    NineSmart Smart Property 亮相香港寬頻企業方案活動

    以 AIoT 驅動物業管理智能化轉型

    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年4月23日 – NineSmart (玖創物聯網有限公司) 於 4月17日出席由香港寬頻企業方案主辦的「AI 引領物業營運:從策略到實踐」活動,與來自物業管理及科技等業界夥伴交流,探討 AI 與 IoT 如何協助物業營運,由傳統管理模式邁向真正智能化。是次活動聚焦於智能物業管理、保安營運、租戶體驗及系統整合等議題,透過專題分享及示範,展示 AIoT 如何推動物管由「被動監察」升級至「主動識別」與「預測管理」。

    專題分享:以「人」為中心的智能化轉型

    在專題分享環節中,NineSmart 業務發展總監黃浚昇 (Sing Wong) 指出,真正的智能化不應停留於設備自動化,而是要同時回應住戶、前線物管同事以及管理層或業主三方的實際需要。傳統物管往往把門禁、電梯、感應器及會所設施分散管理,即使加入自動化系統,系統之間仍未必互通,結果只是增加前線需要監察的後台數量。

    黃浚昇表示,「智能化真正的轉變應在於數據流動與系統的聯動性,令來自不同裝置的數據流向一個平台,方便管理層預測並提早處理潛在問題,將前線人手從瑣碎工作中釋放出來,投入更高價值的服務工作。」

    現場展示:Smart Property 智能物業管理方案

    除專題分享外,NineSmart 亦展示其產品 Smart Property 及其中一個功能模組 Smart Access 智能門禁,呈現如何以統一平台連接不同裝置,協助業界提升營運效率與服務體驗。NineSmart 以 IoT技術,透過整合式平台,令門禁不再只是單一功能,而是可與其他營運流程、通知機制及數據分析連接,提升整體系統操作效率與安全性。

    推動智能轉型及自動化,邁向無人化物業營運

    隨着 AIoT 技術成熟,物業營運正由人手巡查及事後處理,轉向預測性與自動化管理。更多重複工序將由系統自動處理,令前線可聚焦更高價值工作,推進物業營運邁向可持續的「無人化」營運模式。

    NineSmart 創辦人之一巫浚銘 (Lucas Mo) 表示,「物業管理的將來不只是自動化,而是以數據與 AIoT 驅動真正的智能轉型,讓住戶、前線與管理層在同一平台高效協同,令物管更準確掌握使用情況及服務需求,作出更前瞻的決策,同時提升營運效益及物業長遠資產價值。」

    與會者及業界代表回饋正面

    多位訪客及業界代表認為,NineSmart 的展示清楚呈現智能物業管理的實際落地能力,特別是在門禁、系統整合及營運自動化方面,具備清晰的應用場景與明確價值。亦有參觀者指出,是次展示成功結合「自動化」與「以人為本」的理念,將智能化由「硬件升級」推進至「營運思維」的轉變,正好呼應活動主題,從策略走到實踐,促進物業營運邁向更高層次的智能轉型。

  • Vaseline sets a new standard for creator collaboration

    Vaseline sets a new standard for creator collaboration

    Building on the Cannes Lions Titanium-winning Vaseline Verified, Vaseline and Ogilvy Singapore launch Vaseline Originals — a first-of-its-kind product line that transforms community hacks into products, putting content creators at the centre of innovation.

    SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 23 April 2026 – In a world where beauty trends are increasingly shaped by everyday creators, Vaseline is redefining its role from product maker to platform for its community. Rather than simply validating trends, the brand is now taking the next step by turning ideas from the community into real products and recognising the original voices who brought them to life.

    tmp_c22c8909-cab9-40f2-9320-8233214c79b9.png

    Introducing Vaseline Originals (OGs), a first-of-its-kind product line inspired by verified viral hacks and the voices behind them. Developed by Ogilvy Singapore for Unilever’s Vaseline, the campaign flips the script on how beauty products are made, turning real community ideas into actual products.

    “For years, creators have been reimagining what Vaseline jelly can do, often without recognition. This campaign is about giving credit where it’s due: acknowledging, celebrating and rewarding the people behind those ideas. More than a campaign, it signals how we want to build going forward with our community, not just for them,” said Nathalia Amadeu, Global Brand Director, Vaseline at Unilever.

    tmp_9503acec-7018-4f57-b029-db32f42d8f1d.jpeg


    From Hack to Shelf: Meet the Vaseline OGs

    At the heart of the campaign are two content creators who were among the early voices sharing hacks that helped shape the brand’s newest innovations.

    In 2008, beauty creator Jen Chae (@frmheadtotoe) shared a simple Vaseline brow tamer hack on her blog. Lauren Luke (@laurenluke_panacea81), one of YouTube’s earliest beauty creators, introduced her Vaseline primer hack, making beauty techniques more accessible to everyday users.

    Today, almost two decades later, their ideas have inspired actual Vaseline products. These include the Vaseline Brow Tamer, inspired by Jen Chae, and Vaseline All-In-One Primer & Highlighter Jelly, inspired by Lauren Luke. Beyond product innovation, the campaign recognises these content creators as Vaseline OGs and acknowledges their role in shaping ideas that have since become part of global beauty culture.

    Both products sold out within minutes during their TikTok Live debut on 30 March 2026, featuring both content creators.

    From Vaseline Verified to Vaseline Originals

    What began as individual beauty hacks has grown into a global movement, with more 3.5 million Vaseline hack-related posts shared online. This is a testament to the brand’s enduring role in everyday routines and conversations across generations.

    The campaign builds on Vaseline Verified, the brand’s award-winning effort that validated hacks shared by thousands and earned multiple Grand Prix awards, including the coveted Titanium Lion at Cannes Lions. Where Vaseline Verified proved what works, Vaseline Originals shines a spotlight on the people behind some of the most popular hacks.

    And this is just the beginning. The search for content creators behind other viral Vaseline hacks is ongoing. More individuals are set to be recognised and certified as Vaseline OGs, bringing more of the community into the brand’s future.

