ORDOS, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 September 2025 – From September 16 to 17, 2025, the 10th Kubuqi International Desert Forum will convene in Ordos, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Recently, reporters visited the Kubuqi Desert to investigate desertification control measures. Seen from the air, 196,000 solar panels stretch across the Kubuqi Desert in a striking horse-shaped mosaic, while on the ground, visitors to Chaideng Village, Ordos City, stroll along the solar station and nearby farmstays, savouring local delicacies in what was once the desolate “sea of death.” The Kubuqi Desert, China’s seventh-largest, located in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, was once known as the “sea of death.” However, it boasts abundant solar resources and is an ideal place to build a solar power station. An aerial drone photo taken on Sept. 3, 2025 shows a photovoltaic and desertification control project in Kubuqi Desert, north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The Junma solar power station — “Junma” meaning “fine horse” in Chinese — is part of an ambitious desert reclamation project known as the “great photovoltaic wall,” stretching along the northern edge of the Kubuqi Desert. The grand project is planned to extend about 400 kilometers with an average width of five kilometers. Upon completion, it is set to have an installed capacity of 100 million kilowatts. At the Kubuqi Desert Ordos Central-Northern New Energy Base project, located in the central section of the “great photovoltaic wall,” rows of blue solar panels glisten under the sun. “The first and second phases of the project, each with an installed capacity of one gigawatt, have been successfully connected to the grid, transforming over 63,000 mu (about 4,200 hectares) of desert into a sea of solar panels,” said Na Guiting, deputy president of Inner Mongolia Three Gorges Mengneng Energy Co., Ltd., the company responsible for the project. As one of China’s first large-scale renewable energy bases with a capacity exceeding 10 gigawatts, the base is set to develop eight gigawatts of solar power, four gigawatts of wind power, and four gigawatts of supporting coal power. Once the project is completed, it will deliver approximately 40 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, with over 50 percent coming from clean energy sources, according to Na. It is equivalent to saving about 6 million tonnes of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by around 16 million tonnes each year, Na added. Beneath the solar panels, various sand-fixing plants are thriving. The panels provide shade, cut groundwater evaporation and reduce wind speeds, all of which support plant growth, said Hong Guangyu, a researcher with the Academy of Forestry Sciences of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, adding that the plants prevent dust from rising, which in turn benefits solar power generation. The city of Ordos, also known for its abundant coal resources, has several large coal mines around the Kubuqi Desert. The treated drainage water from the coal mines is channeled to the solar power base and used to clean the solar panels and water the plants. Local residents are also reaping the benefits of the solar projects. “These projects shield us from wind and sand, allowing our village to cultivate over 10,000 mu of high-standard farmland this year. If leased out, the land can bring villagers 900 yuan (about 126.6 U.S. dollars) per mu each year,” said Han Rongkuan, a local farmer. At the 16th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, Ordos shared its experience in photovoltaic-based desertification control with other cities. “The story of solar power projects in Kubuqi Desert embodies Chinese wisdom and solutions, demonstrating a sustainable path that combines ecological and economic benefits in the fight against desertification,” Hong said. Under China’s Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program (TSFP), the world’s largest afforestation initiative launched in 1978 to combat desertification across the country’s northwestern, northern and northeastern regions, a total of 480 million mu of forests have been planted and preserved, while 1.28 billion mu of degraded grasslands have been successfully restored. At the Central Economic Work Conference in 2024, China urged efforts to push for major progress in the landmark projects of the TSFP and promote faster construction of new energy bases in sandy areas, rocky areas and deserts.

BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 September 2025 – As urban professionals increasingly turn to serviced apartments for a better balance of work, family, and lifestyle, ONYX Hospitality Group is spotlighting its Shama brand — a growing collection of residences in Thailand, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and China. Designed to meet the needs of today’s new generation of city dwellers, Shama offers the flexibility, convenience, and community that redefine the modern urban home. Shama: A New Way of Living Shama is designed for executives, professionals, and families who require both short- and long-term accommodation. It offers spacious residences with functional layouts – complete with kitchens and living areas – alongside amenities for everyday life. All of this is complemented by hotel-standard services to ensure comfort and ease. More than just providing a place to live, Shama reimagines the home experience by blending the warmth of home with the conveniences of a hotel. This approach resonates with modern city dwellers who value quality of life and flexibility over traditional property ownership. It is why Shama stands as a pioneer of the New Urban Living Mindset, making the idea of a “second home” a reality for today’s urbanites. Shama is more than just a place to stay; it is a new way of living. Offering flexibility, convenience, and a better quality of life, Shama is redefining the modern home for city dwellers across Asia. Why Serviced Apartments? For the new generation, a home is more than just a house or a condominium. It is about quality of life, convenience, and a sense of community. Today’s urban dwellers, especially executives and office professionals, are seeking a place that genuinely enhances their lives. They want more than simply a bed for the night or a permanent suburban address; they aspire to a space that seamlessly balances work, relaxation, and family life. For professionals advancing their careers, a home close to their workplace, with convenient transport links and comprehensive services, is a critical advantage. It enables them to focus fully on their work, safe in the knowledge that when they return, they can unwind and recharge both physically and mentally without worrying about everyday details. For parents with children studying in the city, a “home” means a safe and accessible environment with services and communities that ensure a high quality of life – an environment where their children can thrive. The Serviced Apartment Advantage Serviced apartments have therefore emerged as the ideal solution for modern city living. They present a superior alternative to renting a condominium, which can often mean limited space and few services, or staying in a hotel, which is rarely practical for longer-term stays. Unlike purchasing a home, which carries the burden of maintenance and the challenge of relocating as circumstances change, serviced apartments provide a flexible, convenient option. With features perfectly suited to the urban lifestyle, serviced apartments provide spacious living areas complete with fully equipped kitchens, living rooms, and dedicated workspaces, as well as shared spaces for unwinding. Hotel-standard services take care of everyday essentials, while prime locations close to business districts, schools, and leading hospitals offer both convenience and peace of mind. Above all, serviced apartments foster a sense of community that enhances overall quality of life. And when the time comes to move on, residents can do so with ease – free from the burden of resale or letting. This is why serviced apartments are becoming the new “second home” for today’s urban professionals. More than simply meeting residential needs, they combine flexibility, convenience, and quality of life for a truly fulfilling lifestyle. Discover Shama across a range of locations, each designed to suit different lifestyles: Shama Yen-Akat Bangkok A tranquil retreat in the Silom-Sathorn business district, surrounded by shops and restaurants. Ideal for pet owners and fitness enthusiasts, with Lumpini Park just minutes away. Shama Ekamai Bangkok Situated in the vibrant Ekkamai-Thonglor area, surrounded by community malls, cafés, and restaurants.

SHENZHEN, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 September 2025 – Recently, a “Shenzhen-Hong Kong 72-Hour Experience Pass” has drawn the attention of young “makers” from around the world. The experience program, jointly launched by the Authority of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone and the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, invites global experts to visit, experience, inspect, and collaborate in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. To support this, the program offers 500 air tickets, 200 seaside rooms, and 1,000 opportunities for high-paying jobs. Shenzhen-Hong Kong 72-Hour Experience Pass “This is not just a pass, but also a dialogue, a window, and the starting point of a career,” said an official from the Qianhai Authority. The Authority hopes that this precise, efficient, immersive, and interactive approach can break down information barriers, enabling talented people from around the world to realize their dreams in the Greater Bay Area, a land full of opportunities. Shenzhen-Hong Kong 72-Hour Experience Pass It is learned that the Shenzhen and Hong Kong governments will arrange customized itineraries based on applicants’ backgrounds and needs and provide comprehensive support. This includes assistance with obtaining Shenzhen entry visas, guidance and services throughout the trip, and