“I am greatly honored and extremely appreciative to be one of the recipients of the China Development Bank scholarship award. It fills myself and my family with pride to be able to be a part of this along with my classmates. I hope that in the future, I can work closely with the CDB to show them my appreciation and their support for developing countries like Mongolia, as well as students from my country and similar ones in the future. Thank you very much, I truly appreciate it" said Anand Batsukh, a second year MBA student in the Tsinghua School of Economics and Management.
