President meets delegation of Unicode Consortium
Society
Ulaanbaatar/MONTSAME/. The Unicode Consortium and the Communications and Information Technology Authority of Mongolia co-organized the 3rd Unicode Mongolian Working Group Meeting on April 4th-5th, 2019.
President of Mongolia
Khaltmaagiin Battulga today received the delegation of the Unicode Consortium
that came to Mongolia to attend the meeting, including Lisa Moore, Vice
President of the Unicode Consortium and Chair of the Unicode Technical
Committee, Deborah Anderson, Technical Director of the Unicode Consortium, and
Andrew Glass, technical expert.
President Battulga
appreciated the active involvement of the Unicode Consortium in the encoding of
the traditional Mongolian script and expressed his pleasure with the consensus
that has been reached on retaining the traditional phonetic model of encoding
the script.
Ms. Moore spoke about the
Mongolian Working Group Meeting that took place in San Jose, the United States,
during which it was concluded that a phonetic model would be used instead of a
graphetic model. Therefore, more efforts will be directed towards
simplification and enhancement of the phonetic model.
Regarding this matter, the
delegation of the Unicode Consortium exchanged views with G.Uyanga, Human
Rights and Civil Society Policy Advisor to the President, and the
representatives of the National Council on Language Policy.
