It has been an honour and privilege to serve you as the Chairman of RTI Area 1. My gratitude to all members of this great movement we call "Tabling" and appreciate the efforts each of you have taken to make this year a memorable one. "Unity is Strength" and this year through the collective "Power Of One" we have been able to deliver from our heart as a single unit. We stand committed and steadfast to this movement for it has given us a platform to rediscover ourselves through this journey of self improvement. The joint Area Sports Meet and Trek at Madurai was a fantastic event with great participation from every table. Innovative games like the Paint Ball spiced up things and fellowship was at its best. HRD too had a lot of focus with PTBATs being held in Madurai, Trivandrum & Cochin. We also had the Area Leadership Conclave at Thekkady, the National TTT at Cochin & the Photography Workshop at Kumarakom. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all members of the tabling community in Area 1, especially the team "UniTeam" that helped guide the Area for the tabling year 2011-2012. It is through your hard work, determination, perseverance, attitude, vision, passion and action that the year has been wonderful and the Area witnessing a closer association within its members and with those of the community. Every Table under dynamic leaderships have excelled in what they set out to do covering all facets and ensuring that the individual tradition of the Table lingers on till eternity. The RTI Golden year has given us the opportunity to do more meaningful services to the community through various FTE and non-FTE projects and many Tables in Area 1 have availed the opportunity. I'd like to thank IPC Sejoe & AVC Promod for being with me every step of the way. They are an inspiration and I'm sure Promod will take Area 1 to greater heights. The Area Honorary Tablers Rakesh & Santhosh with their vast experience in tabling were the true guiding spirit behind the scenes and AST Sridhar was a pillar of strength I could fall back on anytime. It was great working with you all towards the single goal of "Service Through Fellowship" through the "Power Of One". We continue to grow, not just by the internal and external extension of the movement, but in our belief that we can achieve what we truly believe as a team. Thank you! Enjoy Tabling Through The Power Of One! Thanks & Regards,

Area 1 is an Area that comprises of a fantastic group of Tablers who epitomize the collective power of one. Fellowship, projects, fundraisers, community service, HRD, be it any pillar of Round Table, Area Chairman LMF Tr. Bejoy Varghese and his team have been the force with the Area this year. Area 1 was well represented for all national events including the 50th National AGM at Chennai and the COB at Mumbai. Tr. Senthil Annamalai of Trichy RT 54 and Tr. Sunil Salunke of Trichur RT 88 represented the Area at the National Executive. Their leadership and contributions were well appreciated by the Tabling fraternity across India. The national initiative 'Train the Trainer' was organized at Cochin, where three Tablers from Area 1 got trained as Round Table India Trainers. We congratulate Area Chairman Tr. Bejoy and Area Secretary Treasurer Tr. Sridhar for an astounding year gone by. The theme 'Power of One' was demonstrated in all aspects of tabling and the area has grown from strength to strength. It's a pleasure to be a Tabler and even more to be an Area 1er. Let us all keep Tabling fun and keep the flag of Table flying high. Yours in Tabling, Tr. Promod Joseph Area Vice Chairman

Address by Area Chairman (Outgoing) LMF Tr. Sejoe Jose addressed the gathering. Excerpts of the speech are given below: Greetings to the chief guest! I first want to thank God Almighty for giving me this opportunity and help me lead Area 1. I remember the time when past Area Chairman Sq. Lg. Sujay and Tr Deepu Paul had come to me at the mid-term asking me to stand for the Area Chairmanship and I accepted the same. Though I was still in two minds, but at GCRT 102 stag trip my Table sends my nomination.
All was well while being the Area Vice Chairman. But then at Madurai last year when I took up the post of Chairmanship, the fear sank into me. The reason being, the history says that if one has to be area chairman you should have a family business and during the chairmanship you take a sabbatical from business and rest of the family members will cover for your absence. But for me I am one man show and also being in committee of other organisation like CII, SKAL and KTM.
I have also heard that the opportunity of being the chairman of Area 1 is greatest opportunity to develop oneself. Keeping both the positive and negative in mind I was ready to move on and lead Area 1. I would now like to share a video which will help me explain how I could lead area 1 as in area 1 you are not alone . As past national President Tr. Vivek theme stated Together we can Together we will ( A very moving video
presentation on togetherness ensued which depicted a child taking the initiative to clear a tree blocking the road and all onlookers who were just watching till then joining in the fray and clearing the road )
I take this opportunity to thank my Area Board for the excellent support during the year. I thank GCRT 102 for being there for me throughout the year. I thank all of you for your support and cooperation.
I also want to thank my parents and friends and two important people in my life my daughter Mariam and wife Diya who made lot of sacrifice and helped me be Area Chairman and lead Area 1.
28
I would like to say to all Tablers of Area 1, that there is a saying that Round table gives you a lot and by taking responsibilities we give back to the wonderful movement. But I would like to correct, my friends that you are not giving but actually taking more by taking up responsibilities as you would learn more and make you a better person.
Wishing AVC Tr. Bejoy and team all the very best for a great year. I am sure Bejoy will make Area 1 grow. I sign off by saying: - Keep Smiling Keep Shining Let Area 1 Grow

