After the collapse of the Soviet Union change was visible all over Mongolia and especially in Ulan Bator. So many sharp contrasts between old and new ways, traditional and post-modern life. In the morning you could sit in a ger on the steppes drinking Airag or salted brick tea and in the evening go to a laser disco show downtown UB. Here a man in his traditional deel walking by a cinema advertising the movies played that day. So, what’s the choice for tonight, Jesus or Bruce Lee? (Ulan Bator 1994).
