PGA Can Soylu

PGA Is A Crisis Solver

    This year's President of General Assembly (PGA) Can Soylu from Robert College of Istanbul, is like a hero of GA commitees. With what little spare time he has, he agreed to answer our questions and resolved a few more issues while answering the questions. We thank him very much for answering our questions.
Up to this point, how is THIMUN going from your point of view?
It's going very well. Sometimes small urgencies pop up but we are overcoming them. I am enjoying the ceremonies and debates very much.
What do you consider to be your best MUN moment?
There are more than one "best moments". The Closing Ceremony of my first RCIMUN was unforgettable; we said goodbye to many of the people we looked up to. Yet my truly "best moments" are the times when I got lost in Berlin, The Hague and Poland! Surprisingly, I somehow always ended up finding my way!
On the contrary, what was your worst MUN moment?
It was at my very first conference, at SPIMUN 2006. I was intensely working on a Point of Information and I was very passionate about delivering it. However the chair did not recognise me! In an anxious way I kept on working on my point and finally got the floor. So I asked my question, but unfortunately I had been working so hard on writing it down that I didn't notice that an amendment was being entertained and my question's timing was wrong. To make the long story short, everybody started shouting "Point of Order!". That's all I need to say!
What can you say to the delegates about the rest of the conference?
I encourge them to seize the opportunities instead of getting stuck with petty things. THIMUN only comes once a year!

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer our questions! Keep up the good work!
