The local assignment of Mongolian Prime Minister L. Oyun-Erden continues in Arkhangai province. On this occasion, he got acquainted with the construction process of the newly built 300-bed general hospital in the province.
A comprehensive building that meets the requirements of modern medical standards, consisting of eight blocks, including an ambulatory, an inpatient unit, an oxygen and diesel station building, is being built at a cost of 25.2 billion MNT. Currently, the construction is 85 percent complete.
The main building of the Provincial General Hospital, which is currently operating, was commissioned in 1979. With a capacity of 160 beds, it currently provides referral level health care services with more than 200 beds. In the future, the provincial authorities developed a project to turn the old general hospital building into a “nursing training, research, health care and service complex” under the ASUU. He said that 19.2 billion MNT is needed for this. He also said that there is a shortage of nurses and special specialists in the province.
Governor of the province B. Tserennadmid presented the planning, engineering infrastructure, road improvement solutions and problems of the new settlement zone Bulgankhangai. Arkhangai province has established a new residential area on a total area of 60 hectares, and is working to build and improve Bulgankhangai-1 and 2 neighborhoods. Currently, 1,500 housing units have been allocated in eight locations. It is estimated that more than 113,000 people from 2,830 families will live in the settlement area, and the supply of housing will increase by 45 percent. At present, more than 80% of the province is in residential areas.
The 300-bed general hospital building is one of the first developments in the new residential area, and the Bulgankhangai-2 neighborhood will be put into operation in November this year. In the first 20 hectares of the neighborhood, there are 120 family apartments, 150 kindergartens, swimming pools, 320 children’s schools, sports halls, boarding houses, Emergency Department, Teacher Development Center, Prosecutor’s Office, Musical Drama Theater, “MCS” LLC. 63.2 billion was invested in commercial warehouse buildings, engineering networks, and infrastructure.
He said a total of 18.5 billion MNT is needed for the infrastructure and beautification of Bulgankhangai district, such as roads, bicycle and footpaths, lighting, green facilities, clean water facilities, electricity and heat supply. One of the problems in the province is heat supply. The thermal power plant is privatized, 11 boilers are solely managed by one company. There is not enough capacity to provide heat to newly commissioned enterprises and households with private residences. Therefore, I asked the Prime Minister to pay special attention to the issue of heat supply.
