3rd day of rmun saved it all..

well, despite the boring first 2 days of rmun, the third day seriously made me consider going back for rmun next year.. initially i didn’t want to go, but i changed my mind cuz i didnt want to stay at home all day with nothing to do..

The conference itself was sitll quite boring, but still better this time cuz we had a few resolutions on the table already.. and we passed the 1st one which was on the crisis fairly quickly.. cuz we didnt want to waste anymore time.. so next we went on to debate on the resolution put forth at hand on my council’s own problem, the presence of soviet troops in afghanistan.. in the end we managed to make afghanistan’s resolution fail and passed UK’s one :) next we went on to debate on the other problem at hand.. the middle east conflict.. in the end, no resolution was passed for that problem cuz we ran out of time.. lol, but next we had some “fun” in the conference..

Juz when the chair was abt to end the conference, the USSR motioned to introduce a new resolution on a seperate issue. initially the chair rejected it, but after the USSR appealed again and many many seconds (as some ppl already knew what it was abt), the chair finally allowed the resolution to be read out while it was projected on the screen. I cant really remember what the exact words the resolution were , i wish i had asked that ussr guy to send it to me, cuz it was hilarious.. everyone was laughing despite the fact that the chair kept on reminding us to “maintain decorum”, cuz even the chair was laughing.. Below is roughly what the resolution was like:

The General Assembly

Issue: Neuclear Disarmament

Jointly affirmed by: USSR, Somalia (and some other countries i think)

Signaturies: (sry, i forgot)

Noting with deep concern the dangers that nuclear weapons could have on the world if used for violent means.

(a few other Preambulatory Clauses here, basically stating that the problem is that many countries have neuclear weapons and are dangerous, so we should get rid of them to prevent war.. thus we now move on to the Operative Clauses)

1. Calls for all nations who poses neuclear weapons to dispose off their neuclear waste on Somalian soil (rofl, in other words drop their neuclear waste on somalia, lol)

2. Emphasises the need for an above ground explosion as an underground explosion might throw the earth off it’s orbit, while an airbourne explosion might damage the ozone layer.

3. Notes that the resulted radiation from such a large explosion might help to find a cure for AIDS and cancer.

4. Takes note of the fact that the whole of Somalia will be wiped out with the passing of this reolution, however the people of Somalia are currently dying of hunger and diseases. Thus, in accordance to the UN’s aims, one of which is to end pain and suffering, the act of killing these people will help to end their pain and suffering, thus achieving the aims of the UN.

Trusts that all nations which possess nuclear weapons will turn over all of them to achieve world peace.

–END–

By this time, everyone was laughing like mad.. the chair also let us have some fun and treated the resolution as an actual one.. someone then motioned for the resolution to be debated on, and right after the required number of votes were achieved to start the debate, another country promptly motioned to end the debate and proceed to voting procedures. That motion was once again passed by a simple majority. Then they get use a roll call to get us to vote on the resolution.. Everyone voted for the resolution except a few who abstained. Even Somalia voted for the resolution to be passed, lol, cuz they jointly affirmed the resolution, which means that they HAVE to vote FOR the resolution. the chair even got the somalia delegate to come up and explain why he did so. He said something about it being “for the greater good” and that by doing so he would be sacrificing his country so that world peace could be attained.. lol. Then the chair even got those who abstained from the vote to explain why they did so.. Zimbabwe and one other country said that they were geographically close to Somalia, so they were afraid their countries might die too.. lol. But the best explanation came from spain: all their nuclear weapons had already been used on Uganda (i think).. lol so they had no more left to bomb somalia with..

After that everyone came in and the summit commenced.. all the directors juz summarized what happened in their council. nothing much. So after that everyone went for lunch.. After lunch was supposed to be the fashion parade, as i’ve already said it’s damn lame.. but i didnt need to do anything cuz none of my group members were present.. and UK told rjc that they had actually “planned” to do a joint performance with Nigeria, which is my groups, but since 4 of the 5 groups members are not present, we couldnt do what we originally “planned”. lol, so in the end we didnt need to do any skit. and instead we went out to play dota first, since there were 3 hours to go before the prize presentation started..

i totally owned the last match we played, the first 2 also not bad. but my best match came when i used faceless void for the first time ever and got BEYOND GODLIKE.. lol, was damn fun, i got top of course at the end.. :)
anyways we went back to rjc at 4.30 to attend the prize ceremony. In the end, Bryan got best delegate for our council, while ze yi got best delegate for his council. Then nicholas got honourable mention for his council too. too bad tze kai and andre didnt get anything.. maybe cuz tze kai destroyed peru while andre destroyed uganda. lol, but then andre already got an honourable last year, while tze kai still has next year.. oh well.

after that we sat at the LT and chatted for around an hour abt various things, including what happened in andre’s council, something which i’d rather not discuss here.. anywayz at around 7pm we went to another place in rjc for the dinner and dance. the food wasnt that good, but the band they hired were quite good. although tze kai looked like he wanted to commit suicide when they kept getting the lyrics wrong.. But it was damn fun, andre kept on getting jacked by us and we almost managed to get him above the crowd.. all in all was a really fun dinner and dance.. but the music was seriously too loud.. we couldnt even hear ourselves shouting to each other. seriously. But everyone had a good time. The band ended the night with “Vertigo”, and it seemed like they finally got the lyrics right, cuz tze kai was finally singing too :p.. everyone was sad when the band left after that, they had given us a good time man. anywayz after that there was juz some lame games the mc’s got us to play like who was the most sexy pole dancer and other lame games.. but still quite enjoyable, for those who were watching at least.. The whole thing finally ended at 9.30 and everyone said goodbye to each other.. we had a good time last night..

last night seriously saved the whole of rmun. i think i’ll come back next year. :)
P.S: Thomas, arianto, joshua, chong tee, i feel sorry for you guys, you juz missed out on a great night..

signing off…

    Any idea how typing ‘rmun’ into google search— the 2nd result would be your blog?

    Going to rmun this year, at least now I know rmun isn’t all that serious!

    Ended up with Iraq— Good and bad.

    Is a lot of research needed for rmun? Would they be helpful or would they not?
