Recently, we received a notification from the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) of India regarding the operating permits of some of our subsidiaries. Due to national security concerns, and in accordance with Indian regulations, our ground handling and cargo warehouse operations at the affected airports have been suspended.

      • "content": "HONG KONG , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- HR Asia proudly marks the 10th anniversary of its prestigious \"Best Companies to Work for in Asia – Hong Kong \" awards, honoring 48 organizations that exemplify excellence in human capital strategy and workplace culture. This milestone comes at a time when Hong Kong's corporate landscape faces unprecedented challenges in talent retention, multigenerational workforce integration, and the evolving expectations of a new generation of employees. Hong Kong companies are increasingly adopting flexible and inclusive workplace policies to attract and retain talent. Experts emphasize the need for multilingual environments and recognition of diverse generational needs to make workplaces more appealing. Work-life balance has emerged as a pivotal factor in talent attraction and retention. According to Randstad Hong Kong, it has overtaken salary and benefits as the most important employee value proposition, highlighting a shift in employee priorities. Moreover, managing a multigenerational workforce presents unique challenges. Organizations are encouraged to tailor learning and development strategies to accommodate varying preferences across age groups, ensuring effective upskilling and engagement. As Hong Kong navigates the complexities of a dynamic workforce landscape, the HR Asia \"Best Companies to Work for in Asia \" awards continue to recognize organizations that exemplify adaptability, inclusivity, and innovation. These companies not only set industry standards but also inspire others to reimagine their approaches to human capital management in an ever-evolving world. \"Over the past decade, we've seen a seismic shift in how organizations engage with talent — and the most successful companies are those that don't just react, but anticipate.\" said William Ng , Group Publisher of HR Asia. \"In Hong Kong, where generational diversity and digital disruption converge, the best employers are those that listen deeply, adapt swiftly, and empower boldly. This year's winners exemplify what it means to build not just a workforce, but a future-ready culture.\" 2025 marks the launch of the HR Asia Tech Empowerment Awards, a new category that celebrates organizations at the forefront of workplace innovation. This accolade honors companies that harness cutting-edge technology — whether through hardware or software — to elevate employee experience, streamline operations, and drive meaningful productivity gains. It reflects a growing recognition that digital empowerment is now central to building agile, future-ready workplaces. Another major highlight of this year's event was the recognition of Platinum winners — companies that have achieved the extraordinary distinction of being named Best Companies to Work for in Asia for ten consecutive years. This rare accomplishment underscores a decade-long dedication to cultivating world-class workplace cultures. The 2025 Platinum honorees in Hong Kong are Avery Dennison Hong Kong B.V. and Lee Kum Kee Group — both examples of consistency, innovation, and unwavering people-first values. The award covers fifteen markets across the region including mainland China , Cambodia , Hong Kong , Indonesia , India , Japan , Korea, Macau , Malaysia , Philippines , Singapore , Taiwan , Thailand , United Arab Emirates , and Vietnam , making this the largest recognition program and survey in the region for employee engagement.

