Successful Event with Loghan's Workshop@8 Jan 2011

Successful Event with 'Unlocking the Keys to Contests' Workshop by DTM Loghan,
on 8 Jan 2011


Dear Indrahanians,


I'm happy to report to you that today we had a successful day with our workshop, 'Unlocking the keys to contests'. I think it must have been quite some time since Taman Indrahana organised a public workshop (if my memory serves me right). Certainly for this term, this is the first time we are organising one. I'm happy to say that we must have hit at least 100 ticket sales (we shall await KK's report), which means that we were able to bring a very meaningful & relevant workshop to some 90 participants at least. My personal target was 120 to 150 tix sold - but as we went along, we realised that we were competing against Div P's TLI2, many company functions, & many people still on leave. So I think I'm just grateful for what we achieved:-) Ho ho ha ha ha!

Coming from the champion horse's mouth, Loghan therefore played a big part in giving extraordinary value to the afternoon for many Toastmasters & non-Toastmasters. I believe many of those present were young & new Toastmasters, so you can imagine the chocful of tips they got from Loghan. Even for experienced TMs, it was a very valuable workshop of learning we could take home.


So a BIG THANK YOU to Loghan for his contribution.

And a BIG round of applause to Jade, as OC, & her team for bringing this event to life. Unfortunately Jade had work commitments & was unable to witness the final fruits of all her hard work & efforts. But without Jade driving the whole show, this event couldn't have happened. Thanks a bunch, Jade.


BIG thanks also to Jade's team - Victor for flexing his muscles to help us to get a free venue at Sunway Uni, May for her organising skills in helping with tix bookings & registration, Chee Yan for cheerfully coming early to assist her in the registration, KK for taking responsibility as the big time banker, Han for being the first to arrive to check things out as the Master of Logistics, Thian Seng as the charming Master of Ceremony to hold the show together, Choi Woon for ensuring we get our stomachs nicely filled with Durai's generous F&B offerings at minimum cost, Yeoh for taking all our pretty & handsome pictures as Director of Photography, and Peggy for ensuring we start & end on time.

Thanks also to all those who helped in pushing the sales of tickets to make it a valuable event for participants. Now our club has enriched our coffers a little:-)

So may we Indrahanians continue to achieve greatness together!


Warmest rgds,
Kay Wong
President 2010/2011

Extended Appreciation from the OC, Jade:
Riding on the note of appreciation by Kay to the speaker and Organising Committee, special credit goes to Victor and Kay who going the extra mile to promote the tickets. In addition, Victor was working very hard to get the venue sponsored. And Kay, for inviting Loghan to hold the show and for her efforts behind the scene to ensure the effectiveness of the Talk. Personally, thank you for being a strong back-up for me, ensuring every aspect is well taken care of during the event.


Not forgetting Chrristine, who creatively designed the flyer to be sent out to the mass audiences. That was the first hand information reached out to the toastmasters. And thank you Dr Choong, for helping the club to sell the tickets.


A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL. To the Commitee, a pat on your shoulder!

With love and gratitude,
Jade Lim
Organising Chair

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...
