In a recent LinkedIn post, Crystal Lim shares a lighthearted account of her experience at a Chinese New Year (CNY) event, highlighting humorous moments and the value of positive networking.
Crystal Lim recounts an amusing interaction, or near-interaction, with Malaysia’s Minister of Housing and Local Government, YB Tuan Kor Ming Nga, who is known for promoting the “Bersih, Menawan, Wangi” (Clean, Charming, Fragrant) toilet campaign. Lim humorously notes her impulse to ask the minister if he “need[ed] Toifie Queen to help promote Malaysia’s nice toilets?”, though she ultimately refrained from voicing the jest.
“Do you need Toifie Queen to help promote Malaysia’s nice toilets?” – I nearly said that to our Minister of Housing and Local Government, YB Tuan Kor Ming Nga who promotes BWM toilet (Bersih, Menawan, Wangi).
Navigating Social Events with Humour
Beyond the minister’s campaign, Crystal Lim also shared a relatable social faux pas. She admitted to forgetting the event’s dress code, arriving in smart casual attire while most attendees were dressed in festive red. This detail adds a layer of personal anecdote to her post, making it more engaging for her audience.
As Crystal Lim points out, the seating arrangement for lunch proved to be quite fortunate, with a touch of humour and a nod to traditional beliefs:
Wahh.. my seat at lunch was really very “ong”! Good feng shui!
Lim further elaborated on the lively atmosphere, mentioning the presence of Dato Combat, who even performed a song near her table, a moment she captured and shared on her Instagram.
The Power of Positive Connections
The core of Crystal Lim’s message, however, revolves around the significance of networking with like-minded individuals and supportive brands. She expressed gratitude towards Racheal Tan and Wellous Group for the invitation, acknowledging Wellous’s commitment to giving back and supporting others.
According to Crystal Lim, these connections foster a positive environment:
It’s always such a joy to be in the company of brands / companies and friends who share the same positive vibes, generosity, and spirit of uplifting one another.
Crystal Lim concludes her post by wishing everyone a Happy Sunday, reinforcing the uplifting and positive tone of her shared experience. Her post serves as a reminder of the blend of humour, personal reflection, and the importance of supportive professional relationships in the business world.
