Further research seems to indicate that the situation in Mongolia is even
more complicated.
See for instance a very short article plus reader comments on:
<http://ubpost.mongolnews.mn/index.php?subaction=showcomments&id=1111634894&
archive=&start_from=&ucat=1&>

The UB Post is Mongolias independent weekly news bulletin.

The article, dated 23 Mar 2005,  says:
"Mongolia will observe daylight savings time on March 26. Clocks will be
moved forward one hour at 2:00am"

A reader comment notes that parliament has decided that there are now 4 time
zones:

OLGII in the west, on UTC+7
ULAT, most of the country, on UTC+8
..., a couple of aimags in the east, on UTC+9
SUKH, the Sukhbaatar aimag, on UTC+8.5

The SUKH time zone is new.
