| Winners of Division W Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest 2012 |
Distinguished
Members & Guests,
It is my honour
and privilege to share my joy with you that Timothy Nakayama has won BOTH
awards in Division W’s Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contest held in
University Malaya on September 29, 2012. As a result, Timothy will proceed to
the District 51 Contest which will be held on 17th November, 2012 in
Holiday Villa Hotel & Suites, Subang, Malaysia.
Contest Day
Highlights:
It was a
day with high hopes and expectations for Timothy and FTMC. After spending a
night relaxing and meditation in Midvalley’s Cititel Hotel, Timothy and I
drove to University Malaya to get ready for the showdown.
The faithful
and die-hard fans of Timothy and Friendship Club; President Alexandra Lau,
Grace Tan, Nancy Soo, our long-time-no-see Susan Lim and your truly were present
to encourage and give support to Timothy.
It was a
tough battle in the humorous speech contest; all contestants were highly
entertaining and caused the audience bursting into laughter. Fortunately for
our club, Timothy’s speech was not only humorous but also contains a valuable message
for everyone who is present, thus, bagging us our first gold of the
competition.
The
evaluation contest resumed shortly after a break and started off with an inspiring
speech given by the test speaker. The evaluation contest was tight with no
clear cut winners as the contestants were well-trained and polished in
delivering their evaluation to the test speaker.
Timothy was
the fourth evaluator out of five contestants, and he struck gold when he
demonstrated how being outrage can
help to increase the emotional intensity and impact to the audience. Perhaps, it was outrages
that differentiates Timothy from the contestants, thus, earning us our second gold
in the evaluation contest.
