Hello, delegates! My name is Rhys Cheng, a junior at Taoyuan American School. I am honored to be your president for the Environment Committee. I have attended 9 conferences. This will be my 3rd HSINMUN conference that I have attended and it will also be my third time chairing a committee. I started joining MUN ever since middle school and I have been addicted to its complex and sophisticated style of debating. I personally think MUN has shaped me into being a more approachable and sociable person. Being in MUN has also taught me the importance of teamwork and how it’s needed in almost every aspect. Some advice I'd give to new delegates is to focus on being more confident and ignoring what others think of you. To the experienced delegates, keep up the good work!

I'm here to do my best in supporting and advising each and every one of you during the conference. As your president, I just want to encourage both new members and those who've been here before to set some goals for yourselves during the conference, like asking a question or suggesting a change. Personally, MUN has been where I made lots of awesome friendships with people who share similar views. I hope all you delegates out there, as you dive into your debate journey, see MUN as something fun as long as you take the time to understand the issues, join in the talks, and just be good listeners and talkers during the debates. On a more casual note, MUN is a cool place where you can enjoy interesting debates and meet cool people with different opinions that help enhance the whole discussion.

Other than MUN, I love to watch Tiktok. If I don’t reply to some people it’s either because I’m watching tiktok or i’m sleeping. With everything said, I hope to see you all in September!

Hello, delegates! My name is Daniel Chen, and I am currently a freshman at Kaohsiung American School. It is my utmost honor to serve as your Deputy President for Environment at this year's HSINMUN XX conference. I have been participating in MUN since the seventh grade, and HSINMUN XX will be the first conference I've chaired and the tenth I've attended.

MUN is not just about forming and expressing your own country’s stance on the issues; it's also about listening to and understanding the perspectives of others. Throughout the years of participating in MUN, I have become more aware of issues that are significant in our current world. To the delegates who are new to MUN, please don’t feel shy about speaking up during the conference. I was once that shy delegate who was afraid to speak, and I understand the pressure of standing on the podium. Therefore, I will make sure that I am as approachable and friendly as possible, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

Outside of MUN, you might find me sleeping or eating, as these are both things I am super talented at. With that said, let us delve into the world of MUN together, have meaningful and fun debates, develop feasible solutions to make our world better, and lastly, make friends and socialize with each other from schools all around Taiwan. See you guys in October!
