Club Meeting - 080811

Bravo to President Emily Bong for the unique, value for money and delicious steamboat meeting on 8 August 2011. We had this special meeting at Mutiara Palace Restaurant, Bandar Utama (high class ambience, low rate ever !)


Our Toastmasters of the evening was Lee Mei Foong, ACB ALB. She has waited for a long 13 months (as President is exempted from role play) to be assigned with this precious role. A job well done to Mei Foong for taking up the challenge to play 2 roles as the Organizing Chair for our 14th Installation and TME within the same week.

We have 3 assignment speakers for the night:-

1) Yeo Yoke Bee, CTM tickled our funny bones with her Humorous Speech Project 4 # Keep Them Laughing with speech titled “Life is ….?”

2) Ogy Ong, TM, a determined new kids on the block, aggressively doing her CC assignments in each meeting . Bravoooooo…..Ogy. She spoke on “Echo of Life” from her CC Project #4 How To Say It.

3) Irene Lee, ACB ALB spoke to us on “Trust Planning” from Public Relation Project #2 – The Radio Talk Show . It was such an interesting, insightful and informative talk. We have a clearer, better understanding on what trust, wills and financial planning is all about. I was persuaded to set up my will after listening to her speech.

Another achievement of the night ……….was by Julie Lee, TM. She took up the challenge to be SAA. She spoke confidently and well prepared for her maiden role in the Club. Bravo, Julie !! Continue your courage to play more and more role to build up your stage confiendnce. I am sure you will love to be on stage after a few trials.

My gratitude goes to Madam President, Emily Bong, CC for looking out for us such a wonderful place for meeting, dinner and fellowship. It was a wonderful meeting !

Lastly, thank you to all the attendees and role players (in the meeting) to make this a successful meeting.

Next meeting on 22 August 2011 is the term 1st contest for Humourous and Evaluation contests. Come and witness the great speakers on stage !

The theme “Moving Forward” is to motivate the members to progress or advance further in our journey of toast mastering. The Toastmaster Of The Evening, Emily Bong, ACB, ALB, had early on before the meeting, blast out an email, “ Are you  moving  forward  to  equip  yourself to be a  better mentor?" Our honorable Brand Strategist Speaker’s, Jon Tan, DTM, had tailor made a “Mini Mentoring Workshop” in this meeting. In this workshop, he talks about how to be an effective mentor and the benefits of being a coach, mentor or mentee. It also explore on defining vision plan and mentoring scope.

As the quote goes, “ A picture say a thousand word “, as shown below.           Everyone was so engrossed in the meeting !!   ...

Crystal TMC Meeting Keynotes 26th May 2014

“LET IT GO…………………LET IT GO…………………” In life, sometimes we harbour bitter and unpleasant feelings about someone or a disagreement; we allow such guilt or grief to be embedded in our hearts. Life goes on, just face the world, let it go and  let bygones be bygones . So ladies, set yourselves free, be someone who you want to be. Dress and look the way you like. From now on, transform and move forward with confidence and  RISE  like the break of  DAWN. A big applause to our ever energetic and confident TME, CC Tammy Lim for bringing in the idea of  “Let It Go.” Our Humour master CTM ATMB Carolyn Wong let go her first blast by standing on stage with her yellow  “wigs”  and act like a  “crown” . The laughter erupted even before she utter the first sentence. Obviously, a good beginning makes a good ending. Most of us burst into laughing    tears  upon watching and hearing her jokes. Well done Carolyn Wong. ​ Datin M...

The Power of You - 13 April, 2020

THE POWER OF YOU by: Dr. Elaine Loo Every member in our society is valuable and necessary for our society’s progress, just like every part of the body plays an important function. We tend to think certain parts of the body being not as important – but actually we need every part equally. It’s only when each part of the body is respected and treated with care that the whole body remains healthy and can grow well. I had a friend who had the appendix removed due to an infection. “It does not have an important function. It’s ok.”    he said. “ For the past few decades, conventional medicine believed the appendix was an unimportant organ and served very little function. Emerging evidence is painting a strikingly different picture. It turns out that the appendix play a vital function in the development of the immune system,” said my friend who is a doctor. Similarly in our society, each and every member is an essential part to the health of the whole nat...
