98% shop early, leveraging deals for maximum savings, majority keep spending under RM500 MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 04 April 2025 – Shopee Malaysia’s Raya 2025 Buyer Trends Study1 reveals that Malaysian consumers are shopping earlier than ever, with 98% of shoppers beginning their Raya purchases as early as Q4 2024. This trend highlights a growing preference for early planning, allowing buyers to take advantage of year-end sales and promotions to maximise savings. The remaining 2% make last-minute purchases, typically for gifts, fresh festive essentials, or unexpected essentials right before the celebrations begin. The study, conducted with 1,500 Shopee users, highlights a strong budget-conscious mindset, with seven in ten (70%) shoppers keeping their Raya expenses under RM500. Among them, half set a budget between RM300 and RM500. These higher-spending shoppers tend to prioritise bulk purchases for family gatherings, festive gifting, and home upgrades, suggesting that spending habits are influenced by family size, hosting responsibilities, and cultural traditions. When asked ‘Which feature gives you the most confidence when shopping online for Raya?’ 75% of respondents chose Shopee’s secure shopping ecosystem, citing flexible payment options, Shopee Guarantee, and Shopee Mall as key factors influencing their trust. This suggests that consumers increasingly prioritise risk-free transactions and platform reliability when making purchases. The remaining 25% of consumers emphasise product variety, convenience, and community-driven insights, often relying on seller ratings, peer recommendations, and Shopee’s affiliate marketing programs to guide their purchasing decisions. “Malaysians are shopping smarter for Raya, planning earlier and maximising value through promotions, cashback, and flexible payment options. This shift underscores growing trust in Shopee’s secure and rewarding shopping experience, where consumers prioritise not just affordability, but also convenience, buyer protection, and product authenticity. As Raya 2025 approaches, we remain committed to helping shoppers save more, shop confidently, and enjoy a seamless festive shopping journey,” said Tan Ming Kit, Head of Marketing and Business Intelligence at Shopee Malaysia. The study also highlights a strong buyer preference for interactive, real-time content when discovering Shopee’s Raya deals, with a majority relying on affiliate recommendations. Notably, four in five Malaysians turn to their Shopee Live and Shopee Video content, drawn to the ability to see products in action, access exclusive deals, and get instant answers to their questions. This trend highlights how buyers value authenticity, social proof, and real-time engagement over static posts, making live commerce a preferred way to explore and secure the best deals during peak shopping seasons like Raya. The findings further reveal that 70% of Raya shoppers purchase fashion and beauty products, reinforcing the cultural significance of dressing up and self-care during the festive period. This category includes traditional attire, modest wear, footwear, accessories, makeup, and skincare essentials. Beyond fashion, 20% of shoppers prioritise household items, festive food, and gift hampers, reflecting preparations for hosting family and friends as well as cultural gifting traditions. The remaining 10% focus on travel essentials, gadgets, and automotive products, indicating that a segment of shoppers are gearing up for their balik kampung journeys or family holidays. As Malaysians adopt earlier, more strategic, and value-driven shopping habits, secure and seamless e-commerce experiences have become increasingly essential. Reliable sellers, flexible payment options, and platform-wide savings play a key role in helping consumers make informed purchases while maximising value. As digital retail continues to evolve, platforms like Shopee are shaping a more convenient and trusted shopping environment, ensuring Malaysians can prepare for Raya 2025 with confidence. -END- Note to Editor Survey Methodology: The Raya 2025 Buyer Trends Study was conducted by Shopee Marketplace, between 20 February and 12 March 2025.

New platform supports customer needs in project management, collaboration, business intelligence and agile project methodology. SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Neswire – 4 April 2025 – Zoho Corporation, a global technology company, launched Projects Plus, a flexible, collaborative new platform providing data- and intelligence-driven project management for mid-sized and large organizations. The new platform supports evolving Enterprise customer needs after Zoho Projects registers 20% YoY growth in 2024 and three-fold increase in migration from third-party apps. Projects Plus enables asynchronous collaboration, seamless file management, real-time business intelligence, and Agile or Waterfall workflows. Zoho launches Projects Plus a platform solution for evolving enterprise needs Building on Zoho Projects, which doubled its revenue growth in 2024 due to migration away from third-party apps, with 55% of new users migrating from Microsoft Project and JIRA, Projects Plus drives superior value to mid-sized and enterprise organizations by addressing their operational complexity. Projects Plus, now a platform, expands across four key areas: data democratization, AI, hybrid project management, and collaborative work management. While 18% of Enterprise customers deployed both Zoho Projects and Zoho Analytics, Projects Plus directly addresses these advanced needs by consolidating the two, and more, into a singular, efficient solution. “Virtuoso’s journey to Zoho began when we decided to move from Microsoft Dynamics to reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies in 2020; since then, we’ve expanded our enterprise usage and employ a number of Zoho apps across our organization,” says Steve Wooster, Vice President of Operations at Virtuoso, “Leveraging Zoho Projects for enterprise-wide projects has increased visibility, improved communication and coordination across divisions, and ultimately led to more successful project delivery. Now, with Projects Plus, that functionality has increased while offering ease of use. Having Projects Plus directly connect between Zoho Projects, Sprints, and Analytics reduces friction by ensuring teams maintain a full, transparent view of company priorities and the ability to customize data use by department.” “The Projects Plus Platform launch underscores Zoho’s continued commitment to meeting customers where they are,” says Evelyn McMullen, Research Manager at Nucleus Research. “For customers who are not yet ready to adopt more advanced project management capabilities, the new offering stands as an option available to them as their requirements evolve over time. For large enterprises, the platform is designed to meet the specific needs of organizations in complex verticals, such as e-commerce, construction, manufacturing, and automotive.

