Hello!
My name is Shujah Hussain Kiani. I’m from Pakistan. I’ve joined google maps/local guides forum since 2017. Like other forums, this forum is not so much famous in our country. People don’t know about these types of forums or online facilities provided by Google. Due to the low rate of literacy, people even don’t know “How to use these online forums” or “What these forums provided us”.
My goal is to motivate many more people to these types of forums or aware them of the purposes of these forums or to literate them on how to use these forums. I think people should know about advantages of these forums that how helpful these forums are for us in exploring new world.
I hope you all will support me in this regard.
I will write more in this regard as soon as possible.

Thank you, brother, for your support and your kind response. Let’s work together to make these types of forums more helpful for more and more people.
