Huang Feiyang
Ever since his first MUN in 2015, Feiyang has found it in himself to continuously attend conferences amidst his other academic interests. He has also chaired for several years at UNAS and SDYC. When he is not vetoing 3-minutes 1 speaker moderated caucuses as a chair, Feiyang can be found aimlessly browsing through BBC to appear intellectual or nursing a cup of generic coffee since he can't afford Starbucks with his pathetic NS pay. He looks forward to productive and fun times with the delegates
Tiffany Foo
Tiffany started her MUN journey at YNCAPMUN 2015 and has since moved on to participate actively in the local MUN scene as a chair, delegate and secretariat member. In her free time, Tiffany enjoys a good game of hide-and-seek, hiding from life’s problems, and seeking out bad life choices.
Royston Long
Royston is currently awaiting his matriculation into the National University of Singapore later this year. He constantly finds himself being involved in crisis committees, recently organising the crisis committees for Singapore Model United Nations 2017 and Nanyang Technological University Model United Nations 2017. He first began his Model United Nations journey in 2014, and since then, he has served on the secretariat for several university-level conferences in both acadamic and operational roles.

Nigel Neo
In contrast with his height, Nigel's mun career is probably the shortest out of everyone listed here. He has contributed to his school's conference, SDYC, as a chair and the crisis council of SMUN 2017 as backroom.
Leonard Sim
Having started going for MUNs six years ago in 2012, he is still ever so excited to participate in one. Being a delegate, chair and backroom member for many crises, he has found that he thoroughly enjoys the fast-paced and rigorous world of crisis and is elated to be given the opportunity to give back to the community and help others discover their joy for crisis. Away from this not-so-secret life of his, he has recently been fully trained as an Operationally Ready National Serviceman and enjoys watching American sitcoms and bringing joy to his friends and family through his various culinary creations.
Elijah Yap
First brought into Crisis by a freak accident, Elijah has developed a taste for experimental MUNs, and won't start a project without at least one stupid idea of his design. Do not leave unattended around normal councils.
Darell Chua
Shastikk Kumaran
Shastikk is a senior at a high school in Singapore. As a pure science student, he is among the rarest breed in MUN. Nevertheless, he has achieved his fair share of success in the Model UN community locally, amassing multiple Best Delegate awards over more than 20 conferences. He has served as a member of the secretariat and as a committee chair as well, most recently as the chairperson for a crisis committee for UNASMUN. This will be his third time as part of a crisis team and his fifth crisis conference overall. Shastikk mostly spends his days staring up aimlessly at stars (otherwise known as astronomy) or fretting over which APs he's going to take, but he still looks forward to meeting all of you.
Darell has recently graduated from NUS High School. Current affairs and avionics are his greatest interests. He has been to 6 MUNs as a member of the dais, and 20th Overall since 2014. Crisis councils are his favorite as he believes it provides people an alternative perspective of events, past future or present. He is excited to provide the best experience for the delegates. He hopes that delegates will have a challenging but meaningful experience. May the odds be in your favour.
