Post AGM 2008

As the AGM 2008 draws to a close, the outgoing Executive Committee of the troop elected the next batch of leaders to carry the troop on their shoulders. After the next troop office bearers are announced, it was finally the time to announce the new group of leaders. It was an intensifying moment as the junior Patrol Leaders and Patrol Seconds are announced. Then , TL Andrew Ng chooses to voice out the new Troop Leader for the term 08/09 first. It was a awkward moment because the new TL is usually announced at the very last. Newly elected TL , Adrian Chuah gave his speech and then it was time for the ATL's to be chosen. First was Prob. ATL Ong Siew Chai. He too gave his long awaited speech. Finally it was time for the second ATL to be chosen. It was a moment of mixed emotions when Prob. VUL Chuan Teik Min was elected as the VUL for this term. It was a shocking and awful moment as he gave his speech. Right after that , Prob. VUL Chong Kam Zhern was announced as the second ATL . He too was in mixed emotions as he began his speech. He gave his sympathies to the one that should have deserved the post more than he did. The event was inevitable as it an emotional moment for some scouts in the troop. But whatever happens, the troop will stand strong and these scouts will always be united and their bonds will never be broken.
