BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – As travel becomes less about simply changing destinations and more about spending meaningful time with oneself, solo travel is gaining popularity among today’s travellers. From working professionals and lifestyle travellers to those seeking time to rest, recharge and find new inspiration, more people are embracing the freedom to shape their journeys around their own interests, pace and preferences.

This trend reflects ONYX Hospitality Group’s “More of What You Love” philosophy. As a leading hospitality management company for hotels, resorts, serviced apartments and luxury residences across the Asia-Pacific region, ONYX believes that memorable journeys are shaped by experiences throughout every stage of travel. Beyond accommodation, this includes enjoying local cuisine, discovering destinations, experiencing local culture and making time for the small moments that give each journey meaning. For solo travellers, these experiences offer the freedom to create a journey at their own pace and discover what brings them joy in a way that suits their individual lifestyle.

For solo travellers, choosing where to stay is no longer simply about comfortable accommodation. Confidence in the standards and quality of a property, convenient locations, safety, access to public transport, restaurants, cafés and attractions, as well as opportunities to experience local communities and ways of life, all play an important role in creating a journey filled with memorable experiences.

Those planning a solo journey can choose from ONYX Hospitality Group’s diverse range of destinations and stays, from exploring the energy of the city and relaxing by the sea to connecting with nature and travelling based on personal interests. Each destination gives travellers the freedom to spend time at their own pace and create experiences that reflect their lifestyle and the things they love.

Travellers looking to begin their journey by exploring the city will find Amari Bangkok located in the Ratchaprasong area, with convenient access to shopping destinations, restaurants, cafés, attractions and public transport. It is well suited to discovering new sides of Bangkok, trying restaurants of interest or returning to the hotel to relax and enjoy wellness experiences, including Breeze Spa or time by the hotel’s swimming pool.

Another way to experience city living is at Shama Yen-Akat, which offers flexibility for those looking to combine work and relaxation, whether staying for a short or extended period. With serviced apartment-style accommodation, spacious living areas and a warm, home-like atmosphere, it provides a comfortable setting for travellers to create their own daily rhythm. Meanwhile, Oriental Residence Bangkok offers a calm and private setting in the heart of the city, ideal for those looking to spend quality time with themselves. Thoughtful and discreet service, with every detail carefully considered, creates a sense of relaxation and comfort throughout the stay.

When it is time to trade the pace of the city for the coast, resort destinations near Bangkok offer another way to experience solo travel. Amari Pattaya invites guests to discover the energy of a vibrant seaside city, with easy access to the beach, cafés, restaurants and local attractions. Meanwhile, Amari Hua Hin captures the relaxed character of a classic seaside destination, ideal for slowing down, taking a walk along the beach, discovering local restaurants and enjoying Hua Hin at one’s own pace.

Those looking to travel further and connect with the natural beauty of the Andaman coast can stay at Amari Phuket, which offers views of the Andaman Sea and convenient access to the vibrant atmosphere of Patong Beach. OZO Phuket is just steps from Kata Beach, making it ideal for travellers who enjoy beach walks, cafés, restaurants, night markets or trying their hand at surfing. For those looking to slow down and reconnect with nature, Amari Vogue Krabi offers a peaceful setting on Tubkaek Beach, surrounded by views of the sea and mountains, providing an ideal place to relax and enjoy time alone.

Travellers choosing Koh Samui as their destination can stay at Amari Koh Samui, which combines a relaxed seaside setting with opportunities to discover the character of the island. Meanwhile, OZO Chaweng Samui is located on Chaweng Beach, surrounded by restaurants, cafés and vibrant nightlife, making it well suited to travellers looking to enjoy an energetic beachside lifestyle while still setting the pace of each day for themselves.

Beyond city and seaside escapes, solo travel can also begin with a personal interest or passion. Amari Buriram United, located near Chang Arena and Chang International Circuit, offers travellers an opportunity to experience the energy of Thailand’s sports city while exploring the local culture of Isan, sampling regional cuisine and visiting key attractions in Buriram. It adds another dimension to solo travel, showing that a journey does not have to be solely about relaxation but can also be an opportunity to discover new experiences through the things one loves.

