Maliki National Debate Tournament (MANDATE) is an annual event of Advanced Debate Community to open and widen the opportunity of all Islamic universities’ students in Indonesia to be able to compete each other in English debate. The first MANDATE was held in 2014 and it got good responses from the participants. As for its aim, the competition facilitates the students to practice and improve their debating skill which, for some of them, are still not good enough. Hopefully, after participating in the tournament, they will be inspired to develop both of their English and analytic skills. For those reasons, MANDATE is held annually and will be continued to keep the sense of competition in developing language skills in all Islamic universities of Indonesia.
