BERITA ROTARY
Directors’ Reports for Rotary Year 2009-10
At the end of every Rotary year, the
club’s directors or Committee chairs
respectively report on what has
happened during the past year. On
Wednesday 16 June, Rtns Horst
Wippern (Administration), Adenan
Mohd
Zain
(Membership)
and
Hardeep Jr (Service Projects) took to
the stage, as it were, to deliver their
brief reports - details of their
respective committees’ activities can
be found in the souvenir magazine for
our club’s 83rd installation.

Committee chair Rtn Adenan proudly
reported that the club grew by 7
members to 101 during his tenure,
more than what Pres. Rizal had
committed to DG Leslie Salehuddin.
He was also happy to report that
membership retention was 100%
since no member resigned or was
terminated during 2009-10.

Rtn Horst started off by reporting on
the attendance which - sadly - has
been declining from the first meeting
of the Rotary year. Is it that members
start the year with high hopes and
then get bored with the speaker
selection? Are they too busy or not
interested in club affairs? Your guess
is as good as your fellow member’s.
District-wide we are not doing too
badly, though. A list of all the
speakers, topics, events can be found
in the installation souvenir magazine.
The fellowship events were listed. To
round off the report, admin chair
Horst showed a few pictures of the
newly established club archives,
hoping those PPs who have not
bothered to give a thought to
preserving the club’s history might
wake up and start handing over
whatever they have collected during
their terms of office.

Rtn Adenan, however, admitted that
the ‘Member Care’ sub-committee
plan had failed due to lack of
response from some members, and
he is now looking at other methods to
make it work as he is continuing in his
position during Rotary year 2010-11 in
Pres. Andy Khoo's team.

Many members have remarked that

oversee the largest and most
important committee in our club. So
he reported, albeit briefly, on projects
involving community service, youth,
vocation, international. Surely he had

able sub-committee chairs and
members to support him but it is
hoped that more Rotarians will
become involved in what Rotary
is all about - serving those less
fortunate in society.

On Wednesday 23 June, the
‘reporting series’ was continued
with Hon. Treasurer Richard
Barrett, PR Chair Andy Khoo and
Hon. Secretary Ridza Abdullah
delivering their reports. Again,
some information is shown in the
83rd
installation
banquet
souvenir magazine.
Honorary Treasurer
Rtn Richard showed a number of
tables relating to the cash
position of both RC Kuala
Lumpur DiRaja and Kuala
Lumpur
Rotary
Charity
Foundation. The situation looks
healthy. It seems that with some
clarifying
input
from
Hon.
Treasurer Peter Tham (2007-08)
finally the accounts for RY 200809 can be completed and
presented to the members
shortly. And those for RY 200910 won’t be far behind. Rtn
Richard also presented the
figures for the 82nd installation
and fund raising dinner (Pres.
Rizal).
PE Andy Khoo was happy to
report that the club (and
consequently Rotary) achieved
an improved media visibility,
both in the English and
vernacular press. Also with
regular submissions to the
District editor our club and its
activities was featured in a
number
of
Governor’s
newsletters.
With his installation just 3 days
ago, PE took the opportunity to
show members the mementos
that were presented by the
sister clubs which attended the
event.

The Object of Rotary is to
encourage and foster the ideal of
service as a basis of worthy
enterprise and, in particular, to
encourage and foster:
FIRST. The development of
acquaintance as an opportunity
for service;
SECOND. High ethical standards
in business and professions, the
recognition of the worthiness of all
useful occupations, and the
dignifying of each Rotarian's
occupation as an opportunity to
serve society;
THIRD. The application of the
ideal of service in each Rotarian's
personal, business, and
community life;
FOURTH. The advancement of
international understanding,
goodwill, and peace through a
world fellowship of business and
professional persons united in the
ideal of service.
The Four-Way Test
Of the things we think, say or do:
1) Is it the TRUTH?
2) Is it FAIR to all
concerned?
3) Will it build GOODWILL
and BETTER
FRIENDSHIPS?
4) Will it be BENEFICIAL to
all concerned?

be the last one ‘on stage’ to rush
through his brief report on
secretarial matters (the speed
record is still held by previous
Hon. Sec. Freddy Chan). He was
happy to report that (with
perseverance) the club got
through the AGMs and EGMs to
clean up and modernise the
KLRCF rules, and it updated the
RCKL constitution and bylaws.
Well done Ridza!

Pre-Installation Fellowship Dinner
with Sister Club Rotarians
Rtn Gerald Lee had arranged for
a
steamboat
dinner
at
Damansara Village Seafood
Restaurant – a venue tucked
away in an area only known to
insiders,
apparently
–
to
welcome our visitors from RC
Phuket and Raffles City who had
come to KL to attend the 83rd
installation dinner. Having flown
in the course of the day, it was
easy
enough
for
Phuket
Rotarians to arrive for the
steamboat dinner well in time.
Those from Raffles City were
not so lucky, taking 7 hours to
drive up from Singapore (more
than 40 years ago, the editor did
better, driving his VW fighting
logging trucks on narrow roads).
But when they reached the
restaurant a great time was had
with plenty of food and more
than enough drinks to wash it
down. The idea of a breakfast
fellowship the following morning
was given a miss, with nobody
wanting to get up at an
unearthly hour.