Solo travel is not about being alone. It is an opportunity to discover new perspectives, connect with local people and cultures, and live at a pace of one’s own choosing. Whether stepping into a small café for the first time, exploring an unfamiliar neighbourhood or simply sitting back to take in the atmosphere of a city, every moment can become part of an experience that inspires, refreshes and makes each journey meaningful in its own way.

QIONGHAI, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – On the evening of August 16, 2026, the 7th Hainan Sports Games opened at the Qionghai Culture and Sports Center. Feng Fei, Secretary of the CPC Hainan Provincial Committee, declared the Games open, and Liu Xiaoming, Deputy Secretary of the CPC Hainan Provincial Committee and Governor of Hainan Province, delivered the opening address. This marks the first comprehensive sporting event held in Hainan since the island-wide special customs operations of the Hainan Free Trade Port of China took effect.

The opening ceremony, themed “This Sea Embraces All,” featured a cultural performance structured around the Wanquan River as its narrative thread. Dynamic ground projection technology brought the river “into” the stadium, showcasing Hainan’s development trajectory, from its ecological splendor to its ever-expanding openness. The performance comprised chapters including “Wanquan River in Pictures,” “Hainan Flowers Facing the Sun,” “Passion in Motion,” “Hainan Acceleration,” and “Under the Same Expanse of Blue,” integrating Hainan’s revolutionary heritage, mass participation in sports, the Free Trade Port’s “Five-Pronged Development” strategy, and the spirit of openness embodied by Boao. Chief Director Wu Wanting said she hoped the imagery of the Wanquan River would convey a sense of “the sea and sky becoming one, and hearts beating as one.”

One of the highlights of this year’s Provincial Games is extensive public participation. Fourteen community contingents and more than 10,000 residents voluntarily signed up for the pre-opening ceremony group singing activities. More than 700 performers in the warm-up program came from 21 community groups, ranging in age from 6 to 72, truly embodying the spirit of “performed by the people, watched by the people, and enjoyed by the people.”

More than 4,200 athletes from 18 delegations across the province are competing in 18 sports comprising 21 disciplines. As home to the permanent home of the Boao Forum for Asia (BFA) and the Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone, Qionghai is using the Provincial Games as a showcase for the vitality and openness of a “New Qionghai Powered by the Free Trade Port.” The Games will continue until August 26.

Second-year cross-border program connects Citigold Summer Analysts and Citigold Wealth Analysts with fintech leaders, artificial intelligence (AI) applications and emerging trends transforming wealth management

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – Citigold recently concluded its second cross-border field trip, a full-day immersive visit to Shenzhen designed to equip the next generation of wealth professionals with firsthand insights into the forefront of technology and financial services in the Greater Bay Area (GBA). Organized in partnership with the FinTech Association of Hong Kong (FTAHK) and the Shenzhen FinTech Association (SZFTA), the initiative brought together the Class of 2026 Citigold Summer Analysts, Citigold Wealth Analysts and senior leaders for a day of high-impact cross-border learning and exchange.

As a powerhouse of the GBA’s innovation economy, Shenzhen offered participants an unfiltered ground-level view of how AI and next-generation technologies are reshaping client expectations and redefining the wealth management industry. Building on the success of last year’s inaugural trip, the 2026 program deepens Citi’s commitment to investing in young talent at every stage of their careers, broadening perspectives and cultivating the forward-looking mindset required to steer the future of the wealth industry.

During the trip, Citigold Summer Analysts and Citigold Wealth Analysts had the opportunity to connect with senior leaders from Ping An OneConnect, Tencent Cloud andfounders of fintech startups. Moving beyond observation, the Citigold Summer Analysts were integral to the program’s dialogue. They moderated a startup panel discussion with fintech founders, exploring themes of entrepreneurship and AI-driven innovation. The day also featured a two-way exchange session with Tencent Cloud interns, where Citigold Summer Analysts shared reflections from their Citi internship experience and discussed practical AI use cases being explored.

