I came to Denmark a november morning 2015, where I landed in Billund Airport.
– I moved into an apartment in Odense, and the town was and is my favorite city – I love Odense, and its streets and alleys, and I will at any time try to remain and live in Odense.
– After two months of stay, I got a letter from the municipality of Odense that I should start the integration programme, and thus participate in language training.
– I was very excited and enthusiastic, and I began to come to school on time and I began to speak a little Danish, a week after effectively.
– Two weeks after I was tested linguistically, and thus I was moved to another class, along with some who have been at language school for three months – it went pretty fast.
so begins Mohamad, debater, and gymnasielev, an op-ed for the nation! about his first years in Denmark, and the fine title as the best debater he goes after. You may know Mohamad from the debate-bombs as Mohamad on rapes and crime: Look however at the statistics (738 komnentarer), Figures nicely: Mohamad got to know that he should ’take home (714 comments)’ and Mohamad: a Sofa and cash assistance (536 comments) and now he can tell that he has been selected for the DMi debate, although he really would have been a police officer: His speech continues as follows:
– A day in the canteen, came two young people in the chief fights. The police arrived to solve the problem, but it happened to me, something powerful.
– I began to imagine myself as a police officer, who solves the problems, and I got the idea that I should be a police officer.
– Such a job requires that you speak Danish fluently, and I fought to be able to speak, read and write Danish.
– Eight months after I had the opportunity to come in 10 class and after a month in 10 class I got the school’s best grade in mathematics.
When I was close to completing the 10 class, held the police academy entrance exam, and I volunteered me, as I had prepared myself well both physically and linguistically (that is both fysiskprøve and language test and other tests in the police).
– I have passed everything and I could clear everything, but I was really sad when the female cop said that I can’t get on, as I am not a Danish citizen. the
so far there have been 14 posts in the newspapers
– When I completed the 10 grade, I came in on HF, and I began to be a political activist, and I began to be included in the debates, and I began to write until one day I got an idea to write messages to the media.
– Until now I published 14 posts in the newspaper Politiken, Kristeligt Dagblad, Weekendavisen, Ekstra Bladet, Jyllands-posten, and several local newspapers, and I continue to write without getting tired.
about a month ago, wrote Politiken so a lookup on a competition to be ’the best debater’.
– And I got a message from a journalist from the Danish newspaper Politiken, who writes, that I am chosen for the competition, and thus it may be that I am the best debater.
– All the efforts I have made in the past three years, because I love Denmark. And that is why I am grateful to the Denmark took me in. writes Mohamad, who you can meet at one of the preliminary rounds in the national championship in debate, to be held in the Press at the Rådhushuspladsen d. 14. and d. 21. may.
