KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 24 July 2025 – Methodist College Kuala Lumpur (MCKL) celebrated a major milestone on 5 July 2025 with the successful charity run, Dash for Charity at Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. The event saw close to 500 participants comprised of students, staff, alumni, partners, family, and friends who came together for a fun-filled 5KM run, all in the spirit of giving back to the community. At the break of dawn, families and friends gathered to enjoy live musical performances, food trucks, and children’s activities, creating a festive and heartwarming atmosphere in one of the city’s most luscious parks. A total of RM7,000 was raised for two charity organisations, a testament to the generosity and collective effort of everyone involved. Persatuan Kebajikan Sri Eden Selangor Kuala Lumpur, a non-profit centre that provides specialised education, therapy, and life skills training for children with special needs received RM4,000. While the remaining RM3,000 was channelled to Yayasan Sin Chew, a charitable foundation committed to supporting vulnerable communities across Malaysia through initiatives like disaster relief, medical assistance, and student sponsorships. These contributions will go a long way in supporting the work of both organisations and creating a meaningful impact in the lives of those they serve. “This run reflects MCKL’s core value of Celebrate Volunteerism, embodying our commitment to seek to serve, to actively look for and seize opportunities to help and make a positive impact on others,” said Dr. Chua Ping Yong, CEO of MCKL. “It’s about going the extra mile to make a difference in the lives of others, and we are proud to see our community unite for such a meaningful cause.” Though not a timed or competitive race, MCKL presented prizes to top three winners in two categories – individual and family. Top finishers were acknowledged with medals and hampers, rewarding them for their enthusiasm and effort. MCKL extends its heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors, German Educare, Monash University Malaysia, University of Nottingham Malaysia, and UOB Malaysia as well as all participants and crew members who made this event possible. “Without the amazing support from our sponsors, enthusiastic participants, and the dedicated event crew, Dash for Charity would not have been the success it was,” said the Chairman of the Organising Committee, Ng Jiehan. “Every contribution, whether it was a corporate sponsorship, a runner showing up bright and early, or a volunteer working tirelessly behind the scenes played a crucial role in making this event meaningful. It truly was a collective effort, and we are deeply grateful to everyone who came together to support our mission and make a real difference in the lives of those in need. Though the race is over, the spirit of giving continues in MCKL, and we look forward to more future initiatives that inspire change and strengthen community bonds,” Ng added. The run’s success extended beyond fundraising; it significantly elevated awareness for vital causes. The overwhelming support from participants, sponsors, and volunteers deeply motivates MCKL to champion further impactful initiatives. We believe in fostering an environment where education intersects with empathy, demonstrating how collective small steps can achieve profound differences.

HANGZHOU, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 23 July 2025 – Alibaba has launched Qwen3-Coder, its most advanced agentic AI coding model to date. Designed for high-performance software development, Qwen3-Coder excels in agentic AI coding tasks, from generating new codes and managing complex coding workflows to debugging across entire codebases. Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct achieves competitive results against leading state-of-the-art (SOTA) models across key benchmarks Built on a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture, this open-sourced model Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct, which has a total of 480 billion parameters but activates 35 billion parameters per token, delivers efficiency without sacrificing performance. The model achieves competitive results against leading state-of-the-art (SOTA) models across key benchmarks in agentic coding, browser use, and tool use. Additionally, Alibaba is open-sourcing Qwen Code, a powerful command-line interface (CLI) tool that enables developers to delegate engineering tasks to AI using natural language. Optimized with custom prompts and interaction protocols, Qwen Code unlocks the full potential of Qwen3-Coder for real-world agentic programming. The model also supports integration with the Claude Code interface, making it even easier for developers to execute their coding tasks. Trained on an extensive dataset of codes and general text data, Qwen3-Coder is engineered for robust agentic coding. It natively supports a context window of 256K tokens, extendable up to 1 million tokens, enabling it to process vast codebases in a single session. Its superior performance stems not only from scaling across tokens, context length, and synthetic data during pre-training, but also from innovative post-training techniques such as long-horizon reinforcement learning (agent RL). This advancement allows the model to solve complex, real-world problems through multi-step interactions with external tools. As a result, Qwen3-Coder achieves SOTA performance among open-source models on SWE-Bench Verified (a benchmark for evaluating AI models’ ability to solve real-world software issues), even without test-time or inference scaling. Agentic AI coding is transforming software development by enabling more autonomous, efficient, and accessible programming workflows. With its open-source availability, strong agentic coding capabilities, and seamless compatibility with popular developer tools and interfaces, Qwen3-Coder is positioned as a valuable tool for global developers in software development. The Qwen3-Coder-480B-A35B-Instruct model is now available on Hugging Face and GitHub. Developers can also access the model on Qwen Chat or via cost-effective APIs through Model Studio, Alibaba’s generative AI development platform. Qwen-based coding models have already surpassed 20 million downloads globally. Tongyi Lingma, Alibaba Cloud’s Qwen-powered coding assistant, will soon be upgraded with Qwen3-Coder’s enhanced agentic capabilities. Since its launch in June 2024, Tongyi Lingma’s “AI Programmer” feature—offering code completion, optimization, debugging support, snippet search, and batch unit test generation—has generated over 3 billion lines of code.Hashtag: #Alibaba The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