Projects Plus utilizes this approach, harnessing data across various aspects, such as time tracking, budgeting, task completion, and team and deliverability metrics and transforming them into actionable insights for smarter decision making. This includes: Predictive Analysis: Using historical data to predict risks, estimate timelines, and anticipate resource needs, predictive analysis is essential for forecasting future project outcomes and allows for proactive project planning and risk management. Progress Tracking and Bottleneck Analysis: Traditional project management relied on static tools like Gantt charts to track project progress. With analytics, project managers can now utilize real-time dashboards that provide dynamic and up-to-date insights into project status. Quality Control Analytics: Analytics can be employed to implement robust quality control measures throughout the project lifecycle. By analyzing data related to project deliverables, project managers can ensure that each component meets predefined standards.

HANOI, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 4 April 2025 – VinFast will make its first appearance at the Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) 2025 as the event celebrates its 20th anniversary, showcasing its growing commitment to the Philippines’ electric vehicle market amid the country’s push for sustainable transportation. At MIAS 2025, VinFast aims to demonstrate how its EV lineup can meet the diverse needs of Filipino drivers. In recent years, people around the world have been paying more attention to electric vehicles. In 2024, global sales of electric cars jumped by 25%, hitting 17.1 million units, a clear sign of the accelerating shift toward sustainable transportation. Government actions worldwide are fueling this surge, too. Several countries have ambitious plans, aiming for electric vehicles to make up half of all new car sales by 2030. These policies underscore a shared global effort to cut carbon emissions and clean up the air. As governments push for a greener future, automakers and consumers alike are responding to the call for change. The Philippines, in particular, is emerging as a promising market for electric vehicles. Home to over 110 million people, the country presents a significant opportunity for EV adoption. And the government has also noticed. With the introduction of the Electric Vehicle Industry Development Act (EVIDA), the country aims to reduce its dependence on imported fuels and advance its journey toward energy independence. Yet, even with a promising outlook, hurdles remain. The country’s EV adoption still faces key challenges, including limited charging infrastructure and a general lack of awareness about the benefits of electric vehicles. To accelerate the transition, improvements in infrastructure and stronger public education efforts will be essential. Amid this evolving landscape, VinFast has positioned itself as a key player in the Philippines’ electric mobility shift. The Vietnamese EV manufacturer entered the market in 2024, and following a year of rapid expansion, the company is now set to participate in the highly anticipated Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) 2025, one of the region’s premier automotive events. At MIAS 2025, VinFast aims to demonstrate how its EV lineup can meet the diverse needs of Filipino drivers. From compact city cars to spacious SUVs, the company’s models offer a wide range of choices for different lifestyles. Leading the lineup is the VF 3, a stylish mini-SUV perfectly suited to city commutes. Measuring just 3,190 mm long and powered by a punchy electric motor, it’s an ideal companion for navigating urban environments. For practical and tech-savvy drivers, the VF 5 stands out with its sleek design and smart features. The VF 7, meanwhile, delivers a sporty yet versatile driving experience, available in single or dual-motor options. At the top end, VinFast’s VF 9 SUV comfortably seats seven, combining luxury with impressive performance—making it an ideal choice for long road trips and family outings. Notably, outside of Vietnam, the Philippines is the only country in the world to offer such a diverse VinFast lineup. This highlights the market’s strategic importance to the company and reinforces its commitment to making electric vehicles accessible to a wide range of consumers. Visitors to VinFast’s booth at MIAS 2025 will experience firsthand what electric mobility feels like. Beyond simply viewing the vehicles, attendees will have the opportunity to test drive them, allowing them to explore the benefits and practicality of VinFast’s models. However, VinFast’s long-term vision extends beyond vehicle sales. Recognizing the current gaps in infrastructure, the company aims to work closely with local partners like Motech and JIGA to establish over 100 service centers and expand the charging network across the country by late 2025. These steps demonstrate VinFast’s vision of creating a “For a Green Future” ecosystem with a strong focus on developing key supporting infrastructure. This model has already proven successful in Vietnam, and the company is working to replicate that success in the Philippines. More broadly, these efforts also align with the Philippines’ sustainability goals. By providing affordable, reliable electric vehicles and backing them up with solid infrastructure and incentives, VinFast helps cut carbon emissions and reduce the country’s reliance on imported fuels. With its expanding presence in the market and a diverse product range, VinFast is giving Filipino drivers more choices as they embrace cleaner transportation. By offering accessible options tailored to different lifestyles, the company is helping the Philippines move confidently toward an electric-driven future.

Ultimately, we believe this decisive shift will generate more sustainable returns and create enduring value for our shareholders in the years ahead.” The Proposed Disposal is contingent upon several conditions, including satisfactory completion of due diligence by the Potential Purchaser, comprehensive financial disclosure from the Company, execution of definitive agreements with mutually acceptable terms, and all necessary regulatory and third-party approvals. The final consideration may be subject to adjustment based on due diligence findings. Both parties have agreed to work exclusively with each other from the date of the letter of intent until at least 30 September 2025 (“Exclusivity Period“).
