          ULAN BATOR, Oct. 19 (Xinhua) -- Mongolia's Independent Agency Against Corruption (IAAC) will intensify its fight against corruption in the education sector, an official of the country's top anti-corruption agency said Friday.

          "Recently, we have started carrying out an extensive campaign to curb corruption in the education sector. Furthermore, we will more intensify our efforts to totally eliminate corruption in this sector," Tuvshinsaikhan Bayarkhuu, head of the prevention and enlightenment department at the IAAC, said in a monthly regular press conference.

          Under the campaign, director of School No.1 in Ulan Bator Gendenjamts Bum-Erdene was arrested two weeks ago while taking a large amount of bribes from a parent who wanted to enroll his child in the school, according to the anti-corruption agency.

          School No.1 is among the most prestigious public schools in Mongolia.

          A week after Bum-Erdene's arrest, the IAAC arrested another director of a reputable school in the country also accepting bribes. Lkhagvasuren Erdene is director of New Era International High School in the country.

          It is not easy for parents to enroll their children in prestigious public schools in the Mongolian capital Ulan Bator, partly due to over-population. As of the end of 2017, Ulan Bator hosted almost half of Mongolia's three million population.

          The IAAC is a government body responsible for combating corruption.
