Nick Sen Chua

Secretary General

Hello everyone, welcome to the MYMUN XIX Conference. My name is Nick Sen Chua, and I am honored to be your Secretary-General for the year. My goal for the conference is to help everyone involved learn meaningful Model United Nations skills, such as debating, as well as personal interest and entertainment. MUN helps us express our emotions and opinions while sticking to the relevance of each nation, helping us grow and understand a wide range of perspectives and taking on viewpoints that we may not necessarily agree with personally.

I particularly look forward to the soft skills developed in MUN, such as improvements in public speaking, the compromises that some delegates may have to make to reach a greater solution, and a wider range of critical thinking and passion that goes into conferences. Overall, I hope for quality but respectful debate throughout the conference, with many amendments, speeches, and POIs being made. Let’s work together and collaborate for a brighter future in MYMUN XIX. See you all there!

Maellys Lepine

Secretary General

Welcome to the MYMUN XIX conference! My name is Maellys Lepine, and I am honored to be your Secretary-General this year. My goal for this conference is for students to not only understand the objectives of Model United Nations but also to discover a genuine interest in debating important global issues. I discovered my own passion for MUN at my last conference, and I hope you’ll leave this one feeling the same way. I began MUN in Grade 10, and each conference since has provided me with invaluable insights on topics often missing from traditional classrooms, such as the Sustainable Development Goals and current global conflicts. MUN empowers us to voice ideas that can lead to real change and to propose solutions for some of the world’s most pressing problems. I am thrilled to meet all of you in person and look forward to a conference filled with meaningful debate and the formation of lasting friendships. Let’s work together to make this MYMUN conference truly memorable!

Ruey Whuan See

Deputy Secretary General

Hi everyone, welcome to the 19th iteration of MYMUN! My name is Ruey Whuan (Emily) See and I am delighted to be your Deputy Secretary General for this conference. Model United Nations has been a key part of my high school life as I enjoy engaging in fruitful debates and solution-devising revolving around real world issues. I see great value in opportunities where the youth are encouraged to engage themselves in contributing towards solving, or at least finding ways to alleviate, the systemic issues that still plague our world today.

Throughout the conference, I hope that you will take this opportunity to showcase your consideration and critical thinking towards acknowledging the people affected by these real world issues, viewing them through a lens of empathy. I also hope that you will be able to productively collaborate with your fellow delegates to achieve a middle ground when devising feasible solutions. Afterall, collaboration makes the foreseeable future brighter.

Phoebe Hegler

Deputy Secretary General

Hello everyone, and welcome to the MYMUN XIX Conference! My name is Phoebe Hegeler, and I am honored to serve as your Deputy Secretary-General this year. For me, the most rewarding part of Model United Nations has always been the opportunity to share diverse perspectives, connect with incredible people, and work together to find solutions to real-world challenges. MUN isn’t just an academic exercise - it’s a chance to engage with global issues in a meaningful way, to understand viewpoints different from our own, and to grow as leaders and problem-solvers. Each conference brings its own unique energy, and I’m thrilled to see what each of you will bring to the table over the coming days. As we dive into debates and discussions, let’s remember that MUN is a space for learning, collaboration, and creativity. I look forward to meeting all of you, hearing your ideas, and making this MYMUN experience memorable for everyone. Let’s make the most of this journey together!
