For 12 days, the Spring Fair transformed VEC into a walkable map of 34 provinces, blending cuisine, culture and commerce inside Southeast Asia’s largest exhibition complex.HANOI, VIETNAM - Media OutReach Newswire - 14 February 2026 - For nearly two weeks, the Spring Fair 2026 turned the Vietnam Exhibition Center into something few destinations manage to become: a condensed, high-definition portrait of an entire country. As the fair drew to a close, what remains is not simply a tally of booths or sales figures, but the impression of a place that allowed visitors to move 'through Vietnam' at remarkable speed. Within a single afternoon, one could travel from the northern mountains to the Mekong Delta without leaving a 90-hectare venue on the outskirts of Hanoi. Framed as "A Marketplace of 34 Provinces," the event gathered regional economies, culinary traditions and cultural performances under one monumental roof. For many international visitors in Hanoi this spring, it became a defining stop on the city's New Year cultural calendar. A Country in One Afternoon The scale was unapologetically large. More than 3,000 standard booths. Around 2,500 enterprises. Participation from 34 provinces and cities across Vietnam. Over 12 continuous days, the fair aimed for direct revenue of 1,000 billion VND and operated at a pace that rarely slowed. Inside, the exhibition floor was organized into thematic zones such as "Vietnamese Cultural Essence" and "Vietnamese Agricultural Products - Connecting Spring". The layout encouraged visitors to drift geographically. One moment, they stood in the northern region. Minutes later, they were tasting specialties from the south. In the section representing B?c Ninh, trays of bánh phu thê (sticky rice cake filled with mung bean paste, traditionally served at weddings) glowed un ......read more

Titled "Investor Behavior and Decision-Making Frameworks in High-Volatility Environments," the seminar is designed for retail investors seeking to improve decision-making discipline amid rising market volatility. The event will explore common cognitive biases and behavioral traps that often lead to emotional investing, and introduce a systematic and repeatable decision-making framework to help participants strengthen consistency, structure, and execution in real-world market conditions. Warren Wang, Founder of CrazyLive, stated: "Over the years, I have observed that many retail investors do not underperform because they lack intelligence or information, but because they lack discipline and structure. Volatility is not an exception—it is the market's normal state. The key is whether investors have a clear and executable framework to reduce emotional interference. This seminar is designed to share practical tools and structured thinking approaches grounded in behavioral finance." The seminar will feature three seasoned financial market professionals as keynote speakers: • Cecilia Kwok — Market Sentiment Specialist at CrazyLive and senior financial news anchor, with over 10 years of hands-on investment and trading experience. • Angel Xu — Wharton School graduate (University of Pennsylvania); former Morgan Stanley (New York) analyst; currently a fund manager; CFA and FRM charterholder. • Jolin Zhu — With over 17 years of experience in financial market research and trading, she has participated in large-scale asset management projects and institutional investment operations.

SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 13 February 2026 - Unloq today announced the completion of its first live smart-contract-based trade financing transaction, funding commercial receivables using XUSD¹. The transaction marks one of the early instances of stablecoins being used to finance real cross-border trade activity rather than purely digital-asset markets. The financing was executed through Unloq SC+, the company's smart-contract-driven supply chain finance infrastructure designed to connect trade documentation, payment obligations, settlement, and funding into a single unified workflow. The transaction involved a Singaporean supplier, Chemtank, receiving funding against confirmed invoices, while the buyer retained its normal payment terms.

By combining receivables financing with blockchain-based settlement rails, Unloq aims to reduce execution friction and improve capital efficiency across supply chains. SC+ creates a digital representation of trade obligations that allows financing conditions and settlement triggers to be verified and executed automatically.

In the completed transaction, trade documents and invoice data were recorded in an auditable format on blockchain infrastructure, while settlement was delivered in stablecoin to the supplier. The buyer's commercial payment process remained unchanged.

HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 February 2026 - The 21st century is no longer measuring cities by height or GDP growth, but by their capacity to anticipate, absorb, and regenerate. "Resilience" has shifted from a policy buzzword into a survival metric. Governance is no longer a background function, it is the nervous system of urban life. Vinhomes Green Paradise in Can Gio exemplifies this strategic shift. At its core, the project places the governance (G) factor at the center of the ESG++ model, aiming to build a city capable of regeneration and proactive long-term adaptation. The project is positioning itself not as a late entrant but as a re-architect of coastal urban logic. When Governance Defines Quality of Life For decades, Asian urban development prioritized growth speed and capital attraction. However, climate-related pressures, urban flooding, rising operational costs have exposed the limits of those indicators. International research, including "Happiness in urban environments," now links quality of life not only to amenities but also to safety and environmental resilience. Even technical standards such as ISO 37120 increasingly emphasize public service delivery and transparency over purely economic metrics. This rebalancing is most visible in coastal cities, where high economic potential coexists with direct exposure to sea-level rise. Jakarta's subsidence crisis and the challenges faced by Bangkok and Manila illustrate the long-term costs of prioritizing speed over adaptive capacity. In this context, urban governance must extend beyond routine administration to function as an integrated system of risk management, forecasting, and proactive response.

Built for growing families and unpredictable schedules, the VinFast VF 8 combines spaciousness, towing capacity, advanced safety features, and long-term warranty coverage in an electric SUV that handles daily routines and unexpected detours alike.DUBAI, UAE - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 February 2026 - In the Middle East, families rarely plan only for what is certain. A typical week can shift quickly from school runs and office commutes to last minute road trips, extended family visits, or a spontaneous decision to tow something sizeable across town. The VinFast VF 8 is positioned as a "just in case" SUV, engineered to address these varied and dynamic demands. Firstly, the VF 8's 2,950 mm wheelbase provides ample rear legroom, not the kind that appears generous only in images. The cabin accommodates child seats, growing teenagers, or visiting relatives without compromise. When additional cargo space is needed, the 60:40 split folding rear seats allow the space to adapt quickly. In terms of capability, the VF 8 can tow up to 1,800 kg when properly equipped. For families with boats, trailers, or desert camping equipment, that figure translates into practical reassurance that the man of the house will not have to decide which items stay behind. The vehicle demonstrates that electric powertrains do not inherently limit utility. On open highways between cities, the VF 8 delivers composed and confident performance. Plus variant, equipped with all-wheel drive, produces up to 402 horsepower and provides smooth, immediate acceleration for overtaking. The Eco version offers up to 493 km of range under NEDC standards, sufficient for most daily routines and many intercity drives without constant planning around charging stops. Comfort, particularly in the Middle Eastern climate, is essential. The VF 8's dual ......read more
Cruise, Self-Drive, and Cancellation Disputes on the Rise HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 February 2026 - As Hong Kong’s outbound travel market surges, so do the headaches involving insurance claims. A recent deep dive by 10Life, the independent insurance comparison platform, shows a growing rift between what travelers think they bought and what their policies actually cover. Their data suggests that large proportion of disputes are born from simple misunderstandings, with the most significant risks lurking in cruise packages, road trips, and complex cancellation clauses. Cruises and Road Trips: The Newest Coverage Blind Spots Many travelers assume a standard policy for Japan or Southeast Asia is a "catch-all," but 10Life experts warn that cruises and multi-leg journeys often fall through the cracks. A surge in rejected claims has been linked to travelers failing to add specific "Cruise Cover" to their plans. Without this specific add-on, high-cost risks like onboard medical treatment or sudden itinerary shifts are frequently excluded. The story is similar for self-drive travellers. While most people now know to check for "snow driving" exclusions, a major point of confusion remains the difference between a ruined experience perceived loss and an actual monetary loss. For instance, if bad weather prevents you from visiting a famous hot spring, insurers view this as a non-monetary "loss of experience" and won't pay out. However, if that same weather forces you to book an extra night at a hotel, those specific accommodation costs may be covered (subject to the policy specificity). The Depreciation Sting: Why Your Lost Gear Isn't Fully Covered Losing personal property is a common travel nightmare, yet the relevant insurance policy terms are also frequently misunderstood. 10Life study showed that most policies compensate based on an item’s depreciated value rather than its original price tag. When you factor in stric ......read more
