代表们大家好，
精准扶贫是一项具有可持续发展意义的项目。可是，在具体落实精准扶贫的过程中，免不了会慢慢出现一些问题。今天想给大家分享的两篇新闻就是有关精准扶贫所产生的问题的。
这篇新闻是有关一些不法分子利用人性和监管漏洞以精准扶贫为幌子进行诈骗的故事。代表们可以思考一下如何从各部门角度应对这种诈骗现象的发生。
第二篇新闻是有关精准扶贫思想在落实到地方政府的时候产生的一些腐败现象。代表们可以从优化评价机制入手，思考如何在各部门的管辖范围内提出解决方案。
我们期待与你们在三月见面！

MUN Advice: Making Motions
Hey all,
Here's something that's super important about MUN.
It's so important that MUN can even be called Motion UN, and I wouldn't bat an eye.
Making a good motion is essential to being a good delegate. They often affect the flow of committee and will get a delegate noticed by the chair should they pass often. They are also instrumental in writing the resolution, as they bring up points that are relevant to the solution for all delegates to talk with each other and negotiate about. Motions have to be:
1. Relevant,
2. Contribute to the current discussion, or propose a new idea to the problem,
3. Presented with the correct wording.
If the dais mentions that a certain motion would be 'smiled upon', or looked upon favorably, try to make that motion! It is most likely to advance discussion or to prevent circular speeches that all reach the same conclusion.
Motions can be used for many things, from opening debate, setting the agenda, creating a moderated caucus, unmoderated caucus, enter voting block, and more.
An example of a good motion to enter moderated caucus would be:
'The Delegate of Zimbabwe would like to motion for a 10 minute with 1 minute speaking time moderated caucus on the topic of helping to implement China's One Belt and One Road policy.'
Note how the motion is specific, provides a total time and speaking time, and provides a topic to discuss. It is also in third person, which is necessary for speeches AND motions.
An example of a good motion to enter unmoderated caucus would be:
'The Delegate of Canada would like to motion for a 10 minute unmoderated caucus on the topic of writing resolutions.'
Note how even unmoderated caucuses need a topic; this is BMUN procedure.
This is just an introduction to making motions; during conference, actually making motions will hone your skills to be a motion-making-master in no time!
See you at conference!

IMPORTANT MUN Advice : CSC Only Procedure
CSC PROCEDURE
CSC will generally follow Standard BMUN Procedure. You can find the standard BMUN Procedure on the following website: https://learnbmun.squarespace.com/procedure-flow/
However, there are several differences between CSC procedure and standard BMUN procedures.
You will work with and against around 20 delegates to not only arrive at the best possible solution to the two key issues in the topic synopsis, but also solve many related problems in a relatively quick-paced fashion. Hence, the pace of the committee will be quicker than that of a regular committee, but slower than that of a crisis committee. In addition, all delegates are single delegation and instead of representing countries, you will represent one minister/ministry of the Chinese State Council.
However, during the specific crisis time (the dais will let you know when the committee encounters crisis), the committee will be in a perpetual moderated caucus with a set speaker time. The committee can still choose to go into unmods or have moderated caucuses with different speaking times, but unless another option is selected the chair will enter a perpetual moderated caucus and call on delegates with their placards raised.
DIRECTIVES
These directives will still require signatories and sponsors, but unlike resolutions they don’t require pre-ambulatory clauses, and will be voted on by regular voting like vote on motions. Specifically, the chairs will help read each directive, and the delegates will vote in favour upon them by raising their placard after each directive is read.
The directives often have one to four operative clauses, though they can be longer. In some cases, these directives can cause real action instead of just acting as recommendations depending on the action and the jurisdiction of the committee. In typical MUN resolutions, you can only suggest action.
Format:
Directive Title
Sponsors: Entity 1
Signatories: Entity 2, Entity 3, Entity 4, Entity 5
1. Recommends operative 1;
2. Moves to operative 2;
3. Decides operative 3.
PERSONAL DIRECTIVES
Perhaps the most fun difference between crisis committees and regular ones is the personal directive. Personal directives, unlike committee directives, can be made in secret and given directly to the head chair without being voted on by the committee. They are how a delegate exerts personal power. For example, the 公安局 can 开展禁毒行动 by themselves without the help of other ministries.
The outcome of every directive, both personal and committee, will be determined by the dais, who will attempt to keep the committee moving forward in a fun, but realistic, fashion. Procedurally, crisis committees are a lot simpler than regular committees, but the internal dynamics between the members of the committee and the nature of the topic change much quicker and more frequently. If you want to be successful in a crisis committee you must both be well researched and highly adaptable, as you never quite know what path the committee will go down.
You will not need to include the solutions to the crisis or your directives into your resolution. However, if some real actions are proposed and agreed by the whole committee. The resolution need to be made with these hypothetical situations in mind. For example, if 计生委 proposes that the birth limit will be completely abandoned, then other ministers need to keep this hypothetical fact in mind and come up solutions.

