SIGHTSEEINGOn the first official day of BIMUN, the

delegates travelled to the Castle district, where four sights, and twelve tasks were already waiting for them.

One of these stations was the Matthias Church, where they had to find horse statues and take selfies with them, then post them with the hashtag #horsepose. Needles to say, some exquisite pictures were born. Their second task was to ask for a „pogácsa” from Ruszwurm Confectionary.

Another station was the Fisherman’s Bastion. There the delegates had to find the oldest building of Budapest, which is Vörös Sün Ház (Red Hedgehog House), based on pictures and find out for what things was it used for during its long history. They also had to learn the Hungarian anthem. A german delegate said ”When you hear the whole italian delegation singing the Hungarian anthem... that is an unforgettable experience.”

They had to post another picture, but for this one they had to pose like the freedom statue.

At the Sándor Palace, the third station, their task was to catch a change of guard on camera in front of the President’s residence, and to guess from clues the year when the palace was built. And the third task here was also to say "sárga bögre, görbe bögre”.

The last location they had to visit, was the National Gallery. There the delegates had to find out who Prince Eugene of Savoy was and why he has a statue in front of the palace and find the fountain on the picture and try to recreate the scene for a photo. Lastly, they had to name the bridges over the Danube and number them from North to South.

We then had the chance to speak with the delegates, and ask some questions. Here are a few things they said;

"Buda is way nicer than Pest!”

”The place that I really want to visit is the ferris wheel at Deák tér”

”Is Padthai a Hungarian food? We had it last night and it was great.”

„Goulash is like really greasy right?”

”We saw pictures of a public bath that was out in nature, somewhere in Hungary, are we going to go there?”

”The castle of Buda is the best castle in the world!”

”Eötvös high school is really clean and old.”

”The best thing about Hungary is Starbucks.”

”I can’t wait to see Budapest at night.”

”Honestly, I’m only here for the parties.”

”There’s no way that I’m going to try Hungarian food.”

We then told them to try other Hungarian foods, like kürtőskalács, isler, balton, linzer. And also about some lovely sights, shops they must visit.

All in all, after a long day the sightseeing was a really peaceful, fun and enjoyable experience for everyone. There’s even a drone video of it. Written by Bokor Míra

Maybe one of the oldest sayings in Hungary since globalization has started is that Hungarian girls are the most beautiful in the world. During the sightseeing I tried to find out how the male representatives of the different nations feel about this statement. At first, I had to realize that I should add why I am asking all the guys this question, because some of them thought I am trying to use one of the worst pick up lines of BIMUN. Then, I tried to make some statistics about the reactions of 15 boys. The results: 5 of them blushed (I could have made a pretty colour scale from their complexion), 4 of them totally agreed with it, 2 of them couldn’t believe me and thought I was trying to flirt, 1 was a bit hesitant and 3 said, that based on what they have seen already, they would say, that the saying is true. All in all, according to this outcome we are still entitled to be proud of the beauty of Hungarian girls.

Budapest is considered one of the most beautiful European cities. It is best known for its thermal baths, which are very healthy, pleasurable, and certainly one of the best ways to relax during your holiday. Still, even though the baths have been around since the Roman times, Budapest has much more to offer than that.

The Széchenyi thermal bathOnce, Buda, Pest and

Óbuda were three different cities right next to each other, and only after 1873 did they become one city, Budapest. The difference however, is still visible. Buda has always been the home of the elite, with the hills, the Castle District, villas, parks and gardens, and it retained its enchanting historical atmosphere. It is a focal point for culture and tourism, with many elegant restaurants and cafes. Most of the private schools and private clinics are in Buda, and everything is generally a little more expensive on that side of the Danube. Pest, on the other hand, became the administrative, political, business and cultural center, densely packed with shops, galleries, bars, ruin pubs, and eclectic old buildings.

A map of Budapest in the 1870sMost of the remarkable architecture

you can see here today was built before the First World War, around the turn of the century. These include St. Stephen’s Basilica, the Opera, a lot of theaters and museums, Andrassy Street, Gresham Palace and many more. Outside the city centre however, both Buda and Pest have large housing estates, which have been — at least in some form — giving home to about third of the city’s population ever since they were built in the ’60s and ‘70s.

