Team Malaysia Babes | The Community

If you are a regular reader of my posts you might notice that I have been using a new tag regularly for the past one month. It is the #teammalaysiababes tag. I also posted about going to Team Malaysia Babes first ever meetup here. I haven't written a proper introduction to this #teammalaysiababes thingy in any of my posts and since the group is growing and more exciting activities are in the planning, it's time to do some sort of formal intro of the group to my followers/readers.

Team Malaysia Babes is the first initiative for women in Steemit Malaysia community. It was created to provide sisterhood support to all women regardless of who or where they are, or what is their status. The group is still tiny compared to other initiatives but so far the community consists of entrepreneurs, single women, working mothers, single mothers, cancer survivors, stay at home mothers etc. Even though we come from different background, we are all equal. We do not differentiate one another by our labels because all women are equal. And we welcome all women (and men) to participate in this community by participating in our future events/collaborations and you can use the tag #teammalaysiababes in your posts. We will try our best to support everyone's posts by upvoting, commenting and resteeming.

This community is a brainchild of @angiechin28 with a strong support from me. It all started with the first Steemit Ladies Bootcamp which was held in January. A Whatsapp group was created right after this boot camp to help the newbie ladies to get started. I was honored to be invited by @angiechin28 to be part of the group and being a senior Steemian, I used this opportunity to help the newer Steemians to navigate this platform. As the group grows we feel the need to come up with our own tag so that it is easier to find each other's post to support. Some suggestions were given and finally, we agreed to settle with #teammalaysiababes.

Two other communities, #steem-cartoon and #steem-music have shown their full support to us. Fellow Steemians from #steem-music community has invited us to their upcoming event at Liberal Latte on 10 March. Some of the ladies have expressed their desire to come to this event and get to know the talented people in Steem Music community. You can find out more about this event here.

We are looking forward to future collaborations with these communities and this includes outreach talks activities. One of the things that I greatly looking forward to is to invite more women specifically mothers who are looking for an extra source of income to come onboard. Steemit is a blessing to my family when I went through medical challenges recently and I hope it will be a blessing to others who are willing to give this platform a try.