    Nicolas Courant, Chief Creative Officer at Ogilvy Singapore, said, “We started with a simple creative provocation: what if the best ideas were never in the boardroom, but already in people’s bedrooms and everyday routines? We traced how Vaseline was being used in culture back to its origins and found the OG creators who had been shaping these hacks long before they became mainstream. Vaseline Originals is a move from ownership to stewardship, honouring our OG content creators by sharing our success with them.”

    Aanchal Sethi, Asia Managing Director Unilever, Ogilvy Singapore said “Vaseline Originals represents a deliberate strategic shift in how we build this brand, moving from validating what the community creates to actively shaping and developing ideas inspired by them. The commercial signals have been unambiguous: products selling out in minutes, demand scaling with every drop. But what this campaign confirms goes beyond a single launch. It shows that community-led innovation isn’t just culturally resonant. It’s a growth engine. This is how Vaseline stays relevant for the next generation, and how we intend to keep building.”

  • Beyond the Carbon Blind Spot — Embodied Carbon and Scope 3 Emissions in the Commercial Property Sector on the Chinese Mainland

    Beyond the Carbon Blind Spot — Embodied Carbon and Scope 3 Emissions in the Commercial Property Sector on the Chinese Mainland

    HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 April 2026 – Cushman & Wakefield, a leading global real estate services firm, today released its annual Beyond the Carbon Blind Spot Embodied Carbon and Scope 3 Emissions in the Commercial Property Sector on the Chinese Mainland, a landmark report highlighting the growing importance of whole-life carbon in shaping the future of real estate investment, development, and asset performance.

    What is Embodied Carbon?Scope 1, 2 and 3 Emissions in Commercial Real EstateShanghai – The Average Green Grade A Office Rental Compared to the Average Non-Green Grade A Office Rental (Q4 2015-Q1 2026)Source: Cushman & Wakefield Research

    • What is Embodied Carbon?
    • Scope 1, 2 and 3 Emissions in Commercial Real Estate
    • Shanghai The Average Green Grade A Office Rental Compared to the Average Non-Green Grade A Office Rental (Q4 2015-Q1 2026)

    Source: Cushman & Wakefield Research

    The report finds that while operational energy efficiency has improved significantly across the sector, embodied carbon and Scope 3 emissions now represent the majority of total lifecycle emissions in many commercial buildings.

    A Shift to Whole-Life Carbon Thinking

    As building efficiency improves and electricity grids decarbonise, the relative importance of embodied carbon is increasing. The report highlights the “redevelopment paradox”: while new buildings are more energy efficient, demolition and reconstruction can generate such high upfront carbon that total lifecycle emissions may exceed those of retained and refurbished assets.

    This shift is particularly relevant in rapidly evolving urban markets such as Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou, where redevelopment cycles are frequent and asset repositioning is common.

    Scope 3 Becomes a Core Market Driver

    Scope 3 emissions – covering embodied carbon, tenant energy use, and supply chain activities – are now the largest emissions category for most real estate portfolios.

    The report shows that leased office space is increasingly a key Scope 3 exposure point for occupiers, especially multinational companies operating under global net-zero commitments. As a result, Scope 3 performance is now influencing:

    • Leasing decisions and tenant demand
    • Capital allocation and ESG investment screening
    • Access to green finance
    • Corporate disclosure and benchmarking frameworks

    Carbon as a Financial Factor

    Embodied carbon and Scope 3 emissions are no longer just sustainability metrics – they are collectively a financially material driver of asset value. The report demonstrates that differences in whole-life carbon performance can create meaningful divergence in asset outcomes through:

    • Rental performance and occupancy resilience
    • Operating costs and capital expenditure requirements
    • Exit yields and investor demand

    A comparative analysis shows that carbon performance alone can drive a value differential of approximately 37% between otherwise identical assets.

    From Risk to Opportunity

    While regulatory frameworks continue to evolve, global capital and leading occupiers are already embedding whole-life carbon considerations into decision-making. The report highlights a clear opportunity for market participants who act early through:

    • Adaptive reuse and retrofit-first strategies
    • Low-carbon materials and construction innovation
    • Supply chain engagement and procurement reform
    • Green leasing and tenant collaboration
    • Improved carbon data and governance frameworks

    Beyond the Carbon Blind Spot concludes that the Chinese mainland commercial real estate sector is entering a decisive new phase where whole-life carbon performance is becoming central to competitiveness, asset value, and investment strategy. Stakeholders who integrate embodied carbon and Scope 3 considerations into core decision-making today will be best positioned to enhance resilience, unlock capital, and deliver long-term value in a rapidly evolving market.

    Alton Wong, Executive Director, Head of Sustainability Advisory Services, Head of Advisory Services, Valuation and Advisory Services, Greater China, said, “Embodied carbon and Scope 3 emissions are now firmly at the centre of the decarbonisation agenda for commercial real estate. As operational performance improves, the industry is being forced to confront the much larger, and more complex, emissions embedded across the full asset lifecycle. This is driving a fundamental shift in how buildings are designed, constructed and managed, with increasing emphasis on material choices, retrofit strategies, and supply chain engagement. What was once considered a technical sustainability issue is now a core strategic priority for investors and occupiers alike.”

    Shaun Brodie, Head of Research Content, Greater China, said, “Our research shows that carbon is rapidly becoming a defining factor in commercial real estate performance on the Chinese mainland. The transition to whole-life carbon thinking is not just about reducing emissions – it is about understanding how sustainability directly impacts asset value, leasing dynamics, and investment outcomes. As occupiers and capital providers place greater weight on embodied carbon and Scope 3 emissions, assets that fail to adapt risk accelerated obsolescence, while those that lead on carbon performance stand to capture a clear competitive advantage.”