subsidies covering accommodation, transportation, and meals. Global elites can access the application form by just scanning the official QR code and complete the application by submitting it to the email address designated by Qianhai or Hong Kong. During the 72-hour trip, experts selected in the experience program will enjoy an immersive tour in Shenzhen and Hong Kong from three key perspectives: career, lifestyle, and opportunities. Activities include visits to top universities, sci-tech innovation parks, and world-class technology companies in Shenzhen and Hong Kong, as well as strolling on the shores of Victoria Harbor and riding the “Bay Glory” Ferris wheel. This experience pass program, jointly launched by Shenzhen and Hong Kong, is a vivid example of the two regions working together to build a more internationally competitive talent system. In recent years, Qianhai and Hong Kong have enhanced “hard connectivity” by improving the interconnectivity in transportation, communications, and other infrastructure. In terms of “soft connectivity,” they have focused on advancing the alignment of rules and coordination of mechanisms, removing institutional barriers such as cross-border public services and mutual recognition of professional qualifications. These efforts aim to create a “seamless” development environment for more talented individuals and enterprises seeking opportunities in Qianhai. The effort to attract global talent to the Greater Bay Area and encourage them to stay in Shenzhen and Hong Kong is underpinned by an increasingly comprehensive public service system and a business environment aligned with international standards jointly developed by Hong Kong and Qianhai. For example, the “Shenzhen Qianhai International Business e-Station” platform built by Qianhai provides integrated online and offline services, enabling “one-counter handling” of high-frequency matters such as cross-border notarization and talent introduction. It has become a key service hub for enterprises expanding overseas and for talent entering the Greater Bay Area. Today, Qianhai has become a pivot for connecting resources across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and a strategic platform for integration with the international community. Through innovation and opening up, it is writing a new chapter in Shenzhen-Hong Kong collaboration. By offering growth opportunities for young people from Hong Kong and Macao, creating development prospects for talented people from around the world, and building bridges for enterprises seeking global expansion, Qianhai demonstrates its unique value and boundless potential as a strategic platform for Shenzhen-Hong Kong cooperation. From the 72-hour experience pass to continuous empowerment from a comprehensive service system, Qianhai is conveying strong confidence and sincerity to global makers through its systematic and efficient service philosophy and actions. Here, there are not only vast development opportunities and the “key” to the Chinese mainland market, but also efficient and convenient service support, a more internationally aligned business environment, and a rainforest-like innovation ecosystem. Qianhai’s appeal is prompting global experts to “vote with their feet,” choosing to stay here and join the wave of innovation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

New research reveals diverse approaches to cultivating domestic philanthropy HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 September 2025 – The Commission on Asian Philanthropy – a coalition of 13 of Asia’s leading philanthropic organisations – today announces early insights from its landmark research study on Asian giving. The 4th Convening of the Commission on Asian Philanthropy in Hong Kong on Monday, 8 September 2025 The study highlights five distinct growth models that are transforming the scale, professionalism and effectiveness of philanthropy across Asia, namely corporate-led, community-led, faith-based, state-led and high-net-worth-individual-led. While the last model has a comparatively limited presence in Asia, the first four account for the majority of philanthropic capital and activity across the region and offer compelling pathways to unlock domestic impact through approaches tailored to local contexts. Distinctively, philanthropic growth models in Asia capitalise on the region’s values, with society taking on greater collective responsibility. The Commission has found that this diverse and pluralistic approach to cultivating philanthropy extends beyond a focus on high-net-worth individuals and allows jurisdictions in Asia to derive benefits that surpass financial contributions alone. Key features of the growth models include: Corporate-led: companies deploy assets, expertise and infrastructure to advance inclusive development. Community-led: citizens engage through volunteering, peer support and grassroots mobilisation. Faith-based: values-driven giving sustains long-term action and deep community trust. State-led: enables greater co-ordination and scale, leveraging the state’s reach and delivery infrastructure. To illustrate how these models are reshaping philanthropy in practice, the Commission spotlighted examples from several jurisdictions, each reflecting the kind of expansive investment and strategic ambition that defines a growth model. India’s mandatory CSR boosted corporate giving from US$1.20 billion in 2015 to US$4.17 billion in 2024, embedding inclusive growth into boardroom priorities in less than a decade. China and Saudi Arabia have digitalised informal giving by the general public, with China channelling close