Prepared Motions

Dear fellow debaters of IVED 2011,

We have finally arrived a month prior to IVED UNHAS 2011. The A-team have gone
through countless discussions to ensure that all of the motions are fair,
challenging, accessible, thus we are confident that the next IVED UNHAS will
generate great debates throughout the whole tournament. The A-team will make
sure that such fairness will be reflected for impromptu motions as well.

The next IVED provides a new experience by the existence Novice Break System. It
is a system that appreciates young talent thriving their way to the national
debating scene. As a consequence of having semis and a grand final for Novice
break we have 2 additional headings compared to previous IVEDs. There will be a
total of 12 headings.

We guarantee the secrecy of impromptu motions hence it will be determined in
discretion of the A team at the day of competition. This method will prevent any
chance of leak outs before the competition.

Directly to the point, Here are the 5 prepared motions for the tournament:

FAMILY
Assuming technological feasibility, THW allow parents to alter the genes of
their children to determine their sexual orientation

THW ban all forms of artificial reproduction technologies (IVF, surrogates,
sperm banks, etc.) to force couples to adopt
THW pay the poor not to have children

INDONESIA
TH refuses to directly elect Yogyakarta’s governor
THBT building religious house of worships should not require authorization from
the government
THW strip off all the wealth of high-profile corruptors, regardless of the
actual amount of money they corrupt

SAME-SEX
THW subsidize child stories authors to create more homosexual heroes & heroines
THBT gay communities should 'out' gay public figures
TH opposes the repealing of Don't Ask Don't Tell

INTERNATIONAL SECURITY
THBT the US should launch a military intervention to Congo against the Lord’s
Resistance Army
THBT the Mexican government should let international forces in to oppose drug
cartels
THBT the UN should offer large bounties for the capture or the destruction of
pirate ships in Somalia

ENVIRONMENT
THBT the Cancun results have brought us nowhere
THBT developed countries should offer asylum to refugees of small-island
developing states that are displaced due to climate change
THW criminalize those who deny that climate-change is man-made

We expect mind blowing principles, impacts, and unorthodox arguments from
debaters thus we recommend all of you to utilize your time and research
effectively! As that is one of the spirit of Australasian Parliamentary, solid
research for a solid case!

See you in the IVED UNHAS 2011!

On behalf of the Adjudication Team,

IVED 2011: Change of Adjudication Core Member

The following is the message from IVED UNHAS Adjudication Core:

========================================

Fellow indodebaters,

Warm greetings to you all.

Straight to the point of this email, we would like to inform you that the IVED adjudication core had to recently make a regrettable, but necessary, decision; a change of the core member.

Due to an impossibly difficult situation, we have consentually agreed to replace Ms. Dewi Wijayanti (UI) in the A-core. The reasons of her leaving is very important and is closely related to her personal career. We understand how a change of A-core should be taken as a last resort and that the reason behind the decision must be based on something of utmost importance, and we assure you that it was.

To replace Wijay, we have decided to enlist Mr. Ahmad Naufal Da'i. The decision was based on, obviously, capability, experience, and the fact that Naufal can represent the specific debating community Wijay represented in the A-core plus the younger generations.

Naufal is an eligible candidate based on the constitution, and we believe his exploits and achievements in the national scene has earned him a legitimate place in the A-core of a national tournament.

We assure you that this decision is not a hasty or immature decision. Careful thinking and deliberation, also adjustments, were done to ensure that we can provide you the best and memorable debating experience in the following competition.

Thank you.

On behalf of the adjudication core.
