Prolog

Jakarta is the capital of the Republic of Indonesia with a population of 10.37 million people by the year 2017. As the capital of the country, Jakarta is heavily populated with various activities of its citizens both in economic, social, cultural, political, sports and art activities.

---

As the nation's capital and national economic and political center, Jakarta has always been an attraction for Indonesian citizens from various regions to pursue their luck. Starting from high skill to unskilled skill Jakarta hopes to work and can improve its economic life. Of course many have failed and many have succeeded. Those who fail and survive will become unemployed and do anything to survive in Jakarta while still waiting for luck. The successful of course will quickly become rich and the life status increases. But the main problem is the inequality that then spread into a social problem.

In Jakarta there are also many communities from various fields, both communities of professional background, social workers, politics, artists, religious to community thugs and shamans.

From the description above, Steemit can be an alternative to solve social problems caused by inequality that occurred in Jakarta. For those who have not had a good job, can take the time to steemit and start accumulating income little by little to sustain life. For those who have succeeded, can use Steemit as a place to invest. So that will indirectly provide solutions to the problem of inequality.

For Steemit itself, Jakarta is a great opportunity and a very promising market for making Steemit users more widespread, not only in Jakarta, but throughout Indonesia. Because by "mastering" Jakarta as the epicenter of Indonesia, the information about Steemit will very quickly spread to other areas in Indonesia.

Atsmosphere of Kalibata City apartemen

From my experience of Steemit and doing a promo-steem in Kalibata City Apartment area, South Jakarta, there is almost no refusal to join Steemit, the average person I told about Steemit greeted her enthusiastically and some immediately enrolled her.

The problem is that Steemit is still very new to Jakarta and the promo-steem is also a bit, the movement is very slow and to realize the potential of Steemit is very loss if there is no policy from Steemit to arrange steps and strategies "seize" Jakarta, and ironically again in the capital of the country as wide Indonesia I have not found and heard there are Steem-Ambassador here. There are millions of Jakarta residents who need Steemit today and there are so many investors in Jakarta who do not know where to invest their stacked money. Unfortunately no one has told them about Steemit...

My Story

---

@dokter-purnama and me (right) in meetup Community Steemit Indonesia chapter Jakarta in "Cangkir Sembilan, April 2018*

My name is Ahmad Mauladi, my friends call me Morenk Beladro and my Steemit account is @beladro. I live in Kalibata City apartment, South Jakarta. My profession is a graphic designer who of course is very familiar with visual communication, marketing and branding activities. I also like music and art activities, so some times I've been a promoter/organizer for music concerts and art performances. And I am also a businessman who runs a coffee shop called “Cangkir Sembilan” located in Tower Herbras, apartment Kalibata City, apartment area where I live inhabited about 20,000 people who life in 18 apartment towers.

Initially I knew Steemit from my friends in Aceh who often spread the post link in Steemit to WhatsApp group that I follow. Because I often get these links, once I open it and finally register in January 2018.

Because I could not directly have an account and have to wait for the password in a few days, I finally forget about Steemit. Remember again a few weeks later when the pliers accidentally saw an email from Steemit, and it was an important email containing my password. Because of busy and not interested, and find a very long password and there is a suggestion to save well, then I save my password in the note of my mobile phone.

Until one day a few months later, came to visit my coffee shop "Cangkir Sembilan" my friends @musismail and @williyana, they introduced @apilopoly, @anggreklestari, @viviemahardika and @andrianhabibi to me. After say hello and talk a bit, that afternoon I left them for a moment for another activity. At night I returned, I saw they were still in the “Cangkir Sembilan” and I joined them, it turns out they are also waiting for me to discuss booking a place for an event they want to organize in “Cangkir Sembilan”. Then they call the event is a community meetup Steemit. That's when I started getting detailed explanations about Steemit from @musismail @apilopoly and @willyana. And right on March 24, 2018 I officially joined Steemit with the first post about a poster of announcement the first meetup of the Community Steemit Indonesia chapter Jakarta.

---

From then on I began to recognize the Steemit community mobilizers from Aceh such as @razack-pulo, @ayijufridar, @doctor-full, @mariska.lubis and others.

Since then I was addicted to Steemit, and started to see great opportunities on the platform founded by Ned Scoot and Dan Larimer. I started doing a promo steem to my friends and customers at “Cangkir Sembilan”, until finally I also founded Steemit Community of Cangkir Sembilan (KSC9) to make steemians that often gather in my coffee shop grow faster. An employee of mine @riezaldi became one of the most active member of KSC9 in Steemit. Steemian members of KSC9 which are also very fast developing are @jkfarza, @zaimrofiqi and @bennpolem.

Me and steemians Jakarta in Cangkir Sembilan

“Cangkir Sembilan” is now one of Jakarta's steemian basecamps. I see this momentum is a chance to quickly implement the strategy and programs planned so that Steemit will grow fast in Jakarta, at least around where I live with 20,000 people in Kalibata City apartemen.

The Reason I Want to Become a Steem Ambassador

---

From the above explanation, where every day I have an opportunity to do a promo steem to the citizens of Jakarta who visited my coffee shop, I wonder why I do not even as I submit myself as a Steem Ambassador, because by becoming a Steem Ambassador of course I have the opportunity to became more knowledgeable about Steemit and could also share my ideas to make Steemit grow fast in Jakarta.

---

The Future Plans as A Steem Ambassador

---

I live in Jakarta for more than 10 years. With my profession as a graphic designer, I am very familiar with the business, creative, social and religious communities in Jakarta. Among them are tens, hundreds to tens of thousands. I see it is possible to invite them to join Steemit if they are able to make the right strategy.

My first step is to increase my capacity as a steemian so that when I do presentations and promo steem to those communities I look pretty capable. And I think, by introducing myself to them as a Steem Ambassador, will give me a lot of confidence.

The second step, I will start making meetup occasions in my coffee shop by inviting communities out of Steemit that I know.

The third step, as a graphic designer, I can certainly use my expertise to create a promo steem in the form of visual and video graphic to be distributed to the members of the community in my network.

So this is my Steem Ambassador Application and I hope my steemian friends in Jakarta, Aceh and Indonesia will support me, especially the Curators and seniors Steem Ambassadors who have been very much help me to be a productive steemian, your sincerly mr. @starkerz and @anarcotech. Thank you.
