FACT: SIWON CHOI IS A POINTED UNICEF GOODWILL AMBASSADOR FOR EAST ASIAN AND PACIFIC REGION.
Let& #39;s break down from WHAT IS UNICEF?
UNICEF is a UN specialist agent that work in children& #39;s right (picture below taken from UNICEF web) #IgasIR101
Let& #39;s break down from WHAT IS UNICEF?
UNICEF is a UN specialist agent that work in children& #39;s right (picture below taken from UNICEF web) #IgasIR101
So UNICEF is working in 190 countries which are the country that is a state member of UN. (Like it or love it, one of them is Israel) #IgasIR101
Why UNICEF has to point a Goodwill Ambassador?
Because it needs a person who has a big influence to promote their goals to civilians and make it familiar so the "work" of UNICEF will be easier. #IgasIR101

UNICEF actually has some of Goodwill Ambassador depend on the category, you can see it here https://www.unicef.org/people/people_ambassadors_international.html">https://www.unicef.org/people/pe... --> this one haven& #39;t ben update I think #IgasIR101
But here& #39;s a proof Siwon Choi is chosen as Goodwill Ambassador https://www.unicef.org/eap/press-releases/korean-super-junior-star-siwon-choi-new-unicef-regional-ambassador-east-asia-and">https://www.unicef.org/eap/press...

After chosen as a Goodwill Ambassador, automatically Siwon is a representative and ambassador of UNICEF (especially in East Asia and Pacific Regional). #IgasIR101
What an ambassador does? You can refer to this thread https://twitter.com/itsmixxty/status/1308175090106789888">https://twitter.com/itsmixxty... thank you for sharing @itsmixxty she& #39;s a Filipinos, but I agree that all the diplomat/abmassador around the world do that kind of thing for work, for diplomacy #IgasIR101
SO HERE COME THE CASE #IgasIR101
Israel invites Siwon (as a UNICEF representation of course there& #39;s no way as an idol. The idol title only effective for the domestic issue), Siwon cannot refuse the invitation because...

1. Siwon the representative of UNICEF.
2. If Siwon refuses = UNICEF refuses its member state.
3. That act ruining UNICEF diplomacy with its member state and ruining UNICEF& #39;s work in Israel. #IgasIR101

BUT ISRAEL IS CRUEL COUNTRY!
Well, that& #39;s the government& #39;s behavior toward Palestine. No, I also don& #39;t agree with that behaviour but still, Israel has its right on the UN because Israel is a state member of UN. #IgasIR101

UN also doesn& #39;t agree with Israel& #39;s goverment behavior, but the UN (through its agency, UNICEF) still have to do the work. Remember that UNICEF works related CHILD PROTECTION & INCLUSION. Even children in Israel has possibility to lose their right to be protected #IgasIR101
SO WHAT SIWON DOES THAT HE WORKS FOR UNICEF TO MAKE SURE THE CHILDREN IN ISRAEL IS PROTECTED AND HAVE AN INCLUSION ENVIRONMENT. #IgasIR101
So, please support Siwon, he does a great work :)
