The opening ceremony began with the reading of Surat Al-Fatihah combined directly by the MCs, Sasa Umiyati, and reading the holy verses Al-Quran by Ifan and Nissa.
In his greeting, General Manager of Ust DDHK. Ahmad Fauzi Qosim welcomed and thanked the invited guests and all the congregation (BMI Hong Kong) who came. He invited all the congregation to sing a song Life Frame so that they are more excited.
Ustadz Triono Hari Kuncoro alias Kang Kun conveyed tips on being a good Public Speaker and the factors that influence it, such as internal factors, namely confidence, confidence, and broadening your heart and insight.
External factors, namely having to understand the audience and have a tool or place, regulate breathing, and understand the topic of events and talks.
"Being an emcee or MC and during the speech you should not be nervous," he said. "Nervous people are not aware of what they are doing and nervousness can also be overcome by taking a breath, looking in the mirror, and talking or singing to yourself," he added.
He explained that there are three important components in speech, namely vowels, expressions and gestures.
After being given a theory, participants were asked to practice and test directly in front of other participants. About 120 participants (BMI Hong Kong) took part in the training.
According to DDHK's Ulil Albab Coordinator, Yuni Shandriya Ratmoko, this event aims to mentally train the da'wah cadres so that they know the procedures for speaking in an assembly.
"Ulil Albab's cadres are really concerned with the public, so with this training they will know how to deal with it," he said. (Tati Tia Surati / ddhongkong.org). *
