Abstarct– With the further expansion of economic globalization, more and more joint ventures and foreign-funded companies have been established and have made significant contributions to the world market economy. All fields increasingly demand inter-disciplinary talents who are skillful in their major as well as foreign language. Society tends to demand for one’s foreign language ability to contain level of diversity and specialization. For instance, those who major in trade can fluently use English to participate in business negotiations, those who major in news can use English to interview, those who are layers can use English to engage in various cases, and those who are engineers can use English to communicate with foreign technicians. Therefore, it is hard for those who have merely a general ability to be best suited for market demands. Mongolia’s foreign relations are rapidly developing, investments in the business and mining sector are increasing, and the need for ESP with high English skills to manage those activities is increasing dramatically. In line with this, we aim to contribute to the development of ESP by studying the ESP policy and the characteristics of ESP training in Asian countries with similar cultures to our own country.

Keywords– English language policy and ESP, ESP in Asian countries, ESP at public universities in Mongolia
