For many people in Cambodia, Google Maps is only for navigation.
But actually, it is much more than that.
It helps people make decisions.
It helps businesses grow.
It helps communities stay accurate and visible.
So I’m organizing a small Meet-up in-person sharing session in Takeo.
Date: 21 Feb 2026
- Time: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM
- Location: Takeo
- Around 5-10 participants
This is a 2-hour practical sharing session.
Not too formal.
More discussion.
More real examples from Cambodia.
