From The GM’s Desk<br />
Dear members,<br />
THE <strong>Club</strong>’s financial year closed on 31 March 2010. Despite the economic and financial<br />
uncertainty in the first half of 2009, the <strong>Club</strong> performed very well. There was an increase in the<br />
number of members supporting the various social and sporting activities organized by the <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
The participation rate for STAR Games saw a 4.7% increase over that of FY 08/09. These are very<br />
encouraging indicators that members are keen to participate in the activities organised by the<br />
<strong>Club</strong> and are enjoying them. This will motivate the management to strive harder to enhance our<br />
services and upgrade the <strong>Club</strong>’s facilities to meet the members’ needs.<br />
For FY 10/11, the <strong>Club</strong> will improve the existing facilities and explore new initiatives to provide<br />
better facilities for our members. The <strong>Club</strong> will venture into new destinations when organising<br />
short tours for our members. More family based activities will also be organized to enable<br />
family bonding. Activities that have proven to be popular with our members will continue to be<br />
organised and improved upon.<br />
A Fruit Machine management system has been introduced in April 2010 that will speed up<br />
the payment of credits as well as implementing a loyalty program to the players. A daily and<br />
monthly mystery bonus payout from the cashcade is in place to increase the chances of<br />
winning for the players. However, we urge the members to exercise restraint and prudence<br />
when enjoying these fruit machines.<br />
WIFI<br />
The <strong>Club</strong> will also be improving on its connectivity and accessibility. Cable<br />
television will be installed in all the <strong>Club</strong>houses, so that members can enjoy<br />
viewing more channels. All the premises will be WIFI enabled. The website will<br />
be revamped to make it more user friendly, interactive and appealing.<br />
MOTHERS DAY<br />
Over the next 2 months, the <strong>Club</strong> has planned a variety of activities<br />
and events to meet the varying needs of members. Activities that will<br />
be organised include Mother’s Day Special, Family Day, Children’s<br />
Camp, enrichment classes for children, cooking classes for adults,<br />
family based activities and the ever popular local and overseas tours.<br />
Do check them out either in the Fusion magazine, the <strong>Club</strong>’s website or<br />
on the recently installed LCDs at any of the <strong>Club</strong>houses.<br />
4
9 th June 2010 is a significant date for our <strong>Club</strong>. It marks the 20 th Anniversary<br />
of the official opening of Tessensohn <strong>Club</strong>house which was officially opened<br />
by our then President of Singapore, Mr Wee Kim Wee. To commemorate this<br />
significant occasion, Tessensohn <strong>Club</strong>house will be organising a special dinner<br />
at Qian Xi Restaurant on 9 June 2010 at 7:30pm. More than 50% discount<br />
will be given to all the members who have been members of the <strong>Club</strong> for 20<br />
years or more, when they attend this dinner. To show the <strong>Club</strong>’s appreciation of<br />
their unfailing and loyal support to the <strong>Club</strong>, a welcome gift will also be given<br />
to them. Members whose memberships have been 20 years and more will be invited by the<br />
<strong>Club</strong> to attend this dinner. Between 7 and 13 of June 2010, <strong>Club</strong> members who use the <strong>Club</strong><br />
facilities and dine at Qian Xi, Tessensohn can enjoy special promotions and discounts. An all<br />
night jackpot, bowling and karaoke marathon will be organized from 12 Jun 10 midnight to the<br />
morning of 13 Jun 10. There will be lucky draws and surprise prizes to be won. A special Tombola<br />
Nite with a Super Jackpot prize of $10,000 will be organised at Tessensohn Ballroom on 17 June<br />
2010 from 7.30 to 10 pm.<br />
CSC will be ramping up its promotion of healthy lifestyle activities<br />
amongst our members. Changi <strong>Club</strong>house will serve as the main<br />
centre for such activities. For a start, enthusiastic members have<br />
formed 2 interest groups on running and cycling to promote these<br />
activities. Each interest group will form its own committee. Activities<br />
will be organized which will include lectures on sport medicine,<br />
health, physical conditioning and topics related to the respective<br />
sporting activity. Entry level training for beginners will also be<br />
organized. When we have built up a good base of members, we<br />
can form partnerships with related merchants to obtain discounts for<br />
goods and services. The running club organises runs every month on<br />
the 1 st and 3 rd Saturdays whilst the cycling club meets on the 2 nd and<br />
4 th Saturdays. For more details, interested members can either visit<br />
our website, e-mail Leroy_yap@csc.gov.sg or call Leroy at 63915608.<br />
As always, feedback from members is integral to the <strong>Club</strong>’s improvement.<br />
Feedback Boxes have been placed at each of the <strong>Club</strong>house’s main<br />
reception counter where members can submit their feedback. In this way,<br />
members can share their views on the services and facilities provided by<br />
FEEDBACK BOX the <strong>Club</strong>. We are also appointing a management consulting company to<br />
conduct a survey among our members. The aim is to obtain feedback from<br />
a cross-section of members on their satisfaction level with the services and facilities provided<br />
by the <strong>Club</strong>. We hope the survey results will suggest areas of improvement that the <strong>Club</strong> can<br />
focus on so that their needs can be met. We plan to conduct the survey in mid- 2010. Your<br />
participation in this survey will greatly facilitate the <strong>Club</strong> to understand and address members’<br />
needs better.<br />
We wish you a pleasant time at the <strong>Club</strong> and I wish all parents a Happy Mother’s and Father’s Day!<br />

