Dinner with Dr Reddy@3 Nov,2010


Our Club members: LeAnn Tang, Dr. Choong, K.K. Ng, Thian Seng & wife and Yeoh joined several other Toastmasters from other clubs for dinner with Past President Dr. Reddy, DTM on Wednesday, 3rd Nov, 2010. Mooi Fah, a former member was also present.

Sue Ding, DTM from Extol; Dr. John Lau from MIHRM & his wife and Low yat Seow, DTM & Toh Sek Cheong from D'Utama Advanced were also present.  

If they had not gone to China, Foong Ming and several other past and present club members would have joined the dinner too.

Dr. Reddy was back in town for a short holiday. He was our President in  2002- 2003. His wife Mary Vaz was the President in 2000- 2001. Both Dr. Reddy and Mary are now residing in Canberra, Australia. 

Dr. Reddy and Mary were both very active within and beyond the club, having acted as mentors, sponsors, coaches and Area Governors, etc, hence the presence of members from other clubs. Currently, both husband and wife are busy with work and have not joined the Toastmasters Down Under as yet.

Mary came back alone in June this year and a dinner was held for old friends to catch up with her. Dr. Reddy said they would come back again together next year and we are looking forward to meeting up the wonderful couple together again soon.

Kay Wong’s presidential address is always a delight to hear because she uses stories to draw us in; stories that make us ponder and reflect. And when she’s finished with her narration, a lesson will have been imprinted in our consciousness! Our Immediate Past President and Area B2 Governor, Han Lee Hwee took control of the meeting as TME, and he too launched another short story. I tell you – we do have engaging storytellers at Taman Indrahana and they are all talented. And then we had Alice Ong in her familiar role as Humor Master. I have often found her to be an interesting humorist – there’s something about her I cannot put my finger on. Perhaps it’s that gleaming sparkle in her eyes? Or her mirthful demeanor? Or her chirpy smile? Whatever it is – I sense this welcomed warmth i...

Voice of Indrahanians - My 2 Cents

I have heard about Toast Masters Clubs long before this but had never had the opportunity of having one of my friend/colleague actually being actively involved in one. So out of curiosity I asked him if he could bring me along. He kindly did. As we were both from the same office building, I trailed him to the venue.

I remembered how supportive and nurturing the environment was. There was no sense of threat and comments/critique were given sincerely and received good naturedly. It was a very positive experience indeed. I attended another 2 sessions, this time bringing my ...
