Sterling Partners announces the launch of its 2026 “Fast Track” initiative for the New Zealand Active Investor Plus (AIP) residency programme

AUCKLAND, NZ – April 24, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Edgar Sterling Partners, a premier institutional-grade advisory firm, today announced the launch of its 2026 “Fast Track” initiative for the New Zealand Active Investor Plus (AIP) residency programme. As global investors increasingly seek stability and efficiency, New Zealand has emerged as the preferred destination for high-net-worth families. The 33-Day Residency Revolution In a significant shift for the investment migration landscape, 2026 data reveals that well-prepared applications for the New Zealand AIP programme are currently averaging an “Approval in Principle” (AIP) timeframe of just 33 working days. This speed, combined with the fact that New Zealand does not require an English language test for the Active Investor Plus visa in 2026, has created a unique window of opportunity for families looking for global mobility without the traditional bureaucratic hurdles. Institutional-Grade Strategy for Global Families Edgar Sterling Partners specializes in bridging the gap between international wealth and New Zealand’s disciplined regulatory framework. The firm offers two distinct, portfolio-driven pathways: The Growth Alpha Portfolio: A NZD $5 million investment with a 3-year term and a minimal 21-day physical presence requirement. This strategy focuses on high-growth sectors including Future Tech, AI, and Renewable Energy. The Balanced Anchor Portfolio: A NZD $10 million investment with a 5-year term. This pathway prioritizes wealth preservation through the NZX 50 and offers the immediate “Lifestyle Perk” of eligibility to apply for residential property purchase consent for homes valued over NZD $5 million. A Commitment to Transparency “We act as the insurance policy for our clients’ government investments,” says Steve Jones, a Director of Edgar Sterling Partners. “By operating a strict ‘Fee-Only’ model, we ensure our interests are 100% aligned with the security of our clients’ capital and the success of their residency”. Edgar Sterling’s proprietary “Unbroken Chain” forensic audit process ensures that Source of Wealth (SOW) and Source of Funds (SOF) documentation meets the highest standards of Immigration New Zealand, significantly reducing the risk of processing delays. About Edgar Sterling Partners Edgar Sterling Partners provides integrated wealth structuring, portfolio design, and residency coordination from its headquarters in Auckland, New Zealand. The firm serves globally mobile families across the United States, Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, ensuring that New Zealand residency allocations align with global asset objectives and family succession goals.

FastX Announces Its Launch, a New Generation Global Trading Exchange ACN Newswire

FastX Announces Its Launch, a New Generation Global Trading Exchange

NEW YORK, Apr 24, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - FastX today announces the official launch of its platform, a next-generation exchange built for professional and active traders who require institutional‑grade tools without surrendering custody or control of their assets. FastX goes live globally on 5 May, with traders able to access the platform directly at fastx.co.FastX combines deep on‑chain liquidity, multi‑asset perpetual futures markets, and an advanced copy-trading engine designed to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the decentralized digital asset ecosystem. By leveraging blockchain technology, the platform delivers low‑latency mirroring of trades across major decentralized networks worldwide—while keeping users in full control of their own wallets and risk."FastX was created by traders for traders," said Adelene, Chief Executive Officer of FastX. "We've spent our careers on Wall Street desks and in crypto markets, and we've seen the same problems repeat: opaque execution, misaligned incentives, and copytrading systems that ask users to blindly outsource decisions. FastX is our answer—a decentralised, transparent infrastructure layer where traders keep custody, and technology works to augment, not replace, their edge."Backed by a team of veteran traders with more than 50 years of combined experience across top Wall Street institutions and leading crypto trading firms, FastX is built from the ground up as a decentralised protocol. Users connect their own wallets, maintain self‑custody at all times, and interact with smart contracts that execute trades on‑chain, rather than relying on a centralised broker or custodial exchange.At launch, FastX will offer:Deep, on‑chain liquidity across a wide range of perpetual markets, designed to support serious position sizes with tight spreads and minimal slippage.A fast, intuitive trading interface accessible directly via fastx.co, allowing traders to plug in with their preferred wallet and start trading in minutes.A transparent affiliate and points system that shares a meaningful portion of platform fees with the community and rewards traders and partners who help grow liquidity and volume.The flagship feature of FastX is its next‑generation copytrading system. Unlike traditional social trading products that mirror orders on a single venue with unpredictable delays, FastX's engine is designed to route and synchronise copy trades across major decentralised exchanges, layering those capabilities on top of FastX's own liquidity.The result is a copytrading experience that aims to:Minimise latency between lead and follower execution.Mitigate structural risks such as slippage, desync, and obvious forms of manipulation.Exploit decentralised advantages, such as transparent on‑chain track records and programmable risk controls, without turning the platform into a centralised black box."Copytrading has always been typecast as a blind, autonomous disaster waiting to happen," Adelene added. "FastX takes the opposite stance. We use technology to bring more transparency, not less—on‑chain track records, built‑in risk parameters, and infrastructure that reduces front‑running and execution games wherever possible. Over time, our goal is to layer AI‑driven intelligence on top of this foundation so that users can benefit from advanced analytics and risk management, rather than just 'follow and hope'."FastX is currently seed‑funded by a network of angels deeply embedded in the global crypto trading ecosystem. These backers share a common view that the next generation of markets will be built on open, verifiable rails and that traders deserve better, more transparent instrumentation for expressing and managing risk. FastX is assembling a strong advisory board of experienced traders, market makers, and technologists to guide the exchange through its next phase of growth.As a decentralised protocol, FastX does not take custody of user funds and does not operate as a traditional broker. All positions, liquidations, and fee flows are visible on‑chain, giving traders clear, verifiable insight into how the system behaves under all market conditions."Our vision is simple," said Adelene. "We want professional‑grade perpetuals and intelligent copytrading to live where they belong: on transparent, decentralised infrastructure, not in a black box. Launching FastX on 5 May is the first step. From here, we'll continue to ship faster execution, smarter tooling, and AI‑enhanced copytrading that helps traders survive and thrive in 24/7 markets."Traders can learn more and access the exchange at https://fastx.co.About FastXFastX focuses on building decentralised financial infrastructure and tools for professional traders and sophisticated market participants. The company backs products that prioritise self‑custody, transparency, and robust risk management in rapidly evolving digital asset markets.Media ContactBrand: FastX Perpetuals ExchangeContact: Ella HuangWebsite: https://fastx.co/ Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

