The President of Phoenix, witty Encik Hafiz started the meeting with boundless energy, highimpact and high-power opening speech to welcome the guests, especially the girls from Crystals……It was like opening the floodgate to a lot of ‘excitements’ that is coming…….. It was a fantastic get-together of fun, learning and not forgetting the yummy Indian food specially catered for the meeting. Being the 1st day of school that day, yet there was not any tell-tale sign in the attendance! Maybe it could be the power of attraction of the good food. Ha ha What more?

For the first time in ages, Crystal Toastmasters Club had the meeting conducted in full women attendance. Even the only opposite sex, DTM Sivalingam, the supposedly General Evaluator had also to turn us down due to an urgent matter.

We learn from the speeches and from the fellow members. In Crystals, we should never, never, never stop learning…. Even the Table Topic Speakers gave their ALL to further...
