ONE MONTH TO GO29th February 2016 - THAIMUN Office
This email was sent to THAIMUN advisers today; We are just one month away from THAIMUN III on 2-4 April. Currently we have 27 schools and 265 delegates from nine countries. It will be an exciting conference and I am looking forward to welcoming you all... I have a few issues to address: 1. Delegate lists and Chair research papers: although we are waiting on delegate lists from four schools, I have passed on the current delegate lists to chairs. Chairs have written research papers to assist delegates in preparing for the conference. See the THAIMUN website: http://www.thaimun.org/home.html Chairs will contact their committee delegates. Please advise me if any of your delegates have not been contacted by the end of this week. 2. Protocols: an updated list of conference protocols is attached which cover dress, use of mobile phones, general behaviour and aspects of the procedures. Advisers please note, it is against MUN protocol for advisers to coach delegates on the floor of the committees or the general assembly. 3. Delegate Rules and Guidelines: THAIMUN III Delegate Rules and Guidelines are attached. Each delegate and their parents or guardians must sign this document and adhere to the guidelines therein. Advisers please collect the documents and hold them in case of an incident. 4. Visa Letter: a visa letter is attached in case any overseas delegates require a Thai visa. 5. Hotel list: I have heard from one school having difficulty booking a hotel. I have added to the list of hotels in the Bang Na area and the list is attached. I was recently contacted by Oakwood Garden Towers who are keen for delegates ton stay at their establishment. 6. Overseas schools (and PIA) transport, arrival, etc: only two overseas schools have advised me of their flight times, hotel and daily transport needs. The list is attached. If there are any gaps beside your school please advise me. I have to forward the list to CIS and they will then arrange the schedule and assess the costs. This should be completed as soon as possible. 7. Advisers/Chaperons: the list of advisers/chaperons from each school is attached. please advise me if there are any names to be added or changed. 8. Keynote speaker: we are very pleased to advise that our keynote speaker for the opening ceremony will be Mr. Feisal Hussain of UNCDF http://www.snap-undp.org/Lists/WhoIsWho/DispForm.aspx?ID=17 9. Extra Delegates: with two schools dropping out in the past week we have some vacancies and would welcome any offers to fill these crucial positions: Austria 1919/Hapsburgs 1701 in HCC Pakistan in DISEC and JCC Cuba in HRC2 and ECOSOC 1 Tunisia in HRC1 and ECOSOC 1 Australia judge in ICJ Australia in EC and HRC Thank you again for your support of THAIMUN III.
