Upon taking office as Chairman, Dorzhiev made this statement about his hopes for the fifth convocation.
Is a situation with fires and droughts a system malfunction? I think it's a system malfunction. [...] I have been a deputy of five convocations and I realize that each convocation has held some kind of advantage. I remember all the chairmen of the People's Khural and how they worked. I think the fifth convocation should work as planned... [...] If they elect me, I will do my best to unite the People's Khural. I promise to be such a [good] chairman every deputy will know that we are fighting for quality.
