    Industry Leaders, Regulators, and Innovators to Convene in Bangkok at the Intersection Where Digital Assets and Traditional Banking Enter a New Era of Collaboration

    BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 April 2026 – the world’s leading fintech show and the place where money does business, today announced the introduction of The Intersection Stage at Money20/20 Asia happening on April 21-23 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok bringing together the region’s most powerful voices across banking, payments, digital assets, and financial innovation.

    AS26 SHOWFLOOR 16x9

    This year’s theme, “From Infrastructure to Impact – Where Technology Meets Humanity,” underscores how the Intersection Stage will explore the real-world outcomes of Traditional Finance and Decentralized Finance convergence across APAC, addressing how banks, fintechs, and emerging technologies are reshaping the global financial ecosystem. The stage brings together leaders from major financial institutions and well-known fintech companies to discuss how innovation, regulation, and new financial infrastructure are transforming areas such as digital assets, trust and cybersecurity, and cross-border payments. [1]

    Siva Kumar, APAC Legal Director, Sumsub, said, “The convergence of TradFi and DeFi can only succeed if trust, identity, and compliance evolve alongside technology. Asia is leading this shift by adopting regulatory models that enable innovation without compromising security. At Sumsub, we’re witnessing institutions accelerate digital identity and verification standards at unprecedented speed. The Intersection Stage brings these critical stakeholders together to turn regulatory progress into real‑world impact.”

    Speakers include Siddharth Gupta of Bank of America, Dhiraj Bajaj of Standard Chartered Bank, Fangfang Jiang of the International Finance Corporation, Ran Goldi, SVP Payments & Network, Fireblocks and Kaushik Sthankiya of Kraken, who will share insights on regulatory innovation, digital asset adoption, developments in stablecoin, tokenization, blockchain‑enabled settlement, and how new payment rails are enabling faster and more efficient cross-border transactions.

    For decades, Traditional Finance aimed to protect the system while Decentralized Finance wanted to reinvent it. Today, these two worlds are converging where digital money moves faster than ever, said Danny Levy, EVP & Managing Director for APAC & the Middle East at Money20/20. The Intersection Stage brings together the regulators and innovators driving the frameworks that will guide the next decade of global finance.

    The broader 2026 program also features keynote speakers such as Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Government of Hong Kong SAR; Shahril Azuar Jimin, Group Chief Sustainability Officer at Maybank; and Sunita Kannan, Global Head of AI Product & Strategy at Microsoft, underscoring the calibre of leadership shaping the future of finance across the region.

    From Asia’s pioneering regulatory sandboxes and CBDC initiatives to the Genius Act in the US to MiCA in Europe. Regulated institutions like AMINA Bank are at the forefront of this transformation, particularly in navigating the evolving regulatory landscape across key markets.

    Cora Ang, Head of Legal & Compliance APAC, AMINA Bank said, “Asia is demonstrating what responsible innovation truly looks like. As digital assets, tokenization, and new payment rails gain momentum, strong legal and compliance frameworks are essential to scaling them safely. At AMINA Bank, we see the region embracing this balance with clarity and ambition. The Intersection Stage at Money20/20 Asia is the perfect forum to advance these conversations and align the industry on what the next generation of financial infrastructure should be.”

  • ASEAN Travel Influencers Check In at Beibu Gulf! This Cultural-Tourism Exchange Is a Hit — “Not-So-Distant Destinations” Are on Fire

    NANNING, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 April 2026 – Recently, the “Romantic Coast, Beautiful Southern Border” promotion — a new-media cultural and tourism campaign inviting ASEAN travel influencers to check in across Guangxi’s Beibu Gulf — was held in six cities: Nanning, Beihai, Qinzhou, Fangchenggang, Yulin and Chongzuo. The event invited travel influencers from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines and Indonesia, and formed a media delegation with representatives from China News Service, China Culture Daily, Guangxi Daily and others. Working along two routes, they took in the Beibu Gulf (Guangxi) Golden Tourism Belt in depth, using their lenses to capture the beauty of mountains and sea and their pens to tell stories of the southern border, so that the unique charm of Guangxi’s Beibu Gulf could ride the wave of the internet and go viral across ASEAN social circles.

    Six days, six cities, two routes — the itinerary was full and surprises kept coming. Among the flower seas of Qingxiu Mountain, breezes carrying the scent of blossoms brushed their faces; beside the China-Vietnam border river, they shared coffee across the water and sampled borderland atmosphere; on Weizhou Island by volcanic rock, they waited for a tangerine-red sunset over the sea, a panorama that left influencers calling it “breathtaking”; beneath Zhenwu Pavilion, the nail-free, bolt-free pure-wood construction amazed everyone; at the Jing ethnic museum, the plaintive notes of the single-stringed lute lingered in the ear; in the swell of Sanniang Bay, playful white dolphins suddenly appeared… These vivid, restorative experiences were captured on camera and in writing by the influencers, transformed into short videos and illustrated guides, crossing oceans to precisely strike the hearts of ASEAN netizens and make viewers yearn for the destination even through their screens.

