Emily Bong, IPP and Ng Siew Tho, President 2012/2013
Friday 29th June, at Havana Tropicana was a significant once a year event where Emily Bong, our now Immediate Past President (IPP) shared the success story behind Crystal Toastmaster Club.

Our 2011/2012 theme "Commit With Passion" was successfully fulfilled. We started strong and finished strong. The Crystals had certainly lived up to the standard and making Crystal’s flag flying high in Division B" said the beaming Emily.



Bravo to the 2011/2012 Exco Team
The Crystals and guests got together to rekindle fellowship, celebrated the club’s success and witnessed the installation of the new 2012/2013 Exco team. Emily Bong, IPP passed her gavel to our Newly Elected President, Ng Siew Tho and wished her success in leading the Club to greater heights.

Ng Siew Tho, started her journey with Crystal Toastmaster in February 2007 with the desire to learn and excel to become a better communicator. Not only she accomplished her desire, she also ended up dedicating herself in various Exco roles from SAA, Treasurer, Secretary, VPPR, VPE and through her dedication and commitment, she courageously took up the new challenge as President.

Her last 5 years as a committed toastmaster through her perseverance and devotion, saw her transformation from ordinary to extraordinary.

Siew Tho, in her maiden presidential speech, pledged “Together with my new team, and using our Club as the platform for Crystals to shine to the brightest, we will fulfill the Club’s vision where ‘women rewrite their destiny’. Our new term theme "Commit To Excellence" says it all. She believes that once we commit to achieve excellence with our body, mind and soul, it can be accomplished collectively as One.”

Irene Lee, who was the Parliamentarian officiated the installation of the new term club officers by ensuring they understood their new roles and responsibilities and that they took an oath for their new appointed roles.

The officers installed are:

All the best to 2012/2013 'Commit To Excellence' Exco Team

Our Master of Ceremony, Low Laychi who possessed the ability to roll with the punches, did a fabulous job in conducting the entire event. 

Everyone enjoyed the special performance from the beautiful singer Eva Lim, who was the semi finalist of Astro Classic Golden Melody Contest, this really spiced up the event.




The scene then turned into a dancing party where all the Crystals and guests had so much fun dancing and catching up with each other.

The ceremony ends with everyone holding hands, singing to the tune of the meaningful song
"If We Hold On Together".


The event ended in high spirit and confidence that Crystal will continue to soar under the new leadership.

Cheers to another greater year!

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” .

Well done Carolyn Wong. ​ Datin M...

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.

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...
