for everyone
In preparation for the GLOBAL SUMMIT, we were given the a preview of what to expect in the UNITED NATIONS. Here, after a rather "bracing" talk on Global Awareness (Wars in Iraq, The Taliban, Al Queda, Genocide in Sudan, Poverty in Darfur and stuff like that), we toured the INNs and OUTs of the United Nations building.

Our tour guide was a native from Peru who had an interesting accent to compliment his "tour guiding". But we saw and got to have a feel of places most significant in Globalization and keeping the world uder control as we know it.

Here are rare picture of council chambers, gifts and emblems of different nationalites.
