iCare Eyecare’s Mission: Keep your eyes, sharpen your edge, and promote your wellness HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 7 February 2025 – With the rise of digital media, screen devices have become an integral part of everybody’s life, and e-learning is an inevitable trend in school. However, this has posed unprecedented challenges to the visual health of everyone, especially children. According to a recent study by The Chinese University of Hong Kong, the prevalence of myopia among children in Hong Kong has reached a record high. Notably, after the pandemic, the myopia rate among six-year-olds surged from 13.9% pre-pandemic to 25%, nearly doubling. This trend has raised widespread concerns as myopia is now considered a multifaceted condition that significantly impacts eye health in the long run. In addition to myopia, children may also suffer from other refractive errors (such as hyperopia and astigmatism), strabismus, and various levels of dynamic visual impairments, such as convergence insufficiency (CI). These eye conditions can significantly hamper children’s reading, learning, concentration, and sports performance, potentially affecting their overall development. Parents must be aware of these issues and seek professional analysis to ensure their child’s vision is not a barrier to their success. Experience analysis combined with advanced equipment such as Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and automated eye movement analysis systems Studies in the United States indicate that 1 in 4 children experiences some form of visual impairment, which can sometimes be misdiagnosed as neurodevelopmental disorders such as dyslexia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or other learning disabilities. Misdiagnosis, as such, can severely impact a child’s academic and motor development. In Hong Kong, families often lack awareness of the connection between vision problems and learning or motor skills. Children with visual impairments may display short attention spans, skip lines when reading, have difficulty retaining information, experience discomfort or fatigue, or even avoid reading altogether, behaviors resembling ADHD. Moreover, convergence insufficiency (CI) occurs more frequently among ADHD patients than in the general population. Apart from academic hardship, various vision disabilities can also lead to poor depth perception, meager eye tracking proficiency, and below-par visual signal brain processing, collectively translating to low performance in sports such as ball games. This underlines the urgent need for parents to be aware of these issues and seek professional analysis to ensure their child’s vision is not a barrier to their success. Dynamic and Sports Vision Training to Sharpen Your Edge To improve children’s overall visual function, iCare Eyecare offers evidence-based myopia management services, customized orthokeratology (OK lenses) treatments, unique dynamic and sports vision analysis and training programs. These services aim to promote children’s long-term eye health, improve overall visual function, and bolster their learning and athletic performance.

With years of experience and a deep understanding of vision science, Dr. Marco and his team employ diverse advanced technologies, such as Optical Coherent Tomography (OCT), non-invasive optical ocular biometry, corneal topography, and automated eye movement analysis systems.Their expertise, combined with state-of-the-art technologies, enables unmatched comprehensive optometric and visual function assessments, creating personalized eye care plans and professionally tailored vision training recommendations for every child. Maintaining good visual health and dynamic vision abilities is crucial in today’s ever-changing world. For instance, in emergencies, well-developed visual skills can help individuals anticipate and react to situations more quickly, potentially saving lives! Both static and dynamic visual skills are essential in daily life, whether reading or participating in sports like football or basketball. With scientific analysis, individuals can now better understand their sports vision capabilities. Most importantly, customized and effective training can be carried out to sharpen their edge in case of a flaw. This knowledge empowers parents to take proactive steps to ensure their child’s visual health is not overlooked. iCare Eyecare Professional Services Include: 1. Myopia Management for Children: Professional advice and evidence-based practice to control myopia progression. 2. Dynamic and Sports Vision Analysis and Training: Comprehensive assessments and specific training to enhance visual skills. 3.

VinFast is redefining the EV market with industry-leading warranties, including a 10-year/200,000-kilometer vehicle warranty and unlimited mileage battery coverage, easing consumer doubts and building trust. MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 6 February 2025 – Just a few years ago, car warranties were predictable: a standard three years or nearly 60,000 kilometers—whichever came first. It didn’t matter whether the vehicle was a luxury sedan or a modest hatchback – this was the norm. Today, this long-standing rule is being upended. Automakers are now competing to offer more generous warranty policies, a trend that underscores a shifting automotive landscape. Among these disruptors, VinFast, the upstart electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer, has drawn attention with its industry-leading warranty terms. VinFast’s warranty strategy does more than instill confidence; it fosters lasting relationships between the brand and its customers. Long Warranties Are Essential in the EV Era Historically, warranties were an afterthought for many buyers. In the early days of the modern automobile, coverage was meager—90 days for materials and just 30 days for labor. As vehicle quality improved, so did warranty offerings. By 2019, the industry standard had risen to three years or nearly 60,000 kilometers. Still, for most drivers, this coverage expired well before their vehicles had aged significantly. The shift toward longer warranties is not coincidental. It reflects rising confidence in manufacturing quality and serves as a powerful tool for building customer trust while easing concerns about repair costs. This assurance is particularly vital for EVs, a technology still unfamiliar to many consumers. Unlike internal combustion engine vehicles, EVs rely on advanced batteries and electric drivetrains—components