  • From Coal Mining to Agriculture: An Ecological Initiative at a Chinese Coal Mine

    From Coal Mining to Agriculture: An Ecological Initiative at a Chinese Coal Mine

    ORDOS, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 April 2026 – On April 20, 2026, a new batch of watermelon seedlings was transplanted in the greenhouses within the reclamation area of Minda Coal Mine, located in Dongsheng District, Ordos, Inner Mongolia. This open-pit coal mine has an annual production capacity of 8 million tons.

    In late spring, workers in the coal mine reclamation greenhouses actively plant seedlings to make the most of the farming season.
    In late spring, workers in the coal mine reclamation greenhouses actively plant seedlings to make the most of the farming season.

    This scene is not from a typical ecological farm’s spring planting but represents a significant transformation taking place within a traditional coal enterprise.

    Minda Coal Mine is the largest open-pit mine in Dongsheng District, producing up to 8 million tons of coal annually. Just a few hundred meters away, mining operations continue as usual; meanwhile, on the other side, 300 greenhouses flourish all year round, and the livestock area produces 6,000 pigs, 2,000 heads of cattle, 4,000 sheep, and 10,000 chickens annually.

    This transformation began in 2018. Initially, the goal was simple: to provide mine workers with safe, locally produced vegetables and meat. Seven years later, this integrated “planting and breeding circular chain” has achieved tangible economic results. In 2025, the agricultural output value reached 12 million yuan, benefiting 150 farming households in Tongchuan Town, with each household seeing an average annual income increase of 30,000 yuan. The ecological supermarket in Toudao Lane, Dongsheng District, which opened just five months ago, now serves approximately 300 customers daily, with daily sales exceeding 10,000 yuan.

    The challenges here extend beyond deciding what to plant.

    Situated on the Ordos Plateau, Minda Coal Mine experiences less than 400 millimeters of annual rainfall, with drought occurring nine years out of ten. The reclamation area initially consisted largely of stripped rock and soil, with organic matter content as low as 0.2%. To address this, the mine invested 150 million yuan to construct 11 water storage ponds that collect rainwater from slopes, roads, and rooftops, creating a “rainwater bank” with a total capacity of 5,000 cubic meters, achieving 100% utilization of collected rainwater. Soil quality was enhanced through screening, backfilling, and the application of biological fertilizers, increasing the organic matter content across 14,000 mu of reclaimed land from 0.2% to 1.5%.

    In the reclamation area, rows of chicken coops are neatly arranged, with tens of thousands of free-range ecological chickens roaming freely.
    In the reclamation area, rows of chicken coops are neatly arranged, with tens of thousands of free-range ecological chickens roaming freely.

    “Coal will eventually run out, but the land must be preserved for future generations.” A statement from the head of Minda Coal Mine highlights a long-term challenge faced by resource-dependent regions.

    Currently, Dongsheng District has achieved an 87% green mine certification rate, completed reclamation greening of 820 hectares, and manages 1,525 hectares of goaf areas. New industries such as sea buckthorn cultivation, photovoltaics, agriculture, and animal husbandry have been established in the reclamation area. Where coal mining once accounted for 90% of income, ecological agriculture now contributes 18%, with projections of an increase to 35% by 2027. Plans are underway for slaughterhouses, food processing plants, feed factories, fertilizer plants, and breeding bases.

    From coal mining to farming, from the “rainwater bank” to supermarket shelves, the spring of 2026 at Minda Coal Mine offers a promising answer to a common question in China’s resource-based regions: after underground resources are depleted, how can above-ground advantages be sustainably leveraged?

  • TAT unveils the inspiration behind “feel all the feelings,” showcasing “LISA’s” attire and local artisanal products intertwining Thai heritage and culture within every scene

    TAT unveils the inspiration behind “feel all the feelings,” showcasing “LISA’s” attire and local artisanal products intertwining Thai heritage and culture within every scene

    BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 April 2026 – The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has unveiled the official behind-the-scenes VDO of its latest TVC, feel all the feelings,” featuring Lalisa “LISA” Manobal as the Amazing Thailand Ambassador. The campaign aims to comprehensively convey the charm and emotional depth of Thai tourism. In addition to the inherent beauty of various tourist destinations, it also features meticulously curated “fashion and locally-made handicrafts.” These elements enrich the narrative by profoundly reflecting Thai identity, way of life, and cultural aesthetics.

    TAT - feel all the feelings - BTS01

    Transcending mere apparel or accessories, the fashion showcased in this TVC serves as a platform where fashion intricately interweaves emotions, sentiments, and the beauty of Thai culture. Through a seamless blend of contemporary design and traditional Thai heritage, attires and accessories worn by “LISA”—crafted by Thai designers and brands—present the charm of stylish, modern Thai fashion into the spotlight.

    Epitomising simplicity and Harmony with the surrounding vistas through a White Ensemble from Muscovy Studio

    Defined by its graceful lines and fluid silhouette, the look evokes a sense of seamless integration with the landscape, poised for new horizons in travel. Muscovy Studio has re-envisioned traditional “Thai wickerwork”, incorporating its structural essence into the sleeves and shoulders to create a modern, commanding, and charming aesthetic. The addition of tie-dye detailing at the hem introduces a sense of motion, while the ensemble’s versatile design allows it to transition from a functional mini-dress to a sophisticated mermaid-cut gown. This layered approach, combined with a palette of white and warm undertones, offers a fresh perspective on contemporary Thai fashion.

    Radiating An Eternal Brilliance with A Golden Gown from UNKUNIYA
    This masterpiece of craftsmanship features a palette of gold woven with exquisite precision, highlighting graceful, intricate curves. The upper bodice is designed with an elegant bateau neckline, adorned with meticulously layered sequins that shimmer with every movement. This is perfectly complemented by a fluid, sweeping skirt that drapes with effortless elegance. The result is a look of profound luxury and enchantment, designed to radiate with a captivating, multi-dimensional glow even in the softest candlelight.