Dear Tablers, Let me first congratulate our Area Chairman LMF Tr Bejoy Varghese and AST LMF Tr S.R.Sridhar for the wonderful year. Area 1 in International relationship started with a bang with MRT14 hosting the world 14 meet at Madurai. With a good start there was nothing to look back for Area 1. All Tables of Area 1 hosted few International Tablers who were travelling in our region. Hosting the YAP delegates by the Tables of Area 1 was another feather in the CAP. In addition few Tables of Area 1 had gone for International trips as part of outstation table meetings. Each Tabler of Area of Area 1 on personal level also did their contributions towards International relationship. Those who travelled abroad ensured that they would meet the Table of that Country and exchange pins, Tr Kichu of KRTRT 121 and Tr Kuraikose of TBRT 126 are the best examples. Once again thank you all at Area 1 for all your co-operation and wishing our Incoming Area Chairman Tr Promod all the best for the year ahead. Thanks LMF Tr Sejoe Jose
38
Dear Tablers,
Taking up our Area Chairman's offer of a relaxed post in the Area Board was in my mind a safe bet. The post of Southern Star Editor seemed like a job, in BVs words, which was an end of the year affair where Tablers would be sending in articles and photos in the hundreds and my duty was to collate edit and put together neatly in a trendy magazine for the year. Little did I know that one had to be a master in the art of begging, cajoling and arm-twisting to get anywhere with this job. But nevertheless I hope that the magazine has come out well. It is going in to print as this is being written and hope to be in every Area1 Tablers hands in the coming weeks.
All said it was an enriching experience, thanks to LMF Tr. Bejoy Varghese it was a pleasure working with him and our ever resourceful team. Thank you all for the opportunity and please send me your feedback once the Southern Star is in your hands.

LMF Tr. S. Raja Area Projects Convenor Projects Convenor`s Report Tabling Year: 2011 2012. Dear Tablers, Dear Tablers,It's my privilege to thank the Area Chairman, LMF. Tr. Bejoy Verghese for bestowing me with the great responsibility of handling the main Portfolio of Round Table India`s main theme called Freedom Through Education, as the Project convenor for Prestigious AREA 1 with my chairman`s theme called THE POWER OF ONE, for the Year 2011 -2012. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of my role as the Project convenor, as many tables had taken up the FTE Projects this year. RTIF and RTIT in association with P & G, has contributed enormous funds to promote the FTE Projects to earmark the 50th GOLDEN JUBILEE, celebrations passion and style during the year. All the tables of AREA 1 had contributed and done various FTE Projects during the year and the details are placed hereunder: Starting with MRT 14 has completed the Renovation work at Balwadi School at the cost of Rs.1 Lac. TRT 54 has kick started the FTE Project worth Rs.30 Lacs and it is under construction with 4 classrooms; a Kitchen Block and compound wall at ADHI DRAVIDAR SCHOOL at Nathakadu; 40 Kms away from Trichy. RSRT 158 has completed the MPK Pudhupatti Panchayat Union School with 1 Class room at the cost of Rs.3.50 Lacs, and they have applied for RTIF grant for Viswanatha Nadar School project with 7 Class rooms for Rs.30 Lacs and it is under construction.

