The 2nd Hohhot International Sculpture Art Exhibition: Using Sculpture to Bridge China and the World

HOHHOT, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2025 – The 2nd Hohhot International Sculpture Art Exhibition has opened at the Hohhot Sculpture Art Museum, showcasing 95 works by 80 artists from 20 countries, including China, France, Germany, and Italy. The event has drawn crowds of local residents and visitors from across the country, building a bridge of artistic exchange between this historic frontier city of northern China and the wider world. The 2nd Hohhot International Sculpture Art Exhibition This year’s theme is Telling China’s Story Through the Art of Sculpture. The inaugural exhibition in October 2023 took the Silk Road as its cultural thread, creating a platform for dialogue. The current edition continues that mission, once again attracting artists from 20 countries. According to the organizers, the museum itself is a work of art — a sunken building transformed from an abandoned foundation pit, reflecting the Eastern aesthetic of “turning decay into magic.” It has quickly become a new landmark for the city. The 2nd Hohhot International Sculpture Art Exhibition Since opening in 2023, the museum has hosted two international exhibitions and seven themed shows, welcoming more than 820,000 visitors. Together with the Inner Mongolia Museum, the Inner Mongolia Art Museum, and the Grassland Silk Road Park, it forms a 5.6-kilometer “cultural axis”, which is a key showcase of Hohhot’s cultural vitality. The exhibition features 95 sculptures in bronze, stone, metal, and other materials, spanning styles from realism to abstraction, and enticing visitors to linger. Yang Xiaowen, a Hohhot resident with a taste for geometric and abstract works, said, “Compared with past years, this year’s pieces feel fresher and resonate more with my personal aesthetic.” His 8-year-old daughter, Yang Mu, pointed to a work titled Strawberry Bunny and exclaimed, “It cleverly combines a strawberry and a rabbit. I love it.” Cristian Biasci, Director of the Sculpture Department at the Florence Academy of Art, noted that in today’s increasingly virtual world, public sculpture is more vital than ever as an artistic language that reconnects us with real human relationships. He sees the Hohhot exhibition as a living example of how sculpture can be integrated into public spaces. “This is an aesthetic dialogue across time and space between Chinese and international artists,” said Jing Yumin, Vice Chairman of the China Urban Sculptors Association. “These works are not only frozen moments of artistic expression but also fluid exchanges of thought, reflecting the idea of ‘harmonious coexistence and shared beauty.’” He hopes the sculptures will be both a delightful surprise for local residents and a window for the world to better understand China, and for China to engage with the world. The exhibition runs from August 2025 to January 2026, with sculpture salons, art markets, and other events planned throughout the period.

The Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) Asia 2025 returns to Singapore with a strong regional coalition against scams

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2025 – As scam networks across Southeast Asia grow more coordinated and transnational, the Global Anti-Scam Alliance (GASA) is responding with counterforce and progress. This year’s Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) Asia 2025 will be held on 2-3 September in Singapore and will convene over 1,200 industry leaders, policymakers, and enforcement agencies from over 60 countries (physical and online) to address the real-world strategies for preventing and disrupting online scams at scale. “Scams are no longer isolated incidents, they are a systemic, cross-border threat. GASA’s role is to connect the dots, not just across sectors, but across borders, creating the shared infrastructure needed to act faster and smarter,” said Jorij Abraham, Managing Director, GASA. “Over the past year, we’ve scaled our membership, launched new national chapters in high-priority markets, and strengthened data-sharing through the Global Signal Exchange. The summit is where these efforts come together into concrete action.” Exponential growth in partnerships GASA’s membership has doubled globally, with the Singapore Chapter now exceeding 100 members, including major organisations such as Amazon, Google, MasterCard, Meta and Microsoft, alongside government, enforcement, and civil society stakeholders. Singapore’s role as a strategic testbed for anti-scam policy frameworks, technology pilots, and cross-sector coordination has made it a hub for regional collaboration. In the past year, GASA has deepened its presence across the Southeast Asia region, having established chapters in two of the region’s important markets: the Philippines and Indonesia. These economies are heavily mobile-first, with widespread use of digital finance tools, making scams a significant consumer and economic threat. . In Indonesia, the chapter is chaired by Reski Damayanti, Chief Legal & Regulatory Officer, at Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, one of the country’s leading telecom providers. According to GASA’s 2024 Asia Scam Report, 65% of Indonesians experience scam attempts every week, from phishing texts and fake job offers to investment fraud. With telcos increasingly targeted through phishing, SMS spoofing, and fake service alerts, the chapter will focus on industry-wide intelligence sharing, public awareness campaigns, and closer alignment with national authorities. In the Philippines, the chapter is co-chaired by Irish Salandanan-Almeida, Chief Privacy Officer and Vice-President for Governance, Risk, and Compliance and Derick Ohmar Adil, Head, AI and Privacy Governance, at Globe Telecom. As one of the nation’s largest digital service providers, Globe has been at the forefront of consumer protection initiatives, from blocking malicious SMS at scale to launching awareness campaigns. “These chapters are more than local extensions. They are strategic footholds in markets where digitalisation is instrumental in raising standards of living, yet scams threaten to undermine this. By bringing in national champions like Indosat and Globe, we’re embedding GASA’s model into the heart of each market’s digital ecosystem. It is heartening to see this community of scam fighters assembling a short 2 years after we led the establishment of GASA in this region.” said Rajat Maheshwari, Chair, GASA Singapore Chapter. A stronger data backbone: Global Signal Exchange (GSE) More than 35 organisations are now contributing scam signals to the Global Signal Exchange (GSE), supported among others by GASA, Google, GSMA, Meta, Microsoft and other key players. The GSE is a global clearinghouse for the real-time sharing of scam and fraud threat signals – URLs, domains, IP addresses, emails and more. Since its launch in January 2025, GSE has grown from 40 million to 370 million signals. More than 230 organisations are now onboarded or in the pipeline to join. During the summit, GSE will also announce an important milestone and honoured addition to its program. Other key highlights at the summit include: Fireside chat featuring Mr. Tan Kiat How, Senior Minister of State, Ministry of Digital Development, Ministry of Health, and Patron of the GASA Singapore Chapter Launch of the Southeast Asia Scam Report, presented by Rajat Maheshwari, Chair of the GASA Singapore Chapter Panel deep dives on regional scam typologies, enforcement strategies, and cross-border disruption tactics INTERPOL session on cybercrime operations and challenges in Asia United Nations (UN) on trafficking networks linked to scam centres in Asia Researcher and investigator Paul Raffile, on cyber extortion, impersonation scams, and blind spots in digital victim protection The Anti-scam pitch room, showcasing real-world tools and early-stage innovation in scam prevention and detection Launch of Anti-Scam resources by various GASA Members (e.g. Tech for Good Institute) To register for GASS Asia 2025, please visit https://events.gasa.org/gass-asia2025/home For media registration, interview opportunities, or to attend the media lunch briefing on 2nd September, please contact [email protected].

