ministry of State Security. #1  has said that he got a permission from  the said Ministry to come here. "35" told me that he and his superior are from the Secret Service.

Clarification:

- an evidence to use for defining  Chinese interest area and work method.
- they came to gather some information from "N" and  to get familiar with the situation in person
- "35" and "To" will go this Friday to China for an  official trip  on behalf of the correctional organization
- following photographs  are taken:    #1, and #2 being together  with  "35",  the moment when they buying huge amount of postal cards and stamps, and  #1 and #2 handing it  over to a companion  on Monday
- the alleged  wife of "35" is 23 years old, unemployed and lives with her sister. She has no parents,and is not married. Her name is Bolormaa.

Page 3.

"To" assures that she has decent characters. (attached are the official envelops with printed address given to "To" by #1 and #2)


Suggestion:

- the confidentiality  of this operation must be kept tight  (it becomes more serious)
- the visa of "35" expires on 30th. The Center of Registration and Information wouldn't want to extend it.
On Friday "35" goes to China and by that time try to give him a visa for  multiple entrance (because if he leaves, some other Chinese will take his duties and it is not sure if we can get the new guy)
I observed that they use "To" for translation and  for some small errands for now because "To" stayed for a long time in Mongolia, speaks Mongolian, knows many people and has lower level of education.
But if "35" learns to speak Mongolian fluently, "To" might be excluded from the game. Therefore we concentrate on studying him effectively and rapidly,  and making him to work for us . We have been informed that he does not agree with the policy of current Chinese leaders, and has marriage problems, and is not wealthy and loves money.
- meet with "X" and "N" to discuss and confirm further plans
- reveal Bolormaa's sister's identity through "To"s  "wife" 'Tu'. Meet with the woman who changed the bill of 2139 Tugrik to 4200 Tugrik.

Secret material # 9


                           To the Department Chairman

11.02.1992

Regarding  "35"


Assistant "To" has requested a meeting and gave the following information:

"...Yesterday "35"  has left with two others to help with their business. An office supervisor of the Chinese Embassy in Ulaanbaatar , Mr.Lyu has come to  the train station with his wife to say  goodbye  to "35". (what is his position? G.G)
Mr.Lyu and "35"  were seen standing isolated and discussing privately  before the departation. When the train arrived  Mr.Lyu  said to the train operator,  "This  is our man. Take him with you",  and  "35" was given  the first  compartment  in train car #5  just for him.

The other two Mongols took a separate compartment. "35" traveled without a ticket. Mr.Lyu gave a  package saying, "this  is a video tape with a recording made on September 30 at a  reception at Chinese Embassy and  show it to your family".

I was surprised why "35" never told me that he knows Mr.Lyu. It is also weird that only "35" was invited to the reception on September 30 and no one from the other Chinese  who were here on official business.

A man named Jan Lyu Min who lived with "35" at the same address has arrived yesterday from Beijing.  He works for a Hong-Kong- Chinese joint company. This time he bought an apartment, Apt.# 108, building # 30 in 15th micro-district. This apartment was bought for him by a Chinese about whom I mentioned to you earlier, through his connection and this Chinese also helped him to get visa  for multiple entries from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

He (Jan Lyu Min) told me the following:
- "the wife of "35" got very upset when she heard about  his situation in Mongolia, especially about his affair with a Mongol woman. She says either she will divorce or she won't let him go back when he returns. The husband of Culture Center-woman, Mr.Sun who was in Mongolia earlier met with me before I left for Mongolia. He brought 1000 Yuan given by his wife (Culture  Center-woman) and said it is a business money meant for "35"".

He said also that his company can   pay all expenses if "N" who was to visit  once before is willing to visit again. "Tell "N" about this proposal and if he agrees I can take him with me and I have the official invitation with me", he said.

Jan came to Mongolia with an authorization to invest 1.5 million Yuan and looking for a partner.

"To" added  that "35" is different than he expected, does not talk much, and is somebody with bad intentions, and does lot of things.

