Filcom International TMC

13th April 2019
Speak It To Win It 🎙️🏆

With a TMOD as vibrant as Arjay, Filcom’s 352nd meeting was nothing short of fun! SAA Manij started the meeting at 7 pm sharp, welcoming everyone as he shared the club mission and meeting protocol. He then called on President Leo, who formally opened the meeting and welcomed the guests. It was followed by Arjay’s animated introduction of the meeting “Speak It To Win It”, which was inspired by a famous game show. He was assisted by the role players for the night, Kynah as Grammarian, Satish as Ah Counter, and Jessie as Timer.

🎙️ROUND 1️⃣: PREPARED SPEECHES

The first segment of the meeting was composed of 4 valiant Filcomites who showcased the true meaning of winning – overcoming their own fears. Being in front of an audience to deliver a speech can be daunting but these Filcomites certainly won this round.

Bilal delivered some strong and important points on how our struggles are simply stepping stones to growth and success, on his speech entitled “Adversity”. He was followed by Sahar’s “Weekend Bliss”, which displayed how her family loves going outdoors, as a way to relax and of course, make memories.

Meanwhile, Ayman, in his speech “You Are Special”, entertained the audience and nourished them with information on leadership styles. Diana, on the other hand, steered everyone to a world of optimism and dreams-coming-true in her inspirational piece “How I See It”.

🎙️ROUND 2️⃣: TABLE TOPICS

The second leg of the meeting was headed by Gino, who also transformed the hall to a different game show setting. He challenged the table topics speakers to deliver a speech out of photos that revolve around “The Game of Life”. Out of the audience emerged four bold volunteers - Burhan, Deepti, and Guests Raihan and Ajith, who spoke about their personal experiences relating to their corresponding images.

🎙️ROUND 3️⃣: EVALUATION

Mehdi acted as the General Evaluator for the third part of the meeting. He was teamed up by a set of noteworthy evaluators - Joseph, CJ, Fouad, and Guest Kirsty, who all delivered remarkable evaluation on their respective speech assignments.

Thereafter, Leo rendered his evaluation on the table topics speeches, and the segment as a whole. The role players also delivered their insightful reports, before Mehdi gave his General Evaluation.

💼 BUSINESS SECTION

DTM Dr. Farooq, as the Chairman of the Election Committee for the election proceedings of the next term, presented the Election Committee Report. After the ExCom’s announcements, the winners for each of the segments were acknowledged, followed by the club’s favorite - group photo-taking!

It was indeed a fun-filled night, with interactive and educational games prepared by the TMOD. Arjay gave everyone a spectacular opportunity to speak and conquer fears, accompanied by wrapped gifts and bursts of laughter. Without a doubt, all of Filcom won the night!🎉🎉🎉

"It is through the power of speaking where one can proclaim victory!"