COMMITTEE STRUCTURE
To manage this relatively quick pace, there are a few structural and procedural differences between CSC and a regular/crisis committee. First, there will still be a speaker’s list, and the delegates will still need to write resolutions.
However, during the specific crisis time (the dais will let you know when the committee encounters crisis), the committee will be in a perpetual moderated caucus with a set speaker time. The committee can still choose to go into unmods or have moderated caucuses with different speaking times, but unless another option is selected the chair will enter a perpetual moderated caucus and call on delegates with their placards raised.
DIRECTIVES
Besides the final resolution for voting at the end, the committee will also pass some committee directives during crisis time. In order to solve crisis, rather than pass resolutions, the delegates need to pass committee directives, which have a few distinct differences. Whether committee directives will be voted on immediately or at the end of the next moderated or unmoderated caucus will be decided by a vote by the whole committee.
These directives will still require signatories and sponsors, but unlike resolutions they don’t require pre-ambulatory clauses, and will be voted on by regular voting like vote on motions. Specifically, the chairs will help read each directive, and the delegates will vote in favour upon them by raising their placard after each directive is read.

Topic 1 Related Event: 中国移民局成立 China Sets Up State Immigration Administration
Hello Delegates,
This is an article by the China Daily on the establishment of Chinese new immigration department.
Before 2018, the custom was controlled by Chinese military. The customs officers in Chinese used to be 边防官兵，which literally means border soldier. However, after March 2018, these "Border Soldiers" are substituted by the immigration police. The custom was no longer controlled by the military but by a sub-department of the public security ministry, State Immigration Administration.
The establishment of the State Immigration Administration is phenomenal because though China issued few green cards to foreigners, China was generally considered to be an nonimmigrant country. The found of the new Administration indicates that Chinese government might seek foreign immigrants to help accelerate the development of China, and China will be more international in the future.
Things to consider:
1. How does the establishment of the State Immigration Administration contribute to Made in China 2025?
2. How does your ministry help Chinese citizens adapt to possible future changes?

Topic 2 Article: China Economic Journal
Hello everyone!
Here's an article in the China Economic Journal that looks at China's government institutions in rural areas.
It provides background about the forms of government and describes how villages are not only geographic, economic, and cultural hubs, but also platforms for government initiatives. Villages form the backbone of Chinese government and it is important to understand how the central government works in these areas before developing solutions and policies.

Introduction - Justin Qu
Hi Delegates!
Welcome to CSC! My name is Justin Qu (瞿心瀚) and I'll be serving as one of the Vice Chairs (along with Hubert and Billy). I am currently a freshman studying Computer Science and this will be my 4th year participating in MUN.
Fun facts:
- I went to the same high school as Billy :0
- I became a full time "MUN person" after
I quit debate because I didn't make it past NationalsI found out that the speaking skills and confidence I built during my debate career gave me an edge in MUN and that I really enjoyed politics - I may or may not have stalked everyone I knew using the massive database of registered voters that my Member of Parliament had when I interned with him last year (please don't report me it was part of my job I swear)

- 大吉大利， 晚上吃鸡
If you have any questions (or dank memes you want to send me), please feel free to contact me at jqu@bmun.org!
See you in March,
Justin Qu
Welcome to CSC!
Hello delegates!
My name is Hubert Luo (罗弘哲) and I'll be one of your Vice Chairs for CSC this year. I'm a third year studying applied math and statistics with a concentration in data science. This will be my seventh year doing MUN, and second year chairing CSC.
Outside of MUN, I'm currently conducting research with Professor Stark in the statistics department, where I help work on a project that examines whether race and gender affect the type and duration of questions/interruptions during an academic talk. Previously, I've also worked with Professor Zhou in the psychology department on a longitudinal study investigating the factors that affect the socio-emotional development in Chinese-American children.
I'm passionate about swimming as well as hockey and am a proud member of LeafsNation. In my rare moments of free time, I can usually be found writing about hockey players of Asian descent or managing my team in an online baseball simulator.
If you have any questions about CSC, the topics, or even data science, please don't hesitate to email me or any of the CSC chairs. I look forward to seeing you all at conference!
