Michael Chu, best prepared speech winner at the chapter meeting. Michael has improved tremendously since his maiden speech at the last chapter meeting! Well done!

I am excited about this new term. Walter Lee has been elected president of the club, and we hope the club will once again be a President's Distinguished Club at the end of the term.

Running a club is like running a company. The success of the club is dependent on the cooperation of everyone concerned.

During our recent installation of club officers, , Zafar from Whampoa Toastmasters' Club graciously helped to instal the new exco. We also had Ng Cher Khim sharing with us some tips on humour. The members were really inspired to be able to watch a video clip of his prize winning speech at the District 80 Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contests in Hong Kong.

Bernard Gan from Queenstown Toastmasters' Club was dynamic and his loud, booming voice was sufficient to keep everyone wide awake. His sense of humour also enhanced the laughter of the members.

We had a guest speaker, Heru from the Cairnhill Toastmasters' Club. There was much laughter during the Table Topics Session led by Zafar, and speakers touched on the latest happenings that had taken place in Singapore. Peter Tay won the best speaker in the Table Topics Session while Ng Cher Khim was the best evaluator for his evaluation of Heru's Advanced Project 1.

Joanne Lai from NUS Toastmasters' Club gave much enlightenment in her languaage evaluation. As usual, with every meeting, I would always learn something new.

Join a toastmasters' club nearest to you! Anyone?