    Why the Beibu Gulf? This culturaltourism exchange was bound to happen.

    The Beibu Gulf (Guangxi) is already China’s foremost “traffic window” for exchanges with ASEAN. Geographic proximity and shared cultural roots make it the most familiar first stop for ASEAN visitors entering China. Nanning is a gateway and frontline of China-ASEAN openness and cooperation, known as the “China Green City” and “a place beloved by folk singers,” and holding honors such as the UN-Habitat Award, National Civilized City, National Ecological Garden City, National Sanitary City, National Forest City, and China Excellent Tourist City. As the permanent host city of the China-ASEAN Expo, every autumn political leaders, businesspeople and tourists from ASEAN converge here—so the city already carries an innate warmth for ASEAN guests. Fangchenggang lies just a river away from Mong Cai, Vietnam; border residents routinely cross over to visit, and Cantonese, Zhuang and Vietnamese blend seamlessly through the streets. Detian Waterfall in Chongzuo spans China and Vietnam—China on the left bank, Vietnam on the right—where the roar of the falls brings the two countries’ stories together in a single striking scene. Beihai was one of the earliest departure ports on the ancient Maritime Silk Road and still welcomes cruises and travelers from Southeast Asia; on Silver Beach you can often hear familiar Thai and Malay languages. Container ships from Qinzhou Port shuttle frequently between the Beibu Gulf and ASEAN ports. Although Yulin is inland, its trade in traditional Chinese medicine links it to ASEAN markets—medicinal materials distributed from Yulin reach Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and beyond each year, forming an “invisible tie” with ASEAN.

    This geographic closeness creates a natural cultural affinity. As the influencers observed, ASEAN visitors can immediately find familiar “home tastes” upon arriving in the Beibu Gulf—Vietnamese drip coffee, Thai spices, Malaysian Musang King durian and other ASEAN foods are everywhere, prompting comments like “it feels just like home.” At the same time, the majestic beat of Zhuang bronze drums, the intangible-heritage charm of the Jing one-stringed lute, the resplendent singing of Yong opera, and the craftmanship of Zhenwu Pavilion introduce them to a different facet of Chinese culture. That blend of “familiar surprises and friendly strangeness” is Guangxi Beibu Gulf’s most compelling cultural-tourism asset—it is not a faraway, unattainable place but a heartwarming destination ASEAN visitors can “come to on a whim,” and a treasure trove where many find they “don’t want to leave.”

    For these reasons, the campaign deliberately targeted ASEAN travel influencers as “seeders.” This was not a one-way promotional push but a two-way content co-creation. Influencers used their native languages and the forms their followers trust to share authentic experiences in Guangxi. That natural trust and empathy cut far deeper than blunt advertising. As one accompanying journalist remarked, “When they post it, ASEAN audiences just can’t stop watching.” The influencers understand exactly what their followers want to see and how to bring a city to life in the most relatable way.

    With policy incentives and innovative communication, the gateway to culture and tourism in the Beibu Gulf is opening wider and wider!

    To stand out in the cultural tourism scene, it’s not enough to have stunning attractions—thoughtful service matters just as much. The implementation of inbound travel facilitation policies such as “China’s 240-hour visa-free transit” and “instant tax refunds upon departure purchase” has made travel to the Beibu Gulf much easier for ASEAN visitors. With simpler visa procedures and more cost-effective spending, spontaneous cross-border trips have become effortlessly achievable here.

    At the same time, innovative promotional strategies combining “offline immersive experiences + online viral dissemination” have been adopted. Influential ASEAN travel creators, each with their own following, have become ambassadors for the Beibu Gulf. Through their lenses, they capture its coastal and mountain scenery, historical heritage, cuisine, and local customs—not as cold descriptions, but as vivid, heartfelt, and relatable moments. This people-centered, emotion-driven approach to storytelling allows the romance and charm of the Beibu Gulf to ripple across ASEAN digital networks, continuously expanding its reach.

    Although the event has concluded, the cultural tourism promotion of the Beibu Gulf is only just beginning. The creators return home with rich materials—editing dynamic short videos, writing practical travel guides, and sharing their experiences with followers. In the past, Guangxi’s Beibu Gulf may have been just a vague geographical concept for ASEAN tourists. Now, through the creators’ perspectives, it has become a “distant yet reachable destination”—a place filled with familiar everyday warmth, surprising intangible cultural heritage, breathtaking coastal and mountain views, the gentle charm of local streets and alleys, a profound history spanning millennia, and the vibrant pulse of China–Vietnam cultural integration.

    As the impact of the campaign continues to grow, the story of the Beibu Gulf in Guangxi is being seen by more and more people—and its charm awaits even more visitors to discover it for themselves.