"Geopolitical Volatility" is a top five current and future risk, highlighting the growing instability across the region 83 Percent of Firms Report Rising Insurable Risk Costs TOKYO, JAPAN - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 February 2026 - Aon plc (NYSE: AON), a leading global professional services firm, has released the Japan findings of its 2025 Global Risk Management Survey. The survey reveals that Japanese businesses are navigating a complex landscape marked by persistent cyber threats, supply chain disruptions and weather/natural disasters. The survey, which gathered insights from nearly 3,000 risk managers, C-suite leaders and executives across 63 countries, highlights the unique risks Japan businesses are facing amid global disruption. Japan's Top Risks: "Cyber Attacks/Data Breach" remains the top risk for Japanese businesses, consistent with global trends. "Supply chain or distribution failure" ranks second, as extreme weather events and mounting geopolitical volatility including shifting trade policies force companies to reassess their supply chains. In addition, "Product Liability/Recall" and "Exchange Rate Fluctuation" pose significant risks, reflecting the country's manufacturing strength and exposure to global market volatility. Notably, 63.6 percent of Japanese respondents reported losses due to product liability or recall issues and 47.6 percent cited losses from exchange rate fluctuations. Tatsuya Yamamoto, CEO of Japan at Aon, said, "Japanese organisations are operating in an environment of unprecedented complexity. Cyber, weather and geopolitical risks continue to be acute challenges for Japan businesses, underscoring the need for robust risk management frameworks and agile strategies. As market trends shift and competition intensifies, vigilance and adaptability will be key. The interconnectedness of risks – where a cyber attack can disrupt supply chains or geopolitical volatility can trigger regulatory changes – demands a ......read more
MSC calls on retailers to increase their offer of sustainable seafood products ahead of the Chinese New Year, in response to insights from consumersSINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 February 2026 - As families across Singapore and Malaysia prepare to toss yusheng and serve whole steamed fish for Chinese New Year, new research reveals a striking disconnect: more than eight in ten Malaysians (85%) and nearly three-quarters of Singaporeans (74%) say sustainable seafood matters to them. Despite actively seeking out sustainable sources, a YouGov survey commissioned by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) found that more than half of Singapore consumers (58%) have never noticed an eco-label when shopping. Recognition of the MSC blue ecolabel label sits at 21%. With seafood consumption expected to rise during Chinese New Year as celebrations take centre stage, it's a critical moment for sustainable shopping choices. Malaysia consumes more than double the global average per capita (49 kg versus 21 kg globally), while Singapore imports most of its seafood supply. Without clear labelling and retailer commitment, consumers who want to make sustainable choices often cannot. In Malaysia, where fishing remains central to coastal livelihoods, 75% of Malaysians believe support and resources are essential for local fishermen to fish responsibly and sustainably. In Singapore, where nearly all seafood is imported, consumers look to retailers and regulators for assurance, with 55% citing government standards and 54% citing origin information as key drivers of confidence. "When asked what sustainable seafood means to them, consumers demonstrated a sophisticated understanding: 62% of Singaporeans and 56% of Malaysians associate it with well-managed fisheries operating under clear rules. "It's clear that consumers are ready and willing to seek out credible certification, so we're urging retailers and businesses to make MSC eco-label products visible and accessible," ......read more

AACHEN, GERMANY - Newsaktuell - 11 February 2026 - FEV has published new analysis results on the economic efficiency of electrified commercial vehicles as part of an internal research program. The evaluation of extensive techno-economic data shows: depending on the driving cycle, through trucks with range extender architecture (REEV/Hybrid BEV) the total cost of ownership (TCO) can be reduced by up to 33 percent compared to conventional diesel trucks – while also significantly reducing CO2 emissions. Even in the most unfavorable long-haul scenario, the TCO declined by approximately 14 percent. Depending on the driving cycle through range extender trucks TCO can be reduced by up to 33 percent. Source: FEV Calculations are based on realistic European usage profiles with overnight charging at industrial electricity prices of around 19 cents per kilowatt hour. In regions with lower electricity costs, the advantage is correspondingly higher. Cost-effectiveness without megawatt charging infrastructure A key lever of the REEV architecture is the reduced battery size compared to purely battery-electric long-haul trucks. While typical BEV trucks require battery capacities of around 560 kWh, a REEV truck can manage with around 280 kWh. Even with slower AC charging at 22 kW, around 240 kWh can be recharged overnight – enough to power the vehicle almost entirely electrically for the next day. Thus, a megawatt charging infrastructure is not necessary for economical operation. Significant TCO advantage in the cost-critical commercial vehicle market The economic advantage of the range extender architecture results from several factors. The smaller battery of ......read more

