Area A1 Humorous Speech & Evaluation Contests

Although 03 October 2009, was a wet Saturday afternoon, it did not dampen the spirits of the Toastmasters in Area A1. Our DvG Cindy Wong & Asst.DvG Mohd Awee were already in town by 11.30am to meet up with the Director of Merlimau Polytechnic, Dr.Arshad, before heading for the Contests venue.

Although Dr.Arshad stayed only for the Humorous Contest, he was already impressed!Congratulations to the Contest Chair Joshua Ling, Co-Organiser Ruby Yong, contestants and all the role players including the Judges, for putting up a tremendously good show. My heartfelt gratitude to the audience too, without whom there would have been no show.
