400 student participants, the largest MUN conference in South Asia and an extremely high quality of resolution processing and debate - these are simply the things that summarize a common delegate's experience at DAIMUN 2006.

DAIMUN, having applied for The Hague International Model United Nations' affiliation this year, had switched (the first and only conference in India to do so) to the European THIMUN procedure. We had Mr. Remco van der Zwaag come over to attend our conference, as a representative of THIMUN, to consider our application for a THIMUN affiliation. He was extremely happy at the quality of debate, organization of the conference, quality of student officers and delegates.

As Secretary General, I was extremely pleased to see DAIMUN meet other international MUN conferences in all respects. We had a very high quality of resolutions passed, following vigorous and rich debate. We introduced a plenary for the first time in India and were amazed at the overwhelming response. Among other things, I had the great opportunity of moderating a Panel Discussion between the delegates and two members of parliament, Milind Deora and Jitin Prasada. It proved to be a fantastic experience, thoroughly enjoyed by all. The other speeches by guest speakers were also met by enthusiastic questions from the audience.

The Student Officer team, MUN Director Mrs. Sen and all other teachers involved with DAIMUN were extremely proud when Mr Remco van der Zwaag published in his report and then announced to us the following words "I am very happy to propose to the Board of Directors that DAIMUN be granted the status of THIMUN affiliated conference."

I wish the team of DAIMUN 2007 beats the benchmarks set by the Officer Team of DAIMUN 2006, by their innovations while preserving the glory and culture of DAIMUN 2006. I hope that the next secretariat moves towards making DAIMUN bigger, because in the words of Dhirubhai Ambani "Growth has no limit" and "If you can dream it, you can do it".