Drawing on XTransfer's work with MSMEs across markets, Bill noted that many Malaysian businesses are "able to export," but face persistent barriers to scaling exports. The most common issues are trust, compliance, and scale, which often surface as payment delays, repeated documentation requests, FX uncertainty, and working capital pressure as orders grow. "For B2B SMEs in foreign trade, the biggest constraint isn't demand. It's the operational complexity behind cross-border payments, foreign exchange, and compliance," Bill said.

LONDON, UK - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 February 2026 - In the 1930s, De Beers redefined the role of diamonds in society, celebrating them as masterpieces of nature and craftmanship. Before this, diamond jewelry pieces were treasures exchanged discreetly amongst society’s elite, as luxury houses, fearful of diminishing their mystique, fostered only private relationships with their clients. De Beers revealed the wonder of diamonds to a wider audience, shifting the perception of them from luxury item to a gift integral to romantic milestones and aspirational, glamorous lives, as well as a way of marking personal achievement. De Beers Group And Assouline Celebate The Launch Of “A Diamond Is Forever: The Making Of A Cultural Icon 1926-2026” When copywriter Frances Gerety captured the diamond’s essence with the phrase “A Diamond Is Forever” in 1947, the declaration enshrined the diamond as a promise of love and endurance, a sentiment resonating far beyond the notion of a simple gift. Gerety’s words, seen on archival advertisements, magazine placements, and celebrity endorsements, reflected the deep cultural connection between diamonds and enduring relationships. Commissioned artwork from artists such as Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, and Raoul Dufy draw a direct line between a diamond’s rarity—each one formed deep within the earth over billions of years—and the creative genius of fine art. By sharing these artistic visions with the world, De Beers revealed the wonder of diamonds—nature’s oldest treasure—to a wider audience, elevating their aura and allure while preserving the sense of rarity and significance that sets them apar ......read more
BEIJING, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 February 2026 - As China marks Xiaonian, or Little Chinese New Year, there is growing evidence of its ancient traditions evolving into global lifestyle trends. CGTN published an article analyzing how this prelude to the Year of the Horse – from the folk ritual of "sweeping the dust" to the cross-cultural fusion of the Spring Festival Gala – illustrates China's growing global cultural resonance. As the lunar calendar turns its final pages, China enters a period of joyful anticipation known as Xiaonian, or Little Chinese New Year. Often celebrated as the Festival of the Kitchen God, it marks the official start of the "busy year" – a traditional term for the intense, joyful period of preparing food, cleaning homes, and shopping for the upcoming Spring Festival. The Spring Festival is a deeply significant time for family reunion. In 2024, UNESCO inscribed the "Spring Festival, social practices of the Chinese people in celebration of the traditional Chinese New Year" onto the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. While daily routines continue to evolve, they remain anchored in rituals that provide a sense of normalcy and meaning. It is perhaps no wonder that in a climate of uncertainty, traditional Chinese lifestyles are finding a new audience beyond the country's borders, with the Spring Festival chief among those unique traditions that are fast becoming a shared human experience. Diverse traditions, shared aspirations In a prelude to the broader celebrations, Xiaonian, observed on February 10 and 11 this year, kickstarts a focused period of preparation. According to ancient lore, families offer Zaotang, or sticky "Kitchen Candy," to the Kitchen God to ensure he delivers a favorable report on the household's conduct before he ......read more
SINGAPORE / KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 February 2026 - Point Hope, a local investment firm, has published a new research note examining the implications of accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) investment, infrastructure constraints, and evolving competitive dynamics within equities markets. The research addresses two dominant concerns currently shaping investor sentiment. The first is whether AI will disrupt incumbent businesses, particularly in capital-light software sectors. The second relates to whether physical constraints — especially power generation, permitting, and grid capacity — may slow the rollout of AI infrastructure and temper expectations embedded in current market valuations. According to the firm's analysis, both concerns warrant careful consideration. Power generation remains capital-intensive and time-consuming, suggesting that AI deployment is likely to progress unevenly rather than in a linear fashion. At the same time, the scale of capital investment underway is unprecedented. Large technology companies have outlined plans for an estimated US$600–700billion of AI-related capital expenditure in 2026, with a significant portion directed toward data centres, chips, servers, and supporting infrastructure. These commitments reflect their belief that AI will become a core input across the global economy. The research argues that for equity investors, the more consequential question is not whether AI adoption will continue, but how it will reshape competitive advantage among incumbent businesses. Recent market volatility has highlighted increasing scepticism toward established software companies, particularly those operating capital-light, subscription-based models. However, Point Hope cautions against assuming widespread displacement. Large software incumbents that possess entrenched enterprise relationships, network effects, and proprietary data, are likely to also have high switching costs for their custo ......read more