CMS (867.HK; 8A8.SG): NDA for the Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis Indication of Class 1 Innovative Drug MG-K10 Accepted in China ACN Newswire

CMS (867.HK; 8A8.SG): NDA for the Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis Indication of Class 1 Innovative Drug MG-K10 Accepted in China

SHENZHEN, Apr 23, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Medical System Holdings Limited (the “Group” or “CMS”) is pleased to announce that the New Drug Application (NDA) in China for the Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis (SAR) indication of MG-K10 (generic name: Comekibart Injection, “MG-K10” or the “Product”), a Class 1 innovative drug anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody injection, for which the Group holds co-development rights (excluding the indication of atopic dermatitis (AD)) and exclusive commercialization rights, was accepted by the National Medical Products Administration of China (NMPA) on 23 April 2026. The Product is proposed for the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe seasonal allergic rhinitis whose symptoms remain inadequately controlled after treatment with intranasal corticosteroids.The acceptance of the NDA represents an important milestone for the Group’s ophthalmology business, CMS Vision, as it expands its therapeutic focus from ophthalmology into the field of otolaryngology (ENT). It also marks another significant milestone in the Group’s research and development progress in the field of type 2 inflammatory diseases. If the Product is successfully approved for marketing, the Group will leverage its strong academic promotion capabilities and extensive commercialization network to accelerate the commercialization of the Product. It is also expected to further enhance the academic brand influence of CMS Vision in the relevant specialty areas and provide new momentum for the Group’s business growth.BIC Potential: Dosing once every 4 weeks; Phase III study met the primary endpoint with a favorable safety profileMG-K10 is an innovative long-acting anti-IL-4Rα humanized monoclonal antibody that simultaneously blocks the signaling pathways of the key type 2 inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and IL-13, thereby exerting immunomodulatory effects. It is being developed for the treatment of type 2 inflammatory diseases, including seasonal allergic rhinitis, asthma, atopic dermatitis (AD), prurigo nodularis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, and eosinophilic esophagitis. Currently marketed anti-IL-4Rα therapies require administration once every two weeks. MG-K10, with its longer half-life, enabling a once-every-four-weeks dosing regimen. It therefore has the potential to become the first long-acting anti-IL-4Rα monoclonal antibody to be marketed globally, with the potential to be best-in-class. MG-K10 has met the primary endpoint in a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III clinical trial in adult patients with moderate-to-severe seasonal allergic rhinitis. The results of the Phase III study demonstrated that the primary endpoint achieved statistical significance, with significantly superior efficacy compared with the placebo group, and a favorable safety profile.Focusing on Unmet Needs: ~250 million patients; 62% of moderate-to-severe patients remain inadequately controlled; long-acting breakthrough brings new treatment opportunitiesAllergic rhinitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa mediated by IgE, with type 2 inflammation as the core pathogenic mechanism. It occurs in susceptible individuals upon exposure to environmental allergens such as pollen and dust mites. In recent years, the prevalence of the disease in China has increased from 11.1% to 17.6%, affecting approximately 250 million people[1], among whom 52.2% are patients with persistent moderate-to-severe disease[2]. The disease burden is significant and has become an important public health issue. Current standard treatments, including intranasal corticosteroids and antihistamines, have notable limitations. 