ULAN BATOR, Jan. 11 (Xinhua) -- "I'm very happy that the strict COVID-19 restrictions have been loosened gradually, and we have been allowed to work," said Ochirbat Ariunaa, a woman who runs a sewing workshop here in Mongolia's capital.
Though the number of COVID-19 infections is on the rise, Mongolia partially eased the COVID-19 lockdown measures in the country's capital Ulan Bator starting from Monday with certain conditions to revive the economy and support businesses.
Employees of all types of trade and service organizations, except for 18 types of organizations such as stores carrying non-food items, saunas, bars, hair and beauty salons, and fitness and entertainment centers, are being allowed to return to work, but must obey strict safety guidelines.
