Food comes first!!

A warm dinner with chicken and vegetable served with rice. Side dish of local delicacies such as corn "kuih". Really awesome!!


Table Topics Session:

TM Faye from Hilton Toastmasters club started the session by explaining a little about the table topics session. She also made it clear that all her topics for the day have a common theme-dreams. The first volunteer, TM Amy was asked to share her idea about her dream car. This brave speaker was indeed more than a match for this topic. This is evident by the way she tackled the whole topic(got to admit that she made us dream of owning a BMW sports car ourself). Next, was TM Britney who got the pleasure of talking about her dream house. Then, it was a brave man from Putrajaya, TM Zariq who took upon the challenge of impromptu speaking. He gave an outstanding speech about his dream career(which includes replacing car steering with joysticks). TM Matthew was the fourth speaker, graciously appealing to the audience with his smooth flow of impromptu speech. Seems like they all had prepared for their respective topics..hmm.. Great job! Last but not least, TM K was asked the killer question- “who is your dream date?” (he took the easy way out by declaring that he is not interested in anyone..smart one though..)

Table Topics Evaluator, again it was an honour for SCTMC to have ACB Joshua George who made his point that every speaker who took part were outstanding in their speech delivery. In addition, he managed to squeeze some time in his evaluation to tell give some quality advice to the table topic speakers.

Humour Session:

Who is it this time? Who else if its not our beloved humour-queen, TM Foo Li Wa. She made the audience roar with laughter with her witty and funny comparison of UK and Malaysian english(that was a good one).
