"Truly, you are our inspiration Choral Speaking Angels. Congratulations and we are so proud of you. We love you all brothers, sisters!" said a primary school boy from SJK(C) Yuk Kong.

"We are so proud of you, Intan (the conductor) and the whole choir. You are blessed with leadership skill. Thank you for sharing your gifts with the whole world. Keep up the good work and may God continue to bless you and keep you safe," said Ms. Christine Stanislaus Kinsik, the deputy director.

According to the choral group's instructor, Khairunisa Syafiqah Osli, the CSA started last year with founders Mr. Mark Bin Medi and Mr. Ibrahim Ismail armed with the goal of "preserving the love of the nature/environment through English language."

The new coach, Ms. Nurazilah Othman said the choral speaking has been active, practising extensively for performances and competitions.
