Journal: 4/20 MUN
What I learned from having MUN here was that there are a lot of delegates who are very good at debating however there are also delegates who were very quiet and hardly talked at all. I also learned all the procedures of this Model United Nations: lobbying, merge resolutions, debate, ammend, and then vote, including all the formal words used during the debate. I also learned that many people merge together because the nation they represent are allies, instead of similar position on the issue. So it took some of the delegates some time to convince others that we are debating on the issue, not the main problem of the issue. For example, people didn't really want to be with the delegate of DPRK because of the missile launch, delegates of the European countries didn't want to be with Israel bacause of the Jews, and the delegate of US didn't want to be with the delgate of Iran because of 9/11. There were this kind of problems at first,since I was the delegate of Israel, but eventually things work out. It was really interesting!