    Olympic Champion Gable Steveson Joins 1win as Global Ambassador Ahead of RAF09 Bout

    DUBAI, UAE – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 April 2026 – Global brand 1win announced a new partnership with American heavyweight wrestler and Tokyo 2020 Olympic champion Gable Steveson, who joins the company as a global ambassador. The collaboration was revealed through posts on the 1win owner’s Telegram channel and the athlete’s own social media accounts. The announcement comes just ahead of Steveson’s next fight, recently confirmed for May 30, 2026, at the Real American Freestyle (RAF09) event.

    1Win Ambassador Image

    As part of his partnership with 1win, Steveson will have the opportunity to work more closely with his mentor, UFC legend and fellow 1win global ambassador Jon Jones. Jones has already started sharing his experience and holding personal training sessions with the wrestler, and he is also expected to accompany him to key fights. The first joint photos of Steveson and Jones were published on the Telegram channel of the 1win owner.

    Gable will also participate in 1win’s online and offline projects, marketing activations, and partner launches on social media. The 1win brand is also expected to be present at public events involving the athlete. Special emphasis will be placed on audience engagement on social media: posts, stories, short videos, and other formats for interacting with fans.

    In February 2026, Gable Steveson defeated Hugo Lezama in a Mexico Fight League bout, finishing the fight by technical knockout in the first round. The win marked his third consecutive victory. His next fight is now confirmed for May 30 at Real American Freestyle (RAF09), which will be exclusively streamed on Fox Nation.

    The agreement with Gable Steveson continues 1win’s strategy of partnering with high-profile and media-friendly world-class athletes. In particular, at the end of 2025, the company signed a partnership agreement with MMA champion Jon Jones. That same year, 1win also worked with Mexican boxer Canelo Álvarez.

  • 快樂蜂全球實力持續躍升  躋身全球餐飲品牌前五強

    快樂蜂全球實力持續躍升 躋身全球餐飲品牌前五強

    菲律賓馬尼拉 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026 年 4 月 3 日 – Jollibee 集團旗下旗艦品牌快樂蜂 (Jollibee),於 Brand Finance《Restaurants 25 2026》報告中獲評為全球餐飲品牌第五強,再次印證其全球競爭力的穩步提升,並持續在各地市場贏得廣泛共鳴與認同。

    Jollibee Global Rank

    該報告指出,快樂蜂在 2026 年的排名,較 2025 年的第九位大幅躍升,顯示其全球品牌資產明顯增強。品牌強度指數 (Brand Strength Index, BSI) 由去年的 83.9 分提升至87.9 分 (滿分100),是榜單上進步最顯著的餐飲品牌之一,反映該品牌在成熟及新興市場中,於知名度、偏好度及口碑推薦等方面均持續增長。

    於同一份報告指出,快樂蜂不僅是全球 25 個最具價值餐飲品牌中,唯一的菲律賓代表,亦是榜單上唯一來自菲律賓及東南亞的品牌。

    Jollibee 集團全球總裁兼行政總裁 Ernesto Tanmantiong 表示,這項殊榮進一步印證品牌在全球競爭力,以及品牌資產方面正穩步攀升。

    他表示:「能夠被 Brand Finance 評為全球最強勢餐飲品牌之一,正正說明快樂蜂憑藉出眾滋味,在各地市場贏得優勢,並在不同市場持續提升消費者偏好。這份成績反映我們多年建立的信任、團隊嚴謹執行力,以及品牌不斷壯大的力量,讓我們可以在全球各地為顧客帶來更多的歡樂體驗。」

    品牌實力按年提升,說明快樂蜂不僅持續擴展版圖,亦正加深其影響顧客選擇的能力,這是推動企業長期盈利質素、價格抗跌力及特許經營吸引力的重要驅動因素。品牌的進一步躍升,令快樂蜂在消費者好感度方面,得以與規模更大的國際品牌比肩,縮短差距。

    Brand Finance 指出,作為榜單中唯一來自菲律賓及東南亞的品牌,快樂蜂的表現,印證本地品牌只要執行有方,同樣可以在國際舞台上脫穎而出,同時維持強勁品牌資產及對未來盈利的市場預期。快樂蜂持續拓展亞洲、北美及中東市場,不僅進一步提升長遠增長前景,亦鞏固其於核心市場的領導地位。

    Tanmantiong 補充道:「我們會繼續專注建立可複製且具規模效益的營運系統,強化品牌根基,並在各地呈現始終如一的美味。透過有紀律的拓展策略,我們正推動旗下品牌實現可持續增長、提升全球競爭力,並為包括投資者及特許經營合作夥伴在內的持份者創造長遠價值。」

    快樂蜂在多個國際市場的知名度及口碑持續攀升,亦從近期獲得的多項獎項中可見一斑。在美國,該品牌獲《USA Today》評選為最佳快餐炸雞連鎖店之一,而飲食媒體《Eater》亦將其列為不容錯過的美食據點,特別推崇其經典 Chickenjoy 與鮮明的菲律賓風味。同時,快樂蜂亦在香港及新加坡等市場屢獲肯定,於科威特更被評為「十大最佳顧客服務品牌」之一,突顯品牌在不同市場均成功建立消費者偏好,並透過美味與愉悅服務,持續贏得各地顧客的支持。