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 30 January 2026 - Amid heightened volatility across global luxury real estate markets driven by geopolitical tensions, trade policy uncertainty, and persistent inflationary pressures, Thailand’s ultra-luxury residential sector continues to demonstrate notable resilience. Within this context, SCOPE, a Bangkok-based ultra-luxury residential developer, reported total sales exceeding THB 2.6 billion in 2025, underscoring sustained confidence from high-net-worth individuals and international investors. SCOPE Langsuan Despite global headwinds including escalating trade disputes, rising commodity prices, and shifting monetary policies, Thailand’s prime residential market remains structurally strong. Bangkok, in particular, continues to attract foreign buyers seeking long-term residential assets that combine lifestyle quality with capital stability. Demand in this segment has been driven less by short-term speculation, and more by purchasers prioritizing quality, identity, and long-term livability. Value Proposition in a Global Context One of the defining strengths of Thailand’s ultra-luxury market lies in its compelling value proposition when compared to global gateway cities such as London, New York, Tokyo, or Hong Kong. Prime residences in Bangkok remain significantly more accessible in terms of price, while offering comparable and in some cases superior, standards of design, space, and lifestyle. Performance-Driven Luxury Development SCOPE’s 2025 performance provides a clear illustration of how well-executed ultra-luxury developments can outperform broader market trends.

TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Media OutReach Newswire - 10 February 2026 - CyCraft Technology Corporation (TWSE: 7823), Taiwan's first pure-play AI-native cybersecurity company, has officially listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange Innovation Board, marking a major milestone for Asia's emerging AI-driven security leaders. CyCraft’s founders joined representatives from the Taiwan Stock Exchange, Yuanta Securities, auditors, and legal advisors to celebrate the company’s listing on the TWSE Innovation Board. CyCraft is forged in one of the world's most challenging cyber environments. Taiwan faces persistent and large-scale cyber threats from highly-motivated threat actors targeting government, semiconductor supply chains, financial systems, and critical infrastructure. Rather than theorizing about threats, CyCraft has spent years defending against them at national and industry scale. That experience has produced real-world operational advantages global markets increasingly demand: early-warning intelligence, autonomous machine-speed defense, and field-proven AI automation that cannot be casually replicated. As generative AI reshapes software development, many SaaS categories face commoditization through "vibe-coding." Cybersecurity stands apart. Mission-critical defense requires real adversarial data, ultra-low latency, zero-configuration precision, continuous adaptation against sophisticated attacks, and regulatory-grade trust. These capabilities are not synthetic. AI does not replace cyber defense—it amplifies defenders who already operate in real operational environments. CyCraft's platform is built around three growth engines: Enterprise Cyber Resilience. Its ......read more
