Saya sangat ingin ikut serta pada acara Asian Games 2018, apalagi setelah melihat pembukaan acaranya yang membuat saya pribadi sangat bangga dengan keragaman Indonesia yang ditunjukkan dalam acara tersebut. Jangan lupa sertakan juga cerita pengalaman Asian Games kamu.
Does road network of Indonesia updated on the Google Maps? It would be very sad if people can see beautiful staduim on Maps, but Google’s directions lead to nowhere…
In Poland new freeways are added to GMaps after 2-3 months. Local roads need a lot of time, too. I never know should I report lack of road every day to speed up the drawing process or do it only one time (and to be uncertain whether this road will ever be on maps or not)…
Two years after closing Map Maker there is still no working tool to add missing road to GMaps.
It’s a good idea to make people at very closer on most amazing moments inside the stadium and keep the community up to date with traffic control road situation and get quick direction to lead a specific place