Clarification:
- "To" leaves on Wednesday
- Jan Lyu Min has arrived

Suggestion:
- it is getting complicated, especially the fact that #2 met with Jan in Beijing and that Jan came to visit here;
explanation and analyses needed
- things regarding "35" need to be documented

About Ushu Yan, and Sun Lyan

The assistant "Head" reports:

"... I met with the consular chair of the Chinese Embassy, Mr.Bai, to give him the invitation for Yan Ju Hua. He said, "...the Mongols and Chinese know that you play games for cash. I might go back this summer. Li Ji Yan who worked in  Mongolia before, will take over my job. Help Ushu Yan as much as you can."
He also said that Yan's invitation will be given to the train operator from Khukh khot to get it delivered.

A Chinese  told me that  Sun Lyan who lives in Apt.# 42, building # 19 in Sansar micro-district, is an agent of secret service of Khukh khot,China.  An argument between these two because of some money issue prompted him to say that. Ushu Yan lives with his wife in Apt.# 46, building # 15 in Sansar micro-district. He once smuggled $120,000 from Russia and hid it  at the Chinese Embassy; the police searched his apartment but couldn't find anything.  Lately Mr.U would keep his money (Tugrik and Dollar) at the Embassy and he travels to China often and brings lot of dollars borrowed from the bank..."

Clarification/suggestion:

- Diplomat Bai is known to us
- Yan's invitation is given to him
- Mr.Bai leaves and Mr. Li comes instead
- report it to appropriate departments

About the meeting with Tao

1. Since what year do you know about Nyamdorj?

I happened to know him since 1990s.  I brought a mirror factory from China and made a contract  with Dendev and Shagdarsuren. I met with Sanjaasuren too. He told me where the office of Nyamdorj, the deputy Minister of Justice Ministry, is located. I met him to get the money for the mirror.
Nyamdorj demanded  from Davaaochir to export  3 train cars of full wood planks, two of which arrived in Ereen, China and one car was taken out by somebody else on the way there.

8,9 months after that I met Nyamdorj at the Correctional Authority Agency and he said to see him at his office when needed. One month later I met him in Sanjaasuren's office and he said he could not help with fertilizer  but he could  supply  with planks. After that Sanjaasuren went to China on the mirror factory business.

The deputy chairman of Amgalan's correctional facility Mr.Lkhagvasuren  told me to accompany   Minister Nyamdorj on his China trip. He drove me with his own car to the train station and told me that Minister Nyamdorj is in train car #4.  He bought me a ticket in car # 5.  On the way I went to car#4 and saw Nyamdorj being with Yan Ju Hua and 2 other Mongols. Nyamdorj an Yan have asked me once to go to train-restaurant to eat. I refused to go.  In Ereen arrived, Nyamdorj, Yan and I went to a restaurant to eat.

Page 2.

Next morning Nyamdorj  said he likes  fried cabbage and ate 2 pieces of something looked like a fried dough.
After that  Yan went to Nyamdorj's  room and changed his clothes and  drove in  2 cars which came  to pick us up. In the first car were Tun, Nyamdorj and Yan, and in the second were I with Tun's  husband.
We drove to a big hotel went in to a special room. We were greeted  by Tsao Da  Pen, Mao Guo Hua, a Chinese-Russian translator, and Lyu Shia Min. They introduced themselves to each other and Mao Guo Hua asked from Nyamdorj  questions about  "where he works, what position he has, how old is he, how long he's been working, who his family members are, how many children he has, whether he has a car, and where he lives-in an apartment or a ger.

Mao had a small briefcase and pushed some kind of button on it. He carried  his briefcase on his back. He said, "Our organization-the Culture  Center- wants to cooperate with you and we re interested in your Erdenet mining company and  places with iron deposits. Can you make a proposal at the Government level about this?" 


Mao was talking in Chinese and Nyamdorj was speaking in Russian and a Chinese man who speaks Russian has translated between these two. The meeting lasted for more than one hour. Afterwards all participants went to a hotel called "Beijing panda" and had lunch. After lunch everyone was brought back to the original hotel for an hour rest.
(Nyamdorj spent 6,7 days in Beijing. On 18th he returned to Ulaanbaatar).

Page 3.

