okay... was asked to take charge of the emcee, supposedly to be provided by nikon singapore. seeing that the event is tomorrow evening , so i'd thought i'd best prepare a draft the emcee script (while stuck in a boring meeting that i cannot slip out of...)

this is based broadly on the outline provided earlier, but i do have some questions which may require some clarity.
e.g.
i) Video - when would you like to screen the video? I have put it after the GOH speech, but it could go before the address or even before the cake cutting (logisitics allowing).
ii) Slideshow - is there still a separate slideshow going on?
iii) GOH enterance - from the initial programme, i read it that there is no grand enterance of the GOH, but rather he will come in and mingle as well. If not, there may be a need for a holding room.
iv) GOH exit - will it be a "soft exit" as well? meaning, no annoucement of his leaving? I assume that he will stay for the full hour up to the cake cutting.
v) That's The End? - how would you like to close off the evening? e.g. after the cake cutting, admin to say a few words, possibly also tie together with the GOH leaving?

incidentally, i have an important meeting on friday pm, so i would not be able to get there early for setup... but will get there asap after the meeting at thompson rd.
