 We stand at a historical moment in our nation's history, a moment of huge potential and possibility, but also a moment of uncertainty and important choices. We can't predict what the future will hold, but we can't prepare for a range of possibilities. There are key strategic decisions Mongolia's leaders must take to ensure the country's prosperity. Possible responses to these challenges need to be explored so we can find original ways to face the opportunities and trade-offs together. How should the development of the mining industry be managed to maximise benefits to the country? What forms of economic diversification should be pursued? And what relationships for trade and investment need to be nurtured to achieve both? But Mongolia's future is also impacted by forces beyond its control. Will Mongolia's context allow it to produce and sell its main minerals with ease? Will external factors help or hinder the development of other economic opportunities? The possible outcomes of these uncertainties are explored in three scenarios, helping Mongolia to learn and prepare for whichever future arises. In the first scenario, Northeast Asia becomes more politically integrated with strong economic growth, giving Mongolia the opportunity to sell its main minerals and achieve economic diversification. In the second scenario, a revolution in environmental attitudes sees China lead the way toward sustainable green growth, reducing demand for Mongolia's main minerals. However, this opens up new opportunities to diversify into green products and services. In the third scenario, geopolitical tensions ravage the region, making trade difficult. In this world, Mongolia struggles to access finance and markets for its minerals and to achieve economic diversification, but an opportunity is presented to be a respected and neutral neighbor. Stakeholders and experts believe these scenarios suggest common policy responses to the strategic decisions such as developing a good investment and business climate with public buy-in, designing sovereign wealth fund and actively engaging with neighbors. They also suggest that individual scenarios offer interesting policy choices, such as facilitating cross-border infrastructure in regional renaissance, joining green regional supply chains in China greening and locking in long-term contracts and resource tensions. By thinking the unthinkable and imagining how our world can change, we can choose the transformation we want. By looking forward with our eyes open, we will be ready and aware to grasp our future with two hands.