On the way to Beijing , Yan assured that we don't have to worry and we will be received and will be given an apartment to stay. I translated it for Nyamdorj.  Tun Sho Bin was waiting at the train station  to welcome us and there were 2 or 3 men accompanying her. Tun Sho Bin, Nyamdorj and Yan drove in a Benz of grey color and I was in another car, and we drove to a hotel called Tende Dashin. The receptionist checked the passports  (mine, Nyamdorj's and Yan's) and registered us. She led  us a to  the 8th floor and two maids greeted Nyamdorj and showed him the room he is going to take. They introduced the room amenities like the fridge etc. and told him he can drink whatever he wants.

They placed me in a different room further from Nyamdorj's room. Yan went home.  We, Yan, Tun Sho Bin, Nyamdorj and I, ate at the hotel restaurant and  a liquor in a 750ml bottle was offered. Nyamdorj didn't drink by taking just a sip. Tun Sho Bin introduced us the prepared plan, printed, about where to go and what to see etc.  Nyamdorj said he agreed to it.  Tun Sho Bin instructed to serve the dish which Nyamdorj most likes. 


Page 4.
 
An alleged Chinese Minister named Li Jian  has invited  us to meet in a different hotel in Beijing.  Yan, Tun Sho Bin, Nyamdorj and the Russian-speaking Chinese translator have met  him. I was excluded.  Yan told me to wait outside. Li Jian talked about an hour with Nyamdorj.  After that Li Jian gave us lunch  at a different hotel called Bei Lai.  At the lunch  Li Jian gave a toast and thanked Nyamdorj for visiting. He said that they will meet later again. After lunch we went to our hotel  and rested for an hour before Tun Sho Bin drove us  to the "China Center of International Culture Exchange"  building. It was a 5-story building  located in west south from  our hotel.

They showed Nyamdorj the offices and offered him a tee. The conversation was carried out in Russian language. Then Tun told Yan to take the car and go out to see the city. We visited the biggest shopping center in Beijing. According to the schedule, on that evening a meeting with a Government official was planned. 
We went to a Government building near the Tienanmen square. A man named Pan Sun  greeted us and introduced himself as a Government official.

At this meeting were present: Tun Sho Bin, Yan, Nyamdorj, Ms.Lyu, Russian language translator, and myself.
The meeting lasted more than 2 hours. They talked about Chinese-Mongolian relationship, cooperation and the political  parties etc. The translation was in Russian language. Pan Sun was speaking in a sanji dialect which I didn't understand well.

Page 5.

Pan Sun gave dinner in honor of Nyamdorj at the Government building. Pictures were taken after dinner.
Pan Sun ordered Tun Sho Bin to show us Tianjin.  The next day we, Tun Shi Bin, Nyamdorj, Tun Sho Bin's husband, Mao Guo Hua, the Russian translator and I  went to Tianjin.  The mayor of Tianjin met Nyamdorj at a hotel. They introduced the city. Tun Sho Bin's husband and I were left at the hotel.  They excluded me from the lunch.

Nyamdorj received a table lamp with a clock and something in a  box as gift. In the evening we returned from Tianjin.  Yan and Nyamdorj drank the whole night; Yan has a basic knowledge of Mongolian and Russian.
Nyamdorj vomited and Yan has ordered me to clean it up. It needs to be cleaned before Tun Sho Bin  shows up, he said.
Nyamdorj drank 200 ml liquor in the morning and  aid he was doing much better, and ate.  Yan , Nyamdorj and I ate together.  On that day, Tun Sho Bin came and showed us the Beijing Zoo. We had lunch at the Zoo.

Mao Guo Hua and Tsao Da Pen have met 3 times with Nyamdorj separately. They didn't include me; don't know if they met at nights.
Yan and Nyamdorj would drink usually every night heavily (liquor and beer). Room cleaner would take the bottles out and put outside. The cost for drinks piled up  to 5120 Yuan.(drinks from the refrigerator)
Tun Sho Bin signed on the payment bill.

The room rate was $160 a day.  Every day the clothes were cleaned. The shirts and socks were washed and ironed every night. 
Yan gave Nyamdorj 800 Yuan on the 17th  to use for shopping and asked if it was enough. He said yes.


Page 6.
With  this money Nyamdorj bought candies for his wife and children, and 40 bottles of liquor with a label showing a bird. He was checking rings for his wife.  Later he received two albums full of pictures taken during his visit.
Tun Sho Bin's husband gave him silk for making deel, and a beautiful snuff bottle ( in a nice case with bird picture on it) of a white  color with greenish tone. The stopper was red of color.

