In District 51, there's only one group of people gathering for Advanced Communicators Meeting (ACM) once a month. Like it's name, ACM, it means that the only people who are involved are Competent Communicators (CC) and above.
The ACM is very different from regular meetings. There are usually 3 speakers each time. However, the evaluation is split into two parts. First part is by the panel evaluators made up of three people. Second part is by the main evaluator, just one person. After that, the audiences are allow to comment on the speakers as well as the evaluators. The main objective of ACM is to give a better insight to speakers on how to improve on communication skills based on ideas given by all sides.
The ACM is currently held in Menara Mutiara Bangsar's Optometry, a shop owned by a toastmaster, Wei Seong (immediate past president of D'Utama Advanced Toastmasters Club). The only sad thing is that refreshments are not provided because they have no funds for it. That's why remember to eat before you go!
Without any further ado, I'll show you guys some shots I have taken just now.

Since he was doing a project on facilitating a discussion, all the ideas from the audiences were written on the board

The environment is more like a discussion group or some advertising company meeting.
Look at the way the chairs arranged and the scribbles on the board.
Interesting... How do you feel in the meeting room, Chia Hur? Do you feel more relax? less serious?
