A Joint Meeting with SHIP
This was a joint English-only meeting between SHIP (841st) and Shenzhen Toastmasters (936th), held at the 13th floor of HaoWei Technology Building near High-tech South Station. Both clubs brought energy to the evening, with SZTM members showing up in club T-shirts and name badges.
The Table Topics session followed SHIP’s signature format, combining debate with role-play scenarios around the theme of travel. Tao delivered a prepared speech titled “break the bubble” (IP3.1), and Wendy from SHIP also gave a speech. The meeting featured an innovative new member induction where everyone hugged the new members.
