30.06.2020 Meeting # 464- What Toastmasters Means To Me



17 years of glory, Money Mastery-KL Toastmasters Club closes its final meeting of the term with a bang together with their installation ceremony of the incoming EXCOs. What went on that night at the club, on the last day of the 2nd half of the epic pandemic year of 2020?

We’ve been having an array of online meetings due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Today being the last meeting of the term, we decided to go with something different than the usual. The meeting kick started at 7.15pm online with our ASAA Serena Kong, ACB, CL introducing the house rules, leading the Toastmasters’ promise in which we take pride and to call upon the great KL Loh, ATMG for his final introductory address as club President.

With his zest, power and burning desire that has fuelled the torch that he will be passing on to the incoming President, he began his address with a boom and called upon all the members to share their wonderful experience in Toastmasters.

Today’s word of the day was ‘serve’ and each member gave a 3 minute rendition of how Toastmasters served them and how they served society in Toastmasters. It was truly an walk down memory lane for each of us.

Later on the Toastmaster of the Evening, Rey Thean, PM1 gave a brief history of Toastmasters International and the heritage and strength of Money Mastery-KL TMC. The respective role players Abdulrahman, PM2, as the As-Counter, Hai Liang as the Grammarian, EK Yeo, CC, CL as the Timer and our Division Director Kishan Doshi, DL5 as the General Evaluator explained their roles and we moved on to the highlight of the night which was our very first virtual Installation Ceremony.



Our Division Director, Kishan Doshi, DL5, gave his address and discharged the existing EXCO team.


We kick started the swearing in ceremony of each EXCO as follows: 

President-Elect: Julia Leong, ACG, ALB 
VP Education-Elect: Oo Hai Liang
VP Membership-Elect: Serena Kong, ACB, CL
Treasurer-Elect: Yeo Eng Keng, CC, CL
Secretary-Elect: Abdulrahman, PM2
SAA-Elect: Rey Thean, PM1

Congratulations to our amazing new EXCO 2020/2021 and we hope you serve the club in line with our Toastmasters Values of Integrity, Respect, Service and Excellence.



To the previous EXCO of Term 2019/2020, well done on being a President’s Distinguished Club and serving the club with your heart and soul.

Later on, we had our fun Quiz Master, Manish Jha, IP1 bring the whole Zoom meeting alive with a little general knowledge quiz by having us answer in teams. Nothing stops us from having fun at MMKL, not even a lockdown.

The respective role players gave us their best feedbacks and finally our President KL Loh, ATMG gave his epic closing for the last time. With his heart of gold and gratitude he thanked each and everyone in MMKL for their amazing support to serve when called upon to do so.

It was a heart to heart, soul to soul meeting that filled us with joy and hope for the upcoming term ahead. Nothing will stop MMKL from achieving its goals and may the force be with us.
Stay Safe Folks!
