A total of 40 selected students who are proficient in English are working in the Mongolian capital as volunteers to provide information services for foreign tourists as part of local efforts to boost tourism during the tourism peak season or until the end of August. "In an effort to attract more tourists by creating a safer environment, we are running the program called "Student Police" in collaboration with Ulan Bator's police department for the sixth year in a row. Majority of foreign tourists, visiting Mongolia, travel through the capital city. So, ensuring the safety of tourists is one of the priorities for us," said the deputy head of Ulaanbaatar's tourism department. The program has helped reduce the tourist-related crime in the capital city.
