Voice of Mongolia is the official international broadcasting station of Mongolia.

The Voice Of Mongolia is the country's only overseas broadcasting service and is operated by Mongolian National Broadcaster, a public service broadcaster of the Mongolian Government. Short-wave international broadcasting in Mongolia dates back over 30 years. The first broadcast in September, 1964 was a half hour transmission in the Mongolian and Chinese, beamed to China. In the next few years, Mongolian international broadcasting expanded in terms of languages used, broadcast hours and target areas. The English service of Radio Ulaanbaatar, which was renamed The Voice Of Mongolia on January 1, 1997, was launched on January, 29, 1965. Today the output of The Voice Of Mongolia consists of various programmes designed to provide information about Mongolia and the Mongolians, their history, traditions and culture. Keeping to the new policy of the Mongolian Government, The Voice Of Mongolia does not engage in propaganda, but in unbiased reporting. It broadcasts a total of 8 hours a day in 5 languages: Mongolian, English, Chinese, Russian and Japanese.

Current broadcasts

All of The Voice Of Mongolia's broadcasts come directly from its Khonkhor Transmitting Station, about 25 km east of Ulan Bator, Mongolia's capital. It broadcasts through Soviet-made 100, 250, and 500 kW transmitters and curtain antennas built in the mid sixties. The transmissions beamed to East Asia provide fair reception in South America, and the South Asian transmissions can be heard in Southern Africa and in Europe as well. However, this reception is influenced by propagation conditions and frequency congestion.
