Host Wins ALSA Unpad E-Challenge 2012

#4 Universitas Padjadjaran A (Ashila Reza, Azwar Aziz, Rendi Prahara) today championed the 2012 ALSA Unpad E-Challenge Debate, which was held at their own campus, after defeating #3 Binus University B (Andi Fahmi, Cassandra Etania Liem, Prasetyo Gema) on a 5-4 split decision in the grand final. They defended the motion "This House Believes that States Have the Right to Unilateral Humanitarian Intervention". The winners reached the last debate after knocking out another Binus team who kept a clean sheet up to the semifinal match.

Rendi, the champion of last year's European Union Intervarsity Debating Championships, led his two team mates who had never made it into the knockouts of any varsity competition before. He also came second on the speaker tab right under Rosmiyana from Binus who took home the top individual award.