      • "content": "The launch coincided with ChangAn's 28.59 millionth vehicle rolling off the assembly line, marking a key milestone in its international expansion. RAYONG, Thailand , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- News report from GDToday. ChangAn Automobile (\"ChangAn\" ), an intelligent low-carbon mobility technology company, officially opened its first international new energy vehicle (NEV) manufacturing base in Rayong, Thailand , integrating sustainable, low-carbon, flexible manufacturing, and intelligent digital systems that focus on efficiency, cost, and quality. The launch marks a key milestone for ChangAn in its international manufacturing structure and injects advanced intelligent manufacturing power into Thailand's automotive industry. The opening of ChangAn's Rayong Factory marks a new phase of its Vast Ocean Plan, shifting from product exports to industrial globalisation. It showcases the Company's potential in global expansion across products, smart manufacturing, branding, and green, digital innovation. As a key production hub, the plant features five intelligent workshops — including welding, painting, general and engine assembly, and battery — with 90% automation at key quality control stations, among the highest in Thailand's auto industry. The factory incorporates energy-saving and eco-friendly features aligned with green development goals. A 14MW photovoltaic system will provide 45% of the plant's electricity. Recirculating air towers, louvers, natural lighting, and rainwater recycling will cut energy use for lighting and ventilation, improve water efficiency, and lower energy costs by an estimated 5%. ChangAn has implemented an innovative and flexible production system to lower manufacturing costs and efficiently build high-value vehicles. The welding workshop features 39 robots and advanced material-joining methods, including FDS, EPS, and SPR, delivering strength beyond traditional connection techniques. The painting workshop uses 29 robots and advanced spraying to extend paint life to 15 years and reduce emissions by 40%, while the assembly line features 140 stations, including 18 fully and 125 semi-automated units. Technologies such as automated seal adjustment and AGV vehicles allow for multi-model and multi-power production. The power workshop supports engine and battery production, including ultra-precise engine tile-matching and visual guidance across 22 battery processes. Forty-five AGVs create a flexible, responsive manufacturing and transport system. As a digital-first factory, ChangAn employs a full-stack digital ecosystem with a microservice architecture for 100% online operations. The entire manufacturing process is scheduled in real time, improving supply chain coordination and reducing the order delivery cycle from 21 days to 15 days. The ChangAn Quality Operating System (CAQOS) ensures comprehensive quality management across supplier parts, vehicle production, and market services. During production, 77 surveillance cameras and 62 foolproof checkpoints are used, creating 71 quality containment processes to ensure end-to-end quality across parts, production, and market services. Looking forward, ChangAn aims to localise 80% of production at its Rayong Factory, create 30,000 jobs, and support low-carbon growth and talent development for Thailand's green transition. Positioned as a hub for Southeast Asia , Australia and New Zealand , ChangAn plans to exceed 5 million global and 3 million new energy vehicle sales by 2030. Over the next three years, it will launch 12 new energy models and expand AI features. A new Rayong parts centre will support right-hand drive markets with 24-hour delivery. \"After 556 days of dedication from over 2,000 employees and partners around the world, we have built a factory that is efficient, modern, and smart,\" said Shen Xinghua, Managing Director of ChangAn Automobile Southeast Asia Business Unit. \"We are here for the long run. Together, we will help shape a cleaner, smarter, and stronger automotive future — In Thailand , For Thailand , and For the world.\" SOURCE GDToday",

      • "content": "High-level officials join SUEZ and partners to mark a milestone in Hsinchu's water security strategy HSINCHU , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SUEZ, together with its partners CTCI Group and Hung Hua , held a high-level groundbreaking ceremony to commence construction of Taiwan ' s first large-scale municipal reverse osmosis desalination plant in Hsinchu. A ttended by over 200 guests including the Prime Minister, Minister of Economic Affairs, and Hsinchu City Mayor, this event marks a major step forward in securing a stable water supply for the region's residents and industries. François Fevrier, CEO Water and R&R of SUEZ Asia said, \"With over 60 years of experience in designing, building and operating more than 260 desalination plants worldwide, SUEZ delivers advanced seawater desalination solutions tailored for municipal and industrial needs. This groundbreaking is more than a construction milestone - it symboli s es institutional trust and shared responsibility. Together with our partners, we are committed to delivering a sustainable and resilient water solution that supports Taiwan's ongoing growth and climate adaptation efforts .\" A landmark public-private partnership driving regional resilience The Hsinchu Desalination Plant marks the first collaboration between Taiwan's Water Resources Agency and a global desalination solutions operator, reinforcing the importance of public-private partnerships in delivering resilient infrastructure. This collaboration further expands SUEZ's global portfolio of desalination plants spanning Australia , the Middle East , Europe , and Southeast Asia , affirming the Group's leadership in sustainable water solutions. This plant is a landmark project under the government's \"Enhancement of Water Production by Technology\" strategy. Its advanced design phase demonstrates close coordination between engineering teams and authorities, setting the foundation for a rigorous construction schedule expected to be completed within 32 months. Following construction, a 12-month performance proving period will ensure full compliance and operational reliability before the commencement of the 15-year Operations & Maintenance phase. This carefully planned timeline, with construction continuing through 2028, underscores the strong determination and commitment of all parties involved to deliver timely, disciplined, and sustainable results. Advancing