to US$1.55 billion in 2021 and Saudi Arabia raising US$1.33 billion in 2024 through digital fundraising platforms. Indonesia’s Zakat system (giving to vulnerable people as mandated by Islamic law) has professionalised faith-based giving, increasing contributions to US$2.55 billion in 2024, with institutional giving tripling since 2015 to US$0.73 billion (28.69% of total). “Asia’s philanthropic landscape is full of potential, but real transformation depends on strengthening the underlying systems that support the different philanthropic growth models,” says Lester Huang, Chairman of the Institute of Philanthropy – which is a Co-Convenor of the Commission on Asian Philanthropy. “These models offer a path forward – not just to grow giving, but to professionalise philanthropic approaches, improve co-ordination and increase impact.” These findings mark a major milestone in the Commission’s three-year effort to catalyse “in Asia, for Asia” philanthropy. Rather than prescribing a single model, the research celebrates regional diversity, showcasing how jurisdictions are cultivating systems aligned to their cultural, institutional and socio-economic contexts. The Commission has identified multiple jurisdictional examples of pathways across the corporate-led, community-led and faith-based models to spark dialogue, foster shared learning and encourage regional collaboration to inform the evolution of domestic philanthropic ecosystems. “Asia is shaping a new paradigm for global philanthropy, one that is rooted in local relevance, innovation and strategic execution,” said Ichiro Kabasawa, Executive Director of The Nippon Foundation. He represents the Asia Philanthropy Congress, which is a co-convenor of the Commission on Asian Philanthropy. “By building on bold growth models, we’re not just increasing giving, we’re raising the standard for what philanthropy can achieve when it is deeply embedded in the communities it aims to serve.” The Commission consists of the following organisations: China Soong Ching Ling Foundation Erth Zayed Philanthropies The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust Kasikornthai Foundation King Khalid Foundation Nippon Foundation Piramal Foundation Tanoto Foundation Tata Consultancy Services Temasek Foundation Tencent Charity Foundation Yayasan Dompet Dhuafa Republika Yayasan Hasanah (a foundation of Khazanah Nasional Berhad (Malaysia)) Co-convenors: Asia Philanthropy Congress Institute of Philanthropy Co-secretariats: AVPN Voyage Hashtag: #CommissionOnAsianPhilanthropy #Philanthropy #CSR #CorporateGiving #AVPN The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. Asia Philanthropy Congress The Asia Philanthropy Congress was launched in 2022 as a venue for inviting the leaders of organizations in the philanthropy sector, especially foundations engaged with addressing social issues in the Asia region, and promoting cooperation and coordination aimed at solving these issues. Philanthropic activities––meaning both charitable work and social contribution––have an advantage in that they allow the swift provision of assistance in areas where public assistance from government agencies, corporate activities, or social investment cannot offer sufficient solutions. The congress gathers the leaders of the Asian philanthropy sector, especially from foundations that play a leading role in such activities, aiming to identify solutions together. Institute of Philanthropy The Institute of Philanthropy was established in September 2023 through a seed grant of HK$6.8 billion (US$870 million) from The Hong Kong Jockey Club and its Charities Trust. Established as an independent “think-fund-do” tank for China, Asia and beyond, IoP is dedicated to promoting philanthropic thought leadership and enhancing sector capabilities at local, regional and global levels in collaboration with fellow funders. It seeks to provide an Asia-based platform bringing global stakeholders together to promote the betterment of societies everywhere.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 8 September 2025 – Humansa, Asia’s leading longevity center, successfully hosted the “Targeted Anti-Aging · Dual-Box Revitalization” launch event at its Flagship Centre at the Victoria Dockside, Hong Kong, unveiling its ground-breaking Daily Glow Packs and Daily Vitality Packs. These innovative products are designed to address aging at the cellular level, leveraging cutting-edge science to target the 14 hallmarks of aging identified by the prestigious journal Cell. By addressing key aging factors such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and glycation, Humansa’s dual-box solution marks a new era in precision anti-aging nutrition. From left to right- Don So, Humansa CEO; Humansa ;Elaine Jiang, Humansa’s Founding Partner; Charmaine So, Humansa Wellness Coach; Former Olympian, Yvette Kong; Former Miss Hong Kong, Grace Chan; Dr. Candy Chan As Asia’s leader in comprehensive health solutions, Humansa integrates personalized health strategies into its offerings, leveraging advanced therapies, precision diagnostics, and data-driven evaluations to uncover deep health insights for its clients. Its holistic strategy covers every aspect of health, enabling tailored health plans that optimize well-being and healthspan. The introduction of the dual-box products exemplifies Humansa’s vision — integrating “cellular-level targeted anti-aging” into its comprehensive health ecosystem, making scientific anti-aging more effective, personalized, and convenient. During the event, Humansa CEO Don So delved into the brand’s anti-aging philosophy and strategic roadmap. He emphasized