WUDC 2012: Indonesian Results

The 2012 World University Debating Championships had 17 Indonesian teams. Two of them, University Indonesia C and Sekolah Tinggi Akuntansi Negara A, broke into the EFL semifinals. Roderick Sibarani (UI A) grabbed 2nd best EFL speaker title immediately followed by Ahmad Naufal Dai at 3rd.

Several Indonesian speakers qualified as ESL, a higher category than EFL, including Adlini Ilma Ghaisany (UI A) who was the best among Indonesians. Had she passed the EFL requirement, she would have been the tournament's top  EFL speaker and UI A could have debated in the EFL semifinals. Only those with less than 3 months of living in an English-speaking country during school age or 6 months of studying in an institution where English is the instruction language can qualify as EFL speakers. The ESL threshold is less than 5 years of living in an English-speaking country during school age or studying in institutions where English is the instruction language.

Almost 400 teams or 800 speakers from over 40 countries joined WUDC 2012. The top team on the Open tab scored 23 points while the last breaking pair had 18. The top scoring Indonesian team of all time got 16 points in WUDC 2008. The highest ranked Indonesian team ended at #85 in WUDC 1999. The best Indonesian speaker reached #186 also in WUDC 1999.
