Update on Singapore

This is Rachel reporting from the amazing country of Singapore. I know it is hot and has stormed everyday but I love it! The students are doing well, but of course I wish they would speak out more. I wanted to post some pictures to show what we have been up to on CDIS's first international MUN conference!

Getting on the very cheap Air Asia flight! It was about $180 roundtrip! They don't give out any free food or drinks, but there is a chat feature onboard so we could chat with each other on the plane (our seats were spread out)


The group after a LONG day of lobbying Wednesday. They were really hungry, hot, and tired! We went to Orchard that night and took in the Christmas decorations. We spent a considerable amount of time in Borders :-)






Our ambassador of the United Republic of Tanzania, relived after delivering his opening speech to hundreds of other delegates!


One amazing student who got to be second speaker for her resolution. She did a great job on this speech!!!!





Voting in the General Assembly 5 on issues of reforming the Security Council, this resolution failed.


Tonight is the dinner and dance!!! Woohoo!
Ok time for me to go the Commission on Sustainable Development!
