Division K Semi-Annual Convention report in brief

To the Convention Organising Committee and Fellow Toastmasters,

Congratulations to the sterling performance of Host Club, Tawau Mandarin and joint efforts of Tawau Toastmasters Club for the success at the Semi-Annual Convention held in Tawau recently. Those who have missed the fun, I hope the Toastmasters in Division K can make it to the next District Semi-Annual Convention this November 17-19 in Kuala Lumpur.

To the Organising Committee and team: It is indeed inspiring to work with you who have shown much passion in the many jobs assigned to you and getting all jobs done. You are indeed AMAZING TOASTMASTERS!

Leading an organized event is certainly a challenging task. Sometimes we can’t please everyone. To face the obstacles, we need to take one step at a time and try to live up to the expectation. In trying to do the best, you have done the best. Thank you for your endurance, time and energy and perhaps money too……

A brief report for those who have missed the fun……

1. There are about 90 attendants of delegates, friends and guests who participated at the Convention programs

2. The theme ‘Cocoa Nite’ at the Fellowship Dinner brought alive the environment of Cocoa Farm and Farmers alike. Dressed to the theme attire and the aroma of cocoa , the atmosphere had certainly got everyone spell-bound as everyone anticipated the FUN in store for everyone! Yes! What fun it was!!!....

The Toastmasters of the Evening, Lee Chye Ewe (Area K2 Governor) took the mike with his KILI KALA KILI KALA KUNG KUNG HEI warm up encore – much to the delight of everyone that echoed on for days….. What a smashing idea it was!

The cocoa nite was made significant as they drank down the cocoa concoction prepared in baby-bottle nursed by mother-nature to the over-grown male babies – blindfolded as they fumbled to aim the mouths to feed. The winner was one who finished first at gulping record of time! Much to the amusement of everyone……

To the mothers and babies like – PRA…..SAN

3. Dinner was plentiful; much to the delight of Muslim delegates who broke fast of Ramadan.

4. The highlight of the evening was the performance of ‘swan lake’ Past and Present District Officers of Div.K put on their white gear - head to toes as they danced to the music. It was an impromptu for everyone as they intended to look like a so-called swan lake ballerina of their own kinds that delighted everyone! The dance was definitely the entertainment of the evening! If I can say that for myself.

Of course! It was the first for everyone on stage. Any more surprises?? There’s nothing what Toastmasters cannot do – and they did! With muscles and guts

…..Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the ugliest goose of them all…….
Well-done guys. ENCORE at next round at Annual Convention in Brunei!

That was just the kick-off of the evening. The rest was delightfully fun. IF only you were there!

If anybody deserves the praise more, it is the Organising Chairperson, Lee Le Min and his dynamic committee who worked tirelessly to make the Division Convention a great success.

Kili Kala Kili Kala Kung Kung Hei!

5. We thank our Past Dist.51 Governor, Low Yat Seow, Ler Liong Heng, ATMB from JB and Richard A Gontusan, DTM: the Speakers for the Convention Workshop. The Contestants, all registrants and resouce persons, who have in one way or another, help to make this Convention a success.
