Model UN

I am in Model UN. I have been part of it since my freshman year of high school (2008-2009). I love MUN.

However, I am not satisfied with the quality of resolutions that end up in the packet. This year I was representing Chilé in the economic committee. Our issue was Oil in Sudan. There were two resolutions that were just awful. Iraq and South Korea. These resolutions were completely vague and completely screwed Sudan.

Let's face it, Iraq only wants people to get oil from them, because they get a whole bunch of money from it. If Sudan were to have that same benefit, then Iraq would run back into its pre-2004 state, where they had no industry that people would want to buy from.

Meanwhile, South Korea just didn't say anything at all. They just wanted to have people get oil from countries not in crisis. I understand that we want to end the crisis in Sudan, however, if we want every nation to be successful, we need to have Sudan be successful.

Here's the problem: The workers on the oil fields are mostly non-indigenous people to Sudan. They have no interest in the affairs of the Sudanese people, which screwed the nation of Sudan.
