Worlds 2010 Results

Here's a repost of what Uphie sent to indodebaters mailing list, on the Indonesian teams result of Worlds Koc 2010. I say, congratulation is in order nonetheless, particularly to Pandu and Uphie!

Hi!

Just arrived home from Koc Worlds 2010 and would like to inform all of you the brief final results of Indonesian contingent's performance the tournament.

BANDUNG A - Muhammad Pandu & Luthfi Abdurrahman

YOGYAKARTA A - Vitri Sekar Sari & Teddy Hendra
Final rank: 323rd (84th on the ESL tab) with 9 points 10 points and 1286 scores.


General results of the tournament are as follows. University of Sydney Union (Christopher Croke & Steve Hind) won the competition, while the crown of Worlds Best Speaker this year goes to Mr. Shengwu Li from the Oxford Union. ESL champion is Tel Aviv (Yoni Cohen and Uri Merhav) with Manos Moschopoulos from Athens as ESL best speaker. EFL Champion is MGIMO (Mikhail Sazonov & Maria Savostyanova with Filip Dobranic (who is also the ESL 3rd best speaker) from Ljubljana as the EFL best speaker.

The Masters Debate (with its finals turning ill) unfolds,
former World Champion the Canadians Joanna Nairn and Michael Kotrly
team Vanuatu (Derek Lande and Jason Rogers) as champion, perhaps due to their least controversial performance in a grand final that can be described as acrid; Josh from Griffiths won the best stand-up comedy, while Riva Gold from McGill snatched the trophy for World's Best Public Speaker.

Such are the results. Definitely a bit disappointing, but there's no use in overmourning it. It's new year's anyway, so everything's actually a boost-up to fuel better Indonesian performances (and constant attendances) in upcoming Worlds. Philippines' De La Salle University won the 2012 bid so it's worth our effort to plan Indonesian institutions' grand entry to one of the cheapest worlds ever (and a very close one, too).

Tab junkie,
