A Motivating Workshop by Tan Saw Bee, ACG!!!

Dear Toastmasters

A Motivating Workshop byTan Saw Bee, ACG!!!

We have witnessed a wonderful and motivating workshop by Tan Saw Bee on 12/9/2011.

In her workshop, we have been guided by Saw Bee on “How to handle objections”? We have learnt how to respond tactfully and positively especially when our members said,”

I can’t do my speech because…”

I can’t take up role because…”

I can’t be an Exco because…”


5 powerful steps Method:-

Step 1 Restate and Clarify

Step 2 Acknowledge

Step 3 Any other Concerns

Step 4 Get & make Commitment

Step 5 Action


Saw Bee, We love you so much. Your commitment to Crystal is really amazing, awesome and fabulous.

The Toastmastersof the evening was Joann Gam, CC. She did her maiden role as TME. Well Done! Joann.

2 assignment speakers:-

1st Speaker, Ogy Ong: Project #6. Title: Choice

She shared with us on “Life is full of Choice”. You can choose to be happy or not to be. Everything is in the state of your mind. She was evaluated by Kuok Sum

2nd Speaker, Yeo Yoke Bee, CC. Advance Manual in Humorously Speaking #5. Title: A new life.

Yoke Bee spoke on a new life after menopause. This topic was really so appropriate in a Ladies; Club. There were so much laughter in the room that could burst the intestines! Not to mention that there were three gentlemen (guest in the room) with us.

We have 4 guests for the night, 3 toastmasters ie, G Sivalingam, Kuok Sum and Jonathon Moh. Saw Bee’s friend, Penny was also there to join us for the first time. We would like to say thank you for your gracious presence to the Club and hope that one day you will be able to join us as a member.

Lastly, congratulations to all in having another successful 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 Matilda emerged in   “Green”  on table topic session. S
