As Mongolians go to the polls to elect a new parliament on Thursday, many concers remain over government corruption. When former Mongolian president Nambaryn Enkhbayar claimed authoritarian strong-arming after his arrest over corruption charges, many voters still supported his party. And while current president Elbedgorj Tsakhia maintains it is up to the courts, and not public opinion, to deliver Enkhbayar's verdict, Transparency International still ranks the country 120th out of 183 nations on the corruption scale. Al Jazeera's Steve Chao reports from Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