water security through innovative desalination technology Hsinchu's water supply has traditionally relied on rainfall-fed reservoirs, a system increasingly strained by climate change and shifting weather patterns. The new seawater desalination plant—utilising reverse osmosis and advanced SUEZ technologies—is part of Taiwan's strategic response to strengthen regional water resilience, particularly as demand grows to support semiconductor and high-tech industries in the Hsinchu Science Park. Designed to produce 100,000 cubic meters of drinking water daily, the facility will ultimately serve approximately 1.6 million people and industries. With a total contract value of NT$17.7 billion (€508 million), the project incorporates several sustainability features including energy-efficient processes, a compact layout, solar power integration, and an advanced offshore pipeline pigging system to reduce material use and minimise environmental impact. SUEZ brings its strong desalination expertise to this project, with reference plants worldwide including flagship plants in Australia , Bahrain and Sri Lanka , and recently commissioned facilities for global chemical leader Wanhua Chemical Group. The company continues to expand its global footprint with major projects such as the world's second largest reverse osmosis plant in Jordan (serving over 3 million people), the Philippines' largest seawater desalination facility in Iloilo City, and the Puglia plant in southern Italy , demonstrating SUEZ's capacity to tackle global water scarcity through innovative desalination solutions.

Located in the Connecting Lives Zone (A13), the Thai Pavilion quickly became one of the most-photographed spots at the Expo. The striking design optimizes a narrow, elongated space. A roof inspired by traditional Thai architecture forms half of a classic gable, while the neighboring glass-walled building completes the visual story. The architectural harmony symbolizes the pavilion's theme—blending the old with the new. \"At Osaka Expo 2025, Thailand aims to showcase our exceptional potential and demonstrate our wisdom in shaping a better life and society. As such, our country will participate under the theme \"Connecting Lives for Greatest Happiness\", showcasing how Thai happiness is deeply rooted in our way of life, culture, arts, wisdom, and—most importantly—our renowned hospitality. To illustrate this, we will highlight Thailand's expertise in healthcare services, which have evolved into a world-class Medical and Wellness Hub—a perfect blend of art and science. Our pavilion will showcase one of Thailand's greatest Soft Power assets: the integration of medical service with Traditional Thai health and wellness practices. This will further demonstrate Thailand's potential as a global leader in health and wellness, driving new economic opportunities for the country in both the short and long term,\" said Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra.

      • "content": "BEIJING , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- iQIYI, China's leading online entertainment platform, has taken two major steps recently to deepen its presence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, signaling continued ambition in the overseas market. On May 11 , the company signed a content partnership with Egypt's leading Arabic streaming platform WATCH IT. Three days after, it officially launched iQIYI MENA Branch in Dubai , marking a stronger operational foothold in the region. Grounded in extensive market research, these moves are part of iQIYI's broader localization strategy, aimed at amplifying Chinese storytelling abroad while integrating more regional content into its global ecosystem. The company has identified MENA as a market with a long history and huge potential, driven by a rising demand for digital entertainment. Under the new partnership, WATCH IT will stream a curated slate of iQIYI's premium Chinese-language films and shows — including top-rated series such as \"Road Home\" and \"Strange Tales of Tang Dynasty\" — through its established regional network. In return, iQIYI's main platform will feature WATCH IT's original humanities documentary series \"Mother of the World,\" which draws upon archaeological evidence to showcase the development of ancient Egyptian civilization. iQIYI International will also introduce WATCH IT's select Arabic-language original content, enriching its overseas content ecosystem. \"WATCH IT is deeply rooted in the Egyptian and Middle Eastern markets, with robust production and distribution capabilities,\" said Zhaonan WANG, vice president and editor-in-chief of iQIYI. \"Through this collaboration, we hope to better serve MENA audiences and use film and television as a bridge for cultural exchange.\" With the new branch launched in Dubai , iQIYI continues to better serve local customers. With a content strategy tailored to local tastes, iQIYI has curated a dedicated MENA content library featuring Chinese-language dramas, movies, animation, and variety shows adapted to local customs. The platform endeavors to continue optimizing the playback experience for MENA's network environment and is in discussion with local telecom operators to extend viewing options. In addition to the WATCH IT partnership, iQIYI has also collaborated with evision, the media and entertainment arm of e&, since June 2014 to distribute over 20 popular Chinese dramas, animations, and movies to MENA viewers via evision's free streaming service STARZ ON . Speaking in Dubai , Xianghua YANG, president of iQIYI's Movie & Overseas Business Group, noted the key support of ongoing collaborations with local partners in advancing the company's continued development in MENA. With the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia as its core, iQIYI aims to gradually cover the Gulf region. The launch of iQIYI MENA Branch in Dubai further strengthens the platform's global footprint, following the debut of its international website, iQ.com, and iQIYI International App in 2019, as well as the opening of its international headquarters in Singapore in 2020. Since then, the company has established four key operational regions — Southeast Asia , North America , Japan and South Korea , and MENA — as it strives to become the home for beloved Asian content for audiences worldwide. Today, iQIYI's content reaches audiences in over 190 countries and regions. iQIYI International currently supports user interface and subtitles in 12 languages, including English, Thai, Indonesian, Korean, Spanish, and Arabic.