Following the visit, the Citigold Summer Analysts gathered for an engaging debrief session to share key takeaways, highlighting the potential of advanced AI capabilities and digital tools to automate workflows and elevate client experiences in their current roles. Reflecting on the trip’s highlights, they noted the inspiring real-world impact of technology far beyond finance, extending into healthcare, the arts, and the broader community. Others drew valuable inspiration from the startup panel, which sparked ideas on cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset and illustrated successful collaboration between agile startups and major financial institutions to accelerate innovation. The debrief concluded with the cohort reflecting on the importance of these learnings in shaping their future careers as they navigate the rapidly evolving wealth management landscape.

Vicky Kong, Head of Wealth for Asia North and Australia, Citi, said, “At Citi, we believe one of the most crucial investments is in the talent who will shape the future of wealth management. Our Citigold Summer Analysts are at the start of their professional journeys, and an experience like this can have a lasting impact. As client expectations continue to evolve, future wealth professionals need to understand how innovation and technology are transforming the way we engage with and serve clients. It was inspiring to see them engage with industry leaders, explore new ideas and consider how technology is reshaping financial services. By fostering this forward-looking mindset, we are ensuring that Citi remains at the forefront of wealth management and continues to deliver unparalleled value to our clients.”

Michele Fung, Board Member of the FinTech Association of Hong Kong (FTAHK), said, “The Greater Bay Area continues to cement its status as a premier global hub for financial innovation. Cross-border talent cultivation initiatives like Citigold’s field trip are absolutely vital to bridging Hong Kong’s deep wealth management expertise with Shenzhen’s cutting-edge fintech engine. By immersing the next generation of wealth professionals directly in the GBA ecosystem—where real-world applications of agentic AI, digital transformation, and advanced investment tools are rapidly scaling—we are actively building a highly adaptable, future-ready workforce. The FinTech Association of Hong Kong remains deeply committed to strengthening these cross-border industry ties, ensuring our talent is uniquely equipped to spearhead the future of AI-driven wealth management in the region.”

The Shenzhen immersion is a flagship component of the broader Citigold Summer Analyst Program. Now in its second consecutive year, the initiative continues to provide curated exposure to market-leading technologies and developments across the Greater Bay Area, preparing the next generation of wealth professionals for an increasingly complex and digitally-driven future.

This year, Citi Hong Kong welcomed a highly competitive cohort of Summer Analysts across its various business lines, attracting top talent from leading universities around the world. The comprehensive 10-week program provides Summer Analysts with hands-on experience, global exposure, deep insights into Citi’s overall business and strategy, and the opportunity to be offered a Full-time Analyst role after successful completion of the internship.

Later this month, Citi Hong Kong will host an Open Day for students from global universities, providing a chance to hear from senior business leaders and connect with Citi Analysts while gaining insights into the future of banking and Citi’s 2027 Summer Analyst Program.

Daryl Lau, Sales Director, Hong Kong, Jobsdb by SEEK, said: “AI and innovative technologies are reshaping recruitment and talent management at an unprecedented pace, and this year’s conference theme reflects the profound transformation currently taking place in Hong Kong’s workplace. According to our platform data, competition among job seekers in Hong Kong has continued to intensify in recent years, while talent mobility has remained high, driving up recruitment costs for employers. The core recruitment challenge facing enterprises today is how to quickly assess and identify the most suitable candidates from a vast pool of applications with limited resources.

Furthermore, our market insights show that job seekers’ expectations are no longer focused solely on salary and benefits. They are placing greater emphasis on purpose at work, growth opportunities and an inclusive workplace culture.

SABAK BERNAM, SELANGOR – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – Selangor Aviation Technology and Innovation (SELATI), in collaboration with Universiti Selangor (UNISEL), launched the Droneport-1000 initiative on 30 July 2026, marking a significant step in the development of Malaysia’s Low Altitude Economy.

