Mongolian coalition cabinet falls

The MPRP ministers in the cabinet have offered their resignation.

UPDATE 1
From the communist Indian State of Kerela the first report comes in:
''This is not coming out of the blue,'' Tjalling Halbertsma, adviser to the office of Mongolia's president, told Reuters.


China follows:
"The government has no legal foundation or capacity to exist. A political vacuum has been created in Mongolia," the MPRP said in the statement.


For even more entertainment a new lottery will be launched.

Demonstrations are announced for today on Sukhbaatar square.

UPDATE 3
Mongolia Web reports on the Minister resignation and the MPRP press conference.

UPDATE 4
People have gathered around the MPRP building to demonstrate against the current political developments. The army has been called in to control the crowd.

Garett: I have to agree with you that doesn't look good on the MPRP

Yan: As far as I know no images yet. Thanks for your referal, I saw your post in the serach engines, but cannot reach the blogspot domain from home, as my provider probably has its internet access through China.

My girlfriend has found quite a lot of pictures here.

The building with the broken windows is the MPRP headquarters.