the importance of addressing aging at its root causes with scientific precision, highlighting how these new products integrate seamlessly into Humansa’s commitment to longevity and wellness. The event also hosted an expert discussion with renowned medical specialists, health consultants, and a celebrated Hong Kong artist. The panel explored the concept of decoding the 14 hallmarks of aging to address cellular aging signals, offering fresh scientific perspectives for both the industry and consumers. Dual-Box Innovation: Targeted Cellular Aging Solutions with Customized Anti-Aging Benefits Humansa’s newly launched Dual Anti-Aging Nutrition Packs are designed to align with the theme of “Targeted Anti-Aging,” offering precision-tailored solutions to meet the core needs of different individuals. This marks a shift from broad-spectrum interventions to targeted approaches that directly address cellular aging. Daily Glow Packs: Focused on skin rejuvenation needs, each pack combines 16 nutrients with four core ingredients: L-Ergothioneine, PQQ, Astaxanthin, and L-Carnosine. L-Ergothioneine (EGT): The “master antioxidant” within cells. Studies show that a daily dose of 25mg significantly improves skin health in just 4 weeks: 54.8% reduction in pore size, 21.6% fewer wrinkles, and 18.4% improvement in UV spots. PQQ: Enhances cellular energy production, with 21.5mg daily intake over 12 weeks, showing notable improvements in cognitive function and cerebral blood flow. Astaxanthin: Strengthens the skin barrier against photoaging. L-Carnosine: Inhibits collagen glycation, reducing fine lines and dullness. Daily Vitality Packs: Designed for high-stress professionals and men’s health needs, this pack features 15 selected ingredients with a core combination of L-Ergothioneine, PQQ, Milk Thistle, and Maca. Milk Thistle targets liver cell repair, alleviating the metabolic burden caused by late nights and social drinking. Maca enhances energy reserves, addressing fatigue caused by sedentary lifestyles and high stress. Combined with L-Ergothioneine and PQQ, this anti-aging and energy-boosting formula delivers multi-dimensional care, achieving “liver protection, fatigue reduction, and cellular revitalization.” Both products are packaged in convenient daily sachets, with precise doses of three capsules per pack, requiring no additional preparation. This portable design makes it easy for busy urbanites to incorporate “cellular-level targeted anti-aging” into their daily routines. Scientific Backing: Third-Party Validation Confirms Effective Anti-Aging Results Grounded in the 14 hallmarks of aging, Humansa’s research ensures that each ingredient targets critical aging mechanisms, transforming anti-aging solutions from theoretical concepts into practical, science-backed interventions. This approach offers consumers a safe, effective, and convenient way to address aging at its root. Humansa CEO Don So: New Products as an “Innovative Addition” to Comprehensive Anti-Aging Strategy At the launch event, Humansa CEO Don So outlined the brand’s core philosophy of building a science-based, full-cycle anti-aging system and explained the strategic significance of the new products. He emphasized: “At Humansa, we believe anti-aging is not just about ‘wrinkle reduction’ or ‘nutritional supplements.’ It’s a systematic approach built on five pillars: exercise, supplements and medication, sleep, emotional well-being, and nutrition. By scientifically identifying individual aging targets, such as low mitochondrial activity or weak liver metabolism, we implement multi-dimensional interventions. The new Dual Anti-Aging Nutrition Packs integrate seamlessly into this system, transforming anti-aging from ‘blind attempts’ to ‘scientifically controlled, targeted actions.’ This is the core mission we have always upheld.” Don So further highlighted the products’ strategic importance: “The Dual Anti-Aging Nutrition Packs represent an innovative upgrade to Humansa’s ‘nutritional support’ pillar. They fill a market gap for convenient, targeted cellular nutrition interventions while making the synergy of our five pillars more actionable. Users can leverage Humansa’s precision diagnostics to identify their weaknesses and match them with the appropriate packs. This targeted matching model brings science-driven anti-aging into daily life, enhancing the practicality of our comprehensive anti-aging strategy and solidifying our position as a global leader in holistic health solutions.” Experts and Celebrities Discuss: Decoding the 14 Hallmarks of Aging During the event’s roundtable discussion, Dr. Candy Chan, General Practitioner at Humansa; Charmaine So, Humansa’s Wellness Coach, Grace Chan, renowned Hong Kong celebrity and Olympian, Arelyx founder and CEO, Yvette Kong, explored the topic: “Decoding the 14 Hallmarks of Aging: How Should We Address Cellular Aging Signals?” and “How Women Can Find a Healthy Balance in a Fast-Paced Life.” Dr. Candy Chan emphasized the importance of targeting key aging mechanisms such as mitochondrial activity and oxidative stress; Grace Chan shared her personal experience, noting how Humansa’s products improved her skin and energy levels, while the convenient “one pack a day” design made it easy to maintain consistency. Charmaine So and the research center representative elaborated on how precision diagnostics combined with targeted nutrition can effectively address aging hallmarks, creating a closed-loop anti-aging system. The discussion reinforced the scientific foundation of Humansa’s products while providing actionable solutions for consumers, further validating their core value.
