I have joined Steemit in the August of 2016, and that is almost one year ago. Since then, I have enjoyed blogging at this platform. I have not really put in much effort to promote Steemit although I have shared the concept of Steemit with a few close friends and have also shared my Steemit posts in my facebook. Recently I have been wondering what I could do either individually or as a team to build up the Malaysian presence at Steemit as well as to get more Malaysians to join Steemit.
Coincidentally I came across a post by @donkeypong Reflections And Tips For International Steemit Members And Growth
Communities. I am inspired by @donkeypong efforts to promote Steemit to international members and to promote both diversity and inclusiveness in Steemit. The potential of Steemit will skyrocket if more people around the globe joined Steemit in huge numbers. I just can't sit on my ass, I need to do something especially for the Malaysian Steemians.
In my effort to do some research on the number of Malaysian Steemians , I discovered this post by @gavvet, I found out that Malaysia with 6,479 users occupies the top 22th spot in terms of ranking by countries and Kuala Lumpur with 3,382 users occupies the 20th spot in ranking by cities. Malaysia has around 6,500 users and if we can work together there is so much that we can do to build Team Malaysia.
@bitrocker2020 had organized a Steemit promotion gathering in Kuala Lumpur to share about his experience with Steemit. That I think is a great effort on the part of @bitrocker2020. With Kuala Lumpur being the capital of Malaysia, it is not surprising that about 50% of the users are from them. In fact throughout almost 1 year period, I only know one other user who is from Kuching, which is where I am from.
Therefore, I will first of all start off by following more Malaysians.
As you can see from my profile, I have 883 followers and I am only following 200 users only. So it is time that I follow more people, and this time I will be giving priority to Malaysian users. So just write down in the comments section, why you think that I should follow you.
A chat channel has been set up at discord, it is called Malaysian Steemian Community (MSC). This is the invitation link athttps://discord.gg/ncuyB9z . Therefore I would like to invite all Malaysian based Steemians and those who blog about Malaysian issues to chat here. This channel was set up by a user from Miri @awesomianist
This is only my first step, and I post in here what other actions that I will take to build up the presence of Malaysian users here and just as important to get more Malaysians on board Steemit.

I am thinking of some promotion in Kuching but only after I come back from my Trans Mongolia trip
Very proud to be part of all of us in #TeamMalaysia!
So stoked to get together in droves and be a force to be reckoned with.
We already have the numbers. We only need to think of how.
Wow... That gives me goosebumps right there!
You are right though. If we just can turn the traffic into actual groups of people with a mission.
There is so much we can do. We should promote the use of teammalaysia tag. Please resteem if you can.
Another positive project you are starting! Super!
Thank you. I hope more Malaysians will join Steemit.

Hey man! New to Steem here but I may be dropping over to Kuching with another Steembro of mine, never been to Kuching before and we're staying there for 20 odd nights. Got any recommendations?
Not a sure thing yet, all depends on JKR Sarawak. @positivesteem
So which part of Malaysia are you from? There are various options available, it all depends on your budget for the hotel.
Following you now.
I'm from Kuala Lumpur. We're looking to stay at Pullman. The only worry now is what to do on weekend nights hahaha. Plus the Premier League is starting on my second weekend there and I HAVE TO WATCH. I am totally unaware of the football scene/culture there, is there any mamak place open or are we talking sports bar? I'm fine either way.
It's a ritual of mine for 10 years now. Never missed even once. Can't afford to do it now that my team is on the bounce.
Pullman is a good hotel. Just pop into one of those sports bar that have a large TV screen and you can enjoy your game.
