ACMUN 2009.

The first ever ACMUN – ‘Aitchison College Model United Nations’, was held on the 14th of October, 2009 and extended to the 16th. Teams from all over Pakistan were eager and awaiting the inaugural competition since February, and it lived up to the expectations.

The ACMUN ’09 was a three day event, filled with excitement, fun and great socialising, not to mention the long discussion sessions, in which delegates were at their very best to resolve issues concerning their respective committees. Delegates came from schools from Islamabad and Sialkot as well as other cities in the Punjab.

There were a total of six committees, which held 5 sessions each. The sessions were spread over the three day time span, each stretching to 3 hours, excluding the first, 1-hour, information session. The sessions were not just boring discussions and arguments between delegates of different countries, but also included numerous entertainment sessions, in which the delegates were free to do anything they wanted, dancing, singing, writing anonymous notes, or even resting their heads.

Besides the committee sessions, there were social events, including ‘Global Village’, ‘Battle Of The Bands’ and the formal dinner, held on different days in the same order.

The ‘GLOBAL VILLAGE’ was the ultimate litmus test of our creativity, where we had to display our country’s culture, express our country’s traditions, cuisine, artefacts and even clothes. Check out Hamna and Maryam in the pics ;-). Teams were judged on originality and the accuracy of factual information that we had about our country. We are proud to convey, that with hard work and an extra-ordinary effort from our school’s art team, our school won the 4th prize out of 31 in the global village.

The ‘BATTLE OF THE BANDS’ was an amazing event with 12 different bands competing for the prize, but disappointingly, it was called off in the middle, just as things were heating up – or else we would have won, obviously :-).

The ‘FORMAL DINNER’ was really, really............not that good. There were no tables and we had no place to put our glasses or papers, enough for the ‘FORMAL’ part. But it was nice otherwise, mixing with all the other delegates and saying our goodbyes. Oh, and the food was good, I guess.

Overall, we would have to give Aitchison College a thumbs up, on a great effort and an amazing effort to organize such a major event which went according to plan and expectations.

Ohhh, and I almost forgot, our school’s delegates were, Muhammad Ali, Ismail Abdul Wahid, Abdul Qavi Khan, Nauman Malik, Humna Adeeb and Maryam Anwar. And our assigned country was Finland.