that can intimidate first-time buyers. Long warranties alleviate these concerns, making them invaluable tools for convincing skeptics to embrace electric mobility. “Our study shows that 67% of dealers believe that extended warranties help reduce uncertainty among potential car buyers. In addition, warranties also reduce uncertainty when purchasing electric cars (56%)…,” said Konrad Wessner, Managing Director at puls Marktforschung GmbH, a German-based market research company. In terms of long warranty, VinFast stands out. Its latest offering in the Philippines, the VF 7, comes with a 10-year/200,000-kilometer vehicle warranty and a 10-year unlimited mileage battery warranty (for battery purchases). Other models, such as the VF 3 and VF 5, also boast segment-leading warranties, including a seven-year/160,000-kilometer vehicle warranty and an eight-year unlimited mileage battery warranty for units purchased with a battery. VinFast’s Approach to Customer Confidence and Loyalty VinFast’s warranty strategy does more than instill confidence; it fosters lasting relationships between the brand and its customers. This approach aligns with findings from CarGarantie, a European provider specializing in warranty solutions and repair cost insurance. “Warranties make it easier to sell vehicles, bind buyers to dealers, and protect customers from additional costs. This makes purchasing decisions easier and increases profitability,” said Marcus Söldner, CEO of CarGarantie. This model benefits both customers and manufacturers. For buyers, it’s a financial safety net, shielding them from unforeseen repair expenses. For automakers like VinFast, it’s a demonstration of product quality and a commitment to long-term customer satisfaction. The result is a mutually beneficial relationship, akin to the binding agreements seen in mobile phone contracts, where both parties have something to gain. The impact of this customer-centric strategy is evident in VinFast’s rapid rise. In its home market of Vietnam, the company achieved record-breaking sales in December 2024, securing its position as the top-selling automaker for the fourth quarter of the year. This success underscores the effectiveness of its customer-first approach, which pairs cutting-edge EV technology with unparalleled after-sales support. A New Standard in the Automotive Industry As the industry evolves, long warranties may well become the norm, setting a higher bar for what customers demand. Viewed in this lens, VinFast’s warranty policies are redefining what customers can expect from their vehicles. The commitment to a segment-leading warranty speaks volumes about the company’s confidence in its products and its dedication to customer satisfaction. With each new vehicle sold, VinFast isn’t just delivering an EV—it’s delivering peace of mind. And in a world increasingly defined by uncertainty, that may be the most valuable offering of all.Hashtag: #VinFast #EV The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 6 February 2025 – XTransfer, the world-leading and China’s No.1 B2B Cross-Border Trade Payment Platform, and Ecobank Group, the leading private pan-African financial services group with unrivalled African expertise, have signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding of Cooperation (MOU) to roll out comprehensive cross-border financial services to Africa’s small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) engaged in foreign trade. The collaboration will facilitate trade between China and African countries. XTransfer Partners with Ecobank Group In recent years, China and Africa have continued to deepen trade cooperation, with the scale of imports and exports rising rapidly. In 2023, bilateral trade reached a record US$282 billion. From January to November 2024, China’s exports to Africa totalled US$160 billion, a 1.4% increase from the previous year, while imports from Africa reached US$107 billion, marking a substantial rise of 6.6%. Despite this growth, African SMEs engaged in foreign trade face numerous challenges related to cross-border payments and fund collections. These challenges include difficulties in opening accounts with traditional banks, a high risk of funds being frozen, difficulties in foreign exchange and related losses, lengthy remittance times and high remittance costs. The partnership between XTransfer and Ecobank Group will foster collaboration between both parties to provide comprehensive cross-border payment solutions for African SMEs’ foreign trade. XTransfer will leverage Ecobank’s extensive network across Africa, enabling its Chinese clients to collect funds in local African currencies while assisting African SMEs in making payments in their local currencies to negate foreign exchange issues. Bill Deng, Founder and CEO of XTransfer, stated, “We are excited about the partnership with Ecobank. This collaboration represents a significant milestone for XTransfer and greatly enhances our global payment capabilities. Leveraging Ecobank’s extensive payment network in Africa will accelerate our business expansion in the region. We are looking forward to the synergies and opportunities this partnership will create. Together, we will drive innovation and improve the financial landscape, making financial services more efficient and accessible for African SMEs.” Jeremy Awori, CEO Ecobank Group, said, “We are proud to partner with XTransfer to advance seamless cross-border payment solutions between Africa and China. This partnership builds on our established strategy, which includes a representative office in China and a dedicated China desk. By integrating XTransfer’s cutting-edge solutions with our pan-African payment platform, we simplify payments, reduce transaction costs, and enable African businesses to thrive in global trade.” The partnership will facilitate trade between SMEs in China and African countries and also streamline foreign trade transactions between African companies and their global partners. Ultimately, this will help reduce the costs of global trade and enhance the global competitiveness of African SMEs. This partnership aligns with Ecobank’s goals of driving financial integration by facilitating seamless cross-border trade, which is the backbone of the continent’s economy growth. By collaborating with XTransfer, Ecobank is strengthening its position as a key player in the global payments industry by reducing trade barriers, enabling African SMEs to thrive in international markets and contribute to the continent’s sustainable development.