Tsao Da Pen and Mao Guo Hua gave Nyamdorj  something in a cartoon box as a gift.  Tun Sho Bin, Mao Guo Hua, Yan, and Tun's husband  came to say goodbye when he left for Mongolia. At the train station Mao Guo Hua gave Nyamdorj  something in  a big,yellow, hard paper envelope saying that it was for Chinese Embassy official named Wan, and Nyamdorj put it in his briefcase.

On his way back, Nyamdorj was saying things like "Thanks to Yan I had the opportunity to visit Beijing and I liked it. It sure did cost a lot and how I am going to pay back..."
(Bold and Tseden-Ish have invited Yan and brought him)
Tun Sho Bin paid for Nyamdorj's train ticket. In Ulaanbaatar Nyamdorj was welcomed  by someone who was dressed in  correctional official's uniform.
(Bold and Tseden-Ish have initially introduced  Nyamdorj with Yan)

To the Cultural attache of the Chinese Embassy in Mongolia, Mr. Jao  Wen Jun

The China Center of International culture  exchange

Comrade Wen Jun, I couldn't write you lately and inform you about the latest, and so I am writing it now.
It needs new efforts to improve the cultural cooperation between China and Mongolia. Few days ago the Deputy Minister of Justice, Mr.Nyamdorj visited us on a private trip, an idea which was organized by the Cultural Center and introduced  to him through my friend. I met him few times and we talked a lot.  We got to know each other better and we discussed about establishing a cooperation with the Center and , doing  some trading businesses,  and building a cultural relationship.

We were left happy with the results and agreed to talk more in detail  later on. This is going to be a bridge for future communication. Since you are in Mongolia, it would be easier for you to communicate with him and that is why I want to  introduce him. Communicate through the Embassy about any business matter and inform the Center.

Comrade Guo Hua  was thinking about writing you a letter as well, but he was abroad on business and came back to meet Nyamdorj in Beijing just before he was about to leave.   He let me write this letter and informed the Center about the situation as well. The situation here is excellent.  I'll let you know next time more in detail about it. See you in Beijing.

The office phone number is changed to   4652319, and the number of the Center to  4674422.

(from the script of agents who worked on Nyamdorj's case).

... - Tun Sho Bin's husband and his acquaintance have arrived in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and met with Nyamdorj at the UB hotel. Bold translated for them.
- When Yan met with Nyamdorj , Yan  asked  if  he (Nyamdorj)  wants to visit Beijing again, and if his  wife wants to come with. Yan also said that he can arrange all that.
- The public and the media should not know about Nyamdorj's visit to China, said Yan.
When Nyamdorj was in Beijing, Yan told him not to tell others  about meeting he had with officials. 
Tun Sho Bin warned Nyamdorj that he  should not use the phone communication, but can send letters through Yan. 
- the people who met with Nyamdorj  mentioned in their conversation about secret service agents. A woman named Ms.Lyu (wears glasses) took notes  during the meetings with Nyamdorj.
- based on the conversations of Culture Center- people, and on their meeting with Nyamdorj, it was clear that they are not ordinary citizens. They work under the umbrella name of Culture Center.
- the purpose of inviting  Nyamdorj to  visit  China is to study Mongolia's situation through Nyamdorj and work together with him.

Final thoughts from Sodon:

MP Nyamdorj Ts.
It is a shame that our officials act like a puppy who would follow anybody when offered food. The only difference is that our Government official, in this case Mr.Nyamdorj Ts., has a brain to think what he was doing, when a puppy has no ability to think if that food-offering person is an enemy or a friend. Since Nyamdorj is a person with higher education and  took an oath to serve the country, his action cannot be viewed like one of that puppy. He acted on purpose and sold  his honor  cheap.  He served foreign people with information in exchange for money, food and alcohol. He betrayed his country. So he can be called  as a traitor. 
And lastly, there are many potential traitors  among the MPs and Government officials from the Mongolian People's Party.  Beware of those  traitors!
To  Nyamdorj, one final advice: Renounce your Mongolian citizenship and move to China! You will be safe there.
