40

J knew everyone featured on the daily news on Mongolian National Television. He had a big TV on his kitchen wall like the wealthy do in the US. --His English is very good, by the way, he said, gesturing to the man in Sukhbaatar Square with the microphone in his hand. The news program cut to a woman with short hair speaking on a panel. J said, She is my friend, she is a green party representative and she is lobbying for the people in one of the aimags who, because of the actions of a large oil company, now have arsenic in their water.
