1) Why I join the Toastmasters Club?
To improve my speaking and leadership skills.

2) Why Taman Indranana?
The members are friendly, helpful and genuine and not forgetting the sense of humour.

3) My most memorable exprerience in the Toastmasters club.
Attending Penang Convention with my fellow club members

4) Share with us your feelings when delivering your Ice Breaker.
A bit nervous while trying to remember the script.

Do your best in every speech assignment or role play and to serve as club officer.

  1. I thought I will write something - so that your blog is updated! I have already attended two of your last meetings as a visiting Toastmaster and I have enjoyed them immensely. A "happy" club atmosphere prevails and their members are approachable, friendly and really down-to-earth! Definitely, a 5-star Club!

    Every time, I visit your club - I will post something in my own blog - so that all my readers will know how great a club you are! U can always check me out at helpvictor.blogspot.com

I have often found her to be an interesting humorist – there’s something about her I cannot put my finger on. Perhaps it’s that gleaming sparkle in her eyes? Or her mirthful demeanor?
