Mongolia bans civil servants from playing in casinos
Ulaanbaatar, Apr 3 (Xinhua/UNI) The Mongolian government on Wednesday decided to prohibit all government employees from playing casino games and staying in any gambling places at home and abroad.
"No government official is allowed to gamble," Luvsannamsrai Oyun-Erdene, head of the cabinet secretariat, told a press conference.
Reports have been made public in recent years that Mongolian civil servants, especially high-ranking officials of state-owned companies, have played in casinos in foreign countries, Oyun-Erdene said.
Anyone found violating the ban will be fired.