    Presenting a new dimension of Thai attire with an ASAVA Golden Silk Strapless Ensemble
    This is a reimagination of traditional textile charms through a contemporary lens. ASAVA masterfully integrates international fashion structures with Thai silk, featuring a bodice meticulously crafted with corset-inspired tailoring that reflects the precision of Western haute couture. The lower half is defined by a striking balloon skirt, which provides sophisticated volume and depth, while a layered golden cape adds a final touch of luxury and fluid elegance.

    Translating Thai Wickerwork into Contemporary Fashion, resonating with Creative Energy, through A Cream Ensemble by VASSANA
    This ensemble elegantly reflects the refinement of Thai wisdom and craftsmanship through intricate three-dimensional detailing on both the bodice and skirt. By reinterpreting ‘wickerwork’—a precious local handicraft—through a contemporary lens, the design creatively transforms bamboo into a sophisticated fashion statement. The upper bodice features a strapless design crafted from ‘Tok’ (bamboo strips), traditionally used for weaving farmers’ hats, which are meticulously tailored and arranged. Meanwhile, the skirt incorporates bamboo fibres woven into a minimalist yet striking pattern, adding depth and a modern identity to the look. The entire ensemble harmoniously weaves together artistic value and cultural narrative, while the natural bamboo-inspired palette further accentuates the charm of Thai wickerwork. The ensemble is completed with a ‘Khanom Jeeb’ (pleated dumpling) style wicker bag, inspired by traditional ‘Uba’ floral tassels, offering an elegant and stylish take on applied Thai heritage.

    LISA’s fashion looks are elevated to perfection by glowing golden accessories from SARRAN
    These pieces convey the vibrancy and vitality of nature, inspired by the beauty of Thai flora, specifically a symbol of faith like ‘Dok Rak’ (Crown Flower). The collection reflects a narrative of a journey that brings Thai beauty, culture, and identity to the global stage. Inspired by the historic voyages of Thai ambassadors during the Ayutthaya period—an era when Siamese representatives crossed oceans to forge international alliances—the collection translates the Thai spirit into wearable art. By reinterpreting traditional ‘Phuang Malai’ (garlands) and ‘Uba’, it seamlessly bridges Thai cultural heritage with a contemporary global context.”

    In addition to the fashion, eye-catching items featured in the TVC, though simple, possessed rich narratives, and were well-sourced from Thai communities. They were meticulously selected to establish an authentic atmosphere as well as to vividly reflect the local way of life and identity. These items include:

    Palm Leaf Fans: Handicraft Heritage from Buriram Province – A Breeze of Simplicity that Evokes Emotion
    Traditional handheld fans, still in use in many homes, are considered staples. They symbolise calmness, gentleness, and an unhurried pace of life. The “Phat Bai Tan” (Palm Leaf Fans) from Ban Non Ma-Nga, Sakae Sub-District, Satuek District, Buriram Province is an ancient Thai folk wisdom heritage passed down through generations. These hand fans are crafted locally from “Bai Tan” (Palmyra Palm leaves) and they are distinguished by their unique, striking colour schemes achieved through a meticulous arrangement of young and mature leaves. These ‘Phat Bai Tan” evidently demonstrate Thai artisanal skills at every stage, from material selection and sorting, product shape development, to the creation of diverse patterns to elevate both product values and local wisdom. Praised as a cherished household item for many to this day, a Palm leaf fan is known to be a widely accessible and highly affordable Thai handicraft which possesses exquisite and beautiful details.

    Chang Moi Rattan Chairs and Basketry Crafts, Chiang Mai Province – The Allure of Thai Artisanship
    Concurrently, wicker chairs epitomise the comfort and warmth characteristic of Thai homes. They are considered among the foremost handcrafted furniture pieces, frequently employed as primary decorative items in both residential settings and cafes, thereby imparting a relaxing and warm ambience to interior spaces. Specifically, “Chang Moi Rattan Chairs” represent a distinctive local handicraft from Chiang Mai province. These chairs, with their innovative forms, are a distinctive integration of natural “Honey Rattan” and unique techniques of skilled artisans. A diverse range of designs is available spanning from traditional artistry to modern styles that cater to contemporary preferences. They reveal an inherent charm of simplicity, classic appeal, and natural beauty, coupled with durability and practicality. Furthermore, they reflect the intrinsic value of natural materials and the long-inherited artistry of Thai communities.

    Pakakayo Shoulder Bag, A Local Wisdom from Mae Hong Son Province – Ethnic Identity in Textile Handicrafts
    The hand-woven shoulder bags of the Pakakayo community are distinguished by their “traditional weaving techniques,” which represent the inherited wisdom and culture of the tribe, passed down through generations. Each textile piece embodies the community’s spirit, merging with nature through the creation of patterns and colours that not only add visual depth to the scene but also harmoniously narrate the profound connection between people and the land. This encompasses natural dyeing, weaving, and the meticulous creation of patterns using unique techniques, all performed by the villagers’ own hands. The continuation of the Pakakayo people’s weaving wisdom has also been extended to contemporary fashion products, perfectly catering to the lifestyles of the younger generation. For both Thai and international visitors, these Pakakayo shoulder bags are not merely handicraft items available for purchase, but they also offer a travel experience rich in cultural narratives, an opportunity to learn about community life, and to immerse oneself in the beauty of textiles that truly convey the tribe’s history and identity.

    Rooster Bowl, a Renowned Product of Lampang Province – A Return to Memories on the Thai Dining Table
    Just mentioning the Rooster Bowl, it evokes images of steaming hot rice. The “Rooster Bowl” has been a symbol of Thai households for over a century and it is also a significant historical evidence of Chinese porcelain. Furthermore, it has been registered as a Geographical Indication (GI) in Thailand, owing to the exceptionally suitable properties of Lampang’s white clay for ceramic production. These ceramic bowls possess distinctive quality and patterns, typically hand-painted with a chicken alongside peonies and banana trees. In Chinese culture, the “chicken” symbolises diligence and abundance. Despite the closure of numerous Rooster Bowl factories and a growing preference among younger generations for alternative tableware, a passionate group remains dedicated to the preservation of the Lampang Rooster Bowl, having established the Lampang Ceramic Association to safeguard this cultural heritage. For both Thai and international visitors, the “Rooster Bowl” is not just a rare collectible item, but it also offers a cultural journey experience, allowing one to appreciate the beauty of porcelain, learn about traditional craftsmanship, and immerse oneself in the perfectly integrated Thai-Chinese cultural heritage and local way of life.