Revolution: a fundamental change in political power and organization, which occurs relatively quickly when the population revolts against their oppressors.

Whenever this word comes up, people think of fierce Frenchman screaming “Vive la France” in the midst of a bloody battle for freedom or maybe of Russian revolutionaries storming into the Tsar’s palace in a vodka-infused frenzy with Lenin’s voice echoing in the distance, but there were many more nations in history with a fondness for unrest. Among them, Hungarians stood out with at least three revolts or revolutions in each century.

Throughout history, Hungary got its fair share of occupation and oppression starting from the disastrous battle of Mohács in 1526, so the populace developed a taste for uprising long before the Age of Revolutions. The almost ridiculously stubborn, ever-revolting and insatiable nobles and the brave revolutionaries of Hungary gave much headache to the Turkish (Ottoman) and Austrian (Habsburg) occupants in a long series of insurgencies, but never managed to gain independence or conduct a successful revolution.

In 1541, the Ottomans occupied the capital of Hungary (Buda). By that, the country split into 3 parts.

With the formation of the dual monarchy of Austria-Hungary in 1867 came a brief period of peace, but the two world wars set the stage for more revolutions. In respect of the nation’s courageous attempts at gaining freedom in the past, Hungary’s two most famous failed revolutions (in 1848 and 1956) are celebrated as national holidays.

The Hungarian Revolution and Independence War of 1848 was part of the continent-wide Spring of Nations. It broke out on the 15th of March in the Pilvax coffee palace in Budapest, where the young radical liberal intellectuals gathered, like Sándor Petőfi, Hungary’s most well-known poet. Inspired by the French, they initiated a mass demonstration in the Hungarian capital that led to the formation of the country’s first parliamentary government. Armed conflicts soon followed

A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE REVOLUTIONS

and the revolution slowly turned into an independence war, during which the Austrian state came close to collapse after a series of defeats from the Hungarian revolutionary army and its general, Artúr Görgey. Quite sadly the revolution ended with the young emperor Franz Joseph asking the Russian Empire for help and suppressing it with a Russian intervention army of 200.000 men.

The Hungarian Revolution of 1956 was a national revolt against the communist government of the Hungarian People’s Republic and its Soviet policies. It lasted 16 days and it was an important event in the Cold War as the first threat to Soviet control in Europe since World War II. Reminiscent of 1848, it began as a student demonstration in Budapest, but as the State Security Police fired upon the demonstrators, the revolution started. Thousands organized into militias and the government soon collapsed. After announcing willingness to negotiate the withdrawal of its forces, the Soviet Union changed its mind and once again in history, the Russian troops crushed the revolution.In 1956, a Hungarian freedom fighter became The Man of the Year by Time Magazine.

Have you heard about what’s happening in Cape Town? Do you know how much water you use on a daily basis? Do you count how many times you flush the toilet or how many times you wash your hands?

Water is the most important thing in a human’s life. We need it to stay alive, we use it for cooking, irrigation, cleaning, etc. Nowadays 844 million people live without access to safe water, and 2,3 billion people live without access to proper sanitation. In developing countries collecting water is usually the women’s responsibility, and it takes their time away from school and work, thus keeping them in poverty. The lack of clean water also makes it easy for severe diseases to spread, 1 million people die because of water related issues every year. The fight for clean water might even get so serious, that it leads to civil war.

During BIMUN 2018 the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) will be discussing this important problem, while trying to find some possible solutions for it.

So far all of the nations agreed, that this is a global problem, and can only be solved with the joint power of several nations. A collaboration with WHO might be needed too, as not having access to clean water causes serious health related issues.

Some of the suggestions were improving the water sanitizing technologies (of course this could mostly work in well developed countries), and setting up regulations and guidelines.

The food production system is also a huge part of the problem, as roughly one third of the produced in the world for human consumption is wasted. Producing food-especially red meat-takes a lot of water. Improving the food production system, changing some of the rules that cause food loss or somehow cutting down the amount of food that’s being produced could reduce the problem.

