First Educational Meeting of 2012


Happy new year! Selamat tahun baru and xi nien hao!

Sibu Toastmasters conducted its maiden educational meeting for the year 2012 on Tuesday 3rd of January at Premier Hotel, Sibu. Despite the crazy weather, horrible New Year traffic jam and contagious fever going around Sibu, it's good to see most of the members came to the meeting.

Apart from good ol' Table Topic and Humor session, we were also entertained by our own Master Balancer Allen who shared his knowledge on how to read palm, face, eyebrows and even the lips. We seriously learnt a lot and had a good laugh throughout the evening. Our next meeting is on the 17th of January 2012.

Alright Toastmasters buckle up! We have less than 10 more meetings before the term ends and we are targeting to get another 10 points Distinguished Club President award as what our IPP Peter KB Lau had achieved previously in his term. We're shifting full gear to present all our manual speeches of our respective programs. Jiayou!

Goat Farm Visit 2011

We traveled all the way out into the outskirts of Sibu to visit to TYC Goat & Livestock farm with fellow Toastmasters and families for a final outing for 2011. It was truly a rewarding trip despite the 3pm heat as our own lovely Yu Yee and husband as well as versatile Jason gave the tour around the farm. Yu Yee's farm operates solely on organic method free from any sorts of artificial chemicals. If you would like to know more do visit their Facebook page here.

Alright enough talking, enjoy the pics!
