Although we did several local virtual meet-ups, this is my first experience as a host for global virtual meet up and first time for Tangerang Local Guides too. It was awesome experience! As we can have the interactions with so many local guides from other countries. This topic of this meet up: Rules and Regulations of Local Guides, was inspired by our conversation in the our group chats about local guides activities and its rules. Therefore we decided to conduct this virtual meet up with this special topic which might be useful for everyone as a local guides.
This is the last virtual meet up of Ramadhan Festive Local Virtual Meet Up series which organized by Tangerang LG, we conducted every week during Ramadhan with various topic.
This time, we invited two speakaers, @BudiFXW and @NunungAfuah . Budi is one of senior LG from Bogor. West Java Indonesia and connect live 2018 attendee. He has lot of experience and actively writing in connect also contributing in google maps. While Nunung is well known as one of Connect Moderator from Indonesia living in Blitar, East Java Indonesia. Nunung also Local Guides Summit 2017, Connect Live attendee 2018, 2019. And we have a super master of quiz @Radjasitanggang which made this meet up more FUN with some *cam prizes a.k.a camera prize instead door prizes because there was no door . However this time the cam prizes only for Indonesia colleagues.
In the beginning of the session, Budi was made a disclaimer that he is just like everyone else, a local guides which happy to share his experienced to everyone. He presented in Bahasa Indonesia but the presentation material was in English (slide presentation is available in the photo album)
Budi presented about the “Common Local Guides Policy Disobedience” which highlighted 8 important points for us as a local guides. These are the 8 points:
- Spam & Fake Content,
- Off Topic,
- Restricted Content,
- Illegal Content,
- Offensive Content,
- Dangerous & Derogatory Content,
- Impersonation and
- Conflict of Interest.
Before second speaker, we did a Quiz which hosted by Radja, an awesome quiz master. Everyone was so excited because we prepared some interesting Cam Prizes. The quiz based on the materials of the speaker, to make sure everyone is following Budi’s presentation.
Move to the next session with the second speaker - Nunung. Nunung was delivered her session in English and Indonesian. She is a Connect Moderator from Indonesia, she lived in Blitar, East Java Indonesia. Nunung was shared about her journey as a local guides became a Connect Moderator. It was long journey with persistent and consistent effort. She was inspired by first Indonesia Connect Moderator @iyudhi who is based in USA right now. Her story was so inspiring, as not many people become connect moderator. She also encourages everyone to do the same like her. Be persistent! Thanks Nunung.
Before continuing to the next session for Quizzes and Q&A session, Angie was sharing her appreciation about this virtual meet up which is not only informative but also FUN. She enjoyed attending this virtual meet up. Even though she loves to see everyone, she has to leave early. Once again, thank you for coming and your active participation mbak Angie.
