Voice of Indrahanians - Alice @ Indrahana

Standing alone to give a talk had me madly petrified

Thoughts of home assignments torment, I felt terrified

Ten long years since lapsed and realization sets in

My confidence and leadership skills were totally missing !


The search for good clean fun begins

My priority for mind fitness goes beyond the shin

Fully aware that before dementia sets in

Find a club to direct my senses reigns supreme


Which club? – I have to seriously select

Indrahana 2 decades old, earns my due respect

Where camaraderie attitudes every member project

Great values and charming friends just seems perfect


Indrahana - like family members take good care

Every experience is gleefully shared

Good cheer and laughter fills the air

My journey onwards a wondrous toasting affair


I must confess - my icebreaker was not one

First speech shook me, made my mind undone

Evaluator mindful words well crafted finely spun

My mission towards CTM goal thus begun


My journey was fun and made swift

And I earn a CTM, my first rewarding gift

ATM bronze and silver follow like a breeze

Boost my confidence to all time lift!


I consider Indrahana the second home

Where Queen’s English dreams are truly hone

Great champions of Indrahana do set the tone

Be shining stars for Indrahanians to clone


Welcome to Indrahana - where age does not matter.

With longevity there’s wisdom and good chatter


Come enjoy the thrill of claps, and witty cheer

Savour Indrahana magic through the years !


Alice Ong ACS, CL

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....
