The Toastmasters 2009/2010 term is coming to an end and we will be embarking on a brand new term on 1 July 2010. Before this term ends, I would like to record my sincere thanks and appreciation, in particular, to three hard-working, dedicated and talented Toastmasters of Area W7.
Area W7 Governor Tan Lay Theng
Thank you Lay Theng, for the learning opportunity as your Assistant Area Governor Marketing. With this role, I have progressed from being a Friendship club member to visiting clubs in Area W7 and helping out with Division W events. It has been a life-changing journey and it all started with a question from you whether I would like to consider taking up the Assistant Area Governor post.
The qualities that you have - not just doing a job but doing it well, your humility, your ability to encourage and motivate me to try out new things that I didn’t know I was capable of doing, are qualities that I admire and hope to someday emulate.
Thank you for being our exemplary Area Governor, fellow Friendship member and for being a perfect example of - A friend helping friends to succeed – our Friendship theme.
Assistant Area Governor Training & Education Lee Soo Ling
Thank you Soo Ling, for organizing the impromptu joint meeting between Friendship and Ireka in November last year. It was a good opportunity for both our club members to get to know each other better as fellow Area W7 clubs.
As fellow Assistant Area Governors, we have worked together on Division W Winning Speech Forum, ISTT and Area W7 ISTT. In March we started on our challenging new roles as club mentor and sponsor for Maybank, the newest club in Division W.
I am glad that we will continue to work together in the coming term, moving on from serving Area W7 to serving Division W.
Area Public Relations Officer Lai Chee Yoong
Last but not least, thank you Chee Yoong, the creator of our Area W7 Blog. It is a well-designed blog and has impressed many Toastmasters, inclusive of our Area W7 club members of KPMG and ING. They only require minimal persuasion to do a write-up about their club meetings when I suggested that our Area blog could do with some club updates.
Friendship and Exact ADC had two collaborations for this term. The first one was the enriching interview session with our humorous Immediate Past District Governor Joseph Gomez. We then had our first joint meeting in February of this year. It will not be our last joint meeting as I am sure we can and we will have many more fruitful collaboration in the coming term.