      • "content": "TAIPEI , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Gemtek Technology is set to showcase a powerful lineup of next-generation technologies at COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2025, taking place from May 20 to 23 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center. Gemtek, a global leader in the telecommunications industry, will unveil its latest ultra-fast 800G Optical Module and Software Cloud platform. Gemtek will also demonstrate the advanced capabilities of its MoAI AI Router, integrated with IntoWell Biomedical's Dr.AI platform. Together, these breakthroughs highlight Gemtek's commitment to advancing digital transformation across the fields of telecommunications, cloud services, and AI. Driven by the explosive growth of big data, cloud applications, and AI, the demand for high-bandwidth, high-speed, and low-latency transmission continues to surge exponentially, making 800G Optical Modules stand out as a crucial technology for AI Cloud Data Centers. Building on its strong foundation in telecommunications, Gemtek has invested extensively in the research and development of its 800G Optical Module, which will make its debut at this year's exhibition. As part of its broader digital transformation strategy, Gemtek has teamed up with GENIX NETWORKS to launch its exclusive Software Cloud. The Software Cloud is a cloud-based platform that combines network security, traffic management, and behavioral control into a single solution. Designed to meet the growing demand for online privacy and cybersecurity, the platform offers comprehensive security features like firewalls, antivirus, anti-intrusion, and web threat defense, all powered by deep packet inspection for reliable and secure performance. Additional features such as the QoS technology optimizes key applications like video streaming and virtual meetings, while parental controls block inappropriate content. Another key collaborative achievement for Gemtek is its partnership with IntoWell Biomedical on the Dr.AI smart healthcare platform. In conjunction with Gemtek's state-of-the-art MoAI AI Router, the two companies jointly developed the Medical Pre-Assessment system (MedPA) and the MoAI Avatar. Patients can interact with the MoAI Avatar to describe symptoms, which are then automatically transcribed via speech-to-text (STT) into a structured SOAP note. The solution helps reduce documentation workloads for healthcare providers, streamlines clinical workflows, and accelerates digital transformation in hospitals. This remarkable innovation was recently honored with the COMPUTEX 2025 Best Choice Award in the Digital Healthcare category. Gemtek and its partners will be exhibiting at Booth M1233a at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center, as well as at the GENIX NETWORKS Nangang office. We warmly invite you to visit us and explore the latest innovations we're proud to present. SOURCE Gemtek Technology Co., Ltd.",

      • "content": "Statistically significant improvements in lung function Consistent trends of quality of life and exacerbation rate reduction as ENHANCE-1/2 Well tolerated safety profile NDA submission planned for 2H 2025 SHANGHAI , May 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nuance Pharma (\"Nuance\") today announces its top-line Phase 3 ENHANCE- CHINA (NCT05743075) trial results evaluating nebulized ensifentrine for the maintenance treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (\"COPD\"). The ENHANCE- CHINA trial has successfully met its primary endpoint, as well as secondary endpoints demonstrating improvements in lung function. The investigational study drug, ensifentrine is a first-in-class selective dual inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 and 4 (\"PDE3; PDE4\") that combines bronchodilator and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory effects in one molecule, delivered directly to the lungs through a standard jet nebulizer without the need for high inspiratory flow rates or complex hand-breath coordination. Highlights - Study population (n = 526 randomized): Subject demographics