WELCOME! : WORLD OF DEBATE

Truth.lies.fact.fiction..It is the ear-kissing arguments of a debate that never seems to fail in distinguishing them amongst each other, in differentiating the truth from lies; drawing that fine line to separate fact from fiction, and hopefully in the fog where voices ceaselessly struggle to be heard, the ostensible truth of the disputed matter will prevail.

GREETINGS to YOU!;) from all of us at the official blog of TAYLORS COLLEGE DEBATE CLUB. As we usher the thrilling year of 2010 ahead of us, TCDC will be having a line of intriguing yet mind-stimulating events and activities in raising confident, versatile as well as sharp-witted individuals to uphold the prestigious name of Taylor's College, the creme de la creme.