Regards, Yours in Tabling with the POWER OF ONE, LMF.Tr. S.RAJA, Project Convenor

Dear Tablers, Plans for the year were quite up there during the start of the year as is for almost every convenor I guess. Tr. Bejoy Varghese our Area Chairman was quite hopeful that I would deliver as a Corporate Alliance convenor this year. The idea was to have every area of tabling roped in by things that people do normally.....Buying cars or having a meal at a popular restaurant, holidaying in nearby resorts , Shopping white goods and daily use items was something everyone did. I thought it would be a great idea if a percentage of the money spent on all these things by Tablers went into FTE projects for tabling. Especially, since it was a fact that most of the above regular things to do would have something to do with another Tabler. Either a resort would be owned by a Tabler or most showrooms - be it white goods or car dealers are owned by Tablers in the city. Easy Peezy Lemon squeezy.. I thought. Flash a card at each of this stores/destination. Have each of these stores display a roundtable logo... (Publicity) and get everyone to offer a small discount to the Tabler. The discount offered or a portion of it was supposed to go to FTE. Concept- Brilliant I thought. Little did I realise that the project I thought I'd deliver on was something which required a lot more manpower and a system which would take a lot more effort and mainly time. I don't think anything is not doable. The scale at which I had ideated and the issue of not being able to travel to all destinations to achieve it left me wondering on how I would achieve this. Also, I hear that there were similar initiatives earlier at the National Level which didn't really take off. The Magnitude of the idea got the better of me folks.. I should have tried to achieve this objective stage by stage. Next time for sure. As far as corporate alliance at the Area Level is concerned... It really went nowhere from where I took it on..I hope to make amends by contributing to tabling in whichever way possible in the years to come. Fellowship and other facets of tabling, I have been very much a part of and that's pretty much the reason for most of us to be a part of this wonderful movement. Area Chairman Tr. Bejoy... You have been a great leader for Area One. Thanks very much for having me in your board in SPIRIT. It was great fun indeed. The Power of One vested by you this year remains. Looking forward to fun times in tabling. Yours in Tabling
42
Dear Tablers, It has been a very active year of fellowship at Area 1. Enjoyable Socials across Tables in Area 1 and good participation by Area 1 families in most of the Area events! It has been a pleasure being the Area Fellowship Convenor of Area 1 and I wish to thank Area Chairman Tr. Bejoy Varghese for giving me this opportunity. Yours in Tabling, Tr. Sonu
43
Dear Tablers, It has been privilege for me to serve Area 1 as the publicity convenor not only because I saw the role as one that was fulfilling but more so because of the fellowship and support of my fellow Tablers in the endeavour. The year was one that saw all Tables in Area 1 participate actively and it is hard for me to highlight just a few when each Table made an effort to ensure that their respective projects and activities got all the publicity they deserved. However, I would like to highlight a few events that were most noteworthy. Publicity Events of the year MRT14 Food FEST- Unlike many other food fests organized in most urban settings, the Tabler of MRT 14 decided to do something different. The Suvai Durbar generated huge publicity not because it was another wonderfully organized food fest but for something as special as the Guinness Dosa Attempt which was covered by leading TV channels like NDTV, IBN and some of the leading FM stations as well as getting widespread coverage in all the leading English and Tamil newspapers. MRT really outshone themselves in the event. GCRT102- Publicity has not always been about just entertaining events in Area 1 and GCRT's 102 helped to showcase their HRD program at St. Thomas School in all the leading newspapers in Cochin. It was really satisfying to see the effort put in by all the Tablers for an event with such great value. KRTRT121- Another noteworthy event was the superb food Festival organized by the Tablers of 121. It was an event par excellence and the food was simply mouth watering. In fact the event was so well organized that it received a lot of attention from the press and electronic media and was greatly appreciated by RTI as well. TBRT126- Among my favourite events of the year was the butterfly garden at Valapillashala. A very unique effort by the Tablers, and one that was aptly covered by the media. It just goes to show that Tablers can do more than just organize the usual events! CBRT131- Love on the brink, a fundraiser by the Tablers of 131 got a lot of publicity in the local media, which included the Deccan Chronicle, Times of India and the Indian Express. RSRT158- If Love on the Brink got a lot of publicity for 131 then the musical organized by the Tablers of 158 was an even greater hit with the people who attended the gala event. Needless to say it was also covered across all local media. CRT71- Infamous for their ability to organize the best parties in town, their New Year party was a grand success with noteworthy sponsors like The Muthoot Group and Mercedes Benz funding one of the greatest events of the year in Cochin. The event was attended by Tablers and their families across Area 1 along with a large number of Square Legs and there was a good mix of old and new age music provided by a live band followed by a DJ. ERT214- Even our youngest Table in the Area was not to be outdone and they came through with their own when the much talked about 'Sevens' football tournament was organized with resounding success followed by a well attended dinner at the Dreeme hotel. It seems some had to take their disability pension in advance and even in this matter we had our Area Chairman leading from the front!!! The following lines cannot even begin to describe the support I have received from all the Tables and their respective publicity convenors. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your efforts, enthusiasm and those crazy pictures! As always the Tables of Area 1 have lead from the front and my role as the Publicity convenor was greatly enhanced by the support and the enthusiasm shown by all. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for this opportunity and wish the future Publicity convenor all the best. Yours in tabling, Sharath Pulimood Area 1 Publicity Convenor, CRT 71

