Not only did Past President Mustafa dazzled us with his resplendent Baju

Melayu outfit, we were pleasantly surprised by the numerous guests who joined

us.

In his Presidential speech, Piras explained to us the practical aspect of

the skills he has learnt as a Toastmaster. The preparation for his daily 5

minutes speech to his team members is no longer a mammoth task he struggles

with, thanks to his Toastmasters training.

In the “Open Evaluation” session, a practice that we have observed from

MAICSA Toastmasters meetings, everyone is provided with the opportunity to

provide feedback, especially those not assigned evaluator roles. Guest Radika

was eloquent and delivered her speech confidently. She certainly has the

makings of an evaluator. We also had constructive feedback from Yoga, Mustafa

and Piras.

Friendship on Tues 7 Sept 2010

For our Enriching Your Life meeting, TME Tony started the evening with an

apt reminder that many of us have become better leaders, managers, salesman,

entrepreneurs and CEOs because of one man – Dr. Ralph C. Smedley. Our lives

have been enriched (Word of the Day) because of our Toastmasters training

programs and the benefits we have gained from it.

In the Evaluation Session, for the first time, we also tried out “Open

Evaluation”. Chee Hoe, Tony and Sivadas took the opportunity to enriched our

meeting with their feedback.

The first Friendship 2010 recipients for the Half-CC Ribbons are Chee

Hoe, Vincent and Alexandra who have completed more than 5 speeches in the

Competent Communication manual. Lay Theng was also awarded an Ice Breaker

ribbon. Well done to our hard-working members who are diligently working on

their CC manuals!

KPMG on Wed 8 Sept 2010

It was a meeting you should not have missed if you wanted to know how to be a

millionaire in 2 years’ time! Krystle shared with us “Learning from T. Harr

Eker” for her Get To The Point speech. It was informative, well-researched

and a subject that everyone was interested in.
