First of I shall declare that without this person, we would not have qualified this far, and would have failed in the priliminary rounds on the first day.
This person held the most important post in the debate team for all the matches, which is the 3rd speaker, meaning the Whip of the Ministry regardless of whether we held the side of the Government or Opposition.
And this person was the BEST speaker in FOUR of our FIVE matches!!! the only one she wasn't was at the quarter finals.
This person is....
*drumroll*
Ms NGO LEE LING!
sorry. if we had been better speakers to support you our team might have gotten further on in the match...
eh please note i'm not trying to gosok kasut, k.
as i promised, i shall now post the comments by our team members regarding their involvement in this debate competition:
Lee Ling: I feel BioM team is not fully prepared and that good after all after i've seen how the teams in the semi final really fight neck to neck about the topic NEP, with strong points and good strategy. I over underestimated the teams we fought with.
Chark: i think without coaching and experience and we get this far to quarter finals it is amazing enough. and the top four teams are GREAT speakers. wow. especially KKK. then there was this girl from IT that we lost to who was GREAT as well. this, people, is talent.
Eric: i think i'm the one causing our team is lost.....sorry ok!!!!!AND if firdaus came that time i think our team will win huhuhuuuu....... but if see the semi final team..they are more better than us because of they have more experiences...... that's all....TQ...
Firdaus: I’m very happy and the debate was enjoyable. Hope to join it again next year..
there you have it. the comments from our participants.
Lee Ling was the whip and best speaker among us, and also top among all the participants. i can't help feeling that if we had been better speakers who could have a chance in the semi finals.
me: Ngo Lee Ling, please comment on your feelings upon receiving the title of THE best speaker in the english debate.
LL: Em. personally i regret not attending the prize giving ceremony as i had to attend the ceremony for those who got on the dean's list.
this girl on dean list people. dun play play.
LL(cont.): but i feel very happy and i appreciate the organizers giving this award.
however lookin' on the bright side, i personally think maybe this is a blessing in disguise...because we lost in the quarters we had the opportunity to witness the greatness of the KKK team and not stress ourselves out.
finals were between bioD and post harvest. i was REALLY shocked when KKK lost! they were great! i mean, bioD were stuttering and stuff. man.
i suppose it was all down to the strategy and rebuttal of points.
oh well.
OH MAN! KKK SHOULD HAVE WON!!!!!
I find the judges totally biased.
Sitting through the Finals, i can't help but feel that the semi finals i sat through was SO much better. the teams, sorry to say, if any participant happens to stumble on this blog, was boring, to say the least.
plus the audience (excluding me of course) was goddamn noisy and disruptive. but it was legal to do so, so i kept quiet.
and listening to the finals i get headache from their superb grammar.
goddamn them.
so yeah. XD
but after listening to the finals of the BM debate, which was WOW on both sides, i realise that, yeah. they really do look at your points as the main thing.
doesn't matter if you can't speak the language,
as long as you present strong points and are able to kill the opponent's points,
you'd win.
doesn't matter if your mastery of the english language isn't that good.