62% of patients with moderate-to-severe disease remain inadequately controlled[3]. Long-term use of intranasal corticosteroids may lead to adverse reactions such as epistaxis[4], while antihistamines are often associated with side effects such as drowsiness[5], indicating significant unmet clinical needs. As a biologic therapy targeting IL-4Rα, MG-K10 can block the type 2 inflammatory pathway at its source. Compared with currently approved biologics targeting the same pathway (which require dosing once every two weeks), MG-K10 achieves a differentiated breakthrough in dosing frequency with its long-acting property allowing administration once every four weeks, thereby significantly extending dosing intervals. This may help improve patient treatment adherence and reduce the time and economic burden associated with frequent hospital visits. The Product has the potential to provide a new treatment option for patients with moderate-to-severe disease who respond poorly to conventional therapies, thereby reducing the individual and socio-economic burden associated with the disease.On 24 January 2025, the Group through subsidiaries of the Company entered into a Collaboration Agreement (“Agreement”) with Hunan Mabgeek Biotech Co., LTD and its subsidiary for MG-K10. In accordance with the Agreement and supplementary agreements, the Group has obtained the co-development rights (excluding AD) and exclusive commercialization rights for the Product in Mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Macao Special Administrative Region, Taiwan Region and Singapore; its subsidiary Dermavon Holdings Limited has obtained, through its subsidiary, the co-development rights (excluding AD) and exclusive commercialization rights for the Product in the field of dermatological indications in Mainland China.About CMSCMS is a platform company linking pharmaceutical innovation and commercialization with strong product lifecycle management capability, dedicated to providing competitive products and services to meet unmet medical needs.CMS focuses on the global first-in-class (FIC) and best-in-class (BIC) innovative products, and efficiently promotes the clinical research, development and commercialization of innovative products, enabling the continuous transformation of scientific research into clinical practices to benefit patients.CMS deeply engages in several specialty therapeutic fields, and has developed proven commercialization capabilities, extensive networks and expert resources, resulting in leading academic and market positions for its major marketed products.

The events also attracted quality buyers from global markets. This helps companies diversify supply chains, explore new markets, and underscores Hong Kong’s strength as an ‘International Exhibition Capital’ which boosts efficient business platforms. The fairs are the preferred platform for the industry to showcase innovation, connect with global buyer networks and accelerate business development.”Survey findings: Respondents were most optimistic about the India and Australia marketsTo keep abreast of the latest industry developments, the HKTDC conducted an on-site survey during the fairs, interviewing 450 exhibitors and buyers. The findings show that overall confidence among exhibitors and buyers in future business development has shown a general increase.Key market outlook and product trend findings:49.1% of respondents expect overall sales to increase in the next 12 to 24 months, while 47.6% expect sales to remain stable.Respondents consider India (73.4%), Australia (71%), ASEAN countries (70.4%), and Japan (68.1%) to be promising or very promising target sales markets for lighting products over the next two years in terms of growth.In terms of new market development, exhibitor respondents are actively exploring Middle East (31.8%), Europe (29.5%), ASEAN countries (23.9%), Latin America (17.6%) and North America (14.8%).In the smart lighting segment, respondents identified home automation and intelligent lighting control systems (48.2%), energy saving lighting control solutions (38.2%), and outdoor smart security lighting systems (31.1%) as having the greatest growth potential over the next two years.Compared with conventional lighting products, respondents indicated that consumers are willing to pay an average premium of 29% for lighting products equipped with smart functions.Scenario-based displays and new zones enhance sourcing effectiveness, with positive trade outcomesThe newly launched “Light Lab” features various scenario-based and immersive designs, integrating lighting products into landscape, sports, cultural and artistic application settings. Shanghai Sansi Electronic Engineering showcased plant clamp lights and compact downlights suitable for museum applications.

