1. INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS DEBATE?• Debate is about giving information, facts, and explaining it through
structured argumentations, and supporting structure. Examples explain logic. It’s not logic explains examples.
• Debate is representing your own party, society, or whom you stand for. Example: Republican Party, Democratic Party, Feminist Movement, LGBTQIA Movement, Born This Way Foundation, etc.
• Debate is about consistency, and team work.
VISUALIZATION
2. TEAMS
TEAM
• Asian Parliamentary System (3 on 3 Debate):– Consists of two teams and three speakers in each– The teams are:
• Affirmative / Government / Positive / Proposition (argue in favor of the motion / topic)
• Negative / Opposition (argue to against the motion / topic)
AFFIRMATIVE / GOVERNMENT / POSITIVE SIDE
• Supporting the motion• Setting up the debate through explaining several things:
– Problem why do we need the motion– Urgency Point why the motion is important to debate– Justification Point why the motion is right– Practical level analysis why the motion is applicable /
beneficial
• NOTE: Rebut your opponent!
NEGATIVE / OPPOSITION SIDE OF THE HOUSE
• Opposing the motion• Negating the debate through explaining several things:
– Negation why Govt case is wrong / the problem doesn’t exist– Counter Proposal* why your case is even better to solve the
problem– Justification Point why motion is not right– Practical level analysis why the motion is not applicable /
beneficial

SPEAKER ROLES
• Government side of The House:– Prime Minister (PM)– Deputy Prime Minister
(DPM)– Government Whip (GW)

• PM- Definition &
Contextualization- Substantial Arguments for
proposing the motion (Urgency, Justification, Practical Analysis)
- Summary
• LO- Clarifying PM’s case set up
(if necessary) - Rebuttals for PM’s
arguments- Substantial Arguments for
opposing the motion (No Urgency, Unjustification, Practical Analysis)
- Summary
DEPUTYS
• Rebuttals for the previous opponent speaker’s arguments
• Extension Arguments (different from your 1st speaker, PM/LO) usually focus more on the impact of the motion whether it will bring benefit or harm
• Summary
WHIPS
• Map out how the debate went (clustering some issues and summarizing the debate)
• Add more rebuttals but NO NEW ARGUMENTS• Comparing your case with your opponent’s case
Proving your team case is way better• Summary
REPLY SPEAKERS

4. MOTIONS
MOTION(S)
• Topic to debate. It must be debatable (both sides have same room to defend their positions)
• E.g. We won’t debate upon whether or not China is a Democratic Country, but whether China as a social Communism Country should ban One Child Policy
• It has two type of motions:– Proposal– Philosophical
PROPOSAL MOTIONS
• Mostly it begins with This House Would …• Example: THW Legalize Drugs, THW Disband FPI, etc.• This motion aimed / expect the debaters to debate
whether or not certain action needs to be done, without neglecting philosophical ground (Require certain mechanism)
PHILOSOPHICAL MOTIONS
• Mostly it begins with This House Believe That … / This House Regrets …
• Example: THBT ice bucket challenge brings more harm than good to ALS, etc.
• This motions expect debaters to debate whether or not certain value is wrong / right, or judging certain value based on certain reasons without neglecting practical level analysis.
HEADING
• In each round, Adj-core will only release one heading (consists of 3 motions)
• The heading will only be used for ONCE• E.g. LUST IN LOVE Heading 1. THBT everybody deserves a second chance2. TH regrets the extravagance of wedding ceremonies Motions3. THW stop looking for love and get into
an arranged marriage
MOTIONS PRIORITY
• Teams require to prioritize the motions in the heading
• Only one motion applied in each rounde.g. 1 1 1 2 1 2 1 3
2 2 2 3 2 1 2 2 3 3 3 1 3 3 3 1
• Note: put the motion you like the most in the top of the order to the least motion you like
5. CASEBUILDING
CASEBUILDING• All teams have 20 minutes to case build.• Each speaker has 5 minutes to speak, max. 5’20’’.
Beyond than that you will not be listened [Penalized].
• Points of Information (POI) are allowed after 1st minute to 4th minute. POIs duration is 15 seconds.
• The speaker has right to reject or accept the POI. However, POIs’ are urged in this system.
• POIs are allowed to be given to the Substantial Speakers not Reply Speaker
CASEBUILDING
• No electronic devices and any help from other people except the member of the team during case building time
• Printed materials are allowed during case building time, BUT not in podium
• No offensive words and No personal attacks [Say dark skin instead of Negro]
6. SCORE SYSTEM
SCORE SYSTEM
• MANNER: 35%It’s about body gesture, we perform public speaking skills. Not too fast, too slow, too loud or too soft.
• MATTER: 45%It’s about content of your arguments. Relevant case, valid facts, and logic reasons.
• METHOD: 20%It’s about the way you deliver your arguments. Sign posting, clarity and understandable explanations.
RANGE SCORE• 68 = Stone• 69 = Greetings and say No / Yes as well as unnecessary words• 70 – 71 = Un-well structured, no rebuttal (miss targeted), many rooms still
can be improved. Very least development of cases. Little to no relevant of argument. (Frog)
• 72 – 73 = Weak rebuttal, un-effective way of speech. But have focus and relevancy toward the motion, but BOP remains questioned.
• 74 = More relevant, but still have some jumping logics. There is an attempt to explain BOP, BUT lack of link back to the
motion• 75 = AVERAGE. Overall is good. Role speaker has
been fulfilled. BOP has been answered BUT lack of minor details elaborations.
• 76 - 77 = Above average. Lot of solid points, effective speech, sharp and clear rebuttal and argument, but still have some of thin argument still exists.
• 78 - 79 = Very good. Only slight points that should be tightened, great POI and rebuttals, and solid reasoning (Relevant, effective, direct, significant).
• 80 - above = Imam Mahdi
MARGIN• The total score of the winning team subtracts the total score of the losing team in one round. At the end
of the preliminary rounds, this margin will be accumulated.• Example:
PM : 75 LO : 73DPM : 73 DLO : 74GW : 75 OW : 75Reply : 36 Reply : 35Total : 259 Total : 257Margin : 2 Margin : -2
• Explanation of margin in each round:– 1 - 3 : Close Debate– 4 - 6 : Close to Clear– 6 - 9 : Clear Debate– 9 – 12: Very Clear– >12 : Frog vs Obama
7. MATCH UP SYSTEM
MATCH UP SYSTEM• 1st Preliminary Round: Random Order• 2nd & 3rd Preliminary Round: Break and Slide System
– Victory Point : Win = 1 ; Lose = 0– Team Score : Total score of 1st – Reply Speaker– Margin : Win = Positive number (1,2,3, etc.) ;
Lose = Negative Number (-1,-2,-3, etc.)
• Elimination Round: Power Match System 8 Breaking Teams: 1st breaking vs 8th breaking, 2nd breaking vs 7th breaking, 3rd breaking vs 6th
breaking, 4th breaking vs 5th breaking Semifinal : (winner of 1st vs 8th) vs (winner of 4th vs 5th) , (winner of 2nd vs 7th) vs (winner of 3rd vs
