Working out of Minnesota hobbled together 42 years trucking. Marriage, relationships in general hard even when you are primary local. This young lady is doing one of the harder driving jobs I have seen.Big respect.
On behalf of all Mongolians, I thank you sincerely for the captivating and moving documentary. Must be the first media agency to cover such story in Mongolia. I truly appreciate the great work and transparency of the Guardian Media. Hope the better days are coming for all of us! Godspeed to all of us!
This is heartbreaking. I have been a trucker for 32 years. Being away from your family is part of the job. I hope she is able to go back home to her kids. ilona
What a different and captivating documentary! I felt the pride and the despair of her trials and tribulations. I hope her dreams of an unbroken family comes to fruition, She is beautiful, inside and out!

Outstanding documentary. Message for Maikhuu: always wear a face mask when unloading or loading coal, or when just standing in a coal yard. Black lung disease will shorten your life.
Extraordinarily poignant documentation of personal survival in a harsh (so harsh!) environment - goodness, you have to feel for every one of these drivers. Seeing it all through the daily experiences of a mother seeking her way, her connections to family and sources of meaning is heart rending. To the makers of this documentary: thankyou so much for creating this window through which to reflect on the thousand ways we experience and make meaning in our every moment. Without doubt it is the most moving thing I have watched in RUclips in weeks. Thankyou 🔆
It was all a fabricated production, yes the truck envoys are real, but it was a written and directed production. I thought the same but when you see the credits saying director and writer at the end you realise what it really is.
@@khulanwr8641 dude, outside of surveillance cameras, there hasn't been 10 seconds of video produced in the entire history of the world that wasn't intended to make you think a certain way about a topic.
I give a lot of respect to Maikhuu, a single mother of 3 daughters. She has lost her home, and is now starting life afresh. And she is facing all the challenges of life all by herself. And she is seemingly on course to realize her dreams. This young woman clearly, has exceeded my expectations. I wish you all the best, Maikhuu.
Amazing documentary..big salute and respect to hard working people of Mongolia specially mom.. .. thank you filming team for making and sharing such a beautiful documentary ..✌️
What a great documentary, these miners are incredible people ❤Doing it for there family and a better life. The lady driver is the strongest woman I’ve ever seen. Love and respect 🇦🇺
As a fellow over the road CDL 🚛driver, I understand perfectly, what this fellow Driver is going through. My heart ♥️ goes out to her I have been doing it for over 11 years pays great got me, my house 🏡my property 🏔and out of financial💸 debt. But it is a lifestyle not a job
Hat’s off to those who made this documentary depicting the day to day activities in the Gobi and Chinese border. Respect for every single soul working in these harsh environments just to keep the industry and city folks live. Bless your soul. Watch this over any blockbuster at any given time.
Deeply touching ... Inspiring in the midst of toil and travails ... in the midst of hopes, and hopes dashed. A testimony of our common humanity. Thank you!!!
This documentary makes my blood boil as a fellow Mongolian. Life could be much better for these drivers if only government cared a bit for these people.
Wow what a amazing documentary♥️ I’ve been watched almost thousands of Great documentaries this is the only one heartbreaking and Unforgettable feeling😢 Hopefully she’s getting better life soon🤞🏼
I like how she says they speed racing each other only to hurry up and wait..such terrible inefficiency with the offloading process glad to see they are still mining and using coal
I have the upmost admiration for this woman and a her fellow colleagues what they go through people in the west just wouldn’t tolerate it’s a hard life being a truck driver I know I was one full Kudo is to this woman
This video is a contrast between tough and tenderness. She is obviously a very tough woman to be doing this job, and knowing she’s among men, who I’m sure treat her as a forever inferior counterpart. But she’s tender because she’s a mom, and being apart from her babies for that long of a time must be heartbreaking. I hope she finds a gig that will let her spend more time with her kids. They need their mom. Much respect, ma’am.
