👑 WHO CAN LEAD?

When we think of leadership, we often think of titles, authority, or the people standing at the front.

But throughout our lives, some of the most important leaders may have been people who never held a position at all—a teacher, a friend, a teammate, or someone who simply showed us the way when we needed it most.

As STMC enters Election Day, we invite you to reflect on a simple yet thought-provoking question:

✨ Who can lead?

Join us for an afternoon of speeches, stories, and conversations as we explore the many faces of leadership and the impact one person can have on another.

📅 13 June 2026
🕜 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM
📍 Room 401, 224 Dien Bien Phu, HCMC
🎟️ Free for everyone

“Leadership is not about titles, positions, or flowcharts. It is about one life influencing another.” — John C. Maxwell

Thank You, ExCom 2025–2026 💙✨

Behind every successful meeting, every educational session, every membership drive, and every memorable event was a team of dedicated leaders serving with passion, commitment, and heart.

Thanks to the collective efforts of our ExCom, members, and supporters, STMC proudly achieved several milestones this year, including:

🏆 President’s Distinguished Club Award
🏆 Outstanding Club Award
🏆 Fast Club Award
🏆 Hot Club Award
🏆 Provident Club Award

We also celebrated remarkable achievements on the District stage, with our members representing STMC with excellence and Irene advancing to the World Championship of Public Speaking Quarterfinals after winning the District 97 International Speech Contest.

These accomplishments were not built overnight. They were the result of countless hours of planning, mentoring, problem-solving, encouraging members, and working tirelessly behind the scenes.

To our ExCom 2025–2026 — thank you for your leadership, dedication, resilience, and service. Thank you for helping STMC grow stronger, reach higher, and continue creating opportunities for members to learn, lead, and thrive.

Your term may be ending, but your impact will remain part of STMC's story for years to come.

💙 A Year of Service • A Legacy of Impact

What a weekend it has been for Saigon Toastmasters Club. 💙

This year, STMC proudly brought home multiple club awards:

🏆 President’s Distinguished Club
🏆 Outstanding Club Award
🏆 Fast Club Award
🏆 Hot Club (Smedley) Award
🏆 Provident Club Award

These achievements reflect the dedication, consistency, and teamwork of every member who has contributed to STMC throughout the year. Every meeting hosted, every role taken, every speech delivered, every member supported - all of it mattered. 🌟

A huge congratulations as well to our incredible VPE, Irene Quoico:

🥈 2nd Place - Table Topics Contest

By winning the International Speech Contest, Irene will officially advance to the Toastmasters World Championship Quarterfinals. 🌍🎤
We are beyond proud to see STMC represented on an even bigger stage.

Beyond the awards, this conference was also about connection.
Seeing members from Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and many other communities come together reminded us how Toastmasters goes far beyond public speaking - it creates friendships, opportunities, and shared growth across borders. 🤝

It was also incredibly special to reconnect with old STMC members, celebrate together, share meals, laugh until midnight, cheer for one another during contests, and create moments that truly felt like family. ❤️

From formal conference sessions to cultural gala nights filled with traditional outfits, music, dancing, and celebration - every moment captured the spirit of District 97: diverse voices, one supportive community.

Thank you to everyone who represented STMC with passion, energy, and heart.
And thank you, District 97, for reminding us once again why we love this journey so much.

Here’s to bigger stages, stronger friendships, and even greater impact ahead. 🚀

💸 We often think the highest prices in life are paid with money.

But sometimes…
The real cost is our time, our peace, our confidence, our sleep, or even the version of ourselves we slowly lose along the way.
A job that drains your energy.A relationship you kept excusing.A dream you gave up too early.

Or a lifestyle that looked successful on the outside, but quietly exhausted you inside.

“The Price You Didn’t Know You Paid” is a theme about the hidden costs behind our choices - the things we ignored, underestimated, or only realized when it was already too late.

At Meeting #376, let’s share the stories behind the sacrifices, lessons, regrets, and realizations that shaped us into who we are today.

Because sometimes, the most valuable lessons are the ones that cost us the most. 🎭

📍 Room 501, 224 Dien Bien Phu, HCM
🗓 Saturday, 23 May 2026
⏰ 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM
🎟 Guest fee: 80,000 VND

Join STMC and discover what stories are hidden behind the prices people pay in life. 💙
