World Speech Day Videos: 2025 Viewership Update

I'm now only intending to give updates of World Speech Day videos once a year. Either March or May.

As in previous updates – the last one was published seven months ago – the viewership of the said videos continue their upswing trend. I'm, of course, referring to the Top 60 speech videos from our YouTube channel "WSD with CV Plus" – as tagged under "Popular". 

In fact, sixty videos have more than a thousand views. And, seven videos have even surpassed 3,000 views!

Check out our latest updates – the viewerships are correct as at 11:35 PM Malaysian time on May 01:
