Meeting on 24 Nov

Dear Indrahanians

Greetings to you.

Do you ever wish that you could do with a bit of relaxing after a hard day's work? Sure, you could go drinking or partying or have dinner with friends. Or you could go to a play, or a comedy show - but then you'd have to pay a hefty sum for it.

Well, you could just have come to our Toastmasters meeting last Tuesday on 8 Dec & you'd have had a whole night of belly laughs & learning, that would have cost you almost nothing!

Do you know, we had so many DTMs (Fong Ming, LeAnn, Dom & Dr Devi) & past Presidents (I'm sorry, I can't even keep count with all my fingers!) on that night - it was unbelieveable. In fact, there were so many high-flying members, they were quite unruly & dominating. The SAA (your truly, who had to stand in for Jenny) had to use the gavel persistently to call the room to order.

That's for starters. We had 4 guests, 3 of whom were thanks to Koon Kow. One of them was even game to take part in Table Topics.

I loved the way Koon Low conducted his TT session - it had a theme & he conducted it snappily. The whole session went on so smoothly.

And if you were not there, what you'd have missed most would have been the humour. We had humour almost the whole night long.

Our guest Victor (who replaced May at the last minute) gave us funny tips on how to keep slim, from his advanced manual on Humour.

Our Prez Han gave us serious implications on the lack of sleep, but when he advised that the bed should only be for sleep and only sleep - there was mayhem! Everybody demanded to know where would you then do 'it' (SRP decorum does not allow me to mention the 's_ _' word). Which then raised a lot of suggestions from the floor - like the bathroom, dining room, living room, kitchen sink (remember the movie 'Fatal Attraction'?), etc, etc - everyone's imagination was working overtime.

Whoa! What a ruckus from all the ex-Presidents & DTMs.

Hahaha. Oh, what a night.

May all great blessings come your way.

Message from the Division Governor

Good day to all of you.   T here was once myself and NJ Singam (past  convention   organizing  Chair) went to one of the local bank to close the  convention  bank account. When we went to the counter, we informed the officer about the matter and she handed us 2 forms for us to initial it. Then she obtained our Identification Card for verification. Just within 4 minutes, the officer handed us the remaining balance and told us that, the account was closed. It was a total contrast, if we compared with opening a bank account, where we had to fill few forms, go through few  verification  and approvals prior to opening an account. The entire process took almost 2.5hours compared to closure of account which lasted only for 5 minutes.     We often forget or never ponder on the  initiator  of the club and their sacrifice &  hard work  to charter the club and we just need a single sheet of paper to close a ...

Updates from TI

February 2013 Board Meeting The 2012-2013 Board of Directors will meet February 22-23, 2013, in Southern California. The Board held its first in-person meeting after the convention in August. Since that time, the Board's committees have met virtually, focusing on topics that support the 2010 Strategic Plan. These virtual meetings have reduced the amount of time Board members need to spend at in-person meetings . This year's February Board meeting schedule has been reduced to two days. Following the completion of the meeting, the results of the discussions will be shared in writing on the Toastmasters International website instead of at a public board briefing or through streaming video. The meeting will be shorter and less expensive, however, the reporting will still be provided in a timely manner. Members can visit the Toastmasters International website to see the results of the Board meeting on February 25 and the ILC officer nomination results on February 23....
