Mongolian Political life hosts number of factions, being a ground for the numerous views, conflict of interests, private ambitions and settlements for positions.
Factions have become the frequent in the same political party having differing views and creating discord among themselves.
Recent example will be the announcement made by MPP leader M.Enkhbold during his speech, the fact that factions within DP are having differing views on Tavantolgoi leading to the stalling of the project.
In the political circle many have suspicion that Speaker Z.Enkhbold himself is interested in stalling the project in order to strenghten his seat as the Leader of DP.
People close to sources even confirm that although the current Speaker's negotiation with Mongolian Democratic Union Faction was successful, he could not secure the positive feedback with Polar Star Faction, therefore he is stalling the project in turn for the Leader seat. The reason behind in the number of members of Polar Star faction is outnumbering the other factions within the Democratic Party and therefore Speaker would not have chance to remain in Leader seat. Moreover, Z.Enkhbold is being pointed at as the mastermind behind the drama of dismissing the previous cabinet.
L.Erdenechimeg, member of Mongolian Democratic Union Faction, appointed as the head of the working group to investigate on the Tavantolgoi agreement who is holding back on the project citing to such reasons as translations of the agreement are not matching, might be the move of the Speaker. On the other hand A.Gansukh, close person to Kh.Battulga, is the advisor to the Speaker. He is pointing fingers at the Tavantolgoi agreement is likely well proves the previous stance.
Mongolian Democratic Union Faction gathers in Kh.Battulga's room after each discussion of Tavantolgoi agreement just like Falcon Faction gathers around Z.Enkhbold clearly depicts the existence of the settlments.
This is the example how the mafia like activities disguised as factions are stalling the Tavantolgoi agreements just for mere position in the party.
It has become evident that factions are behind the settlements within the parties who gets which seat, which in turn makes it clear that State Great Khural and City Council are representing interests of Ts.Elbegdorj, N.Enkhbayar, M.Enkhbold, Kh.Battulga, Z.Enkhbold and so on, rather than of the citizens.
What are factions for? It will be safe enough to say that, being in a faction secures the winning in the bids and securing the financing for the projects. The current cabinet members dismissal is also the result of the faction fights within the DP. Many politicians saying that the fight for the rest of the bond money has sharpened and leads to the current situation we are witnessing currently.
It is imperative for the parties and their factions to sober up and think about the country wealth, otherwise the politics will remain dirty as it is.
Probably the leader of the Falcon faction once called for faction free DP due to those dirty tricks happening currently.

The DP is soon to have another faction as well. MPs G.Batkhuu, M.Batchimeg, L.Bold, Ts.Oyungerel are uniting to establish Mongolian Democratic Party initiative or faction, in order to protect the decoratic values, but this initiative hasn't led to any success yet.
