 The Reign of technical issues 


Technical issues in the minimum wage debate have already occurred as early as in the first session. With the delegate of firms (against) having mic issues, and being unable to speak when she was called upon. This is definitely not the way the delegate of firms (against) would wish to begin the day, nevertheless, the delegate was still able to deliver a captivating opening speech in the end. The opening speeches in the minimum wages were gripping despite the fact the delegates were beginners and they all participated enthusiastically.

  Is Jealousy the New Statecraft? -Anagha, Xinhua Press Agency China has a long history of providing aid to countries, dating back to 1963, in Algeria. This has developed economies across the planet and advanced social progress exponentially, despite the cloud of suspicion casted over it by capitalist  ‘superpowers’. A young asian nation is a threat to the imperialist west, especially when exponential economic progress is coupled with equality unheard of under capitalism. It seems that delegates involved in the China debate are eager to continue this legacy, as demonstrated by their obvious untruths and propaganda mongering. What cuts deep, however, is the uncalled for criticism by Asian states and China’s own allies!  South Korea, an Asian Brother, claims to be neutral, perhaps because of how much it benefits from China’s economic progress, yet it’s delegate spreads hysteria in the committee through assertions that warn other nations to be wary of the aid so gracefully provided by Chi

  Research, Please! One would expect that the most obvious requirement of taking part in a debate about artificial intelligence is knowing how algorithms work. As far as what we can tell with AI debate, even this is too much to expect. When confronted with the realities of gender imbalances perpetuated by the use of AI in hiring, the delegate representing Governments in Favour, had the unfortunately inarticulate response, “ machines have no feelings”. To enlighten him, this is not a baseless claim like many of his, it is a well documented phenomenon because of the basic fact that AI essentially contains codified human behavior, albeit on a significantly larger scale. This agency hopes that delegates will attempt to research in the future.  -Anagha, Xinhua Press Agency

  NO NATION IS HOLDING BACK AT THE CHINA DEBATE! By: Ivannah Jacob, Xinhua The delegates debating on the effects of China's economic growth have certainly not let anything hold them back. From the get go, delegates were at each other's throats all while discussing relevant points and making their stances clear. While some countries have clearly recognised the importance of China’s economic growth and the benefits of allying with China, other countries, such as South Korea recognise the benefits but are still “wary”. Delegates such as the delegate of Taiwan and Hong Kong let loose a string of accusations against China and its policies. However, the delegate of China remained calm and composed and wasted no time in utilising his GSL as a strategic tool to address these pointless claims. There is no doubt that he will represent China to the best of his abilities. While China is busy fending off Hong Kong and Taiwan, tensions have also flared between North Korea and South K
