ref: 2010 February 21 [2009 August 28], Peipei Zhou, “WHY WE TRAVEL READER PHOTO”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 27 Dec 2023, Travel:
text: The temporary-permanent workers facilitate the itinerant traders’ activities. The chanjuud and the yanhan stay longer in Ereen than the naimaachin and the jolooch, who carry out multiple trips between Zamyn üüd and Ereen, between Mongolia and China. The chanjuud and jolooch are mostly men, while the naimaachin and yanhan are mostly women. Thus, the appropriation of the Free Trade Zone of Erlian-Zamyn üüd by Mongols illustrates the transformations that take place in the social organisation and gender relationships of contemporary Mongolian societies, both in Mongolia and China.
