Pertandingan Debat Piala DYMM Sultan Zainal Abidin

Uitm Dungun, Terengganu
15th-18th May 2008

UMT Debater, Researchers And Coach

UMT once again agreed to send teams for this tournament. Its a comeback for UMT since its long absence for 2 years past from this tournament because of some reason. 1 Malay team and 1 English debate team were sent to bring up UMT name on the stage of Malaysia's Universities.

Both team tried their best in the tournament, preparations have been made weeks before and in the tournaments lies the battle ahead. Fair enough, we did our best.

The game was surely a challenge as now we know there other people out there who is much more greater than we are. And in a game of debate, winning or losing, it all depends on the team-work itself. you cant win if only you are the good one while the others are not and you cant also win if you think you are far greater than your team mates. Its a debate, and each and everyone of you in the team regardless weather you are the debater or the researcher, you are the foundation of the team. All contributes towards the winning of your debate team.

Uitm Dungun itself have sure did their best in holding up the tournament. Congratulations for the great job.

As for our debaters, the UMT Malay Debate team only manage to pass into the quarter-finals as the fail on winning towards UDM making UDM continue to the semi-final and finals whereas the UMT Malay debate team puts it on hold there.

The UMT English Debate Team

On the other hand, the UMT English Debate team manage to get through until the finals, fought on the stage with UMP and secured the runner up after UMP for this PISZA Tournament.

Winning or losing, we now sure that we have slightly improved from the last Royale's Tournament. We didn't went back to UMT with an empty hand. Other than the big voucher and trophy for the English team, we all did get something far much more better. Improvements and new friends in the world of Malaysian debaters.
