World Speech Day 2021 on YouTube: An Update

Recognition to the Top 6 videos from the “WSD with CV Plus” channel on YouTube – yes, all six are the WSD 2021 promo clips – and each one of them has already obtained more than 400 views!

WSD 2021 Promo Video by Alan Chew

Alan Chew, formerly with the One World Toastmasters Club – is a member of World Speakers’ Coalition. 

His speeches consist of finely nuanced expressions that are meticulously thought through. You get this calming effect from a speaking style that is measured and controlled, and calm and composed. Always, looking forward to listening to him speak.

World Speech Day 2021 on YouTube

When WSD Global put out a call worldwide for micro videos in order to build awareness and promote World Speech Day 2021 – l certainly didn’t expect to receive overwhelming support from the WSD community here. 

All in all, we have amassed a total of 25 promo videos – and in my book, that is a very good effort. Therefore, CV+ would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to all those who have produced the said videos. GOOD JOB, EVERYBODY! 

Not only that but we are pleasantly surprised that many of these clips have garnered a more than decent number of views. To me, these are just promo videos, nothing more. And they are mostly of less than 80 seconds duration. 

And yet, 76% of this collection – you can find them all in our YouTube channel "WSD with CV Plus" – has more than 200 views! 

Anyway, I’m highlighting the nineteen who belong in this category: 

• Stancylyn Tani Nila – 344 views 
• Abegail LeeAnn – 283 views 
• Karyn Yadlyn – 283 views 
• Ken Chan – 283 views 
• Sumithra Devi – 279 views
• Christal Wong – 277 views 
• Safura Atan – 278 views 
• Zahra Moharrer – 276 views 
• Lee Chin Yee – 264 views 
• Robyn Grace Leo – 253 views 
• Fazlina Fadzil – 246 views 
• Samuel Sham – 245 views 
• Rohijas Md Sharif – 241 views 
• A Suriakumar – 239 views 
• Mathew Philippose – 236 views 
• Julia Taha – 232 views 
• Mohd Farhan Abd Latib – 225 views 
• Raihana Mohd Ghaus – 217 views 
• Buddhika Laknath Ranasingha – 216 views 

As at December 14, 2020, 09:23 AM

In fact, one of them has even garnered 300+ views! Wow!

WSD 2021 Promo Video by Raihana Mohd Ghaus

Raihana Mohd Ghaus, a member of the PPTD Toastmasters Club of Putrajaya addresses earthlings in this micro video – of course, as the title says, she is promoting WSD 2021:

 

Raihana is a good speaker – it is easy to see that speaking comes naturally to her. For her, it’s all about clarity, coherence and cogency in her message. 

Moreover, there is a reticent cheerfulness that resides within because as she speaks, you can feel the positive vibes coming from her. 

As she embraces World Speech Day, you should too! World Speech Day is the right platform for public speaking. 

And a public speaking event that connects communities, cities and countries – through the power of speeches!

WSD 2021 Promo Video by Safura Atan

Safura Atan is an accomplished speaker – and herewith is her WSD 2021 promo video:

 

And if you had the privilege to hear her speeches, you’ll agree that they are lyrical expressions articulated with an assuredness and authority of a true-blue orator who not only knows what she’s talking about – but also one whose speech is couched in eloquent elegance. 

Safura is a member of Shah Alam Toastmasters Club. 

Check her out next March at World Speech Day!

WSD 2021 Promo Video by Ken Chan

Ken Chan produced this promo video for WSD 2021:

 

He is a man possessed! When he speaks, it is as if his life depends on it! 

A person who conveys conviction, passion and power – and even better, you feel it! He’s a speaker not to be trifled with. A speaker with pizzazz and who speaks well in both English and Malay. A speaker who is the human version of a stick of dynamite! 

There are not many people that we know of who’s a member of 3 different speaking clubs – these clubs have different approaches and platforms. Attend one of his club meetings and I betcha you’ll agree with us. 

Better still, attend the World Speech Day 2021 event in March – and catch him there!

And from this snippet – she’s a natural! We can’t wait to hear her speak at World Speech Day 2021!

In Malaysia, World Speech Day is big on inclusivity and diversity. 

From our first year, we already had speakers sharing in different dialects and languages. And we continue to practise this. 

It doesn’t matter what language you speak in because we aspire to reach out to everybody! We believe that if you have the freedom to speak in any language, you will be able to leverage on your full potential. 

Irrespective of who you are, we want you to be part of our WSD community. We want your WSD experience to be built around equality, respect, and a sense of belonging. 

World Speech Day is for everybody!