Droneport-1000 is a proposed test and evaluation facility designed to support the safe development of unmanned aircraft systems, Advanced Air Mobility and next generation drone technologies. The initiative will provide a platform for collaboration among government, academia and industry, with a focus on research, testing, talent development and the responsible commercialisation of unmanned aviation solutions.

The initiative supports the wider Sabak Bernam Development Area (SABDA), a flagship regional development programme spearheaded by Menteri Besar Selangor (Incorporated) under the Selangor State Government’s Rancangan Selangor Pertama (RS-1) and continuing under Rancangan Selangor Kedua (RS-2).

Droneport-1000 is expected to complement Sabak Bernam’s established strengths in agriculture, fisheries, tourism and environmental stewardship. Unmanned aviation technologies have potential applications in precision agriculture, crop monitoring, logistics, infrastructure inspection, emergency response and biodiversity conservation. These applications could help improve productivity, strengthen public services and create new economic opportunities for local communities.

YB Dr Mohammad Fahmi bin Ngah, Selangor State Executive Councillor for Islamic Affairs and Innovation Culture, said, “Droneport-1000 reflects Selangor’s commitment to building the ecosystem required for the Low Altitude Economy. By bringing together technology, digital infrastructure and collaboration across government, academia and industry, we are creating a platform that supports innovation while preparing Malaysia for the future of unmanned aviation. “The State Government’s role is to ensure that the necessary infrastructure, ecosystem and talent are in place to support the responsible and sustainable long-term growth of the industry.”

Puan Zannifa Azura binti Ahmad, Head of the SABDA Economic Development Zone and Chief Executive Officer of SELATI, said, “Droneport-1000 has the potential to be a game changer for Sabak Bernam. Its applications can extend across agriculture, fisheries, logistics, tourism, conservation and public services, creating new opportunities for businesses and communities throughout the district. “This initiative demonstrates how technology and investment can work alongside food security, biodiversity conservation and community prosperity to build a more sustainable future for Sabak Bernam.”

SABDA is transforming one of Selangor’s most productive agricultural districts into an integrated economic corridor centred on resilience, food security, environmental stewardship and community led development.

Through 18 strategic initiatives, SABDA is creating opportunities in smart agriculture, fisheries, integrated logistics, ecotourism, agritourism, research and innovation. It is also strengthening the critical infrastructure required to attract investment and improve the quality of life of local communities.

Key catalytic projects include the 600-acre Sungai Lang Fisheries Industrial Zone, the Sekinchan Integrated Landing Port, Ban Canal Ecotourism and the proposed Anjung Utara Selangor Biosphere Reserve under UNESCO’s Man and the Biosphere Programme.

Sabak Bernam already plays an important role in Selangor’s food security ecosystem. According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia, the district has approximately 48,216 hectares of agricultural land and remains one of the state’s most important food producing regions. The district contributes significantly to paddy production, fisheries, fruit, vegetables and aquaculture. Agriculture also remains an important contributor to the local economy alongside manufacturing and services.

Recent indicators demonstrate the district’s growing momentum. Tourist arrivals increased by 74 per cent between 2024 and 2025, while marine fisheries landings grew by more than 42 per cent. Household incomes have also continued to rise.

The award-winning Ban Canal Carnival has further strengthened Sabak Bernam’s profile as an emerging ecotourism destination. The event attracts visitors while promoting local culture, cottage industries and community entrepreneurship.

Another defining aspiration of SABDA is the proposed Anjung Utara Selangor Biosphere Reserve. Covering approximately 297,661 hectares across Sabak Bernam and parts of Kuala Selangor and Hulu Selangor, the proposed reserve reflects Selangor’s commitment to balancing biodiversity conservation with sustainable economic development. Its nomination dossier is targeted for submission to UNESCO by the end of September 2026.

Together, Droneport-1000 and SABDA demonstrate how advanced technology can support sustainable regional development. The initiative aims to attract investment, strengthen food security, protect natural assets and create meaningful opportunities for the people of Sabak Bernam.

