Two weeks after Divison B HSEC

It’s been about two weeks, however the event is still fresh in my head, mainly because I was the Organizing Chair. This was the first time I organized an event of that size that involved so many Toastmasters clubs. What am I talking about? I’m talking about the Division B Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest that took place on the 18th October 2008 at Sunway University College.

We had five contestants for each respective contest (who were they? Here). The contestants tickled our funny bones, and got our undivided attention by their memorizing evaluations. In the end, two individuals stood out and become the Champions of Division B. They are respectively:

District 51 Division B Humorous Speech Contest Winner: Sagadevan Singaravelu
Club Number: 5611
Club Name : MAS Mawar Toastmasters Club

District 51 Evaluation Contest Winner: Jessy Chahal
Club Number 5912
Club Name: D'Utama Toastmasters Club



The first runner up to the Humorous Speech Contest is Dennis Wee (D'Utama Advanced Toastmasters Club). He is also the second runner up for the Evaluation Contest.



The second runner up for the Humorous Speech Contest is Chris Chen Siew Yoke (MAS Cempaka Toastmasters Club)



The first runner up for the Evaluation Contest is Kay Wong (Taman Indrahana Toastmasters Club)



Gathering feedback from the audience and role players, I summarized that the event was indeed a successful event with a turn out of approximately 100 people, all nicely packed in Auditorium G. This accomplishment is definitely not the work of only one man and as such I wish to thank the Chief Judge, DTM Ramdas Nayar, his team of mysterious Judges, and my Role players. This indeed is a memorable experience for me and it’s definitely one worthy to be concluded with a smile.
