GENERAL ASSEMBLY II:
ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL
Chair: Celine Shih (AST)
Co-Chair: William Kang (KCIS)
Greetings, delegates! My name is Celine Shih, a senior at American School in Taichung. It is my utmost honor to be serving as your head chair for GA2. HSINMUN XX marks my second time chairing this conference.
My MUN journey started back in 8th grade. The unfamiliarity with new procedures and the dynamic of the debate room left me baffled. Simultaneously, this never-before experience also brought me new insights on the world of MUN. Through attending more conferences and experiencing different perspectives and understanding my role as a global citizen, I gained self confidence, the courage to communicate well in front of others, and problem solving abilities. For me, MUN keeps me informed on current issues the world faces and provides a solution-seeking opportunity on these pressing matters.
On an unserious note, MUN could be a place to enjoy captivating debates and finding strong-minded delegates with clear stances that brings life and much controversy to the entire debate. For me, MUN has also been a place where I formed many friendships with amazing and like-minded people. I hope as you delegates embark on your journey of debate, each of you would be able to perceive MUN as something enjoyable as long as you take the time to understand the issues, contribute to discussions, and be active listeners and communicators during debates. As your head chair, I encourage new and returning delegates to set a goal for yourself during the conference, whether it’s asking a POI or submitting an amendment. I also understand the anxiety the upcoming debates would bring, but I will always try my best to support and advise all of you during the conference.
Aside from MUN, I enjoy reading, writing, curating Spotify playlists, and singing my heart out to Taylor Swift songs. With that being said, I look forward to meeting all of you in October and feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
Hello delegates! My name is William Kang, and it is my utmost pleasure to be serving as your General Assembly 2 Co-Chair for HSINMUN XX. I am a rising senior from Kang Chiao International School Linkou Campus (KCISLK). This is my eighth conference and my first time chairing, and I will be specializing on issue 201, addressing the rise in use of digital currency. Ever since I started my MUN journey in my freshman year, I began to enjoy the intense thinking and debate process. Most importantly, I learned how to negotiate with different people in regards to different perspectives in order to reach a balanced solution between different ideas and thinking. MUN conferences have not only been unforgettable experiences, but they made me think from a more diverse perspective, changing my thinking and evaluating events in my surrounding environment. Because of MUN experiences, I learned how to connect the events happening around me with a larger context of globalization, so I understand how all small actions can possibly make a difference in the society. While I think that MUN is an extraordinary chance for seeking out global solutions in modern society, I would also like to urge delegates to constantly consider the connections between all problems and solutions discussed in the conference with the people and events surrounding our life and what actions can we take either now or in the future to make changes. As the Co-Chair, I will always do my best to assist all delegates during and prior to the conference, so don’t feel too pressured! Aside from MUN, I also enjoy rock climbing, watching anime, and traveling during my spare time. Let’s enjoy our time together at HSINMUN XX, I can’t wait to see you all in October!
