One has grown accustomed to expect inspiring speeches from VPE Piras. Today was not an exception as his Presidential speech motivated us to be prepared to change anytime, all the time. By being willing to change whenever the opportunity arises, we will soar like an eagle.
After that, graceful (word of the day) and gracious TME Joriah took over the meeting proceedings.
It was Datin Josephine’s second visit and she did not hesitate to take part in Table Topics, along with Mustafa, Piras, Sotimin and Loke. For his brave volunteers, Table Topics Master Khif had prepared questions about MRT, riots and food hygiene.

Humour Master Piras has us in laughter with his jokes about Winston Churchill, the notoriously late trains in India and a police patrol car.
After that, we were listening intently to Project speaker Sotimin’s tale of a house with a garden. His evaluator Mustafa praised him for using a story-telling method and choosing vivid, descriptive words that helped us to visualize the house and the beautiful garden.

For our “Serve with Passion” meeting, VPE Chee Hoe performed the Induction ceremony for our new members Sean Lee and Sylvia Tan. Our General Evaluator Jon Tan from TTDI Toastmasters Club, found it to be well conducted and praised VPE Chee Hoe for a job well done.

Table Topics Master Sylvia provided us with a hilarious Table Topics Session with her “continue the story” approach about a passionate boy named Daniel who wanted to learn violin at the age of 15. She had five capable speakers namely Freddie, Ben, Susan, Ian and Kwok Hung who spun magic (and much laughter) with their story-telling skills involving an orphanage, and iPad, Wang Lee Hom and Malaysian Idol !

KPMG KL on Sat 27 Aug 2011
We had two children as guests for this meeting and Table Topics Master Suresh tried his best to cajole our two young guests to try out Table Topics. In a hilarious twist, their father Mr. Siew, a partner at KPMG, gamely gave us his opinion on how to make Malaysia a better place, after his young son volunteered him for Table Topics !
We had another round of laughter when our young guest reminded Amanda, “There are children here” during her presentation of her award-winning “Don’t hang up, laugh!” speech.
With two Ice Breaker speeches from Steven and Chin Wei, we learnt about “Mr. Pricy” and student life in New Zealand.

It was a morning well spent at KPMG when Min On, an excellent evaluator, gave his closing speech on how to apply what we learnt at Toastmasters meeting to break the ice with clients, demonstrate our competencies and convince our clients that we are the right person to get the job done.
