Inter Polytechnic Debates 2008

8 November 2008 – The preliminary rounds

Today was the first day of the Inter Polytechnic Debates 2008. Teams from Nanyang Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Singapore Polytechnic and Temasek Polytechnic came down to Nanyang Polytechnic to fight it out to see who the best is when it comes to debating. The preliminary rounds were held at Blk E Level 3. The matches that were played were exciting to watch. Even the motions were interesting. One of them that caught my eye was the match between NYP and NP. Even the motion was interesting. It has something to do with whether bestiality should be banned. The debate was so funny until I laughed my hearts out after the debate ended. After the preliminary round was over, only 4 teams made it to the semi-finals. They are NYP team A and B, TP team B and SP team A.

15 November 2008 – Semi-finals & Grand finals

After 1 week of break, the semi-finals and Grand finals were finally ready to begin. In the semi-finals, both NYP teams faced off and TP team B and SP team A were in the other semi-finals. After a close debate, NYP team A and TP team B went head to head in the Grand finals which was held at the Theatre For The Arts. The motion was quite interesting. It was something about Sarah Palin bringing down the image of women in politics. After a great final, TP emerged victorious. It was a very close debate but at least the NYP team gave all their best. Don’t worry we will try our best to reclaim the title again next year!