This has successfully attracted buyers from Argentina, Canada, Germany, India, Japan and the US to visit our booth for in-depth discussions. We expect this to result in orders worth over US$1 million.”The Smart Lighting Expo also debuted the “Smart Display and Stage Lighting & Sound Zone” which displayed a wide range of intelligent display solutions. Industry leader Absen participated in the fair for the first time. Benjamin Tang, Senior Sales Engineer, said: “The new zone has effectively enhanced product visibility, attracting buyers from Eastern Europe, Oceania, North America, South America, and South Asia to our booth. These inquiries came from new clients across key sectors such as cultural tourism and stage engineering. We have also successfully engaged in several promising collaboration discussions with potential clients from the Dominican Republic, Hong Kong and Thailand, further strengthening the company’s market expansion plan. We estimate the value of orders from the expo will amount to US$930,000. Riding on this momentum, we have decided to join the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition) this year.”The newly launched “Leisure Lighting Zone” has injected new momentum into the Spring Lighting Fair. Rebecca Seo, CFO of NIZ, a first-time exhibitor from Korea, said: “The fair has provided us with an excellent platform to connect with international buyers.

Merry Liu, Manager of Bairan Lighting, an industrial enterprise above designated size in Henglan, Zhongshan, said: “The two lighting fairs provide Zhongshan enterprises with an efficient ‘go-global’ gateway, enabling us to connect directly with buyers from Europe, the Middle East, South America, and Southeast Asia.

We expect to achieve US$2 million in sales.”During the fair, the HKTDC organised a buying mission to Zhongshan for the first time, visiting several lighting factories and participating in business matching meetings.

We expect to generate US$2 million in sales turnover for our company.”As construction projects in the ASEAN region accelerate, market demand for smart lighting solutions continues to expand. Sambath HK, Manager of RS Decoration from Cambodia, stated, “I travelled here specifically to source lighting products for 14 new commercial building and luxury residential projects. I have already met with over 20 new suppliers and identified two potential partners offering smart street lights, solar lights, and decorative lighting products. I will initially purchase US$100,000 worth of smart street lights.”Driven by the Belt and Road Initiative, urban development in participating countries and regions are in full swing, fuelling a continuous surge in demand for high-efficiency and smart lighting products. Aigerim Beisekina, Supply Manager of Karelz.kz from Kazakhstan, said: “This is our first time visiting the twin lighting fairs, to find reliable suppliers for a solar-powered stadium and sports lighting for three international schools currently under construction in Kazakhstan. Through the Click2Match business matching platform, we have identified three potential suppliers from the Chinese Mainland and plan to purchase lighting equipment valued between US$600,000 and US$900,000.”During the fairs, multiple professional events were held, including the Asian Lighting Conference and the Smart Lighting Solutions Forum.

