Thank You Speech on HKMUNC Inauguration Ceremony cum Seminar

(A Speech by Season Ho in the Inauguration Ceremony cum Seminar of Hong Kong Model United Nations Club)

By Season Ho

Dear honourable guests, advisors and students,

On behalf of the Hong Kong Model United Nations Club, I would like to give my heartfelt thanks to all of you for supporting our Inauguration Ceremony cum Seminar. Thank you Dr.Leong, Mrs Law, Mr Piket, Ms Mong, Mr Shih, Ms Jiang and Mr Tsui for sparing the time out of your busy schedule to join our ceremont. I am sure that all the participants and the Club members have learnt a lot from your sharing.

This is our first time to initiate such an International Youth Series, having activities ranging from MUN Conferences, visits and symposiums to consulates, and the inauguration ceremony cum seminar today.

These events would not be made possible without the support from our partner organisations, including the Digital Broadcasting Cooperation Hong Kong Limited, the Bloomberg Institute and of course, Asia Society Hong Kong Center, that sponsored us such a beautiful venue. We would like to thank these organizations for recognizing the effort of MUNC, in improving youth awareness on global issues and promoting Model United Nations culture in the region.

With the increasing participation of Hong Kong youths in socio-political affairs, it is truly delightful to see more and more students joining our conference in the hopes of becoming more familiar with geopolitics. I would also like to welcome all overseas delegates for coming to Hong Kong and joining our HKMUNC2014, giving our conference an international perspective.

Here, I would like to thank the devoted executive committee members of our Club, who have paid much effort in organizing the seminar and the whole series. Since September when our Committee is formed, we have had numerous meetings and discussions on how to make the best out of our club and improve Hong Kong students’ awareness on global issues. From major events like MUN conference to small-scale event like consulate visits, our committees have been really devoted in out Club affairs. It is never easy to manage schoolwork and our club duties at the same time, but the committee has done it and I hope all of you would be able to feel and understand the extent to which their time and effort have made a difference when you know more about what our Club has done and what we are going to do in the following months.

Once again, I would like to thank you for joining us this year. I wish you all an enlightening conference and hope to see you all in our future events!
