           ... Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the Founding of the Inner Mongolian People’s Party, the Southern Mongolian Human Rights Information Center (SMHRIC) announces the release of Genocide on the Mongolian Steppe: First-hand Accounts of Genocide in Southern Mongolia during the Chinese Cultural Revolution (Volume II), translated from Japanese into English by SMHRIC Director Enghebatu Togochog. “This year, 2025, marks the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Southern [Inner] Mongolian People’s Party, established in 1925 as the preeminent political organization in Southern Mongolian history,” Togochog stated in the “Translator’s Acknowledgement” of the book.

Hudson Institute recommends U.S. government support the independence of Southern Mongolia in the event of the CCP collapse

           ...  Inner Mongolia The Autonomous Region of Inner Mongolia will face three choices: gaining independence, remaining as an autonomous part of China, or uniting with the neighboring Republic of Mongolia. Though unification may at first seem reasonable, a closer look indicates it is not likely, and the United States should support its sovereign independence instead. Inner Mongolia borders the Republic of Mongolia, which is one of the world’s most sparsely populated countries with just 3.3 million people and ranks among the free nations of the world.248 Once part of the Mongol Empire of Genghis Khan, Mongols on both sides of the border share a common language and continue contact with cross-border trade and travel. Some 95 percent of the residents of the Republic of Mongolia are ethnically Mongol, and many of them, like many within Inner Mongolia’s ethnic Mongolian community, are Buddhist.249 Tibetan Buddhism arrived there in the sixteenth century, and four centuries later, reportedly a third of the Republic of Mongolia’s adult males were Buddhist monks. In 2016, the Dalai Lama discovered a boy there whom he considers the reincarnation of a high spiritual leader. Inner Mongolia, though, has been the target of accelerating forced  ....

SMHRIC Statement at "Pathway Forward: UNPFII Debrief and Indigenous Peace-building as an International Peace, Healing and Security Issue"

           ...  My name is Engehbatu Togochog, and I am a Mongolian from the indigenous Mongolian community in Southern Mongolia or known as “Inner Mongolia” of the People’s Republic of China. I would like to take this opportunity to bring to your attention what is happening in the six million indigenous Mongolians’ community in Southern Mongolia. Southern Mongolia was taken over by the People’s Republic of China in 1949. During the past seven decades, the government of China took away our political rights, destroyed our indigenous way of life and devastated our natural environment. What is happening now in my community is an ongoing “cultural genocide” carried out by the government of China, aiming at the complete erasure of our language and identity. Starting September 2023, the government of China COMPLETELY banned Mongolian language in the entire educational system from kindergartens to colleges and all spheres of public life. This is happening as we speak. I would like to kindly ask for your attention to this massive “cultural genocide” that is happening in front of the eyes of the international community. China signed for the UNDRIP (United Nations Declaration on Rights of Indigenous Peoples) with an absurd justification claiming that “China does not ....
