2008 Aug 18 - Joint-Club-Contests: Humorous Speech and Evaluation

With united hearts, Penang MCA Toastmasters and Voices Toastmasters proudly presented joint Club-Level Humorous Speech Contest as well as Evaluation Contest!

Despite of the massive traffic jam at the Penang Bridge, our members and contestants from mainland still made it, though they were a mite bit late.

When the contestants settled down, the Humorous Contest started without further delay.

The contestants from Penang MCA -- Khai Shing, Kwek, Chia Siang and Narchonai, all were new faces to the audience. Yet the effort they put in the speech preparation was clearly not to be neglected!

The response from audience was good too; roars of laughter came from audience every now and then during their reciting of humorous speeches.

After a short break, the Evaluation Contest began. The contestants were solemnly observing the speaker and were jotting down every evaluation point. At the very last minute, Kwek was urged to replace Khew for the Evaluation Contest, for poor Khew fell ill just at the very night of the contest. Khai Shing and Chia Siang really did well in their evaluation; they are really experienced evaluators!

When the names of the winners for both contests were announced, the applause by the audience was vividly of generosity!

Congratulations to Kwek (champion for Humorous Speech Contest) and Khai Shing (champion for Evaluation Contest) for making it to the Area Level Contests!

May you bring fame to our Penang MCA Toastmasters Club!

As for Chia Siang (1st Runner-Up for Humorous Speech) and Narchonai, good try! Narchonai especially, for she is merely a new baby in Toastmasters! See you in other contests!
