Although we started half an hour late (due to the massive traffic jam in Klang Valley Area), it didn't stop us from anticipating our annual contest; Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest for HELP University College 2009! Firstly, we have our President, Qinmei as our Toastmasters of the Morning welcoming our participants and guests.
The Humorous Speech contests began after the Contest Chair, Jason Lim finished the rules and regulations for the contest as followed:
1. Jack Ying
2. Chan Chee Hong
3. Jason Moi
4. Cassandra Wong
5. Ernest Wong
Later, we had a 15-min short break and refreshments before we continued with Evaluation Contest organized by Contest Chair, Gajendran. The test speaker for our evaluation was Ellie Moey from Bangsar Toastmasters Club with her title "Diamonds are Women's Best Friend".
The contestants were:
1. Chan Chee Hong
2. Jason Moi
3. Cassandra Wong
4. Denise Tan
5. Ernest Wong
After the contest, awards and certificates of appreciations were presented. (for more pictures, please go to our
facebook account!)And while waiting for the announcemnts of the winers, we had a free air-time so Gajendran and Hazry shared with us some light and funny stories and experiences.
