Failing on Ukraine UN Correspondents Prepare Garish Shindig With Kate Hudson on Wall Street

UN GATE, Nov 7 – While the UN fails on Ukraine and its Secretary General Antonio Guterres covers up for China's genocide against the Uighurs and UN rapists from Karim Elkorany to UN Peacekeepers in the Central African Republic, DRC and Haiti, the UN Correspondents Association is getting ready to party, for the big money.

  For a garish bash in Manhattan's Financial District in December, blocks from where the Hudson River meets the harbor, UNCA members are each being offered one ticket at the "special discounted price" of $100.

  Bribers like Ng Lap Seng, a previous UNCA benefactor then indicted for a fake UN convention center in Macau, will pay much more.  

 Meanwhile this group UNCA has refused since July 2021 to answer this polite letter from pro bono law firm Quinn Emanuel, about Guterres' ongoing ban on Inner City Press which asked him about the Ng case, and the Patrick Ho / CEFC China Energy bribery case which leads directly to Guterres, through the Lisbon-based Gulbenkian Foundation. It's more accurately called the UN Censorship Alliance.  Their announcement:

Dear colleagues, Tickets for the 2022 UNCA Awards are available for purchase starting TODAY, Monday, November 7th. All UNCA members in good standing with their dues can purchase a maximum of ONE (1) ticket at the special discounted price of $100.

We will release additional tickets for your guests closer to the UNCA Awards date. The strict deadline for purchasing your tickets is Friday, November 18th, 2022. Reservations or holds will not be accepted and tickets will not be sold at the discounted rate after the deadline. UNCA member tickets are non-transferable.

The 26th annual UNCA Awards will take place on Friday, December 9th at Cipriani 25 Broadway, (6:30 PM - Cocktails Reception, 8:00 PM - Dinner). UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will be the guest of honor of the evening, and Kate Hudson, the World Food Programme Goodwill Ambassador, will be the recipient of the 2022 UNCA Global Citizen of the Year Award.

*If your 2022 UNCA membership renewal is due, please pay it before purchasing your ticket.  (There is a $2.50 additional charge for payments by credit card).

Thank you for your cooperation and see you in December! Valeria Robecco President, United Nations Correspondents Association