eefit Returns to the International Academic Stage — Patented Far Infrared Technology Praised by Nobel Laureate and Renowned Scientists

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 12 August 2025 – With a rapidly increasing aging population, chronic non-communicable diseases and sub-health problems faced by middle-aged and elderly people have become even more prominent. Modern medicine has standardised our current diagnosis and treatment system, especially in the intervention of acute symptoms and pathological control. However, in the face of health needs such as long-term management of chronic diseases and conditioning of sub-health problems, which require a “holistic view” and “continuous repair”, its limitations in areas such as healthcare, functional restoration, and improvement of quality of life are gradually becoming apparent. In the context of improving the lifestyle and functional regulation of middle-aged and elderly people, we seek to help improve their health in a gentle and sustainable manner by exploring new health protection paths outside of traditional medicine. ​​“The 9th Young Scholars Conference on Ion Channels and Receptors & Forum on Biophysics and Innovative Drug Discovery” was held in June 2025. As a leading energy healthcare technology company, “eefit” became the focus of the event, revealing to the world the innovative application of their patented far infrared technology in healthcare, with results verified by internationally renowned academics and authorities. The benefit provides systematic health management solutions for the middle-aged and elderly population through non-invasive and non-drug methods, creating a new chapter in health technology. Recognized by Nobel Laureate and Renowned Scientists, eefit Far Infrared Technology is Acclaimed by International Authorities Organized by the Macau University of Science and Technology (M.U.S.T.), this forum brought together experts in various disciplines from around the world, including neuroscientists and biophysicists. In attendance was 1991 Nobel Laureate in Physiology or Medicine Dr. Erwin Neher, who attended the event as the keynote speaker. It’s worth noting that eefit has been collaborating closely with “Dr. Neher’s Biophysics Laboratory for Innovative Drug Discovery” since 2021, promoting transformative scientific research in far infrared technology. On a similar note, Prof. Vincent Wong of M.U.S.T. (among the top 2% of scientists in the world) introduced the significant effects of eefit’s patented far infrared technology in improving intestinal microecology, regulating cell immunity, and alleviating symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. His team’s latest research has confirmed that this technology not only can enhance cerebral blood flow and reduce brain damage in patients with ischemic stroke but can also provide an innovative solution for rehabilitation treatment. Far Infrared Technology is Changing Our Lives eefit Has Constructed an All-encompassing “Prevention + Maintenance + Restoration” Health Management System The middle-aged and elderly population is plagued by health issues, such as chronic pain, sleep disorders, immune system disorders, and Alzheimer’s disease. eefit provides comprehensive solutions to address these issues through developing innovative healthcare products. At the forum, experts gathered at the booth set up by eefit to experience firsthand how technology redefines the health management of the elderly. Case 1: Disease prevention – protecting brain health at the source eefit’s patented technology reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s disease by reducing Aβ deposits and abnormal tau proteins. The latest research paper presented on-site showed that eefit far infrared energy can penetrate the blood-brain barrier, intervene in pathological protein aggregation, and build a strong line of defense for brain health. Case 2: Brain healthcare – improving stroke sequelae and neurological function For patients suffering from sequelae of stroke, eefit Luminous Energy Helmet and Meridian Pro Illuminator can promote microcirculation in the head and improve cerebral blood flow. The research conducted by the research team of Prof. Vincent Wong has confirmed that this technology can reduce stroke sequelae symptoms and dizziness. An expert user at the forum excitedly shared his feedback, “I am a loyal fan of eefit products. I wear the Luminous Energy Helmet for 20 minutes daily. After one month, I find my memory improved, and I don’t get dizzy as often.” Case 3: Chronic pain management – quick relief for joint and muscle pain In the field of pain management, products like EEFit Lite can accurately irradiate pain points and inhibit the release of inflammatory factors. Experts verified that “10 minutes of irradiation can reduce knee pain on a pain scale from 6 to 3, with effects lasting for more than 2 hours”. Case 4: Sleep quality – natural relief for nervous system eefit far infrared technology can relieve insomnia by regulating nervous system functions. eefit data shows that after daily use for 2 weeks, over 80% of users experienced a 50% reduction in the time they took to fall asleep, as well as an increased duration of deep sleep. Case 5: Digestive system repair – two-way regulation of intestinal microecology eefit far infrared energy achieves two-way regulation of gut microbiota in an innovative manner by inhibiting the excessive proliferation of pathogens while promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria and regulating the imbalance of intestinal microecology. Experimental data shows that after two weeks of intervention, the alpha diversity of gut microbiota (Chao1 index) increased by 30%, and abdominal bloating decreased by 45%. Nobel Laureate Dr. Neher and Prof. Vincent Wong expressed that the eefit technology system demonstrates innovation and practicality at the international forefront, establishing a new model for the health management of the elderly. Integrating Industry, Academia and Research: Innovative Paths Leading Industry Development eefit first introduced far infrared technology into health management through independent technology R&D and commercialization execution, which then attracted collaboration with reputable scientific research institutions. This closed-loop ecosystem of “Demand-Driven Innovation” demonstrates benefit’s ability to focus on the core benefits of products by starting from users’ pain points then feeding back technological improvements into scientific research. At the forum banquet, eefit’s Founder and Chairman Prof. Nick Wang remarked, “We are honoured, looking back on our eight-year partnership between eefit and the research laboratory. This period of collaboration with deep integration of industry, academia and research has not only pioneered groundbreaking research but also produced fruitful scientific and technological achievements.” He emphasized that eefit has always been “user demand-oriented” at its core, by first verifying the value of technology through market research

