Oligopoly

There was controversy in the latest game of Oligopoly at the Wisma Bahasa English Division. Oligopoly is a brilliant business strategy game in which players try to amass the most assets from buying and selling property and exercising political power. It was designed and developed by Wisma Bahasa's teachers and every time it is played it is quite a big event for all involved. The latest game saw native speaker Adrian Coen destroy his opponents with a comfortable win while at the same time acting as the students' mentor, teacher and business advisor.


Yuan finished with $10,400,000

It is rumoured that the controversy may result in the Wisma Bahasa moving to a different building in the near future. Oligopoly commentators have pointed out that Adrian wasn't facing heavyweight Oligopolists Prima and Fajar, who have many big wins under their belts, and so his victory last night against students Erdi and Diana, and Wisma teacher Yuan. "This doesn't really count for much in the real world," said one Wisma insider close to Prima.


Erdi finished with $11,650,000

Adrian dismissed these comments. "We played 33 Rounds in two and a half hours. I had the game sewn up by Round 20 or 22. Nobody realized I had so many silver balls in my soup bowl. I was awesome. Prima and Fajar's publicity people are just playing mind games ahead of the big teachers' game which will take place sometime in the next fortnight."


Diana finished with $13,900,000


Adrian finished with $17,970,000
