IVED - Day One

The day started by registration and opening ceremony with speeches from SEF head master, Pandu. After more speeches, the event continued by seminar about debating and adjudicating which were given by our Chief Adjudicator, Uphie and four Deputy Chief Adjudicators.

The next event in schedule was exhibition debate for accrediting adjudicators. The motion for the exhibition was THW decriminalize the possesion of all drugs. The affirmative team which consisted of Pandu, Syauqi, and Urfi brought about citizen's right in wellfare country to choose what they want as long as they have rational thinking. The negative team which consisted of Caessar, Meganusa, and Callos brought about drugs make the users get addicted, so they are not making a rational decision when the are consuming drugs. The secong classes was about illegal or black markets. Affirmative side believed that their policy about legalizing drugs will eliminate the black markets; the negative side in the other hand disagree with that saying that the black market will still be there because of its own nature.

Well, as I can't give deep assessment of the debate we'll continue on the next event in schedule which  was lunch break in the same time accreditation for accrediting adjudicators. After the lunch break while accrediting process still in its way, the event continued with master round in the debaters hall. The master round was about should or should not government provide flavoured condoms in a cannibalism culture country. The master round was conducted in British Parliamentary which was consisted of four teams each consisted of two persons. Somehow the debate was about oral sex intercourse in which government should or should not provide flavored condoms because in cannibal culture where people eat a person's meat, flavored condoms could give solutions for problem in cannibal country which was Africa. Full of crazy ideas the debate was full of laugh from the audience.

Those were all what we had just done today which were pretty fun and exhausting for those who does not get enough sleep because of the travel. The debate competition is going to start tomorrow. So, see you there folks.

;D
