ULAN BATOR, Jan. 11 (Xinhua) -- The Mongolian parliament on Friday appointed Chultem Ulaan as the new minister of food, agriculture and light industry.

Ulaan replaced Batjargal Batzorig who resigned late October due to a scandal involving financial irregularities.

An experienced member of the ruling Mongolian People's Party, Ulaan was appointed by 52 lawmakers in the 76-seat parliament.

The 65-year-old served three times as finance minister in 2002-2004, 2007-2008 and 2012-2014. In addition, he served as deputy prime minister in 2004-2006.