and disease characteristics were well balanced between treatment groups Approximately 46% of subjects received background COPD therapy, either a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (\"LAMA\") or a long-acting beta-agonist (\"LABA\"). Additionally, approximately 38% of all subjects received inhaled corticosteroids (\"ICS\") with concomitant LABA. - Primary endpoint met (FEV 1 AUC 0-12hr): Placebo corrected, change from baseline in average FEV 1 area under the curve 0-12 hours post dose at week 12 was 110 mL (p<0.0001) for ensifentrine Statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements with ensifentrine demonstrated across key subgroups including age, smoking status, COPD severity, background medication, ICS use, chronic bronchitis, FEV 1 reversibility - Secondary endpoints of lung function: Placebo corrected, increase in peak FEV 1 of 174 mL (p<0.0001) at week 12 Placebo corrected, increase in morning trough FEV 1 of 36 ml (p=0.0533) and evening trough FEV 1 of 65 ml (p=0.0038) at week 12, confirming twice daily dosing regimen. Placebo corrected, increase in average FEV 1 of 162 ml (p<0.0001) 0-4 hours post dose and 77 mL (p=0.0003) 6-12 hours post dose at week 12 - COPD symptoms and quality of life (QoL): Clinically meaningful improvements in dyspnea as measured by Transition Dyspnea Index (TDI) in the ensifentrine group were observed at all weeks (6, 12 and 24) with a statistically significant improvement of 0.8 unit compared to placebo at week 24. Quality of Life (QoL) as measured by St George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) Total Score in the ensifentrine group improved from baseline to greater than the MCID of -4 units with a significant improvement of -2.9 units compared to placebo at week 24. Daily symptoms as measured by Evaluating Respiratory Symptoms (E-RS) Total Score in ensifentrine group showed improvement from baseline as early as 6 weeks and continued improvement at 12 and 24 weeks, numerically exceeding placebo at each measurement. - Exacerbation rate reduced Subjects receiving ensifentrine demonstrated a 28% reduction in the rate of moderate/severe COPD exacerbations over 24 weeks compared to those receiving placebo (RR = 0.72, 95% CI: (0.43, 1.22)) Treatment with ensifentrine significantly decreased the risk of a moderate/severe exacerbation as measured by time to first exacerbation when compared with placebo by 25% (HR = 0.75, 95% CI: (0.44, 1.28)) - Favorable safety profile: Ensifentrine was well-tolerated with treatment related AE incidence similar to placebo Mark Lotter , founder and Chief Executive Officer of Nuance Pharma, said:\"We are very pleased by the successful outcome of our Phase 3 ENHANCE- CHINA study, bringining us another step closer to providing a much needed novel therapy for COPD patients in China . These promising results demonstrate ensifentrine's strength as a first-in-class bronchodilator and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory therapy for COPD, as an advance to existing treatment options. We plan to submit a New Drug Application to the China NMPA in the second half of 2025. We would like to thank all the patients and investigators for their participation in the ENHANCE- CHINA program. \" Charlie Chen , Chief Operating Officer of Nuance Pharma added:\"The totality of ENHANCE data including improvements in lung function, symptoms, quality of life measure and reduction in exacerbations, coupled with favorable safety profile, support our belief that ensifentrine will change the treatment paradigm for COPD. Following our ongoing early access programs in Hainan BoAo and Greater Bay Area, as well as regulatory approval in Macau , we look forward to bringing this medicine to patients in Greater China .\" David Zaccardelli , Pharm. D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Verona Pharma, said:\"we look forward to Nuance Pharma's continued progress and having Ohtuvayre® available for the millions of symptomatic patients needing additional treatment.\" Nuance Pharma plans to release additional information from ENHANCE- CHINA at upcoming scientific conferences.
