About Mongolia Weekly
Mongolia Weekly was launched in April 2019 by Amar Adiya, who had previously worked as a diplomat for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mongolia and as a political analyst for Rio Tinto. Amar said he wanted to create a platform that would provide engaging coverage and deep insights into Mongolia for a global business audience. He also said he wanted to fill the gap in the English-language media landscape in Mongolia, which he felt was dominated by state-owned or foreign-funded outlets.
Mongolia Weekly started as a newsletter that was sent to subscribers every weekend. The newsletter contains an exclusive interview with a key opinion leader, an expert analysis of a current issue, an infographic that visualizes data or trends, and a forecast of upcoming events.
In 2020, Mongolia Weekly launched its website, which hosted articles on various topics related to Mongolia. The website also had categories for exclusives, which were longer-form pieces that explored specific themes or issues in depth; and for features, which were shorter pieces that highlighted interesting aspects of Mongolian culture, society, or history.
In 2022, Mongolia Weekly became a Google News published source, which meant that its articles were indexed and displayed by Google News. This increased the platform's visibility and reach among online readers. Mongolia Weekly has its pages on LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram where it shared its articles and updates with its followers.
