Meeting on 12 April 2010

Dear Indrahanians,

Whenever I visit other Toastmasters clubs, I always come across this spirit of cooperation and ‘can do’ attitude. If any role player is unable to come to the meeting at last minute notice, somebody who is present will always be willing to take over the role. Our Indrahanians are always up to this spirit.

And so we had Jen coming in to help us out in a role at the last minute, & she even brought a guest, considering that we haven’t been seeing her at meetings for a few months. Dom stepped in to ensure we didn’t miss out on any humour that night. And Prez Han readily conducted the Induction for Philip.

So thanx to all members who stepped in to save the night, and needed no inducement (INDUCE was the word of the day).

On this night we had an ice breaker speech by Philip who is definitely a confident speaker. With some finetuning here & there, he’ll have the makings of a speech contest winner.
We also had Victor going for gold as he did a monologue to Spiderman – this was really unusual as we all expected a heavy drama coming up but it turned out to be a comic-based character! By the way, Victor is in the process of getting his ACG within 10 days. Meaning, he’s doing 10 advanced speeches in 10 days! Let’s wish him all the best on his jet plane journey.

As we had extra time since we only had 2 assignment speeches, we had 7 table topic speakers. And all of them achieved a very high standard with their impromptu speeches. I felt that this was in part due to the interesting & challenging topics prepared by Choi Woon. So thx to Choi Woon.

As for the Table Topic winner, the award went to … (drum roll, pls) … Philip! See what I mean about his potential as a winning speaker?

So come around for our next meeting to enjoy the show!

May all great blessings come your way.

Kind rgds,

Kay Wong
VPE 2009/2010

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....
