Record-busting 50 Million Cases















The world is really sick, being burdened with a record-busting 50 million coronavirus cases! 

I have tallied the countries that have more than 100,000 cases and they add up to fifty-four altogether. Hungary, Jordan and Armenia are the three countries that are the latest to have hooked up. 

Collectively, they account for 94.2% and 95.8% of global infections and fatalities respectively.





 












One of my favorite young speakers is Karyn Yadlyn who also produced a video clip to promote World Speech Day 2021:

 

An eleven-year-old who possesses a precocious talent for speaking – and that is a fact. 

I first saw her perform at the HANKidz President’s Speech Grand Final on November 30, 2019 at TTDI, KL – where I was invited to be one of the four judges – and even then, she had impressed me! I missed listening to her speech at WSD 2020 Kuala Lumpur – I had to be at the WSD 2020 Penang event which was on the same day – but from her video recording, I have no doubt she was a standout! I promised myself I will not miss her speech next year!

[Note: You can watch her WSD videos on YouTube on our channel "WSD with Public Speaking Trailblazers"].
