SUPPORTER OF RULING MNDP GIVES THUMBS UP UNDER ELECTION CAMPAGIN POSTER NEAR ULAN BATOR, 2000-06-28...

A supporter of the ruling Mongolian Democratic Party (MNDP) gives a thumbs up in front of the party's election campaign poster in Gachuurt, 30km east of capital Ulan Bator June 28. The ruling MNDP are trailing the opposition Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party (MPRP) in the polls as the MPRP are capitalising on widespread disillution with the ruling Democratic Coalition after four cabinet resignations and a series of corruption scandal. Mongolians are preparing to vote on July 2 in an election which may bring their former Communist rulers back to power after a decade of democracy. ASW/DL
