THE 8TH IIUM INTERSCHOOL DEBATING CHAMPIONSHIP 2009
24-29 April 2009
IIUM (KAED and AIKOL)

The time has come....
This is the debate we've been waiting for....
FEEL THE EUPHORIA!!!

Well, basically, I got there under the Seri Ayesha School's name as their trainer.
There, I met with my former schoolmates and debate colleagues from SMKA Maahad Hamidiah and KISAS (ouch!)
Unfortunately, I didnt bring my camera on the grand dinner night, so, no pictures on that moment (such a pity...huhu...)

Ok, I don't think any of you want to hear or read anything on the debate details, so I'll just give a brief report on the debate results (English category only, sorry).
Sri Ayesha won 4 prelim rounds but didn't break (that's better than last year, they didn't win any)
Maahad Hamidiah got to the double octo but didn't get any further.
KISAS managed to break last years record by reaching the quarter finals before got killed by SMI Al-Hidayah, Johor.
English category was won by SMK Green Road, Kuching and Malay category won by SMI Al-Hidayah.

Bravo and congratulations to all who participated!!
It's not just winning, it's about the outcome of the debate for you and others. New pals, new perspectives, new interest and new whatever else, you name it.

Here are the pictures of us:

KSAH, we (me and last year's KISAS team) beaten them in the silent round last year

SMK Hulu Klang, Sri Ayesha beaten them in the first round with a close margin

The semi finalist: TKC in greens

My Sri Ayesha boys from right: Rahman, Syed and Fattah

The worn-out faces of KISASians...

They only showed their faces here after they lost in the Double Octos. Still, Support2!!

Lunch with Hamidians and Sri Ayeshans (those in blacks are Sri Ayeshans)

Say "Oyasumi Nasai"!!

Sweet times with them...

My friend, Amir Azfar from RMC (3rd speaker last year), top ten best speaker

Syed (in black) admires this RMC guy, and his name is Syed too!

Starring from left: Fattah, Rahman, Bro Faiz, Bro Meor, Kak Khalilah and Kak Afifah

Best Friends: Hamidians, Bro Daniel, Kak Afifah, Bro Faiz, Bro Zamir and Nafeesa

LETS JOIN NEXT YEAR'S IIUM DEBATE AS WELL!! LET THERE BE DEBATE!!