    Bo Sang Umbrella, San Kamphaeng District, Chiang Mai Province – The Vibrant Artistry of Lanna Handicrafts
    The “Bo Sang Umbrella,” a handmade umbrella made by Saa paper, has become a global icon from San Kamphaeng District of Chiang Mai province. For more than a century, the district has been known as the world-renowned origin and production hub for Saa paper umbrellas. The legendary and distinctive manufacturing process also represents Thai wisdom passed down through many generations. Characterised by its distinctive, vibrant, and beautiful Lanna art patterns, combined with thorough attention to every detail, the “Bo Sang Umbrella” transcends its function as a sunshade or rain protector; it is a living work of art that vividly reflects the spirit of the Northern Thai people. The essence of the “Bo Sang Umbrella” lies in its delicate production process, from the selection of high-quality natural materials such as Saa paper, to its assembly with precisely carved and shaped bamboo frames. Three distinct types are available: Saa paper umbrellas, silk umbrellas, and cotton umbrellas. Presently, this classic beauty continues to serve as a notable inspiration for new artists and designers who adapt it into contemporary works that seamlessly integrate with modern lifestyles. Beyond its artistic aesthetic value and practical utility, the “Bo Sang Umbrella” is an integral component of the community’s culture and economy, having provided livelihoods and income for local residents for decades. The craftsmanship is also celebrated annually through the “Bo Sang Umbrella and San Kamphaeng Handicrafts Festival,” held every January, which attracts both Thai and international visitors to observe the traditional production process, purchase umbrellas as souvenirs, and experience the charm of this vibrant handicraft village.

    The TVC “feel all the feelings is therefore not merely an invitation to embark on a journey through Thailand to encounter a myriad of experiences and emotions waiting to be discovered by visitors, but it also presents an opportunity for Thais to experience and appreciate the inherent value of everyday objects and community items that reflect the foundation of Thai identity as perceived through the eyes of Lalisa “LISA” Manobal, the Amazing Thailand Ambassador.

  • 旅遊保險投訴飆升33% 10Life拆解六大拒賠陷阱:買錯保險隨時白買

    旅遊保險投訴飆升33% 10Life拆解六大拒賠陷阱:買錯保險隨時白買

    香港 – Media OutReach Newswire – 2026年4月22日 – 保險投訴局最新公布,2025年度共接獲857宗旅遊及醫療保險投訴個案,按年上升約32.7%。與此同時,近日港人赴菲律賓遊學染病索償遭拒一事相繼曝光,加上國泰及香港快運因燃油附加費而削減航班,引發市民關注旅遊保險的保障及條款。

    投訴數字背後,反映的是一個深層次問題:消費者以為旅遊保險簡單,不用深究,出事才發現條款中存在大量灰色地帶。10Life深入分析六大常見拒賠陷阱,協助市民在出發前真正了解自己買的是什麼。

    投訴上升反映保障與客戶預期存在落差

    保險投訴局在已審結的447宗個案中,有124名投訴人最終獲賠,涉及總賠償金額約1,360萬元。隨著異地出行模式轉變,混合式旅遊(如遊學、工作假期)日益普遍,與純旅遊保單之間出現落差,增加拒賠風險。

    10Life深度分析:六大旅遊保險拒賠陷阱

    陷阱一:一般旅遊保險不保遊學、工作假期

    大部分旅遊保險均以「純消閒旅遊或公幹」作為保障前提。遊學、義工服務、工作假期等為目的行程通常不受保。保險公司一般按整體行程的「主要目的」判斷,即使持旅遊簽證、行程中包含大量休閒活動,若主要安排被視為學習,索償仍可能遭拒。

    10Life建議: 遊學或工作假期需購買專門保險,例如「海外留學保險」或「工作假期保險」,切勿以為一般旅遊保險已足夠。投保前可主動向保公司書面確認行程性質是否符合保障定義。

    陷阱二:如航班取消屬「商業決定」,保險公司一概不賠

    旅遊保險的「行程取消」及「航班延誤」保障,一般只適用於惡劣天氣、天災或機械故障等不可抗力因素。如航空公司因油價或營運因素削減航班,屬商業決定,不在保障範圍之內。

    10Life建議: 遇上航班削減,先向航空公司查詢退款及免費更改安排;訂機票時可選擇彈性票種,方便日後行程更改。

    陷阱三:航班延誤條款差異大,隨時影響索償

    「航班延誤」看似簡單易明,但10Life分析市面多份主要旅遊保險保單後發現,不同保險公司的計算方式存在差異,直接影響能否成功索償:

    保險公司 延誤觸發條件 最低延誤時數
    QBE
    單次旅遊保險
    只計出發延誤 6小時
    Generali
    忠意旅遊保
    出發及抵達延誤 6小時
    Blue Cross
    藍十字智在遊
    出發及抵達延誤 5小時
    MSIG
    iTravel Go 單次旅遊保險
    出發及抵達延誤 5小時
    Prudential
    保誠精選「旅遊樂」
    出發及抵達延誤 5小時
    AXA
    「卓越」豐盛優遊樂
    出發或抵達延誤 6小時

    如上所述,QBE只計算「出發延誤」,若航班準時起飛後途中受阻,一般不符合索償資格;而Blue Cross、MSIG及Prudential的最低觸發時數為5小時,低於業界常見的6小時。此外,大部分保單規定,涉及接駁航班時,各段延誤時間不可累積計算。航班延誤亦需由指定原因引致(如惡劣天氣、罷工等),方可觸發保障。

