Just another OUTSTANDING training meeting
23rd April 2009, 7:30pm, Mark's Lodge.
Toastmasters Training Meeting
Cute or not? You might wonder what's this two cute little dolls' role in a Toastmasters Training Meeting?
It's actually a souvenir brought back by our President from Kuching Convention.... to be awarded to tonight's outstanding member.
VPE Amy Hiew also brought back "this" for members:
It's the thoughts that count!
The cute little pepper shakers were awarded to Jimmy & Winnie for their marvelous jobs as the Humour Master & Toastmaster of the Evening.
Jane's Guest : Alvin Lim
Though with only 10 members and 3 guests, all of us enjoyed the every bit of the training meeting.
Alex, our new member, his first role as the Sergeant At Arms for the evening, and Presenting his 1st Ice Breaker during the Meeting.
The word of the day, Prevail, was introduced to us by TM Jane. The word only been used once during the meeting. However, we did learn a new word!
CC Shane Ho as the Table Topics Master has thrown us some "very challenging" question to test our Table Topics skill.
A Toastmasters meeting is not complete without the "fattening factor". We have cheese cake and coffee at Jesselton Coffee before we call it a night!
Thought to some, it might be "just another Toastmasters meeting". To me, every meeting, I learn something and we enjoy ourself. I can't wait till the next meeting!
Next Meeting falls on 14th May 2009 and the TME is CC Shane Ho.
Till then!

OSCAR of Toastmasters
6 of the Sandakan Toastmasters Club members went to attend the District 51 - Annual Convention in Kuching few days ago.
Take aside the tiring journey, all of us enjoyed the whole convention. Listening to excellent speakers, speech contest, great food, lots of laughter, fellowship and visiting some "nice houses" were among few things that we have enjoyed tremendously during our stay at Kuching.
I shall blog again on those "special moment" in the coming blogs.
we, Sandakan Toastmasters Club, were being presented the "Oscar equivalent" and here is it! As we achieved 10/10 DCP goals before 10th April, club members who attended the convention received this prestige award ON STAGE (Group photo pending).
Out of the 200+ clubs in district 51, only 12 clubs achieved their 10/10 goals and 10 clubs had 9/10 goals. All these President Distinguished Clubs were presented with this award.
It's truly our honour to be able to receive this award during the Annual Convention. Thanks to all of you whom have contributed directly, indirectly and spiritually.
Hurray.... Sandakan Toastmasters Club

Division K Annual Convention 2009
Area K2 Governor Datin Grace, Datuk Hassan and myself had a great time at Division K-Convention @ Beverly Hotel on 28-29th March 2009.
We enjoyed the fellowship dinner "Glitter Mama Mia" a lot. Singing, dancing, impromptu dances and performances....they were well prepared for the convention. One word to describe our experience… “fun”.
As for the Division K international speech contest and table topics contest... I am proud to announce that the champion for International Speech Contest is from Area K2, she is non-other than Grace Yong from Tawau Toastmasters Club.... applause....
The following are the results for the international speech contest:
Champion : Grace Yong (Area K-2)
1st Runner up: Raymond Pang (Area K-1)
Table Topics Contest
Champion : John Liew (Area K-1)
1st Runner up: Rozana Yunos, (Area K-6)
Grace from Tawau Toastmasters has delivered a flawless speech titled “A for Attitude”. Her speech touched the judges emotions and she deserves to be the champion of Division K international speech champion.
Her triumphant also proves that clubs at Area K2 are with exceptional high quality. I urge members from Sandakan Toastmasters Club to have courage and participate in the future speech contests, and bring back more glory to Area K-2 in the future.
