After traveling for three days in this remote valley in an all-terrain
vehicle, we came across Sulegmaa's solitary ger (tent). Like most
Mongolians, his family was very hospitable and invited us in for
cheese and tea. I immediately noticed a small black and white tv
sitting on top of a milk bucket. They told us it was the only tv
within one hundred miles; neighbors would travel for days to visit
and watch. It was connected to a generator and satellite dish, allowing
them to watch Indian, Chinese and Russian movies. (Darkhad)
