Resolution 054: Should the United Nations make more efforts on appealing further assistance for Pakistan to fight against the floods?
In addition to the significant aids from the global community after several floods stroke Pakistan, the United Nations (UN) has raised approximately $460 million in immediate aid for the South Asian country by August 20, 2010. Although this is far from enough, aid-providing countries are to some extend exhausted at the second half of a “disaster year”, after the Haitian earthquake and many other natural disasters have occurred.

Approve: (Yes, the United Nations should make more efforts on appealing further assistance for Pakistan to fight against the floods)
Reject: (No, the United Nations should not make more efforts on appealing further assistance for Pakistan to fight against the floods)
GlobalVote 053: Is the response of the Obama administration to the Mexican Gulf oil spill crisis so far satisfying?
Summary:
As a result of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion on April 20, 2010, 35,000 to 60,000 barrels (1,500,000 to 2,500,000 US gallons) of crude oil per day has flowed into the Mexican Gulf, as estimated. It is one of the most serious ecological catastrophes in the history, and is turning into a political catastrophe for the US government and the owner of the drilling rig, the British Petroleum (BP).
