I was at the Radio 1003 studio for the second time. This time, I guess I am more mentally prepared and hence felt less nervous and more confident compared with the first time when I was there last Sunday.
For those of you who are keen as to how it looks like inside the Radio 1003 studio located inside the SPH Building at Toa Payoh North, I have requested our show presenter, Wilson Ng, to take a photograph of me while I am talking on air. Take a look at the huge earphones that I was wearing and the huge microphone that I need to speak into!
During this second episode, I spent most of it answering the many gardening-related questions that listeners had sent via SMS to the studio. Before the radio show ended at 7 pm, an announcement for a gardening sharing session delivered by me in Mandarin that is due to take place next week was sounded to all listeners. The synopsis and details of the sharing session are given below:
From Garden to Kitchen Series (Part 2): “Vegetable Gardening for Beginners”
Vegetables gardening can be rewarding and wonderful experience, especially when you harvest your own crops! In this workshop, the speaker, Mr Wilson Wong, will share with the audience his experience in vegetables gardening and how you can start a vegetable plot from scratch. He will start by giving an introduction of what are the basic garden tools that one needs, tips on how to select a good site for vegetable gardening, ideas to design a beautiful vegetable garden, techniques required for land preparation and steps to construct your own raised beds for vegetables cultivation. He will also have a demonstration on how one can make seed raising and seedling transplantation easy.
This session is brought to you by the Community In Bloom Programme, in partnership with Green Culture Singapore and the National Library Board.
Date : 21 Jun 2008 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Venue : Geylang East Community Library (Merpati Hall, Level 3)
Fees: Free!
Your studio photo presentation lacks something – a couple of potted plants!
A couple of years ago, I felt sad sometimes when I see old folks sitting in void decks without any sense of purpose. Today, it is not uncommon to find seniors gardening away and doing their excercises without realising it. Your selling of the gardening “koyoh”(plaster) on radio and talks have done much in giving people hope and opportunity. Well done, Wilson