Dear Tablers, First of all I thank the Area chairman Tr. Bejoy for selecting me to serve as the Area Extension Convener (Area 1) for the period of 2011-12. Hope I have fulfilled at least some of his expectations. Even though there were no table extensions this year, we have seen so many inductions in many of the tables amidst few retirements and resignations. I think this is a welcome sign. MRT14 stands first in having highest number of active Tablers and sadly TRT 54 yet to induct more Tablers to achieve the average table strength of 15. As you all know fun was not lacking in the previous entire tabling year, be it at the I AEX or III AEX, fellowship was at its peak. Once again I thank AC Tr. Bejoy, AST Tr. Sridhar, and AVC Tr. Promod and not last but the best my own Table NRT 176 for giving me an excellent support (3 inductions). Thank you all Regards Tr. Dr. Muthuraj C.

LAPD 2011-12 has helped create a Sustainable Platform for the Development of Leadership, Character, Comradeship and the
Ideal of Service After a long gap orientation programs for Tablers were conducted. Three PTBAT (Proud To Be A Tabler) programs were conducted. The objective of these programs was to give Tablers a better understanding of Tabling and in helping them, perform better as Tablers. With the objective of taking things further, a Area Leadership Conclave was conducted at Thekkady to inspire Tablers to Lead, Engage, Aspire, Perform With the objective of overall d e v e l o p m e n t o f Ta b l e r s , a P h o t o g r a p h y Tr a i n i n g w a s conducted at Alleppey by renowned photographer Balan Madhavan With the objective to create a sustainable LAPD platform And new heights for Area 1 LAPD, a Training The Trainer was conducted at Cochin.

I take this opportunity to thank our Area Chairman Tr. Bejoy Varghese for entrusting me this prestigious job.
This year, Twinklers from all Tables of Area 1 have had many activities including the talent show. I have to mention that TRT54 took their twinklers to The HINDU press and showed the children how the newspapers were printed. The saying goes that normally you never forget the first experience in any activity. I just hope that the experiences of all the twinklers were memorable.
Cheers!

As a convener for 41ers was a relatively new initiative at Area 1, we started the year by encouraging Tables of Area 1 to host a social for 41ers during RTI week or in the week preceding the 41st day of the year. Another initiative of my tenure was the launch of a website dedicated to the square legs of Area 1. This website will serve as a connect for Tablers of Area 1 with the past stalwarts of the Round Table movement at Area 1. The website is access controlled and contains among others, contact details of all square legs of Area 1. As this is intended as a sustainable initiative, the website can be updated periodically by the Area IT Convener in conjunction with the 41ers Convener. I would like to thank Area Chairman Tr. Bejoy Varghese and Area IT Convenor Tr. Mohan for the guidance and support in driving this project at Area 1.

