I'm rather surprised no one has put you on blast, tbh. Either this forum is getting weak, or the more successful members of this forum are starting to realize people that come here with this mentality are nearly too far gone.
You're from a 3rd world country. I'm from the US. You know, it's funny, because people will cry all day and all night about how much better off we Americans are, how much of an advantage knowing English is, etc. They're right: all of those things are unfair advantages.
That said, most people from 3rd world countries have a fully ingrained victimhood mentality. We have the same opportunities, just in different capacities. For instance, only in a 3rd world country can you make money doing the most mundane, "requires literally 0 skill" task and make bank. Comparatively speaking, with how greedy and competitive capitalism is, if I don't fully flesh out an idea as much as possible, prior to launching, check my Ps and Qs, etc. there's an ~80%+ chance I'm simply wasting my time.
You said it yourself: there's a dude in your village that does nothing but oil changes and tire rotations. Take a guess as to what my odds of success would be here in the states if I launched something similar. I'd literally get laughed out of the very city I was born and raised in, while my "customers" followed me out of town asking "why the F*ck do you only offer two services when there are 10,000 Jiffy Lubes, Merlins, Discount Tires, etc. within 10 miles of your location?"
Want another example? In my downtime, I've been watching this dude that goes to the most 3rd world, "hot spot," "no-go zones," etc. all over the world. The sheer amount of solvable and scalable problems I see in ONE 10min video is F*cking obnoxious. For instance, Madagascar is a beautiful place... until you see the 10 tons of rubbish in the streets, the health crisis, and the infestations.
It's almost as-if some brave, daring soul has the opportunity to figure out how to not only solve this problem, but make infinite money while doing it, AND MAKE THEIR HOME A BETTER, SAFER PLACE. That sounds like a government contract to me. While I obviously don't know the full details (e.g. maybe they're just another corrupt government that doesn't care, idk) the fact is the opportunity is literally right there, in front of their faces 24/7. All it takes is ONE PERSON to say, "F*ck this, I've had enough."
You're more or less asking the people of this forum to find something that you can do immediately to make money, and then immediately shooting them down when it doesn't fit whatever idea you had/have in mind. This forum is a goldmine of information, potential ideas/paths, etc. if you use it correctly.
Regardless though, it sounds like you have some internal issues to solve before you even consider helping others. If you don't have the strength, resolve, and self-awareness to help yourself, you will more than likely never help anyone else. You're from a 3rd world country, but regardless of which country that exactly is, I'd bet any amount of my shitty, American money that there are infinite problems you see every day that you choose to ignore. Some of these problems may be a bit too large right now (e.g. "let me figure out how to get rid of 10 tons of rubbish), but a LOT of those problems will be solvable by someone in your position (e.g. "oh shit, we only have 1 person doing <thing>. I can beat their quality while matching their price.")
As for recommendations, I have none as you've shot down 99.9% of the recommendations here. So instead, I encourage you to actually go out into the world, write down every little problem you encounter, and then when you're home, filter the list to see if there's any type of potential business. Continue doing this until you've matched an issue you see with a skill or skillset you can learn in the semi near future.
Everyone here will tell you where the pond is, but NO ONE is going to hold your hand while you walk down the path to it.
Cheers.
