Toastmasters' 90th Anniversary Celebration Meeting on 14th October 2014

On the last Tuesday, we have celebrate the Toastmasters' 90th Anniversary. For your information, Toastmasters International was established in 1924 ~



It was a fun and educative meeting! Toastmasters of the Evening, Yeoh Cheng Lim kick started the meeting by sharing with us the history and background of Toastmasters International. The highlight and the uniqueness of this meeting was we featured heavyweight role players to show case the strength and spirit of Indrahanians! From toastmasters of the evening, table topic evaluator, speech evaluators, table topic master, humour master, Ah ounter and timer, all roles were played by senior members such as Yeoh, Chrristine, LeAnn, Ho Fong Ming, KK Ng, Mustzah, Lim Thian Seng, Siew Peng, Alice Ong and Dr Devi (name listed in no particular order). We were honoured to have Past International President, John Lau to give us an invocation to inspire the members and guests during the meeting. There were a total of 9 past presidents of our club among our midst on that day! This is the spirit and support rendered by the seniors - the backbone of the club!  

Lakhmichand, MA, DTM or aka Lucky was the General Evaluator. Thank you Lucky for agreeing to be our general evaluator :) I have learned a lot from you through this meeting. You have shared valuable information to me on how to prepare a better agenda and access to TI for free manuals! Thank you!

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....
