great news!

Hello! Hopefully everyone's not too tired from the HHS Student Exchange Programme. Anyway, I bring good news this time around. We're lucky enough to be given another 2 more countries for KLASSMUN this year. We got Lebanon and Phillippines to add to the list! Thanks a bunch, Amirah. :) 

I'll reupdate the list. Till then, take care. 

Sad News!

Hi guys! I bring you bad news this time around. Unfortunately, the KLMUN Conference, which was scheduled to be held from the 20th to the 22nd of February (THIS weekend) has been canceled. Canceled as in we've decided not to participate but its still going on. Terribly sorry. But at least we've still got KLASSMUN to attend!

Which brings me to this: We need to find another 3 more delegates for KLASSMUN if we were to use a bus. Also, if you're curious and would like to know more about the KLMUN incident, Shaun and I are always walking around the school, so afraid not to approach! We don't bite. :)

I'd also like to make an official announcement that we now have two Vice Presidents for SGMUN KS4. This is because there's tons of work to do and I wouldn't want to burden the already busy Hera. So, welcome Lin Vin! Mak Lyn will be taking over what was Lin Vin's post, which is the Assistant Conference Director and taking over the Treasurer role would be Melissa Tan, who was once the Publicity Director for last year's MUN Club!

That's it for now. Ciao. Also, enjoy what is tomorrow! The Japanese are coming!

So, whats MUN?

MUN. Model United Nations. Just like the United Nations itself, we consist of a few committees, such as the General Assembly, Human Rights Council, Security Council and Disarmament Commission, just to name a few. Students are being assigned countries to represent, and be an ambassador of. Basically, when you step into the committee room, you are no longer a Malaysian, or a student, but a delegate, ambassador of the country that you represent. 

You discuss about world issues and you brainstorm and think of ways to reduce, or combat the problem based on your research, while making sure that the country's citizens and country itself benefits from it. That's the whole point of it all, that's what MUN Conferences are all about - finding a solution to issues and problems. It's really just that simple. No training is needed for this, no practice is needed for this. Of course, you need to present it in a room filled with other delegates, as scared and new to MUN as you are, despite their smug and arrogant, I-know-it-all face, but what the heck!

I'll continue to hopefully talk about what the committees such as the General Assembly, Human Rights Council and whatnot are in a tad few. Till then, Ciao!
