TAIMUN IV

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Taiwan Model United Nations (TAIMUN) IV was held at the American School in Taichung on April 20 and 21, 2006. The growth of the conference continued as nine schools took part, the largest number to that point. This was the first TAIMUN conference to include a school that does not use English as its primary mode of instruction as Hui Wen Senior High School, a local [[Taichung] public high school, participated for the first time. Concordia International School of Shanghai was the other new entry to the conference, making this the first time that TAIMUN included schools from three countries.