    10Life建議: 投保前核實延誤計算方式,尤其涉及多段航班或轉機的行程,務必了解各段延誤能否獨立觸發索償。

    陷阱四:醫療費用須先索償醫保,旅遊保或只賠不足之數

    不少消費者以為,只要購買旅遊保險,旅途中一旦生病住院就可以直接索償。但其實,部分旅遊保單設有「賠償協調條款」,規定投保人需先向其他醫療保險(如公司醫保或自願醫保)索償,旅遊保險只會補償未獲賠償的部分。

    例如,旅途中被蚊叮感染登革熱需要住院,即使已投保旅遊保險,亦需先向自身的醫療保險索償,剩餘未獲賠償的醫療費用,才可由旅遊保險補貼。這不但令索償流程更為繁複,亦有機會因未有掌握條款或程序,而錯過索償時限。

    10Life 建議: 投保前應仔細閱讀保單條款,了解是否設有賠償協調安排;如同時持有其他醫療保險,建議預先向相關保險公司查詢索償程序及先後次序,以免影響最終賠償。

    陷阱五:高風險活動與業餘運動 受傷索償隨時碰壁
    一般旅遊保險一般將「高風險活動」列為除外責任,常見除外活動包括:極限運動(跳傘、高空彈跳、攀岩)、冬季運動(滑雪或需另購附加保障)、水上活動(水肺潛水需持牌)、電動滑板車或平衡車、以及競技運動(馬拉松需另購專項保險)。

    另一個容易忽略的灰色地帶,是「業餘」與「職業」的界定。若旅客以任何形式收取報酬——包括獎金、贊助費或代言費——保險公司即可能將相關活動視為職業性質而拒賠。

    10Life建議: 行程涉及任何運動或體力活動,投保前應核實標準保單是否涵蓋,並查詢是否需要購買附加保障。

    陷阱六:戰爭與騷亂 保障範圍比想像中複雜

    旅遊保險普遍將戰爭直接或間接引致的損失列為除外。然而,10Life翻查市面主要保單發現,發現部分產品設有「notwithstanding」的保單條款,在特定情況下會「覆蓋」原本的戰爭排除條款,而關鍵就在於「時間點」,即紅色/黑色外遊警示何時發出。

    若港府於出發前7天內或出發後才發出紅色或黑色外遊警示,部分保單的特別條款會令戰爭相關損失仍有機會獲賠。換言之,如果你出發時目的地仍屬安全(未有紅/黑色警示),但旅程中突然爆發戰爭或騷亂,你可能仍受保障。

    另外,兩個必須知道的細節位:

    • 「已知風險」不受保
      如果外遊警示在你投保前或訂立行程前已經發出,保險公司會視之為「已知風險」,相關損失一律不予賠償。切勿在警示發出後才急於投保,期望藉此獲得保障。
    • 非戰爭相關事故仍可索償
      即使身處戰亂地區,如果在當地突發疾病或需要住院,只要能證明事故與戰爭無直接關係(例如食物中毒、意外跌傷),相關醫療費用仍有機會索償。
    10Life建議:前往政治局勢不穩定地區,投保前必須看清條款及外遊警示(OTA)級別,切勿靠估。確定行程後盡快投保,並截圖保存投保當日的警示級別,作為日後索償的重要佐證。如對保障範圍有任何疑問,應主動向保險公司書面查詢。

    不要只看保費高低 條款細節同樣關鍵

    不少消費者投保時只著重保費高低,忽略保障範圍定義、不保事項及附加條款等關鍵細節,令出事時面臨保障落差的風險大增。

    市面上不同計劃的保障差距相當懸殊,保費相近的產品,實際保障內容可以差天共地,同時,保費高低與保障水平亦未必成正比。有時候,即使保費不高,保障亦可以相當不錯,大家出發前不妨多花幾分鐘比較保障。10Life平台現收錄逾70款香港旅遊保險計劃,市民可按目的地、行程性質及活動類型進行比較,選擇最切合自身需要的保障方案。

  • Dell Technologies Highlights AI PCs and Workstations as the Next Phase of Enterprise AI in Asia Pacific

    Dell Technologies Highlights AI PCs and Workstations as the Next Phase of Enterprise AI in Asia Pacific

    The AI Compute Continuum: from intelligent endpoints to advanced AI workloads

    SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 April 2026 – Dell Technologies (NYSE: DELL) today outlined how enterprise AI adoption across Asia Pacific (APAC) is moving from experimentation to implementation, with 48% of organisations with more than 500 employees in the region already deploying AI PCs and 95% expecting workstations to play a critical or important role in AI initiatives over the next two years. Together, these trends point to a more distributed AI environment – one that brings intelligence closer to users while supporting increasingly complex and compute-intensive workloads.

    Two IDC InfoBriefs, commissioned by Dell Technologies and Intel reinforce this shift – Future-Ready Workforce: The Strategic Case for AI PC Adoption and Powering Future-Ready Computing with Workstations: Built for AI. Built for You. The research highlights growing enterprise momentum behind both intelligent endpoints and higher-performance systems as organisations shape the next phase of AI adoption.

    For Dell, this shift reflects a broader industry trend toward aligning the right compute resources with specific workload requirements, as organisations balance intelligent endpoints for everyday productivity with high-performance systems designed for advanced AI and professional use cases. Enterprise AI deployments are increasingly spanning client devices, edge environments and the data centre, reflecting a more distributed approach across the IT environment.

    AI PCs: Bringing intelligence closer to everyday work

    AI PCs are becoming a core component of the modern workplace, enabling AI workloads to run directly on the device to deliver faster, more responsive user experiences while reducing reliance on continuous cloud connectivity. This approach also supports enhanced data privacy and security, provides IT teams with greater control over deployment and management across device fleets, and enables more consistent scaling of AI capabilities across the workforce.

    The IDC research commissioned by Dell Technologies and Intel underscores this momentum. As AI becomes embedded in day-to-day work, device strategy is shifting accordingly. 89% of APAC organisations now consider AI capabilities a very important factor in future PC purchasing decisions.