Above of their own nation’s interests the People’s Republic of China, the Russian Federation and the United States of America are all trying to work together, with the other countries following them. If you’re thirsty for more information about the water crisis, you’ll have to wait until tomorrow, when the sessions will continue.

Since the ECOSOC is the biggest committee in the whole conference with 37 delegates, it has both talented first-timers and ambitious veterans. During the sessions, they were discussing the economic and social effects of technological innovation. After just two hours of speeches, a punishment took place. India and Pakistan forwarded their position papers too late, therefore they got the chance to perform a dance duo, however, I believe Pakistan’s delegate was delighted to make a show in front of the committee. Also, in his opening speech the delegate of Pakistan claimed that technological development is essential yet he had an issue with finding his speech on his phone.

Despite the fact that the lobbying time was cut in half by the lunch break, the delegates succeeded in forming associations within 2 hours. According to some of them, the committee and sessions were genuinely unusual, and they also pointed out that the delegate of China enjoys to take over the floor.

While they were waiting for the resolution to be printed, Donald Trump took over the floor. The delegates were mostly asking him questions about his love affair with Vladimir Putin nonetheless the president claimed that there is no such thing as a romantic relationship with the Russian president. After Mr. Trump left the room the delegates agreed that the two leaders are secretly forming couple. The delegate of Egypt even believes that WW3 will surely break out if this mysterious relationship ends.

We hope that tomorrow they can finally manage to start the debate on the submitted resolution and stay as productive as they were today.

As humanity changes and develops, weapons do too. Due to the technological improvements - like the invention of chemical, biological and nuclear arms – a war can cause way more casualties than it has ever done before. This is why it’s necessary to discuss the dangers of weapon production and find a solution to the armament race, and the Disarmament and International Security Committee aims to make a progress on this field.

The discussion begun with the countries’ opening speeches at 9.00 am, in room 202. Although the dispute started slowly, the individual speeches outlined the major conflicts and the committee formed two separate parties. One of the most controversial issues was the Syrian situation, which led to a heated quarrel. Many countries stated that they would approve a complete or partial nuclear disarmament, but they were accused of taking part in this week’s missile strike in Syria. The Presidency needed to ask the delegate of South Africa to apologize to Israel, who felt accused of holding the international cooperation back. Also, the Presidency dealt with other concerns efficiently, from supplying the delegate of Amnesty International with tissues when he spilt water on himself, to asking the delegate of Pakistan to stop surfing on Facebook.

During the lobbying time, it became clear that two parties have been formed. The P5 countries (USA, UK, Russia, France, China) wished a partial nuclear disarmament, and expressed the need of some weapons to keep their reputation. However, the opposite side (including nations without nuclear armament) claimed a nuclear weapon free world.

After the lunch break the pace of the debate took a step back. Even though the interviewed delegates were satisfied with the atmosphere and tempo of the conference, the outsiders might have found the almost 3 hour long lobby time a bit boring. Three resolutions seemed to be shaping: USA’s with 9, Germany’s with 11 and Turkey’s with 1 co-submitters. At 16.30 pm the Presidency decided to end the debate, as the Approval Panel would only finish the examination of the resolutions by Sunday. The punishments were dismissed and the delegates left the room in urge to discover the city.

In Saturday’s debate in the International Atomic Energy Agency com-mittee took place in the room of the falling chairs and plastic bottles. The delegates presented their plans and thoughts about the future of nuclear energy. In the meantime, talking about the dismantling and the management of nuclear waste, past accidents at power plants and nuclear reprocessing.

In their opening statements, the delegates stressed the importan-ce of safety, the hazards of the mission, and the dangers of nuclear warheads. During the discussion, the vast majority of the delegates agreed that there is a need for higher safety standards, need for a change in the policy to avoid further disasters. Also, the importance of research and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Others like Ukrai-ne, India and - surprisingly - the United States remained silent during the whole committee.

