DISC: Welcome letter. ================================================================================ Disarmament and Internati 2009 on 12 October, 2009 04:05:00 Disarmament and International Security Committee (DISC) On behalf of MEXMUN 2009 staff, please receive our greetings and the warmest welcome to this simulation and to the Disarmament and International Security Committee (DISC). We thank you for choosing this committee and specially for being part of the XIX edition of the Mexico Model United Nations Conference. We are deeply glad to host for you once more and we hope that your stay is pleasant and successful for your personal growth. In this occasion DISC will discuss two topics of great relevance to the international agenda. Reduction of military budgets is an issue that matters to all delegations in the context of a financial crisis and latent threats to international security. Small Arms and Light Weapons Traffic has the objective of analyzing this issue and finding a solution to this situation that affects one of the most unfortunate regions in the world: Africa. Finally the chair reminds you that as part of a multilateral forum, you must work hard in order to achieve international cooperation that benefits all States. The chair hopes for a high level debate in order to accomplish all of the objectives of the committee and to find the best solutions for these issues. Remember that only through union, respect and tolerance can we reach success. Once more, we wish you luck and we ask you to give the best of yourselves to worthly represent your delegations and the ideals of youth. Welcome to MEXMUN 2009! Sincerely, Jorge A.