CLUB NEWS<br />
Corporate <strong>Service</strong>s In A Nutshell<br />
THE Corporate <strong>Service</strong>s Department of the <strong>Civil</strong> <strong>Service</strong> <strong>Club</strong> plays an important role in promoting and managing the <strong>Club</strong>’s<br />
functions and activities. Its work encompasses planning and organising sports for civil servants and club members, marketing club<br />
memberships, planning and organising social activities, financial administration, development and maintenance of clubhouses,<br />
information technology, personnel administration and general administration.<br />

Goh Tua Soon<br />
The Sports Section, headed by Goh Tua Soon, is responsible for planning and organising a total of 34<br />
games annually for public officers. As physical exercises contribute to good health and fitness, the team<br />
has started adding new initiatives to their schedule. Based at the Changi <strong>Club</strong>house, they have organised<br />
cycling trips, running events, fishing and other sporting events exclusively for club members. <strong>Club</strong> members<br />
will have the opportunity to share and interact with other members who enjoy the same sporting hobbies,<br />
compete among themselves in friendly events such as running, cycling and perhaps even to compete for<br />
the <strong>Club</strong>’s honours.<br />
Heading the Social and Finance team is Angie Lim. Social activities are always fun and enjoyable,<br />
and have proven popular with members. The Social team is responsible for organising an ever-increasing<br />
number of social activities. Currently, an average of 60 successful activities are carried out each month. To<br />
improve the success rate and as well as helping staff achieve higher productivity, the Section will reposition<br />
itself to work on activities that have a greater potential to succeed. Their emphasis now will be more on<br />
quality and value, ensuring that selected activities have almost certain success.<br />
Angie Lim<br />
Due to the nature of its work, the Finance Section in every organisation has a low profile. The <strong>Club</strong>’s Finance<br />
Section is no exception. Members hardly have interaction opportunities with the section staff. However, in the backroom, the<br />
importance of the section cannot be underestimated. It ensures that the books are properly kept and balanced and looks at means of<br />
how to best use the financial resources for the benefit of the <strong>Club</strong> and its members.<br />
In the Development & Maintenance Section are Kenneth Ong and his team of three technicians,<br />
who look after new developments and tackle technical and maintenance matters in all the three<br />
clubhouses. Major projects on his plate are the A&A works at Tessensohn <strong>Club</strong>house and the upcoming<br />
developments works in Changi <strong>Club</strong>house. Similar to finance work, his area of responsibilities does not<br />
require him to have much interaction with members.<br />
Kenneth Ong<br />
Abdul Latiff<br />
A one-man team, Information Technology is another section that does not have much contact with club<br />
members. The Section’s major work is in maintaining the IT systems and computer hardware of the <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
Abdul Latiff, the IT Manager is now driving a new club management system, which will be implemented<br />
in phases from 1 April 2010. With this enhanced and integrated system, the <strong>Club</strong> would be better able to<br />
bring its services and backend controls to the next level. Latiff is also looking at enhancing the current free<br />
wiring surfing service at the three clubhouses. Soon, coverage will be such that at every corner in the <strong>Club</strong>,<br />
members will be able to log on the internet with their laptops.<br />

