Thanks all.Just a silly thought but I was wondering if an informal regional umbrella
organisation could be setup to make links between South Asian Wiki communities and to
promote cooperation among South Asian chapters/user groups.. So far we have 2 chapters
(India, Bangladesh) and two user group (Pakistan, Nepal).
Indian chapter is doing great so we (other South Asian communities) can learn a lot from
you guys.

My dear Indian fellows,
Namaste and As-salamu alaykum!
I would like to inform you guys that Wikimedia's Affiliation Committee has recently
reviewed our application to become an approved Wikimedia user group and decided to give
our planned user group the official recognition. However, we've not yet signed the
user group agreement as we're still awaiting for it.
I would like to personally thanks Wikimedia Indian chapter and especially Karthik Nadar
who has been very helpful and supporting throughout the process.
We've plans to arrange many off wiki activities such as photo contests (WLM, Wikipedia
Takes the City), and other public outreach events to publicise and promote Wiki movement
in Pakistan. We're looking forward to co-ordinate, co-operate and work with your well
organised Indian chapter.
With my warm regards,
Saqib
On behalf of,
Wikimedia Community User Group Paklistan
