Invitation to "Take Action on UN Day"

Dear TCSHMUN people,

Here is a forwarded message of the invitation to the "Take Action on UN Day" which was received via our Co-Conference Director Yau Jia Min. Please read through. We encourage you to attend as it would be very good for your CV.

The event is tomorrow, Saturday, 24th of October 2009.

>> Forward from the organizer "Shenn"

I am Shenn, currently a UN Club member of HELP.I am also one of the organizer of 350 Action Day under an environmental organisation, Malaysian Youth Climate Justice Network(MYCJN).I am sending this email to invite TCSHMUN to take action on 24th Oct, the International Day of Climate Action which is also known as UN Day. As we all know climate change is deadly serious now. Predicted water shortages, rising sea levels, crop failures and dangerous weather events threaten the lives of billions within decades unless action is taken immediately.UN climate change conference is going to be held in Copenhagen,Denmark this December. But the problem is, the treaty currently on the table doesn't meet the severity of the climate crisis—it doesn't pass the 350 test.

350.org is an international campaign dedicated to build a movement to unite the world around solutions to the climate crisis--the solutions that science and justice demand.The focus is on the number 350--as in parts per million, the level scientists have identified as the safe upper limit for CO2 in our atmosphere. But 350 is more than a number--it's a symbol of where we need to head as a planet.

For more information, please visit: http://www.350.org/

October 24 is the International Day of Climate Action, where people from all around the world are doing something to raise awareness about the 350 campaign. The 350 campaign is an awareness campaign at all levels to reduce carbon levels to 350 parts per million (ppm), which scientists say is the safe limit for humanity. Currently the amount in the global atmosphere is about 385.92ppm, which is already significantly above the acceptable threshold.

In support of the 350 campaign, the Malaysian Youth Climate Justice Network (MYCJN) are seeking youth volunteers to perform a flash mob. We hope to see as much as young performers to perform a short song and dance routine so here’s your chance to realize your Bollywood fantasies along with other people! While having some fun, here’s your chance to meet other environmentally conscious youths like you, and more importantly, here’s our chance to make an impact as youths to spread the message to the Malaysian public. Believe us, a huge song and dance routine at City Centre WILL get notice, and you will be able to make some different to climate change!

Here’s the details of 350 Dance for the Planet:

Date: 24^th Oct 2009

Venue: KLCC Park & Bukit Bintang Junction

Activity: Here’s our dance mob teaser for 24^th Oct:

A chairperson would be available to facilitate the debate. Executive Committee members would also be available to overlook and/or participate in the resolution debate practice.

The weekly Model United Nations resolution debate would allow the members to enhance their speaking skills and their exposure towards world issues. It is part of the scheme of TCSHMUN Internal 1 Conference which was held on the 4th of April 2009 to give MUN members a better understanding and preparation towards MUN conferences.

TCSH Internal Conference I

The 4th of April saw TAYMUN Sri Hartamas organize their inaugural conference, chaired by Isabell Zubinsha and Audrey Ser. While others would have slept their Saturday morning away, 27 delegates were quick, keen and exuberant on getting a taste of what the Model United Nations had to offer.

The General Assembly rolled into session as the Chairs begun role-calling, to identify member states present. Donned in formal wear, the delegates took to the podium to deliver their opening speeches with much poise and eloquence.What followed suit was a two and a half hour lobbying session, where delegates formed blocs with their allies to co-submit a resolution together. There were much heated up discussions in the hall as delegates brainstormed for the most appropriate solutions, before submitting their resolutions to the Approval Panel.

After lunch only did the debate commence, on the topics of Kyoto Protocol and the Gaza-Israel conflict. Despite very persuasive arguments, with example of Malaysia saying, ‘‘The resolution is like a fortune cookie, but with no fortune. It gives you so much at the beginning, but in the end you get nothing’’, 2 out of 3 resolutions were successfully passed at the end of the day.

Formalities aside, there was much laughter throughout the conference, as time and time again the Chairs had to call for the house to come to order. Irrelevant notes between the UAE and India, regarding the flawed alignment of papers, stirred up much laughter in the house. Yet another one was to Singapore, from Syria. It read: ‘‘Stupid!! Your writing looks like indo mee!’’.

To close it all off, an award ceremony took place, with the delegates of Russia and Malaysia snagging the Most Diplomatic and Most Passionate award respectively. Mr Rahul Ramachandran, Secretary General for the day, expressed in his speech how pleased he was that the mock conference had the participation of students from all intakes. You can bet he was even more pleased thereafter, as he was voted as ‘‘Sexiest’’ in the General Assembly.

Really, one has to experience it before being able to embrace the likes of Model UN – because it goes way beyond formalities and what this article can portray in a limitation of words.