I thank the Area Chairman, LMF Tr Bejoy Verghese for bestowing me with the responsibility of handling the IT related maPers for Area 1 for the year 20112012. I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the role, and during this period I had an opportunity to interact, and enjoy the company of a lot many tablers in the Area.
The activities related to the IT arena kick started with creating a forum for communication amongst the newly appointed AEX and Table Office Bearers. To this effect, going with the theme of the tabling year, we created the 'Uniteam Google Group'. All the AEX related communications were routed through this group. The group was formed pretty quickly and went on to become the backbone of communications among the group.
Whatsapp and Way2SMS We had created this group initially so as to have an alternate for AEX and TOBs who may not be online all the time. But due to restrictions in using these forums, both technologically and monetarily, we discontinued it later on during the year.
Area Calendar The accuracy and upkeep of the Area Calendar was one of the primary functions in this role. The following activities were done during the current year.

The Area Calendar was set to repeat reminders only until Dec 2011, and hence we had an outage in sending reminders during the initial months of 2012.
Many of the new tablers', and new table's (ERT214) data were to be uploaded in to the Area Calendar.
Nearly 350 entries were redone in the calendar (including many of the Sq. legs information, as much as we got)
All these entries were set to repeat YEARLY. So from now on, these reminders will keep coming in to the RTI Area Group FOREVER, until the group is active.
RTI Area1 Email Group We have a very active RTI Area1 Email Group. We have moderated the group so that only RTI related matters are circulated and unrelated matters are not forwarded.
Facebook & TwiBer: Facebook and twiPer are two strong social media tools we have today in our midst. So this year instead of a Blog, which is 'text' heavy; we chose to use these two platforms to connect to tablers in the area and across the world.
We have updated the FB page regularly with news feeds of tabling events across the area, and we are proud to have 305 likes in the FB page, which is more than double of what we started with in the beginning of the tabling year. This clearly shows the reach the FB page has got. More insights on our FB page following is given below in the charts.
53
As you can see when there is an update the usage surges, so its important to keep the postings on the Area page up, always.
54
From Sweden to South Africa, from Madagascar to Malta, we have people from all over the world following our FB page; this goes on to prove that FB is the best way to share our activities not only in the Area , but also get more visibility in Round Table India and Round Table International.
55
The above chart shows the Gender and Age distribution amongst the visitors of the RTI Area1 FB page. FB and Twitter works hand in glove, so we have linked our RTI Area1 Twitter page along with the FB page. So when ever the IT Convenor updates the FB page it automatically updates the twitter page and further enhances the reach of the event. We are yet to be as successful with our twitter page unlike the FB page, we only have less than 50 followers on that page. Clearly tablers are more in to FB than twitter. Www.rtiarea1.com We have purchased the above URL for hosting a our own Area1 Website. Unfortunately, we have not been able to deliver a website during the current year.
Content collection challenges ruled more than the technology ones. But then we have every reason to cheer for the reach of our FB page; may be even with the best of websites we may not be able to gather so much traffic. As the year comes to a close, I would like to thank each and everyone of you in Area 1 who made my job a pleasurable one. It was a privilege to be a part of this year's AEX, and Area 1 truly rocks ! Before we forget, go and like that FB page of ours and follow it at www.facebook.com/RTIArea1 Together with the 'Power of One' ! Cheers, Tr Mohan K , ERT214 Area1 IT Convenor, 2011-12

