LETTER FROM CLUB’s PRESIDENT 

I am pleased to announce and welcome the office bearers for the term 2012/2013. This 

will be my 12th consecutive year serving as the club President and i would like to extend 

my appreciation to the team of Office Bearers for their years of hard work and support. 

At the 97th Annual general meeting, members voted and approved the resolution of 

an additional $700,000.00 to enable additional enhancement works to facilities under 

Phase 3 of the club’s redevelopment. There were also proposed amendments to the 

constitution adopted by the general body. Please read more about the proposed 

amendments in the ensuing pages. 

The club has embarked on the preparations for the csc heritage gallery which 

will be completed in the following months of the year. i would like to urge your 

participation in this purposeful project through the donation of items or artifacts 

relevant to the club’s history. 

As a continuation of our go green initiative, the club has adopted a more proactive 

approach to reach all members via electronic means. besides reducing printing and 

mailing costs, this time-saver will also enable the club to stay connected with members 

as we bring you our latest news, events and offerings. members who registered their 

emails with the club between July and August 2012 will stand a chance to win dining 

vouchers. Kindly refer to the bulletin for more information and we look forward to your full 

support for another successful campaign. 

Drivers may finally enjoy and drink to their hearts’ contents with ease. The Club 

is concerned about members’ safety; hence, we are pleased to introduce valet 

services to ensure that members who drink are driven home safely through this service. more details 

can be found within the Three bars promotional page. 

singaporeans know best when it comes to feasting. gather your family and friends over a brunch buffet 

during the two upcoming holidays – national Day and hari raya Puasa at man Zhu café. 

For the first time in CSC, the Lifestyle section is organising a trekking trip to Mount Rinjani in Indonesia. 

Avid adventure seekers must not miss out on the adventurous virgin trekking trip and do sign up early 

due to limited vacancies. Children would also find joy in creating and savouring “kawaii” bento set in the 

creative Food Art for Kids. 

The management committee and club administration would like to take this opportunity to wish all 

singaporeans a happy national Day. 

shalom and god bless,

FEATURE 

The 97th Annual General Meeting was held at the Activity Suites this year due to the 

ongoing A&A works at the Recreation Complex. It was an intimate event for the 150 

members who attended the meeting at the smaller venue, as the Auditorium (future 

ballroom) was under renovation. 

On behalf of the Chairman, Club Captain Mr Nicholas Lim called the meeting to order as 

he read the Standing Orders for the day and highlighted the presence of the Club’s legal 

advisor, interpreter, appointed auditors and the consultants for the redevelopment project. 

The meeting was informed that all positions in the Management 

Committee and Disciplinary Panel were unopposed. 

In his opening address, Club President Mr Edwin Lee 

thanked the members for attending the general meeting and 

highlighted the factors that contributed to the operating deficit 

of $730,632 for the FY2011. Although the result was better 

than the budgeted deficit of $2.82 million, Mr Lee assured 

that the Management Committee would remain committed 

to find viable solutions to contain operating expenses as 

well as explore ways to generate additional revenue for the 

Club. Mr Lee ended his speech with heartfelt gratitude to 

fellow committee members for their dedication and support 

in transforming CSC into a premier club and also thanked all 

members for their unfailing faith and support. 

On the agenda of the meeting were 3 proposed resolutions in relation to the Club’s Constitution and 1 resolution on 

Phase 3 of the redevelopment project. 

Following Mr Lee’s address, Chairman of Redevelopment Committee, Mr Victor Chia provided an update on Phase 3 

of the Redevelopment Project and the reasons for the proposed resolution for an additional amount of $700,000 over 

the approved $11 million sum for Phase 3 redevelopment project. Mr Chia explained the need for members to approve 

6 

the proposed resolution so that the ongoing work could be completed as planned and the various enhancement work 

to facilities could be carried out. Mr Chia emphasised that the additional amount would not draw down further on 

the Club’s reserves. After some discussion, the resolution was approved and adopted by the majority of the Voting 

Members present. 

After a sumptuous buffet lunch, Chairman of the Ad Hoc Constitution Committee, Mr Lee Chiwi presented and explained 

the rationale for the amendments to the various articles in the Constitution. Amongst the proposed amendments were 

the compulsory registration of spouse and child as Spouse Member and Child Member. The new rule shall apply to 

members who joined the Club after 28 April 2013. Members were invited to partake in the discussion and the relevant 

articles were put to a vote. Members approved and adopted the amendments, saved for Articles 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6. 

A member, Mr Dale Lee proposed an amendment to Article 5.5(c) to include transfer of membership to grandchild 

without the payment of transfer fee. The members approved and adopted the resolution as proposed. 

This was followed by a proposal by Mr Edmund Choo to insert a new Article 3(d) to the Objects of the Club to 

promote honesty and loyalty. The resolution was not approved by the voting Members present. All amendments to the 

Constitution are subject to the approval of the Registrar of Societies. Until such time, the various amendments cannot 

be implemented. 

As there were no other queries received, the Club President thanked all members for their participation and support. 

The meeting was adjourned at 3.05pm. 

For details of the meeting, the unconfirmed minutes of the 97th Annual General Meeting have been mailed to all 

members.