Peter Chew<br />
Next to the Social Section, the Marketing and Membership Section is probably the team which members<br />
have most interaction with. In stepping up efforts to encourage more public officers to join as club members,<br />
the <strong>Club</strong> is offering a two-year free membership to new public officers joining the service from 1 Jan 2010.<br />
The team is also liaising with government departments to organise road shows at their premises. To add value<br />
to your membership, on the drawing board are initiatives such as Members’ Nights to help members network<br />
to improve work and social interactions. Other new initiatives will involve getting members who have special<br />
skills or hobbies to share their interests and knowledge with fellow members. The section is headed by Peter<br />
Chew who has just come on board.<br />
CLUB NEWS<br />
Michael Wong<br />
Yet another section that works behind-the-scenes is the administration and HR Section. Led by Michael<br />
Wong, the section plays the essential role of staff recruitment and day-to-day administration support to the<br />
corporate office as well as the clubhouses.<br />

MOE Checkmates To Victory<br />
MINISTRY of Education<br />
(MOE) dethroned<br />

champion in the<br />
Public <strong>Service</strong><br />
Chess Competition<br />
held at <strong>Club</strong> CSC<br />
@ Tessensohn on<br />
The chess champions from MOE<br />
Saturday, 6 Mar<br />
10. The event attracted 16 teams from 12 government<br />
agencies. For many years, the championship title had<br />
always been a tussle between the MOH and MOE teams,<br />
with both sides represented by chess masters and former<br />
national players. This year was no different. Both teams led<br />
with the same number of points into the final round but<br />
MOE edged out as the winner after the National University of<br />
Singapore team took two points off the MOH team, winning<br />
the competition with a slim 1.5 point margin. MOE team<br />
member Mr Junior Tay attributed their success to their very<br />
strong team ethic, gathering for ‘makan’ sessions every year<br />
after the event, regardless of the tournament results.<br />
MHA Scores A Goal<br />
It’s all smiles from the mighty MHA football<br />

THE Ministry of Home<br />
Affairs (MHA) clinched<br />
the top and 2nd<br />

recently concluded<br />
Public <strong>Service</strong><br />
Football Tournament.<br />
After two days of hard<br />
fought preliminary<br />
rounds held at the St Wilfrid Field on 20 and 21 March<br />
10, MHA (2) and MHA (4) overcame 27 teams from 19<br />
government agencies to qualify for the finals on 21 March<br />
10. MHA (2) comprising players from the Gurkha contingent,<br />
defeated MHA (4) to take the top spot. Team captain Amrit<br />
Gurung said that it was “awesome” to be the champions<br />
again and for succeeding in defending their title for the<br />
second consecutive year. He credited their win to the<br />
team’s discipline, as well as the close supervision, coaching<br />
and motivation given by their coaches. The team had to<br />
practice their speed and agility due to the short duration of<br />
each game, and had to undergo rigorous fitness training in<br />
the weeks leading up to the competition.<br />

CLIMB Asia Climbing Centre at <strong>Club</strong> CSC @ Tessensohn was bustling with activity on Saturday, 27 Feb 10 as participants<br />
gathered for the annual Public <strong>Service</strong> Rock Climbing Competition. A total of 36 teams representing 8 government agencies<br />
participated in the competition. In the thrilling final of the women’s category, Ministry of Education (MOE) defeated People’s<br />
Association (PA Team 2) to emerge champion. Ministry of Defence edged out Ministry of Home Affairs to emerge champion<br />
in the Men’s Category. Based on points, MOE and People’s Association were declared joint overall champions.<br />
PA Team Convenor Ms Ong Hui Tze said the PA teams were “happy and thrilled” with the overall win shared with<br />
MOE. She attributed their success to engaging a climbing coach as well as training for 2 months. She also said that<br />
it was great to see some team members manage to overcome their phobia of heights and complete the course.<br />
MOE team manager Ms Noorjanna said their victory was unexpected, as the teams’ busy schedules made it hard to<br />
schedule practices for everyone to train. Nevertheless they are “very happy and ecstatic about the win”, and credited<br />
their passion for the sport and strong team bonding for their success.<br />