    In Singapore, 54% of organisations have already deployed AI PCs – 12% higher than the regional average – highlighting strong early adoption momentum. Southeast Asia’s AI PC adoption is outpacing the regional average by 6%, driven by the ability to adopt new technologies without legacy constraints, strong infrastructure in markets like Singapore, favourable market conditions and supportive government initiatives.

    APAC Organisations with over 50% AI PCs in their fleet report saving 2.17 hours per employee per day, a 30% productivity increase compared to using AI on traditional PCs. AI PCs are enabling a new class of enterprise use cases – from real-time collaboration and report generation to natural language search and content creation – delivering tangible productivity gains.

    In practical terms, this can translate into faster proposal turnaround for sales teams, quicker analysis cycles for finance and operations, streamlined drafting for HR, faster document review for engineering teams, and more responsive support for customer-facing employees. As organisations prepare for more autonomous and agentic AI in hybrid work environments, AI PCs are increasingly becoming the governed way to scale intelligent experiences across the workforce – safely, consistently, and with clearer business impact.

    Four out of five APAC organisations expect AI PCs to drive adoption of agentic AI, with the same proportion agreeing they enhance control and security for these applications. The broader momentum is clear: within APAC, 84% of organisations expect AI PCs to increase employee productivity, while 78% cite security benefits and 77% highlight cost advantages of running AI locally.

    This shift is leading to a tangible investment. Across APAC, 65% of organisations are willing to pay a premium of 10% or more for AI PCs, reflecting their role as core infrastructure for enterprise AI.

    Workstations: Powering advanced AI and specialised workloads

    While AI PCs distribute intelligence across the workforce, workstations continue to serve as the performance backbone for more demanding workloads – particularly as organisations shift more AI development on-premise. Developers, engineers, designers, and data teams rely on workstation-class systems for AI model development, simulation, rendering, data preparation, and other compute-intensive activities that require reliability, low latency, and sustained performance.

    The IDC research on workstations reflects this reality. 95% of organisations across APAC expect workstations to play a critical or important role in AI initiatives over the next two years, while 50% would choose a workstation as their preferred device for AI development, and 97% of organisations agree workstations are high-performance devices that fuel innovation for the organisation by empowering teams to explore cutting-edge technology like AI and Machine Learning models.

    Across Southeast Asia, 92% of organisations surveyed reported higher productivity among workstation users, while 52% expect the share of workstations in their fleet to grow over the next five years. Organisations in this part of the region also reported workstation use for data preparation (66%), model fine-tuning (62%), and foundational model training (55%), underscoring the role of high-performance systems in advanced AI and professional workloads.

    Use cases vary by sector – from engineering and architecture workflows in manufacturing, to content rendering in media, software development in technology, and risk modelling in financial services. AI has become the top technical computing use case for workstations, supporting the full lifecycle from data preparation (62%) and model training (60%) to fine-tuning (59%), deployment (44%) and inference (29%).

    This also shifts the conversation from upfront device price to total cost of ownership – including lifecycle longevity, scalability, performance consistency, and risk reduction. As AI initiatives move closer to production, workstations are increasingly seen as long-term platforms that can scale with evolving workloads, rather than short-term tools for experimentation.

    Toward an AI compute continuum that supports the next phase of enterprise AI

    Together, AI PCs and workstations form an AI compute continuum, supporting everything from everyday productivity to advanced AI development and professional workloads across the enterprise.

    For organisations across Asia Pacific, the next phase of AI will not be defined by a single environment or device category, but by the ability to place the right workload on the right compute. AI PCs are extending AI into everyday workflows, while workstations are helping organisations industrialise more advanced, compute-intensive, and specialised AI use cases. Combined, they give leaders a more practical foundation for scaling AI with greater speed, control, and long-term value.

    Perspectives:

    “AI is changing where work happens and where intelligence needs to live,” said Jacinta Quah, vice president, client solutions group, Asia Pacific, Japan and Greater China (APJC), Dell Technologies. “AI PCs and workstations are not simply device categories in a refresh cycle – they are foundational platforms built for the next phase of enterprise AI era. AI PCs bring intelligence to everyday workflows, at the fingertips of employees where data is generated. Meanwhile, workstations provide the performance and control needed for more specialised, compute-intensive workloads. Together, they enable organisations to scale AI more effectively, strengthen security and privacy, and drive meaningful business outcomes.”

    “AI is placing new demands on compute, requiring both local intelligence and high-performance processing to work seamlessly together,” said Jack Huang, regional sales director, PC client commercial and channel, Asia Pacific and Japan, Intel. “As AI workloads become more diverse, organisations need silicon innovations and platforms that can support both efficient on-device experiences and more demanding workstation use cases. Together with Dell, we are helping to enable the next phase of enterprise AI with technologies built for responsiveness, efficiency and scale.”

    “The speed at which AI models are being compressed to run on-device has been remarkably fast,” said Bryan Ma, vice president, client devices, IDC. “In the next year or two, very robust models will run on PCs that far exceed today’s capabilities. At the same time, organisations continue to depend on high-performance workstations for advanced AI development and specialised workloads, reinforcing a more distributed AI environment across the enterprise.”

    Research Methodology:
    The findings are based on two IDC InfoBriefs:

    • IDC InfoBrief, sponsored by Dell Technologies and Intel, Future-ready Workforce: The Strategic Case for AI PC Adoption, Doc. #AP242547IB, January 2026
    • IDC InfoBrief, sponsored by Dell Technologies and Intel, Powering Future-Ready Computing with Workstations: Built for AI. Built for You, Doc. #AP242550IB, February 2026

    Future-ready Workforce: The Strategic Case for AI PC Adoption is based on a survey of 720 IT and business decision-makers across Asia Pacific organisations with more than 500 employees. Powering Future-Ready Computing with Workstations: Built for AI. Built for You surveyed 960 IT and business decision-makers in the region to assess workstation adoption, usage, and their role in enterprise AI strategies.

