preliminary round, for example, are: the violation of human rights in Egypt,
the best education system in the world, "quick - count” dilemma during the
election in 2014 in Indonesia, the endless conflict in Gaza.
If
you go t semi-final round, you will be asked to perform news reading and
weather forecast prepared by the committee.

the red card is shown. Participants are free to improvise.

the manuscript should not contain SARA news. It also should contain 5W1H
aspects.
