2011 Macau UADC - Quarters motions, Semis teams

The crowd at the 2011 Macau UADC waited with bated breath at the University of Macau Cultural Centre last night as the results of the quarters were announced by the A-Core:

By a 4-1 split, UPD1 won over DLSU1

By a 4-1 split, UPD triumphed over NTU1

By a split decision, NUS2 defeated Ateneo 1

By a unanimous decision, NUS1 won over UT Mara 1

The draw for the semis will be a treat to all debate enthusiasts:

NUS1 v NUS2

UPD1 v UPD2

with the grand final match-up an uncontestably high-calibre battle between NUS and UPD.

In the EFL category, Bakrie University, BIPEDS, LSPR and IPB won their respective matches against opponents from Indonesia, China, Japan, and Thailand to secure an all-Indonesian semis and finals. 

Bakrie will face IPB, whilst BIPEDS will battle LSPR in the semis today.

Here were the motions for the quarters: 

M1 - THW make the raising of business and labour standards a pre-requisite for developmental aid.

M2 - THW punish financial institutions who fail to maintain liquidity in situations of market fluctuation.

M3 - THW discard tourism-reliant economic strategies. 

Thanks to Andrew W Sadeli (BIPEDS) for the updates, and Jozef Thenu (LSPR) for the motions!
