Debate Competition (March 2016)

DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIVITY

A total of 8 students participated in the Debate on Logistics And Transport 2016 at the AK Academy, Penang. Six teams of four debaters from Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman, Universiti Utara Malaysia and AK Academy were invited to participate in this competition held on the 12^th of March. UTAR’s Team A managed to get second place, losing to UUM in the final by a score of 70-72. UTAR’s Team B lost in the preliminary round to the eventual champions.

During the event, the participants were able to network with UUM and AK Academy. They are two of the few schools who offer the Logistics course in their institution. We were able to invite them to participate in our upcoming event, Talk Series June 2016. The team were also able to get insight on the industry, as the moderators of the competition are well known figures in the logistics industry.
