On Tawau Toastmasters Club's 14th Installation Banquet, 6th June 2010
First of all, I would like to congratulate outgoing president, Rosslin Rosen, ACB, CL, for her outstanding leadership in making Tawau Toastmasters Club a Distinguish Club. A job well done!
And today, the responsibility will be handed on, to incoming president, Lynda Lee Ping, CC, CL to carry on the legacy to make Tawau Toastmasters Club as one of the finest clubs in Division K, District 87.
I used to believe that Communication Skill is the key for having a successful career, but eventually, I found out that it is not true. Communication skill is EVERYTHING. Communication is the bridge to success in your career, personal relationship, family life and most of all, if you cannot communicate effectively in a positive, productive and powerful manner, you are destined to have an unsuccessful life.
Toastmasters Club provides a wonderful platform to sharpen and enhance ones’ communication skills and builds confidence within us through public speaking and leadership. Success is preparation meets opportunity. If you have not prepared yourself, even when Mr. Opportunity comes and knocks on your door, you will not be qualified to welcome him to your world.
This term, President Lynda has chosen her theme as “Stepping Up Stepping Out”. It is very appropriate, for we join Toastmasters with the purpose to Step Up and Step Out of our comfort zone. When we step out from our comfort zone, we learn and expand. As we learn and expand, we are preparing ourselves for a better future. When we are prepared, and Mr. Opportunity come and knock at our door, guess what….. Success!
I look forward for another successful term for Tawau Toastmasters Club.
