Over the past six months, the brand has gained strong momentum across East Asia and the Middle East, adding over 1,200 units from four new signings and one opening. The portfolio now comprises 16 properties with over 2,700 units, both operational and in the pipeline, across 11 countries and 13 cities. As a key brand within the Ascott Star Rewards (ASR) programme, The Crest Collection enhances the diversity of the ASR portfolio, offering members a broader range of luxury options and more opportunities to experience heritage-inspired stays around the world. Opening in the second half of 2029, SEN/KA TOKYO by The Crest Collection will mark the luxury brand’s debut in Japan. Among the newest additions in East Asia is SEN/KA TOKYO by The Crest Collection, set to open in the second half of 2029, marking the brand’s debut in Japan. Also contributing to growth in the region are two developments in China: Hong Yuan Hotel by The Crest Collection, which opened in Haikou, Hainan Province, at the end of last year, and a property slated to open by mid-2026 in Wuhan’s Donghu New Technology Development Zone, commonly known as Optics Valley. In the Middle East, Al Mahra Resort by The Crest Collection – the brand’s first resort and its debut in the United Arab Emirates – will open in early 2027, to be followed by the brand’s first property in Saudi Arabia, opening in Riyadh in 2028.

Meanwhile, the brand’s seven other operational and pipeline properties are located across Europe, where The Crest Collection was first established in 2016. Ms Serena Lim, Chief Growth Officer, Ascott, said: “Interest in luxury stays continues to rise in Asia and the Middle East, driven by travellers seeking meaningful connections to the region’s rich culture and heritage. The Crest Collection meets this aspiration with its ‘A Story Behind Every Door’ brand promise, delivering culturally immersive experiences enriched by each property’s distinctive identity, while enabling owners to tap into the strength of Ascott’s global commercial ecosystem. Supported by our flex-hybrid model and multi-typology brand strategy, The Crest Collection is highly conversion-friendly, adapting seamlessly across serviced residences, hotels, resorts and other accommodation types.

With luxury travellers drawn to destinations that excite, along with surprising environments and experiences that speak to their individuality[2], it is clear that the true essence of luxury lies in celebrating unique stories rather than uniformity. Ms Tan Bee Leng, Chief Commercial Officer, Ascott said: “Curating experiences that resonate with the expectations of the most discerning travellers has become the currency of modern luxury. Our most affluent guests are seeking emotional connection, personal transformation and cultural resonance. By integrating heritage narratives with thoughtfully curated hospitality, The Crest Collection offers our guests a luxurious and storied experience rooted in the unique identity of each property and its locale.

