When I was in UB, they had coverage on TV of awards ceremonies, together with interviews with recent awardees. All in Mongolian, so it went over my linguistic head. Nice images though. So far, they are still awarding (nasty brass versions of) the old awards. There is much talk, however, about changing things, and setting up new awards. There is a chance they'll involve Someone Who Knows A Lot about Mongolian awards in this process. We may hope so, as they've certainly come out with some ugly and ahistorical stuff so far.
