Congratulations! CityU debating team wins runner-up at the 5th debate competition among Macao universities

 

The fifth Chinese debate competition among Macao universities, was recently held at the Macao Science Center, jointly organized by the Macao Basic Law Youth Ambassador Promotion Association and the Macao Speech and Debate Association. The debating team of City University of Macau (CityU), with solid theoretical knowledge, excellent team coordination, and outstanding on-the-spot performance, advanced through all rounds and won the runner-up prize in the Mandarin category. The CityU debating team had won the championship and runners-up in the Cantonese group in previous competitions. This award is the team’s third trophy from this event, fully demonstrating the comprehensive strength of the debating team.

 

In the final of the Mandarin group, four debating team members, Zhang Ruiying, Tian Xinya, Luo Shiqi, and Shen Yuhan, competed against the team from Macao Polytechnic University. Throughout the contest, the teammates supported each other, complemented each other’s strengths, and made progress. Among them, Zhang Ruiying was awarded the “Outstanding Debater”.

 

The participating students expressed that this competition not only demonstrated the spirit of the CityU debating team, but also deepened their own understanding of the Constitution and the Basic Law. They expressed gratitude to CityU for its long-standing great support, as well as to their senior teammates for their guidance, and to the team members for their tacit cooperation and dedication for rigorous training. It was this joint effort that led to their excellent performance on stage. Looking ahead, the CityU debating team will take this opportunity to continue showcasing the talents of CityU students in various competitions, and contribute to passing on the spirit of critical thinking and promoting knowledge of the Constitution and the Basic Law.
