Some people in some countries does not have a live icon, well, its the matter of time before the live streaming feature is available to every person in each country, but we have another way to go through, its through Facebook Pages.

After creating your Facebook page, open that page and tap on POST icon (to create new page post), then you will see list of options including an option to create a LIVE video, tap on that option and you are ready to go.
