I had an
excellent
opportunity
to
participate
in the
District 67
Spring
Conference
in Kaohsiung
with my
friends from
District 76
namely TM
Oshiumi, TM
Yada, TM
Kawakami, TM
Sakai and TM
Kobori. I
wrote this
short piece
of essay
because I
want share
with you
what I
learned from
your very
successful
Spring
Conference.
My key
learnings
are
Recognition,
Hospitality
and
Friendship
which are
very simple
things but
can change
our lives.

Wayne Cheng
and Jeffery
Huang helped
us signed up
the
conference
very
smoothly. At
the dinner,
Grace, Y.S
and Joy AND
Tammy A.
Miller
and
Solomon came
to our table
and showed
their
hospitality,
and welcomed
us with
their
beautiful
smiles. On
top of those
heart
warming
stories, I
want to
express my
appreciation
to Janifer
Kuo who has
been
tirelessly
taking care
of us. As
soon as we
met in the
venue, she
took care of
us very well
and she made
us feel that
we were so
special. We,
Japanese
participants,
all know
that she
worked
without much
sleep to
take care of
us. No
matter how
hard she
worked, she
never lost
her
beautiful
smile on her
face. All
her behind
the scene
effort
touched our
heart. You
can buy
service, but
you can't
buy
hospitality
which is
priceless. I
found the
hospitality
was critical
part of your
Spring
Conference
Operating
System.

Recognition
counts
Æg½à´L«
From the
very
beginning
till the
very end of
the Spring
Conference,
I witnessed
many scenes
where
Toastmaster
recognized
each other.
When we
entered the
VIP room, we
were
recognized
by your
leaders. In
the
semi-finals,
the opening
ceremony,
Japanese
speech
contest,
conference
dinner,
ExCo,
District
Council,
Workshops,
International
speech
contest, and
the closing
ceremony,
your shower
of
recognition
never ran
out. We, TMs
in District
76 do
recognized
people who
contribute
to the
Toastmasters,
however what
I have
witnessed in
the D67 SC
was more
thorough. I
found the
recognition
was a part
of your
District
Operating
System.

Friendship
counts
¸Û¼°¤Í½Ë
Everywhere
we went,
Toastmasters
of District
67 were so
friendly
(and
TALKATIVE,
which I
love) The
picture
still in my
memory very
vividly. I
found the
friendship
was a
fantastic
part of our
Human
Operating
System.

When we
brought
beautiful
memories
back to
Japan with
above
learning, a
fantastic
idea popped
up in my
mind. I
created a
Facebook
group to
help
Japanese
speaking
Toastmasters
in District
67, and as
of May 8,
the number
of
participants
from both
D67 and D76
is over 100!
In the
Facebook
group, both
Japanese
Toastmasters
and
Taiwanese
Toastmasters
share their
speech
scripts, so
Taiwanese
members can
learn
Japanese
expressions
from our
speech
scripts, and
Taiwanese
members
receives
comments
from
Japanese
Toastmasters.
This is our
humble way
to show our
gratitude to
our friends
in Taiwan!
