IR 3POL3 Debate

Read on the topic of the new Japanese security bill, and expansion of armed forces.  Also read Japanese Constitution Article 9.

We need six volunteers for tomorrow morning.

Debate format:  Asian Parliamentary

Motion is:  "This house will prevent Japan's expansion of military role in Asia.."

This is a thematic motion.  Meaning, the text "this house" needs to be set by the government.  E.g.  China will prevent Japan's expansion of military role in Asia".  Pls be sure not to "squirrel", which means, defining "this house" in such a way that the motion becomes undebatable.

You may form your own teams.

Post your triad on the comment along with your chosen side (government or opposition).

First to post reserves the side.  E.g. a group of students posts their names and chose OPPOSITION.

Next group has to be government.

BEST DEBATER gets a souvenir from Cambodia.

This will be a practice round.  But depending on the performance, a student or group can be exempted on the next rounds.
