They have concocted such a rhetoric that makes you believe that terrorism always has something to do with Islam. Therefore, whenever we hear of ethnic cleansing or terrorism we immediately start looking for an Islamic group to blame for it. Maybe that's why we see Syrian civil war and ISIS attacks so often on international media but don't see a well enough coverage of the Myanmar Rohingya crisis very often. However, we don't see our international community very worried about such horrid human rights abuses. If the displaced Rohingyas were not humans but oil tankers then perhaps, the international community would see these atrocities as human right violation and arrive with their bucket of freedom. The kind of ideology that we hear from the face of Buddhist terror, Asin Wirathu, that Rohingyas are somehow a threat to the Buddhist population in Myanmar and they are set to take over Myanmar is not new. It's not the first time that we are hearing this sort of rhetoric, this brand of rhetoric is very old. We've heard the same type of rants from ISIS, the KKK and the Shiv Sena. At the moment, all religions and all ideologies are being manipulated to further alt right political interests. Let me prove it to you. In the historic election where the so called icon of democracy Aung Sun Suu Kyi won a landslide victory in that same election, the main opposing party was the alt right Buddhist nationalist party Ma Ba Tha. So when the party lost the election, they were afraid that their power would erode in the rule of the new government therefore they decided that they must demonstrate their power to hold on to it. Then they spread a rumor that a Rohingya Muslim had raped a Buddhist woman and started persecuting Rohingyas at large. After that, the extremists started burning down houses, raping, torturing and killing Rohingyas relentlessly. And the icon of democracy Suu Kyi has remained deafeningly silent about the matter. Suu Kyi even asked the US government to not to use the term Rohingya. Suu Kyi has refused to condemn the systematic violence done against the Rohingyas because she is now busy counting votes for her re-election. Suu Kyi knows that, if she wants to hold on to power in the next election she must appease these radical Buddhists, or at least the moderate ones. Compared to them, the tortured Rohingyas don't even count because ultimately the Rohingyas don't have voting rights. So their deaths, their screams and their tear don't matter to the icon of democracy. The Rohingyas do not have voting rights because the Myanmar government don't consider them citizens in the first place. They propagate that these people are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh despite the evidence of the Rohingyas living in Myanmar for hundreds for years. The extremists are simply manipulation the governmental rhetoric about the Rohingya. Their main goal is to 'send Rohingyas back' to Bangladesh. The more the radicals see that the Rohingya flee to Bangladesh when they are attacked the more they get encouraged to continue with their atrocities. Some people believe that Bangladesh should take in Rohingyas in following Europe's example of taking middle eastern refugees. But the cases are not comparable. Because the European states are no industrialized that they have an economic need for cheap labor. Bangladesh, on the other hand, is not nearly industrialized enough to employ this huge influx of untrained labor. Bangladesh already has such a surplus of untrained labor that we have to export labor to other countries each year. And if we can't employ them, these unemployed desperate people will fall into a brand new crisis. Such a situation has already arisen. These unemployed desperate people are being exploited by smugglers, terrorists and political goons. The Rohingyas in the existing refugee camps have already resorted to various crimes.

I represent The Democratic People's Republic of Korea. We are here today in another model united nations conference. We believe that the present delegation will engage only to substantial debates, in order to make this conference productive and relevant. Let's all take the wisest decisions after considering every delegation that is bearing in mind that UN was created to make a better world and not to satisfy any individual will. I would like to share with our preoccupation regarding the minimization of violation of human rights in conflict zones and promotion of social inclusivity of asylum-seekers and war-afflicted individuals.

As a result, individuals develop a deeper understanding of environmental issues and have the skills to make informed and responsible decisions. Tomorrow's leaders need to be equipped for tomorrow's challenges, and we must adequately prepare our children for the future they will inherit. That requires a commitment to providing children with environmental education. Less economically developed countries need attention to be a part of environmental education and sustainable development. The challenges waiting in the path of ensuring environmental education for the developing countries: Most developing countries have long since established laws and formal governmental structures to address their serious environmental problems, but few have been successful in alleviating those problems. The development banks, which control resources desperately needed by the developing countries, are promoting the use of economic incentives and other market-based strategies as the key to more effective environmental protection. However, the donors have rarely asked whether the approaches they are urging, which have recently had some success in Europe and the United States, can be implemented effectively in developing countries with limited resources and little experience with market-based policies of any kind. These highly sophisticated instruments have been pushed too hard and too fast, and that those who promote them say little about the context and conditions in which they thrive. The targets of this advice should be better

DISEC deals with issues regarding the promotion, establishment, and subsequent maintenance of global peace while simultaneously working to prevent weapons proliferation and weaponization of future technologies. The topic of regulating the weaponization of ever evolving future technologies and peace keeping has been a top priority for the U.N for many years. The people of Mexico feel that it is imperative that we take on the increasing weaponization of future technology. Additionally, we must also discuss whether weaponization should be limited or banned, and if so, how. The possibilities of such future technology are limitless. And as a result of the capacity of such forms of technology to be contained, the development of these forms of technology into weapons can be easily kept secret. This raises a dangerous contention, wherein nations with the ability to effectively make use of such technology, can easily develop lethal weapons which calls international security into question. Additionally, the issue of the proliferation of the weaponization of new forms of technology will become an issue unless mechanisms are put in place to limit the possibilities of weaponization. Lastly, the concern pertaining to the accessibility of such forms of technology remains a question -Less economically developed countries will be at a disadvantaged as the developed nations will be far ahead in terms of defense and attack abilities.
