The inimitable District B did it again. The savvy toast masters used to conquering all they touched, now adopted themselves to new media exposure. And used it well too.

Lakhi Sawlani, venerable Toast Master of 13 years standing and Division B Governor put Toastmasters International on the air  on 5th December by participating on the popular 103.8 Dubai Eye radio Channel.

He was invited as a guest on the show called "Saturday Extra with John Deykin". He shared with the public the following information.

• Toast Masters are NOT those who raised a toast for the bride and groom in a church wedding. They are masters of public speaking and leadership training
• Joining any Toastmasters is just a simple email away. Just email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Lakhi would come calling.
• Toast Masters turn you out from a nervous starter in front of an audience  - into the confident speaker who would address any international audience and win their hearts too. That is what exactly Lakhi did in his career.
• Being a Toast Master is NOT costly at all, you are assigned a personal mentor as soon as you joins in, you are given evaluations on the spot and everyone ensure that you grow in the organization. WHAT A GREAT WAY TO SHAPE UP.
• You need NOT be good in English to join Toast Masters. You can develop later easily over time.
• Toast Masters are an exemplary organization in Dubai and other Gulf Countries. They are actually well grounded with members from many nationalities joining together.
• Speech Tips – importance of body language, right words, use of humor, need to research, the tone of speech – all that goes into a good speech were given away
• Finally, rising in Toast Masters organization can be beneficial in other walks of life too, in personal lives, official lives and in our community levels too.