GoTyme Bank becomes the first digital bank in the Philippines to enable Apple Pay, expanding secure and seamless digital payments for 10 million customers

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 August 2026 – Paymentology, the leading global issuer processor, today announced the successful launch of Apple Pay for GoTyme Bank in the Philippines. Through this launch, GoTyme becomes one of the first issuers in the Philippine market to enable Apple Pay, giving 10 million customers an easy, secure and private way to pay using their Apple devices.

As one of the country’s fastest-growing digital banks, GoTyme continues to accelerate its digital payments strategy by expanding secure, seamless and convenient payment experiences for Filipino consumers. Customers can now securely add their GoTyme debit card to Apple Wallet and make contactless payments in stores, within apps and online wherever Apple Pay is accepted.

Apple Pay uses industry-leading tokenisation technology, meaning card numbers are never stored on devices or shared with merchants. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, with every transaction authenticated through Face ID, Touch ID or a device passcode, providing an additional layer of security while delivering a fast, frictionless checkout experience.

Nate Clark, President and CEO at GoTyme Bank commented: “At GoTyme Bank, we’re constantly looking for ways to make banking simpler, safer and more rewarding for our customers. Bringing Apple Pay to GoTyme Bank customers in the Philippines gives them an easy and secure way to pay wherever they shop while continuing to earn rewards points on all their transactions. This is another step in our commitment to making everyday banking more beautiful and convenient for our customers.

The launch comes as digital payments continue to reshape the Philippine economy. According to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), digital payments now account for more than half of all retail payment transactions, as consumers increasingly embrace mobile-first banking and contactless payments. Meanwhile, smartphone penetration continues to rise, supporting growing demand for digital wallets and tokenised payment experiences. As digital commerce accelerates, enabling secure mobile payments through services such as Apple Pay is becoming an increasingly important differentiator for financial institutions.

Minh-Ha Truong, Head of Growth, APAC at Paymentology, added: “As a long-standing partner to GoTyme, we’re proud to support another significant milestone in its growth journey. Bringing Apple Pay to market demonstrates how modern, cloud-native issuer processing enables digital banks to rapidly deliver innovative payment experiences while maintaining the highest standards of security, scalability and performance. Together, we’re helping shape the future of digital payments in the Philippines.”

The launch further strengthens GoTyme’s position as one of Southeast Asia’s leading digital banks and highlights the value of Paymentology’s cloud-native issuer processing platform in helping banks and fintechs rapidly introduce innovative payment capabilities that meet evolving customer expectations.

Special Event for F2P Game Developers Launches Alongside the Announcement

SINGAPORE- Media OutReach Newswire – 17 August 2026 – With the global game market grown to an approximate value of US$200 billion annually, JUNEiNTER unveils a model designed to estimate the future revenue of individual games.

JUNEiNTER announced the release of the “LCP Model,” which estimates future revenue based on operating data from live service games and a public event of a free-trial marking its launch.

Whereas games generate recurring monthly cash flows and function as digital assets, the industry has lacked established standards to calculate the future revenue of individual titles — making their revenue streams difficult to be utilized as measurable financial assets.

The LCP Model was developed from the fundamental question: “How much revenue will our game generate?” The S66 Engine, which applies the LCP Model, analyzes actual service data accumulated from launch to calculate potential future revenue. Accordingly, it has been simulated about 90,000 times, confirming its consistency and reproducibility.

To mark the unveiling of the LCP Model, JUNEiNTER is holding a public event for developers to get revenue estimations for their own games. Eligible participants are games that use the F2P model monetized through in-app purchases (IAP) or combining in-app purchases with in-app advertising. Steam and console games are excluded.

Participating developers will also be offered additional special benefits for future usage. Eligibility requirements and details of the benefits are available on JUNEiNTER’s official website (https://gv.juneinter.com).

A JUNEiNTER spokesperson said, “Revenue estimates generated by the S66 Engine are not intended to be investment solicitation, fundraising, or a guarantee of returns. The results are estimates based on the data submitted by developers and the model’s criteria, and may differ from actual revenue.”
