Last Saturday was the debate between Oxford and Cambridge, organised by the Oxbridge Society of Malaysia. It was held in Sunway University College. The motion of the debate was "Security Measures are Justified at the Expense of Civil Liberties". It was an exciting and nail-biting event, with both sides pushing their motion through. Cambridge was the Government, while Oxford took the Opposition stand.
Even though the 6 debaters were equally good, a decision had to be made. Cambridge emerged as the winner. We collected 699 points out of 900, leaving Oxford far behind, at 657.
It's great to see Cambridge winning again! I know of two other winning stories against Oxford this year; a chess tournament and a rowing competition. I'm really proud of the former and latter because the winners of the tournaments were Duane and Jake, students of ESD!
