ORATOR-1 DAY PRACTISE OR MORE??





Before this, i am always wondering, what makes people love to talk or give speeches to public? What kind of thinking they have that enables them to use their words to capture people’s attention? Are they were born to be an orator? Did somebody training them? Is it their popularity that makes audience close with them? Or maybe, they are given something special that others don’t have..


Barrack Obama for example, is a good example of a good orator. He manages to catch his people’s heart. They give trust to him! And even he is not the best politician in America’s history, but then American accepts him as one of the best speaker. He really means every words of him. Looking into his eyes, will make us believe that his ideas come together with proves. Just like what Benjamin Franklin (American entrepreneur, statesman, scientist and philosopher) said, ‘Here comes the orator with his flood of words and his drop of reason’.......


When Kimora Lee Simmons (a fashion designer and a business woman) got nervous and almost crying when she was asked to talk in front of more than a hundred people, I was surprised! She is an icon, as well as a public figure that has a dominant role on attracting not only paparazzi but also the whole world’s attention. But then, at the same time, as a normal human being, she also has weaknesses. An orator is not everyone, but someone! And we don’t call people like Dr Mahathir Mohammad and Donald Trumps as a good speaker for nothing if they can’t even being a little bit extraordinary compare to other when presenting their opinion and decision!



Actually, not all of us have

this special give. Certain people can control their feeling and emotion. This people normally will always be the first one that will put their hand up, volunteering to speak in front of others. These people one day will concur the world with the best idea and will speak their people’s voice loudly in order to support their generation’s future…….