Starting from 26 May to 2 June 2012, the 11th CSC-STTA Table Tennis Championships was held at the Chinese 

Swimming Club Badminton Hall. Evidently, the excitement and competitive spirit amongst players and spectators 

have never ceased through the years as the championships witnessed a never-before record of 852 entries and 

10 veteran teams. The Club’s very own Red team was among the semi-finalists, playing against the eventual winner, 

Happy Table Tennis. 

The Table Tennis Organising Committee would like to extend their appreciation to the Badminton Covenor, Mr 

Roland Lam and the Sub-committee Members for graciously availing the Badminton Hall for this event. Lastly, we 

would like to thank Sin Ten Sports Trading for the generous sponsorships of the official balls. 

Appending are the results of this year CSC/STTA Table Tennis Championships:

Thai Cooking Demo aT Bali Thai ResTauRanT 

23 avid lovers of Thai cuisine attended this cooking demonstration by Bali Thai Restaurant on Sunday, 23 April 

2012 at I12 Katong. The mouthwatering demonstration of Olive Fried Rice, Prawns with Butter and Egg, Mango 

and Papaya Salad caught the attention of the aspiring culinarians. The session concluded with savouring of the 

palatable cuisines. 

soCial DanCe PaRTY 

It was a night of Chinese revelry as suave 

gentlemen were seen dressed in Chinese 

suits and the curvy ladies in their gorgeous 

cheongsams. Much to everyone’s delight, 

the dance fanatics were favoured with a few 

special numbers by an experienced guest 

singer. Congratulations to the 6 Best Dressed 

Ladies and Gentleman of the evening.

DumPling making WoRkshoP 

The workshop held on 3 June benefitted families of the 20 earnest attendees as they would be able to enjoy 

some wonderful tasting homemade Hokkien Five Spice Meat and nonya Rice Dumplings in the upcoming 

Dragon Boat Festival! From the start to the end of the demonstration, the experienced culinarian shared tips and 

advice on the preparation of the various ingredients. There was also the hands-on dumpling wrapping session 

for the aspiring cooks. 

suPeRheRoes 

The youths had an enjoyable time in this educational workshop. The enthusiastic crowd learnt more about fire, 

centripetal force, lightning and elasticity, and many other scientific facts. And how can we not touch on the topic 

of Super Heroes? The little attendees should also know by now that no bite from the spider can ever transform 

you into Spiderboy or Spidergirl.

WYNDHAM WINE 

PAIRING DINNER By Michelle Ng 

Dazzle with wyndham 

george wyndham, the father of Aussie shiraz, must 

have devised a winning formula when he decided to 

plant the first shiraz vineyard down under. Members 

and guests at the wine pairing event enjoyed a 

delectable time of wine appreciation with intimate 

discussion on wyndham’s wines with mr rajan 

menon, senior manager of Public relations and 

brand Ambassador of Pernod ricard. 

28 

The dairy concoction within the cheese Tortellini in basil 

cream might seem a tad overwhelming for the wines, but 

it was undeniably a fantastic union with the sweet, fruity 

and spearmint overtones of the shiraz cabernet 2006. 

The next course was apparently a diva within a sea of 

dark cherry and ripe berry flavours as the delighted 

diners savoured on halibut Fillet wrapped with iberico 

ham paired with the robust shiraz grenache 2007. 

Do not miss the upcoming Banfi Wine Dinner on 21 

August 2012! sign up early to avoid disappointment.

MATTERS 

OF THE HEART 

WOW 

[ Heart Attacks ] Also known as Myocardial Infarction, are caused by a 

blockage that stops the blood flow to the heart. 

Report shows that 15 Singaporeans lost their lives to Cardiovascular 

Disease or stroke everyday. 

What Are Heart Attacks And Their Occurrence? 

Heart attacks happen when blood flow is severely reduced or cut off 

completely due to artery blood clot or arterial plaque. The blood clot 

will caused oxygen deprivation which causes part of the heart muscle 

to die. 

Some Tips To A Heart-Healthy Life 

Control Obesity 

- Include at least 40 minutes of daily workouts (remember to 

start with 10minutes of warm up exercise). Have a brisk walk 

in the park or climb the stairs instead of taking the lift. 

Know What You Eat 

- Keep to a low sodium and sugar intake. 

- Choose low fat and cholesterol food. 

- Consume plenty of fruits, vegetables, soy products, beans 

and legumes. 

- Adopt a high fibre diet (soluble fibres such as vegetables are 

especially beneficial as they help lower cholesterol). 

- Have small meals instead of a big full meal (This also helps 

to boost metabolism rates). 

Quit Smoking 

- Smokers have 2 to 3 times 

higher risks as compared 

to non-smokers. 

Reduce Stress 

Let down your hair and chase away the blues with a visit to the 

Flex gym. Our fun-loving fitness instructors will be there for you. 

Alternatively, take part in the plethora of Lifestyle programs such as 

the MBSR (Mind Balance Stress Reduction), Yoga, or even Dancing! 

Check out page 30 for more details. 

Feeling unwell? It is best to consult professional medical practitioner 

for advise.
