Meeting on 25 May 2010

Dear Indrahanians,

Well, well, well. Guess what? We had up to 30 attendants for this 25 May meeting! What a wonderful turn-out!

Of course it was partly to do with the Crystal ladies contributing to the numbers, since this was a joint-mini meeting with Crystal Club. The Crystal ladies may have been small in numbers, but they were big on impact. Their Table Topic Master, Emily Bong, gave us a very entertaining session. Their TT participant, Christine, went on to win the Table Topic award. Their assignment speaker, Bong Yi Lin, gave us a valuable message to donate blood to save lives. And their AH Counter Ng Siew Tho & Timer Ching Teng Yoong, kept us in tow with our speech crutches & time management.

A big hand to Crystal.

Jen was her sweet self as TME to sweeten & lighten up the meeting with her smiles & soft-spoken voice. KK entertained us for 9 minutes with his first Advance speech from the manual ‘Humorously Speaking’. He deserves a huge round of applause for making the bold move to start on his advance speeches after a long hiatus. Kudos to KK!

The rest of the role players, as usual, did a credible job. Special thanks to Jade who stepped in as SAA at the last minute.

Now the other reason why we had such a large attendance is of course due to our AGM night. We had some long lost friends appearing once again, like Charis, Olga, Jee Peng, Philip, Yuan, Kevin, Fong Ming. Thanks a lot to their interest & support to the club.

Well, the AGM went on smoothly, with relevant questions being asked. I guess all’s well that ends well. And for the benefit of members who were unable to make it for that night, here’s the EXCO 2010/2011 members who have been nominated & voted in:


Prez – Kay Wong

VPE – Victor Ong

VPM – Yeoh Cheng Lim

VPPR – Jade Lim

Treasurer – Ng Koon Kow

Secretary – May Yong

SAA – Fanny Thang

Committee Member 1 – Yap Choi Woon

Committee Member 2 – Lim Thian Seng



These are the people who have sportingly agreed to serve the club for the next term 2010/2011 – so let’s give them a big hand. Clap Clap Clap.

But seriously speaking, as the incoming Prez, I’d like to say a big THANK YOU to our members who trust me with this job. And also very importantly I wish to say a huge THANK YOU to the rest of the incoming EXCO team who have readily agreed to work together with me in the next term to look into the interests of the club. Thanks a lot to all Taman Indrahanians!

May all great blessings come your way.


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....
