Greetings fellow friends and toastmasters!

UniRazak TMC is no longer in the previous venue - Kelana Jaya as the university has moved to Sunway Mentari. The building is the Kurnia Insurance building, which you will be able to see once you are driving on the overhead bridge on the LDP Highway.

Visit to CIMA Toastmasters Club

Visiting other toastmasters clubs have always been a fun treat for us. Just recently, we visited CIMA Toastmasters Club. They had a free and easy meeting with the official visit from their Area B2 Governor, Han Lee Hwee.

The Toastmaster of the Evening was Dinesh Kanna who hosted the meeting with humour and emphasized on punctuality. The energy of the meeting was kept at a good momentum especially during Table Topics Session where SEVEN brave souls (as they were called) went up and gave their best shot. The best table topics speaker was nabbed by our very own SAA, Hui Shan.

As the meeting progresses, CIMA TMC has a great surprise for their club members and also the Area B2 Governor. A cake was presented to the September babies - Ron, Ai Ling and Lee Hwee. It is definitely a moment that bonded the club members because of such a thoughtful gesture to present a lovely cake for those who celebrated birthdays in the same month.

When the meeting carried on, three speakers came forward to present their prepared speech -Michelle (KPMG), Ai Ling and Dinesh. Each of them entertained us in their own way and gave us a message to bring home. The best prepared speech speaker was presented to Dinesh Kanna.

The most significant time came; general evaluation session. The evaluators shared their opinions and points of improvement for the speaker while the role players informed us of their reports. Immediately after that, the best evaluator was won by Ron who evaluated on AiLing's Advance Story Telling speech (Lets Get Personal) entitled; Going back to my Hometown.






Lastly, Area B2 Governor Lee Hwee presented CIMA TMC with their President's Distinguished Club Ribbon for term 2009/2010. Though the meeting was attended by a small crowd, the energy level was kept up and everyone enjoyed themselves tremendously.
