The youngest DTM in Thailand

A few months ago, Chakrit Achawa-Amroong achieved the highest distinction at Toastmasters International. This Distinction is DTM in short and Distinguished Toastmaster in long.

When a person is awarded DTM, it does not mean that the person has perfected his/her own communication skill; but it means the person has also been a leader in helping lots of others to improve their communication and leadership skills.

I can't help but agreeing with Toastmasters philosophy.
Good leaders lead but fantastic leaders build MORE leaders.
Great leaders help others succeed.
Isn't that wonderful?

Chakrit Achawa-Amroong, the youngest DTM in Thailand, besides working with Thai Airways also organized for Ed Hearn, 2007 Toastmasters' World Champion of Public Speaking to speak in Thailand. Chakrit personally raised fund to publish Children Books about Bhuddism to be distributed for free.
His accomplishments were published in many national magazines.

For free copies of Children Books about Bhuddism,

World Champion of Public Speaking

Ed Hearn, 2007 World Champion of Public Speaking came to deliver an awesome keynote entitled, "The Courage To Try" at our District 80 Spring Convention in Singapore in 2008.
The audience was captivated, moved and motivated by his World Champion Skill.
Ed was kind enough to accept an invitation to speak to motivate staff at Thai Airways International and Toastmasters in the whole country of Thailand in December of the same year. One of the focuses was to build a World Champion from Thailand. Thanks Ed. After your speech, we all had the courage to try.

I can still remember vividly the way he connected with the audience with questions, humor and personal stories. We went everywhere with his speech.