Vietnamese Agri Trade Mission to Iowa

IOWA, US – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 June 2025 – A delegation of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment of Vietnam led by Minister Do Duc Duy began a trade mission to the United States, with the first stop being Iowa. Welcoming and working with the delegation, on the side of the Iowa Department of Agriculture were Secretary Mike Naig and Deputy Secretary Grant Menke. Ministers witnessed MoU signing between Vietnamese and Iowa agribusinesses. At the meeting, Minister Do Duc Duy expressed his interests to lead a delegation consisting of Vietnamese government agencies, associations and agribusinesses to visit Iowa state, known as the “Heart of Agriculture” in the United States. With a long history of farming system, Iowa is the leading corn production in the United States, with total output of 50 million tons of corn per year. Besides, the state is also home to many other agricultural commodities such as soybean, wheat, pork and beef. “Vietnam has become one of the world’s leading agricultural exporters, contributing positively to global food security. We are constantly expanding our processing capacity, improving quality for sustainable agricultural development in Vietnam. Therefore, Vietnam and the United States can completely complement each other, jointly develop bilateral, stable and long-term agricultural supply chains,” Minister Do Duc Duy affirmed. At the meeting, the two sides jointly recognized and assessed the current status of agricultural trade cooperation between Vietnam and Iowa, and shared information, needs and potentials for business cooperation between the two sides. The discussion opened a substantive direction, promoting the export of high-quality agricultural products from Iowa to the Vietnamese market and vice versa. Notably, the delegation of 50 Vietnamese agribusinesses accompanying Minister Do Duc Duy to the United States this time is expected to sign MoUs to purchase over 2 billion USD of agrifood products from the United States. Particularly for the state of Iowa, businesses and associations of the two sides have signed 5 MOUs with a total value of about 800 million USD over 3 years. Those are significant deals compared to 44 million USD of agricultural exports from Iowa to Vietnam in 2024. Specifically, Vietnam’s Khai Anh Binh Thuan Company signed an MoU to import one million tons of soybean meal, valued at approximately $380–390 million, from its partner Ag Processing Inc (AGP). The company also committed to purchasing 900,000 tons of corn and wheat from United Grain, valued at around $250 million. Viet Nhat Nutrition Technology Company signed a contract with POET Group to import 100,000 tons of DDGS and 100,000 tons of soybean meal, with a total value estimated at 60–70 million USD. Public–private partnership between the two countries also expanded through an MoU between the Department of Livestock Production and Animal Health (under Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Environment) and the Iowa Pork Producers Association (IPPA). Under this agreement, both sides committed to strengthening trade ties and promoting collaboration between Vietnamese and Iowa pork industry by organizing technical seminars, market promotion and trade missions. In addition, the meeting provided opportunities for many other Vietnamese and US businesses to connect, opening new avenues to enhance trade relations and strengthen the Vietnam–US agricultural supply chain linkages. These connections are expected to accelerate the transfer of advanced U.S. technologies to Vietnamese agribusinesses, paving the way toward green, smart, and sustainable agricultural development in Vietnam. Minister Do Duc Duy expressed his confidence that today’s event marks the beginning of a new phase of deeper and more effective cooperation between the Vietnamese business community and the state of Iowa. He emphasized that the outcome reflects the shared goodwill of both sides to advance the comprehensive strategic partnership between Vietnam and the United States.Hashtag: #MAE The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

In the “Best EV City Car” category, VinFast VF 3 outperformed competitors from China, Japan, securing an overwhelming 89% of the total votes. This impressive win was based on the votes of over 50,000 show attendees and the official voting system of the organizers.

With its distinctive design, impressive features, and accessible price, the VF 3 has emerged as an ideal urban vehicle. It’s truly empowering owners to showcase their individuality and unique style with passion. The Organizing Committee also honored the VF 6, the newest addition to VinFast’s product lineup in Indonesia, with the “Favorite New Car Launch” award. The expert panel highly praised the VF 6’s modern design, advanced technological features, and exhilarating driving experience. This model is expected to quickly win over Indonesian consumers and pave the way for a future of “Electrified Transportation for Everyone.” In addition to the product awards, VinFast was also honored with “Best Booth Car” and “Best Costume | Miss IIMS Surabaya 2025.” VinFast’s exhibition booth stood out as the largest at the show, featuring a modern, futuristic design that powerfully inspired visitors with a vision of a green and civilized electric transportation future. The expert panel, media, and numerous attendees were particularly impressed by the elegant image of the Vietnamese Ao Dai. This created a unique cultural highlight, blending traditional beauty with modern appeal, and affirming the fierce spirit of Vietnamese and Southeast Asian people in the global green revolution. Mr. Rudi MF, as the Project Manager of Indonesia International Motor Show, stated: “We are very impressed with the product quality, the message conveyed, and the connection established with the audience as demonstrated by VinFast. The VF 3 and VF 6 models stand out as an interesting model that resonate well with both experts and the general public—something that is increasingly difficult to achieve in today’s competitive market. VinFast’s positive engagement at IIMS Surabaya 2025 was clearly reflected in the high level of visitor enthusiasm at their booth. VinFast successfully captured attention with their innovative presentation and the opportunity for visitors to directly experience their electric vehicle technology.
