I have a strong will to encourage Indonesian to join Steemit. We are in the 5th rank of the biggest population in the world but the number of Steemian from Indonesia is even less than from Nigeria. Indonesia has a big potential for Steemit, just check our population in FB and Tweeter. The main problem that I consider as a challenge is not about to make more Indonesian to join Steemit but also to assure them to create original works. Rewards is always make people happy, but it also can encourage people to do bad things such as plagiarism. So according to my opinion, i have to not only promote steemit but i should combine it with writing lessons or other creative programs. I should assure them that being original creators is the priority, and that is more than just got the reward in term of upvotes. Steemit is a good start to join history of the world changes toward a better world, and it requires creativity, consistency, honesty, and honour.
I am a teacher and writer, I have my students and fans throughout my country. I am sure I can promote Steemit everywhere but I need support to help those who join willing to be original and creative. I have some programs in the real world, and I will take some of my programs implemented with blockchain technology and promoted in Steemit, as examples for Indonesian how to be a good Steemian that not only got rewarded by upvotes but with honour as well.
I hope you can help me with this. Thank you.
Hello @mariska.lubis!
That is exactly what I think. New people need to be taught that this platform isn't about quick money, and don't even reward those who seek it. I am making a group in which promoters and newcomers can help each other and we also provide curation.
You seem perfect for the group. Mind to contact me on steemit.chat or Discord?
Awesome stuff guys!! i think @futurethinker has clearly written a better response than i can on this one! STEEMON!
i totally agree with you and I am willing to join...