Waiting for the reso-lution to be accepted by the Approval Panel, the delegates star-ted debating about memes. While Iran and Germany were the most active, fighting against the devil’s act, South Africa, the UK and the Russian Fe-deration defended the

memes, as it unites people and the photos have a much deeper me-aning. South Africa has had some great put-downs during the debate such as reflecting on the statement of Saudi Arabia “we have the best memes” with the following sentence: “Are the best memes made in Saudi Arabia, or is the whole country is the meme?”. Japan did not need South Africa’s help to be put-down, as he did it himself: “We don’t need memes, we have anime” as the delegate said.

At last, the resolution that was proposed by the People’s Republic of China was approved, and the delegates started debating. The main points of the resolution were to take steps towards the environmen-tally friendly and safe storage of radioactive waste and the establish-ment of safer facilities.

Although culture and religion define who we are and instill important values in us, and thus the rights of these things should be protected, there are exceptions if it’s abusing individual human rights, like gender equality. Thereupon we must strike the balance between cultural and religious groups’ rights and women’s rights. This could be the sum of the opening speeches, all of them were well prepared and adequate.

During the lobbying session, two resolutions have collected identical number of signatures, one of them was submitted by the People’s Republic of China and co-submitted by the Netherlands, Japan, Turkey, the Russian Federation, the Syrian Arab Republic and Brazil, while the other was submitted by Germany. First, PRC’s delegate had the right to speak up and protect her resolution, At the end of the day the clause by clause debate has begun, and the first clause was discussed.

On more important things though: during the day a teddy was named ’King Hobbs, first of his name, Lord over the HRC and breaker of chains’, after formal consultations. Other possible ideas for names included Simba, Oscar, Mufasa and Justice.

The discussion of the global situation in piracy did not exactly start off smoothly. Despite having been informed to write an opening speech, the delegate of Ethiopia did not prepare anything, which the chairs were not happy about. Also, the delegate of the US spiced his speech up with Trump jokes – highly appreciated by the delegates, not so much by the presidency. It really is hard to impress Mr. Kristóf Vincze, especially when you do not even have a tie, although the delegate of Kuwait gave a very smart explanation for that – the tie would suffocate him.

The importance of the topic; The global situation in piracy, as described in the agenda is: “Rooted in economic, social and historical causes, it provides a challenge to the global economy, especially due to it being present on several continents and being perpetrated by non-state actors. The four key elements when addressing piracy, therefore, are the widespread nature of forces enabling piracy, its threat to the global economy, its global appeal and the relatively low traceability of pirates.”

Despite it being a great committee with a lot of talented delegates, the pace of the debate was a little slow. Before lunch there was a lot of unmoderated caucus, after which only two operated clauses got voted on. The delegate of France was even scolded for yawning with an open mouth.

The one ‘huge problem’ in Security Council is that the delegates do not seem to remember that they cannot use the pronouns ‘I’ and ‘You’. It even had to be written on the board, and now when someone uses them, Mr. Vincze starts smashing the board with his hammer.

After the lunch break three operative clauses passed and three failed, and the committee still has 25 operative clauses to debate on.

In our lives telecommunicaton plays a crucial part. Life without our mobile phones, tablets, laptops, seems quite unimaginable. The internet is used for communication, education, healthcare, research. But what we may forget, is the fact that it’s accessible for everyone, and not everyone uses it for good causes: terrorists communicate between each other using modern technology too, using it’s benefits, for it is untraceable. There’s been no universal solution until now.

On the first day of BIMUN the International Telecommunication Union has debated two problems : the communication of terrorist cells,and the other is the issue of enchanting global cyber security.

Today the committee started to discuss the problem of the terrorism at the internet, but because only one resolution was born they started to discuss other serious questions like: Is the Earth flat? or Should zoos be banned? Many delegations expressed their opinions, for example USA or Syria who agreed that the Earth is flat, but the strangest opinion was Kuwait’s because in their opinion Earth is a cube…interesting thoughts.

China made a resolution that the HRC should have more rights to reform the regulation laws. Their target would be governmental security experts and the leadership of big telecommunication corporations possessing huge databases of personal information of individuals, which should be protected from cyber-attacks. It would be a useful defence against the criminals, and ,,the ITU should also put this topic to its agenda”-said the delegation of China. This opposition started a small debate between Pakistan and China. They decided to organise a follow-up for the 2012 WCIT Conference. The conference’s purpose would be to amend the Final Acts of the 2012 WCIT Conference, in order to achieve higher level of international consensus.

