The 2nd TLI was held at Intel PG12, 12p.m. - 5:30p.m.
There were four of the Penang MCA Toastmasters club officers attending it: Khai Yuen the cute cute president, Khai Shing, Lee Mei and Kwek. Khew wanted to attend too, but she didn't come at the very last minute.
The TLI started half an hour later than the planned time, but nevertheless the training went pretty well. Throughout the TLI, there were presentations by giants of Toastmasters -- Division Governor and Area Governors. The presentations were very beneficial; we learnt about giving positive club impression to first-comers, retaining existing members, holding quality meetings and lastly, fostering close relationships between members and between clubs. There were also area-level discussions whereby the respective area governor gone through the club health checklist with present club officers. Boon Chien, our area S5 governor, was indeed an amusing person; he even managed to inject humour whilst going through the checklist with all 6 clubs in the area! His humorous attitude made the discussion lively!
All in all, it's a very good experience and it's a pity that Khew the IPP (Immediate Past President) couldn't attend it.
Let's hope that we the club officers that had attended it would be able to apply the things learnt!