  • Students take climate action into their own hands at NLCS (Singapore)’s Earth Week

    Students take climate action into their own hands at NLCS (Singapore)’s Earth Week

    Earth Week brings together students and sustainability practitioners through 26 workshops; culminates in a Service and Sustainability Summit to explore how early action can shape a more sustainable future

    SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 April 2026 – Climate change increasingly calls for shifts in behaviour and collective responsibility, and education is taking on a more central role in shaping how individuals understand and respond to environmental challenges from a young age.

    At North London Collegiate School (NLCS) (Singapore), this conversation comes to life through its annual Earth Week, where students, educators and sustainability practitioners come together to explore how knowledge and community engagement can contribute to meaningful environmental and social impact.

    Held from 20 April to 24 April 2026, the week-long programme culminates in the Service and Sustainability Summit, a platform designed to connect students with real-world perspectives on climate action. It brings together members of the school community alongside environmental organisations and advocates, such as Waterways Watch Society of Singapore, Plastify, and SPCA Singapore, creating space for dialogue, reflection and practical learning.

    Two of Malaysia’s beloved and renowned artists, Lee Oscar and Celine Tan from CO2–Karbondioxida, will lead a keynote presentation as well as a hands-on workshop where students will be able to create the Singapore skyline using fabrics from pre-loved clothing. It becomes a meaningful way to weave in the stories of the clothing items to channel their creativity sustainably.

    The Earth Week initiatives reflect a growing recognition that sustainability education must extend beyond awareness. As environmental issues become more complex and immediate, there is increasing emphasis on equipping students not only with knowledge, but also with the ability to make informed decisions and take responsibility for their actions.

    During the summit, students will be able to choose from 26 workshops spanning waste management, water sustainability, circular systems and environmental stewardship, with sessions led by external partners, teachers, Senior School students and members of the parent community. Topics range from Singapore’s water journey and plastic recycling systems to composting, urban farming and e-waste, with many workshops designed to be hands-on. Beyond this, students are also leading their own initiatives, with the school’s sustainability society, Greenwave, driving projects from renewable energy awareness to supporting local environmental and animal welfare organisations, reflecting a growing sense of ownership over the issues they study.

    “Schools have always been places where knowledge is built, but increasingly, they must also be where values are formed and tested. Sustainability is not something students will only encounter in the future, it is already shaping the world they are growing into. Our role is to give them the space to engage with these issues early, to think critically, and to understand that their actions, however small, carry weight,” said Sophie Davies, Vice Principal, Safeguarding and Inclusion, NLCS (Singapore).

    The Service and Sustainability Summit serves as the focal point of the week, featuring keynote sharing sessions, discussions and student-led engagements that encourage participants to reflect on the role individuals and communities play in shaping a more sustainable future.

    “For many students, environmental issues can feel distant or overwhelming. What programmes like Earth Week and the summit aim to do is make these challenges more tangible and relatable, while ensuring that every student feels they have a role to play. It is also about inclusion, creating an environment where different perspectives are valued, and where students can build confidence in contributing to conversations that affect their communities and their future,” said Agathe Avila, Environment and Sustainability coordinator, NLCS (Singapore).

    As Singapore continues to advance its sustainability agenda, initiatives such as Earth Week highlight the role that schools can play in nurturing a sense of responsibility and long-term thinking from an early age. Grounding learning in real-world contexts and encouraging active participation reflects a broader approach to education, one that prepares students not only academically, but as informed and engaged members of society.

    The week concludes with a reminder that meaningful progress on environmental issues will depend not only on systems and policies, but also on individuals who are prepared to act with awareness and intent.

  • Hiệu đính và Thay thế: Huawei Cloud ra mắt dịch vụ cho thuê Token tại khu vực châu Á Thái Bình Dương

    Hiệu đính và Thay thế: Huawei Cloud ra mắt dịch vụ cho thuê Token tại khu vực châu Á Thái Bình Dương

    JAKARTA, INDONESIA – Media OutReach Newswire – Ngày 22 tháng 4 năm 2026 – Sự kiện Huawei Cloud AI Boost Day (Ngày Thúc đẩy Trí tuệ nhân tạo trên nền tảng Đám mây của Huawei), với chủ đề “Agentic AI Practice” (“Thực hành trí tuệ nhân tạo tác nhân”) đã được tổ chức thành công tại Jakarta. Tại sự kiện, Huawei Cloud chính thức công bố ra mắt dịch vụ MaaS tại khu vực châu Á – Thái Bình Dương.

    Huawei Cloud Introduces Token Service in Asia Pacific

    Sau khi triển khai Dịch vụ Điện toán AI tại Hong Kong (Trung Quốc), Thái Lan, Indonesia và Singapore vào năm 2025, Huawei Cloud MaaS (Model-as-a-Service – mô hình dưới dạng dịch vụ) hiện đã sẵn sàng phục vụ, tận dụng công nghệ tăng tốc nội bộ của Huawei để hỗ trợ các mô hình phổ biến và cung cấp cho khách hàng các dịch vụ cho thuê token ổn định và chất lượng cao.

    Huawei Cloud tiếp tục tăng cường hợp tác với các mô hình mã nguồn mở chất lượng cao trong ngành. Sáu mô hình từ ba nền tảng GLM, DeepSeek và Qwen là các mô hình đầu tiên được MaaS hỗ trợ. Các mô hình này được thiết kế cho hai kịch bản ứng dụng chính: Hỏi đáp thông minh và Lập trình bằng AI. Chúng cung cấp cho người dùng khả năng truy cập chỉ bằng một cú nhấp chuột cũng như dịch vụ lưu trữ mô hình vượt trội, bao gồm toàn bộ vòng đời quản lý mô hình: từ triển khai đến suy luận, tinh chỉnh và đánh giá. Với khả năng điện toán linh hoạt và tính phí theo mức sử dụng, các doanh nghiệp và nhà phát triển có thể nhanh chóng tích hợp các năng lực của trí tuệ nhân tạo vào hệ thống dịch vụ của họ mà không cần lo lắng đến cơ sở hạ tầng.