The highlight of the day was when Mr. Donald Trump honored us with his presence. He said a life changing thought : terrorists are bad.

Last but not least an expert John talked about the issue of terrorism.

On the first day the committee discussed the issue of water management. This activity includes planning,developing and managing the optimum use of water resources. 72 percent of Earth is covered by water, but most of it is found in oceans (which is salt water and not suitable for our uses), frozen in the polar ice caps, or too difficult to reach for practical use by cities or communities. We humans are only able to use 0,08 percent of it. This is the amount of water that we use for domestic purposes, agriculture, generating electricity, transportation, and it’s necessary for the industry too. Water is essential for life. Sadly, due to population and industrial growth, we need more and more, that’s why water management is a crucial activity.

New relationship! The delegate of Istambul proposed to the delegate of the Republic of Korea. Good luck, and we hope that their happiness will last long.

After a very long lobbying time, they started to discuss about the solution of global warming.The delegates argued about a very intresting topic:

Blue planet with sunglasses! Earth with sunglasses? Quite cool, or totally idiotic? Can we make giant sunglasses, which can protect those places, where the UV-ray damaging is? There were some very different viewpoints.The delegate of Pakistan disagreed, because he thinks this could ruin the balance of the ecosystem, but in China’s opinion it is a very cool idea, and maybe the rich states could finance the project.After an intimate conversation, they couldn’t find the final solution.

Drugs are destructive. They destroy people, they destroy families and all that just for the money, as the delegate of the Russian Federation said. The UNODC committee with nineteen delegates and with the best view of the school to the Károlyi garden has already started their discussion in ‘Tackling international narcotics trade’ subject.

The opening speeches were well prepared, however some of the delegates’ facial expression reflected the early morning and the long way to the school. Most of the delegates used laptop to help them with the speech, the second most popular were mobile phones and the third tablets.

During the opening speeches there were held two Q&A sessions. Important topics among others included the difference between the danger of alcohol and marijuana, and we must mention that wine is not a drug, especially not in France.

Towards the end of the speeches the Secretary-General, the Deputy Secretary-General and the President of the General Assembly visited our committee. Before the lobbying session the committee had a difficulty with windows and doors, but at least we could hear playful Hungarian music for few minutes. After two lobbies and a lunch break the committee were refreshed and could not wait to discuss as important issue as the comparison of still and sparkling water. The delegation of South Africa came toward this vital question and after holding a professional speech the other delegates were keen on expressing their opinions. There was a fierce conflict between the Russian Federation and the UK. Unbelievable arguments and persuasive responses, not to mention the proofs of British scientists and the Russian translation of water, which is of course vodka. Even though the seventy percent of the human body is sparkling water the still water faction won the sudatory debate.

In the end of the day the committee discussed the resolution, which was written by the delegate of People’s Republic of China. This was co-submitted by eleven countries and six were signatories. Original nine points of the resolution and two more new topics were discussed. We can genuinely say that the first conference day was long, but effective.

Following some technical difficulties and a quick debrief by chair Mr. Bárány, day 1 of CSC in room 200 was kickstarted by the blaring sound of BIMUN news announcing the long-awaited crisis: a superhurricane named Ivan has hit the United States sweeping through the Carribbean and crippling Puerto Rico and Haiti in the proccess. The ensuing lobby time lead to new friendships, alliances and fist bumps in some places.

As they stated later, the delegates weren’t expecting a crisis of this nature in the Security Council so initially they had a hard time cooperating. The general debate saw expressions of condolences, promises of support and quarrels between the countries as the aid and reconstruction of the affected countries was discussed. China and its delegation came to be in the limelight receiving criticism and covert insults over their operative clauses. The delegate of the UK parallelled China’s generous offers with the recent economical expansion of „some asian countries” in Africa accidently confusing these countries with China for which he had to apologize.