Trucking coal from Mongolia to China is or will be outdated very soon as rail transport is only 1/4 the cost of trucking, using the newly opened Tavan Togoi railway.
My wife used to do railway testing she was away a lot for work driving to sometimes remote areas. I often thought of her and what she must be going through on a given day. Thankfully she doesn't do that anymore and she can be with our son.
You are a wonderful lady working for your family's future. Your family is lucky to have a caring and ambitious in it. And your skills are fantastic driving that huge truk you have achieved great heights. Well Don and congratulations to you and you will be with your family sooooooooon 🙏🌹
The Mongolian government is building three railways to China and soon will be completed mainly for coal and rear earth...I hope she could find a better job close to home !
Amazing lady…seems like her unique situation and all her contacts in the trucking corridor might lead to a business opportunity that will give her more time at home with family… best wishes…
True brave. Been seperated with family for couple years with unclear circumtance during outbreak, tough one is there. Hope Maikhuu and all drivers reach out everything they wishes
What you mean is it is barely known to westerners. It's been there for a long time and fully explored among the central Asian, the Chinese, the Russians and of course, the Mongolians themselves
@@k.k.c8670 Not explored in a geographical sense but in modern daily life. How many people outside of Mongolia know about the Terelj national park, Mongolian State Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet, Playtime music festival, Dunjingarav shopping mall, Narantuul outdoor market, Gandan monastery, Zaisan memorial and other things? All what people know about Mongolia is horseriding in the steppe and who Genghis Khan was but nothing about modern-day Mongolia and what people do every day, like this woman driving a truck.....
I have a great respect for this lady, who is trying her best to provide for her family and yet she is facing a future that is so uncertain that is not only dragging her down the road to uncertain poverty, and facing difficult decisions to decide not only her fate but the fate of her children. I know in other countries like hers its 10x to 100x far worse then here in the US.. as the poor are getting poorer and the rich getting richer. and with Covid 19, its putting the lives of people into harsh reality of a hard life.
Maybe that’s why I think to myself, if you barely have the means to survive, why burden yourself with children? You make your already hard life only harder. You also can’t provide an appropriate childcare and education to end this cycle of misery and poverty. This applies to all people in all countries on this planet.
This system survives on the human hope that tomorrow might be better, but it makes sure we breed more cheap labor and gun fodder. It doesn't have to be like this it wasn't like this.
Looks like a hard, dangerous job. Nothjng but respect for her, her partner and all of the others out there powering China. I'm not jealous, except maybe of that beautiful Beiben tractor.
Heartbreaking. We hear and read about the wealth being brought to Mongolia by its ressources boom, but we already know its distribution is lopsided, and there are lives like this - trapped, only trying to break free.
That coal trailer design has to be the stupidest and most dangerous setup I could imagine. I pulled a Frameless end dump trailer for ten years hauling Demolition materials, c and d, steel beams, asphalt, bricks, concrete. I would be dead with a trailer like the one she pulls .
no matter what the world thinks about china ,it certainly knows how to deal with a pandemic no matter how strict it is ,especially being the worlds largest population , and all that coal is for export
I mean, I could understand at the ending. But then again her feeling is more quitting rather than persevering and continuing. It's like she doesn't want to be there since the start. This is really why I think women are inept for these lines of work.
'.... in the US, the big profit maximising (coal mining and transportation) businesses would have built special and dedicated railway transportation system. In doing so there wouldnt be any needs for this number of truckers. Like it or not, the current system as show here do provide much need jobs for the local. Since there are plan for China to goes 'green' by 2050. Meaning the coal industries would not exist. Meaning by the current Mongolian truckers will work until they retired.