Sunlight Real Estate Investment Trust (“Sunlight REIT”) Interim Results for the Six Months Ended 30 June 2025

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 August 2025 – Henderson Sunlight Asset Management Limited (the “Manager”) announces the interim results of Sunlight REIT for the six months ended 30 June 2025 (the “Reporting Period“). Sunlight REIT recorded a 4.8% year-on-year decline in revenue to HK$391.2 million for the Reporting Period. Net property income was down by 5.4% to HK$307.4 million and the cost-to-income ratio was 21.4%. Distributable income was relatively sturdy with a mild drop of 1.8% to HK$168.6 million, reflecting the positive impact from an approximately 14% savings in cash interest expense to HK$91.5 million. The Board has resolved to declare an interim distribution per unit of HK 9.1 cents, representing a payout ratio of 93.8% and an annualized distribution yield of 8.1% based on the closing price of HK$2.26 on the last trading day of the Reporting Period. At 30 June 2025, the appraised value of Sunlight REIT’s real estate portfolio was HK$17,630.5 million. Total assets stood at HK$18,220.2 million, while its net assets attributable to unitholders came in at HK$12,634.1 million, implying a net asset value of HK$7.27 per unit. Operating Highlights The overall occupancy rate of Sunlight REIT’s portfolio at 30 June 2025 was 89.2% as compared to 91.3% at 31 December 2024, of which the office occupancy rate dropped to 90.0%, while the retail occupancy rate came in at 87.6%. At 30 June 2025, the passing rent of the office portfolio declined mildly by 1.2% from six months ago to HK$31.7 per sq. ft., while that of the retail portfolio was stable at HK$65.5 per sq. ft. At 30 June 2025, the occupancy rate of Dah Sing Financial Centre was 90.6%, while its passing rent remained steady at HK$36.3 per sq. ft. As for the retail portfolio, Sheung Shui Centre Shopping Arcade recorded a lower occupancy rate of 87.0% at 30 June 2025, but its passing rent registered a slight improvement to HK$105.2 per sq. ft. Meanwhile, due to the departure of an education tenant in the second quarter of 2025, the occupancy rate of Metro City Phase I Property slipped to 87.1%, while its passing rent was HK$53.9 per sq. ft. Mr. Au Siu Kee, Alexander, Chairman of the Manager, said, “Hong Kong’s commercial property market has yet to benefit from a more stable economic setting as the ongoing headwinds remain stiff, and the pressure of negative rental reversion is likely to stay. However, we are delighted to report that the refinancing of borrowings maturing in the next 12 months is progressing smoothly with favourable indicative pricing, underscoring the financial strength of Sunlight REIT. In sum, while it is envisaged that operational hurdles are bound to persist, the possibility of lower funding costs may help alleviate pressure on distributable income.” Remarks: Attached financial highlights of 2025 interim results of Sunlight REIT.