In the wake of the lunch break, debate continued and the Chinese situation escalated. Other delegates continued to suspect ulterior motives behind their pledge to provide free capital. The conflict culminated in a series of tense hassles during which the Chinese delegates were bombarded with cross-questions but cleverly defended their proposals. Their sole allies in the committee seemed to be the delegates of Venezuela whose table was decorated by a golden-framed picture of Nicolás Maduro, admired leader of their country.

By the end of the session the delegations set aside their differences, made peace with China and began the development of an extensive rescue plan with ships and aircraft. The committee passed 5 operative clauses and numerous amendments. No punishments were carried out yet but all is not lost that is delayed.

ECOFIN is the committee where a delegate said ‘It is the Economic and Financial Committee not the Ecologic and Financial Committee.’ Where the staff members tried to vote with a piece of paper with ‘Staff’ written on it and where another delegate said ‘the members of the committee are stupid’, fortunately during the Fun debate when they discussed the shape of the Earth.

In case of a natural disaster, a hurricane, a tsunami or an earthquake, which everyone hears about and tries to ensure the safety of all those affected. But what is happening after that, when the majority of the people forget the catastrophe? Usually nothing happens or there is not enough help and the ruined area remains ruined. The task of the ECOFIN is to develop a financial action plan to facilitate rebuilding the ruined area and getting life back to normal.

At first, the delegates in the committee made the opening speeches about the main issue. A few of them said that the global warming plays an important part in the evolving of the natural disasters. The delegate of Japan said ‘All natural diseases are because of global warming’, but the delegation of the USA did not believe in global warming.

After the opening speeches and the lobbying time, two resolutions get in, one from Japan and one from China. China’s resolution got more signatures.

But before we talked over that, we discussed about the shape of the Earth during the fun debate. The delegate of Republic of Korea did not believe the ‘Flat Earth theory’, he thought the Earth’s shape looks like a donut. According to another theory we should to be afraid of the aliens who would eat the donut.

The delegate of Equatorial Guinea thought that the Earth is flat like a pancake. The delegate of Germany thought that Germany was in the middle of the pancake, Russia said that they sent people to the space, so they know that the Earth is flat and the USA lied about the Moon expedition. The delegate of USA did not agree.

The delegates could not persuade each other about the Earth’s shape, so they returned to the resolution. And what did they come to? I hope it will turn out tomorrow.

This year, the main topic in the World Health Organization’s committee is Innovation in Medicine. In their opening statements, all delegates have stressed the importance of healthcare. One has even said that it is the most important thing that governments should work for. They also emphasized the importance of a coordinated and innovative healthcare resolution which would help people from all around the world. There were several correspondent topics which can be found in every delegate’s opening statement, such as the topic of animal testing, organ transplants, the case of Ebola, AIDS and malaria.

During the second session, there was a rather important debate about how many resolutions should be produced. After the normal one hour long lobbying time, it became clear that the delegate of the UK and few of his supporters want to create another resolution, which would differ from the original one. They asked for the extending of the lobby with forty minutes. This action provoked the Chinese delegate’s dislike, saying why would the committee waste time for a work which the majority of the delegates doesn’t participate in. By the end of the session, the idea of two resolutions have failed.

Before the resolution came back from the approval panel, the committee had started a fictional debate about the Syrian war. Syria was represented by the delegate of Saudi Arabia. The other delegates represented their original states. The delegates debated on topics like housing the refugees and excluding of the United States.

When the resolution of which the main submitter was Germany and its co-submitters were Canada, the USA, Equatorial Guinea, Ethiopia, France, Israel and Switzerland and was signed by the Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia and the People’s Republic of China had finally arrived to the committee, the discussion started. Some of the resolution’s main points were the prevention of tobacco and alcohol use, obesity, mental health issues, the supporting of healthy lifestyle and gender equality in healthcare and medical education. The delegates worked very precisely, exploring each and every point in the resolution paper. Ethiopia had questioned the financial support of the resolution’s ideas, which Germany answered with a witty thought: Using our financial sources.

The delegates of Ethiopia and Poland were late during Day 2. Their punishmen was that they had to sing their represented nation’s national anthems. Written by Marci Kerekes
