13 April is a nice weekend, but we were tensed. After a 4-hour long discussion on the content of the presentation on 12 April, Yolanda and I was headed to Macau by ferry. We spent all our time in discussing the script of our presentation in the one-hour journey. We both agreed that practice make perfect, therefore, we practised on board. The passengers sitting around us might be very curious on what are we doing.
After a short break to buy Yolanda's favourite local snack, we dashed to Hotel Casiono Lesbon and met PP Kenneth. We have the last minute amendment on the script and powerpoint presentation. This is the first time we try to make our presentation a Hong Kong-Macao-Mongolia focused one. Different mentors gave us different opinions and our tasks was congregate all the best ideas and put them into our presentation. We arrived at the Military Club of Macau at the last minute. The Joint Presidents Meeting has been conducting.
Our presentation was schedule at the end of the meeting when everyone are enjoying their dinner. It is a challenging task, because if our presentation was attractive, we can get all attention, otherwises, no one will hear us. We were "lucky" that many presidents were concentrated to listen to our "interactive" dialogued presentation. It was not easy to get all attentions, but we got lots of constructive advices after the presentation.
After the presentation, we firstly experienced what Joe told us that the Rotarians in Macao are very friendly. PP Stella was waiting for us at the entrance and drove us to the Pier to catch the ferry back to Hong Kong.
This was one of the most tensed presentation I had, but it was one of the most inspiring one.