Beautifully done. Helped me to see a different side of Mongolia and her people. Grateful thanks.
Thank you so much! Sitting in our comfortable rooms, watching this made me think a lot!
What an amazing job documenting this. Congratulations to the cinematographers and reporters who put this together.
❤great mothers always wants to provide for her kids. My heart goes out to her.
My utmost respect to that lady, mother and bread winner, my heart goes out to you and hope that you will find your way to what you want in life.
Enjoyed the Mongolian narration. First time I've heard Mongolian language.
Great Doco!
Respect of our the Mongolian women. All of women's trying to do best
I loved this doc.....these people are unique humans!
That's what is a strong woman. Not a yelling creature in the west.
Beautiful filmmaking! Thanks!
Strong lady, hope she gets to spend more time with her friends and family.
That's the longest line of trucks I've ever seen.
Deeply touching ... Inspiring in the midst of toil and travails ... in the midst of hopes, and hopes dashed. A testimony of our common humanity. Thank you!!!
What a woman strength and Compassion. Best wishes for her and all she wishes for,
This documentary makes my blood boil as a fellow Mongolian. Life could be much better for these drivers if only government cared a bit for these people.
Great documenting of the working conditions people have within the coal logistics industry. 🙂
Wow what a amazing documentary♥️

Hopefully she’s getting better life soon🤞🏼

Many Asian countries are still mining and consuming coal.
I salute this brave mother !!

truly appreciate, Thank you for sharing this documentary , Please made more films about Mongolia, You can find a lot of unknown topics from Mongolia l
Trucking coal from Mongolia to China is or will be outdated very soon as rail transport is only 1/4 the cost of trucking, using the newly opened Tavan Togoi railway.
I working in the Govi-Altai country. We construct iron mining plants. Also the iron go to China. The most amazing project in my life.
How's the air quality out there?
@@eemoogee160 The air extra clean.
If not have dusty wind. And we middle of the anything. In the Tayan Nuur mountain.
All the best to Maikhuu, great documentary.
My wife used to do railway testing she was away a lot for work driving to sometimes remote areas. I often thought of her and what she must be going through on a given day. Thankfully she doesn't do that anymore and she can be with our son.
The lady should be inviting to canada to work here and better life for her and her kids.
You are a wonderful lady working for your family's future.
Your family is lucky to have a caring and ambitious in it.

so proud of you sister. ❤
It is such a tough life to make ends meet. We cannot choose how we born, but need to struggle to survive. I wish her and her family well.
True brave. Been seperated with family for couple years with unclear circumtance during outbreak, tough one is there. Hope Maikhuu and all drivers reach out everything they wishes
We need more Mongolian content! It's a barely explored country.

I know. Has a very interesting sound to it.
Great doc

Permeable, weighty, beautiful. Invading. A wonderful piece of moment, of timelessness, of being and meaning.

Thank YOU
The never ending struggle to provide something better for your kids is hard to watch sometimes. Life is hard and sometimes full of misery.
i do agree, but i also love the stories of men and women working in the heavy industrial profession as it help build character just as well

Wasn’t there a huge scandal over this recently?
Great vlog...I hope it all goes well 4 her
Beautiful cinematography!!
In Europe we are spoiled: no one could face such a hard life!
a hard life would be carrying the coal on your back and walking on your own feet.
@@lemonlimelukey : LOL! Try to make the same job as this brave woman
Spoiled? It's because Europeans fought for strong labour rights. It wasn't just given to us. Organised labour had to make it happen.
you have a point there @@JohnSmith-yt8di
Amazing woman 👏
such a beautiful and strong woman
Hats Off To These Hard Working Mongolian Women And Chinese Infrastructure Roads Also Powerful Yet Cheap Price Trucks. Love From India.
Thanks to The Guardian for covering this story. 👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏

Now there’s a real woman. Not afraid of work. Thanks for the video.
I'm a trucker of gasoline to gas stations in Calif.
Home every night.
But I got no family.
Kudos to you Madam driver. please protect yourself from the dust of coal. Use a mask
Great woman in Mongolia ❤️

How to get The Guardian to make a heroic biopic about you as a coal industry worker: Don't be western or a man.
Women is more careful than men when they drive

Beautiful lady, both work hard to eke a living with pairs of hand pair of legs for your three kids, simply wonderful
They should be wearing masks .
when dealing with coal and coal dust. I don't see anyone doing that except at COVID testing centers!!
