A Salute to Our Malaysian Heroes










 




Even with the government’s screw-ups on the Sabah issue, the fact remains that our security apparatus has done a valiant job to defend the country’s integrity. So today I salute our fallen heroes as well as those still serving in Sabah!

I hope and pray that we will not let those who lay down their lives for the country to have died in vain. They surely deserved competent political masters.
























On Saturday morning, I was in KL’s Jalan Ampang for the MIMKL Toastmasters meeting – there, I delivered my Ice Breaker to start my tenth round of the Competent Communication manual – before I rushed off to Sunway University to participate in the Areas B3 & B6 Joint International Speech & Table Topics contests.


 












I was only second runner-up in the Area B3 Table Topics contest but I emerged the winner in the International Speech contest with my speech “Kiss the Frog”. 

It was an interesting speech that I wrote in just under an hour and practiced thirteen times or thereabouts. I will be better prepared at the Division-level contest scheduled on April 06, 2013.
