Meeting on 10 November 2009

Dear Indrahanians,

Greetings to you.

During our above meeting on 10 Nov, we almost had a speech marathon. We had 4 wonderful assigned speeches to learn from - tips on anti-burglary, advice on financial management, ask your own self for all the answers you need, & how to handle a radio talk show.

Each of the speaker spoke so well, that I'm sure it was a tough choice for all of us when it came to choosing the Best Speaker Award. The fact that Yuan won shows that she's one of our up & coming young speakers in the club.

Ditto for the evaluators - all of them performed well. So it was equally difficult to vote.

Another point I noted was that members who weren't playing roles that night, were very proactive in volunteering for the limited Table Topics slots.

So overall, I'd say that the standard of speaking quality that night was very high indeed.

So let's all continue this standard so that Taman Indrahana Toastmasters Club continues to be known as the premier speaking club!

May all great blessings come your way.

Kay Wong

Ice Breaker Speech: Myself by Ang Poon Kenn

Good evening everyone, my name is Ang Poon Kenn, everyone calls me Ken. Today, the title of my speech is about Myself. As far as I could recall, me parents were not staying with me since I was 3 years old; they went overseas and started their new working life for some reason, and did not come back ever since. I'm staying with my grandmother, and she look after my elder brother, younger sister and me. I actually have not met my parents for more than 18 years and only communicate through the phone and social media. Can you imagine, 15 years of not seeing your own parents? 18 years of not having parents around the house, school and life. My grandmother take over my mother's role, she does all the housework for us. She takes care of us. My relative, they are not rich but they sponsor me for my education and pocket money. However, even though I have the love from my grandmother and relatives, I felt that I'm different from others. They have parents accompany them during

Meeting on 27 October 2009

Dear Indrahanians, Greetings to you. Last meeting we had one of the most unusual Table Topics Sessions I've ever attended. It was conducted by Jen. She gave out a few topics & participants were supposed to tell us a lie based on those topics. Basically Jen wanted us to tell a Tall Tale. A tall tale is a story with unbelievable elements but told in such a way that it could be true. So you can believe it or not. During the session, you could tell who are the true liars (a.k.a. Dominic), those who can't a tell a lie in their honest-to-goodness life (a.k.a. Alice), those who try but didn't quite succeed (a.k.a. Dr Choong), and those who are probably true blue liars - like our guest Victor and our very own Yuan. For the record, Yuan won the Table Topics Award that night. Congrats to Yuan for being such a good liar! And kudos to Jen for such an entertaining session. Those of us who were present had a 'belly' good laugh. Anan gave his ice breaker speech. Those of you f
