EMinent Communicators TMC as Project Speaker & Project Evaluator, 22nd August 2019

On the 22^nd August 2019, I was at EMinent Communicators Toastmasters Club, as project speaker, and project evaluator.  This was also my Area Director visit.  This was my 40^th club visit on the 53^rd day of the Toastmaster year.

The Toastmaster of the Day was Mithun Jugal Kishore Malani.  The language evaluator was Langeline Leong. The timer was Lily Hu.  The ah counter was Sally Chua.  The table topics master was Pallavi Sharma.

Ragavender Jayakumar gave his icebreaker.  He spoke about his “game”, about how his worldview.

I spoke about the concept of mentorship, leadership, and management development, highlighting club growth and professional development.  It was essentially a policy speech.

Naveen Giri spoke about his volunteer work in the Singapore Lonely Patients’ Association, which I have never heard about, so it was very interesting.  He gave a brief history of the origins of the organisation, helping recovering veterans of World War I, and then spoke about what they do in Singapore, visiting people in hospital, and being their friend.  This is a noble cause, and Naveen Giri is an inspirational person.  He is a stroke survivor, but he never let that hold him back from being an example to all of us.

The evaluators were Jeevan Mahendran, Mithun Jugal Kishore Malani, and myself.