Inter Area Sports Meet Jaffa @ Bangalore, December 2011 Area 1 had one of the highest representations for JAFFA-inter area cricket tournament held at Bangalore during December 2011. We had as many as 30 Tablers participating in the event from across the area. We lost the match to area 7 in the last over but that did not hinder our Tablers from being on high spirits. Area Sports Meet & Area Trek March 24th & 25th 2012 This year's edition of the Area sports meet and Area trek was organized at Madurai. The first day of the event had badminton, tennis, snooker and table tennis at Union Club. Badminton winner was Bechu from CBRT131 and runner up Tr. Rajiv of MRT 14. Table tennis winner Tr. Rishwanth of MRT 14 a state player in table tennis and I am sure he will be winning many more trophies in area sports meets and runner up Tr. Hinfas of CBRT 131.
Snooker winner Tr. Rajesh of MCRT 99 and Runner Tr. Vikram, MRT 14. Tennis winner Pradeep NRT 176 and the runner up was Tr. Lakshan MRT 14. In the evening cricket was organized at Hotel heritance, with some new rules in place for the matches, Tablers took time to adjust to the new rules but once they got the hang of it we saw some power packed performances under lights. Cochin the underdogs in the finals against Kottayam (2011 winners) came out on top. Area Chairman Bejoy took a blinder of a catch to win the match for Cochin. The cricket convener for the event was Tr. Jayapradeep of MRT 14 who did a phenomenal job of making everyone happy which is never easy. Area trek was organized at Swarnabhoomi a hillock on the way to natham. Tr. Zafar of MRT 14 and Area trek convener Tr. Luke guided the trekkers to the crown of the hill. All the participants had a wonderful time. MRT 14 Badminton (5), Tennis (5), Snooker (5) Table tennis (10) Total 25 MCRT 99 Snooker (5)

KRTRT 121 Cricket (5) CBRT 131 Table tennis (5), Cricket (10) Total 15 NRT 176 Tennis (10) ERT 214 Badminton (10) We had representations from almost all tables in the area with QRT 85 being the best participating table to have travelled to the meet. I think we can be proud to say that we delivered one of the best sports meet in Area 1. I would like to thank all Tablers of MRT 14 and MCRT 99 for their support in organizing the event and special thanks to the hosts Promod, JP, Dr. Vijay, Sunder, Senthil, Sanjay, Lakshan, Anwar and Nikunj. This event would not have been possible without the inputs of Tr. Bejoy, Tr. Promod and Tr. Sridhar. I would also like to thank my CoConvener Tr. Vishnu, Tr. Nagaraj, Sq. Leg Manoj, Sq. Lg. Riaz, Tr. Rishwanth, Trek Convenor Tr. Luke and H.T. Jagdish for their help and support and Tr. Samith Thilak for inputs from the previous sports meet. Tr. Vikram

WORKSHOP DISCUSSION
TOPIC I: Points to Ponder: To discuss the necessity of the promotion of Greeting Cards. Round Table India is promoting Go Green initiatives. Sales of Greeting Cards are falling year on year. To discuss the utilisation of remaining funds in the RTI Area 1 Account. Over the years the Area Account has accumulated about INR. 6 lakhs. The Area does not have a Charitable Society/Trust registered. To discuss collection method of New Member fee of INR. 100. When a member is inducted, an amount of INR. 100 is due to the Area.
MOTION - I
Proposed By the RTI Area 1 Executive (AEX) It is proposed to create a fund for the Area AGM by collecting INR.1000 per active Tabler through the D Form which is adjusted/refunded against complete registration of the active Tabler couple or single if he is not married. Rules Committee: Not affecting rules. Simple Majority Required. Explanation / Reasoning / Process: Year on year, we find that the expenses towards the Area AGM increasing. Seed money is required by the host table(s) to provide advances towards reservation of halls, accommodation, transportation, etc. Being the Area AGM, the support of every active Tabler in the Area is required and hence an amount of INR.1000 per active Tabler will be collected through the D Form. This amount (INR.1000) that is collected will be adjusted/refunded against the complete registration costs of the active Tabler. In case the Tabler is married, the adjustment will be against the couple registration and if he is single, the adjustment will be against the single registration. For e.g. if the Couple registration cost of the Area AGM is INR.6000 and the Single registration cost is INR.4000, then the married active Tabler pays INR.5000 and the single active Tabler pays INR.3000 towards complete registration cost of the Area AGM after deducting the Rs. 1000 paid with the D form. Presently there is no provision in the D Form to collect any amount towards the Area AGM fund. Hence, an additional entry will be made in the D Form (along with the names of the active Tablers) to carry this collection. New members of the tables in RTI Area 1 who are inducted during the tabling year and whose names do not appear in the D Form will have to pay the complete registration cost of the Area AGM without any adjustment/refund.