FastX Launching, a New Generation Global Trading Exchange ACN Newswire

FastX Launching, a New Generation Global Trading Exchange

NEW YORK, Apr 23, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - FastX today announces the official launch of its platform, a next-generation exchange built for professional and active traders who require institutional‑grade tools without surrendering custody or control of their assets. FastX goes live globally on 5 May, with traders able to access the platform directly at fastx.co.FastX combines deep on‑chain liquidity, multi‑asset perpetual futures markets, and an advanced copy-trading engine designed to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the decentralized digital asset ecosystem. By leveraging blockchain technology, the platform delivers low‑latency mirroring of trades across major decentralized networks worldwide—while keeping users in full control of their own wallets and risk."FastX was created by traders for traders," said Adelene, Chief Executive Officer of FastX. "We've spent our careers on Wall Street desks and in crypto markets, and we've seen the same problems repeat: opaque execution, misaligned incentives, and copytrading systems that ask users to blindly outsource decisions. FastX is our answer—a decentralised, transparent infrastructure layer where traders keep custody, and technology works to augment, not replace, their edge."Backed by a team of veteran traders with more than 50 years of combined experience across top Wall Street institutions and leading crypto trading firms, FastX is built from the ground up as a decentralised protocol. Users connect their own wallets, maintain self‑custody at all times, and interact with smart contracts that execute trades on‑chain, rather than relying on a centralised broker or custodial exchange.At launch, FastX will offer:Deep, on‑chain liquidity across a wide range of perpetual markets, designed to support serious position sizes with tight spreads and minimal slippage.A fast, intuitive trading interface accessible directly via fastx.co, allowing traders to plug in with their preferred wallet and start trading in minutes.A transparent affiliate and points system that shares a meaningful portion of platform fees with the community and rewards traders and partners who help grow liquidity and volume.The flagship feature of FastX is its next‑generation copytrading system. Unlike traditional social trading products that mirror orders on a single venue with unpredictable delays, FastX's engine is designed to route and synchronise copy trades across major decentralised exchanges, layering those capabilities on top of FastX's own liquidity.The result is a copytrading experience that aims to:Minimise latency between lead and follower execution.Mitigate structural risks such as slippage, desync, and obvious forms of manipulation.Exploit decentralised advantages, such as transparent on‑chain track records and programmable risk controls, without turning the platform into a centralised black box."Copytrading has always been typecast as a blind, autonomous disaster waiting to happen," Adelene added. "FastX takes the opposite stance. We use technology to bring more transparency, not less—on‑chain track records, built‑in risk parameters, and infrastructure that reduces front‑running and execution games wherever possible. Over time, our goal is to layer AI‑driven intelligence on top of this foundation so that users can benefit from advanced analytics and risk management, rather than just 'follow and hope'."FastX is currently seed‑funded by a network of angels deeply embedded in the global crypto trading ecosystem. These backers share a common view that the next generation of markets will be built on open, verifiable rails and that traders deserve better, more transparent instrumentation for expressing and managing risk. FastX is assembling a strong advisory board of experienced traders, market makers, and technologists to guide the exchange through its next phase of growth.As a decentralised protocol, FastX does not take custody of user funds and does not operate as a traditional broker. All positions, liquidations, and fee flows are visible on‑chain, giving traders clear, verifiable insight into how the system behaves under all market conditions."Our vision is simple," said Adelene. "We want professional‑grade perpetuals and intelligent copytrading to live where they belong: on transparent, decentralised infrastructure, not in a black box. Launching FastX on 5 May is the first step. From here, we'll continue to ship faster execution, smarter tooling, and AI‑enhanced copytrading that helps traders survive and thrive in 24/7 markets."Traders can learn more and access the exchange at https://fastx.co.About FastXFastX focuses on building decentralised financial infrastructure and tools for professional traders and sophisticated market participants. The company backs products that prioritise self‑custody, transparency, and robust risk management in rapidly evolving digital asset markets.Media ContactBrand: FastX Perpetuals ExchangeContact: Ella HuangWebsite: https://fastx.co/ Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

EQS via SeaPRwire.com / 2026-04-23 / 15:40 UTC+8 政府公报、租金数据与第三方排名,揭示了柔佛这个超级项目的真实面貌 曾几何时,“鬼城”这个标签被牢牢贴在马来西亚森林城市身上。但如今,这一说法事实上已经过时。以下是最新数据所揭示的情况。 在东南亚房地产界,很少有标签像“鬼城”这样,既根深蒂固,又充满争议。这个投资千亿美元的巨型项目,坐落在马来西亚柔佛州的土地上。从BBC到YouTube上的热门纪录片,国际媒体曾反复播放空旷的林荫大道和空置大楼的画面,让这个标签多年来挥之不去。 但情况已经发生了实质性的变化。2024年,马来西亚政府正式设立森林城市特别金融区(SFZ),并将其纳入更大范围的柔佛-新加坡经济特区(JSSEZ)框架。此后,关键指标开始显著转向。 商业活动及机遇正纷纷入局。目前,森林城市已有近两万名居民。森林城市高尔夫度假村的“经典球场”已连续七年(2020-2026)入选“亚洲百佳高尔夫球场”,而由高尔夫传奇人物杰克·尼克劳斯与其子设计的“传奇球场”,则在“2024-2025亚太百佳高尔夫球场”榜单中位列第49名。此外,涵盖海滩走廊、红树林生态游、海钓、合法执照的烟花摊点等新型配套设施,正吸引着日益扩大的游客群体。 早期报道捕捉了那个特定时刻的画面。但如今的数据、实地观察与独立排名,呈现的是一幅持续活跃的图景。本文将追溯“鬼城”标签的由来,分析哪些方面已经改变,并用数据还原森林城市的真实状况。 “鬼城”标签从何而来? 这个标签并非凭空出现。它反映了森林城市在特定发展阶段的真实状况——政策调整、疫情冲击、国际媒体报道的时机,共同塑造了那个形象。 2014年至2018年: 森林城市项目启动,初期面向中国大陆买家,并进行大规模跨境营销。建设尚处于早期阶段,住宅大楼和核心配套设施分期投入使用。 2018年至2020年: 时任总理马哈蒂尔·穆罕默德收紧外国人购房政策,导致中国需求降温,原有的销售节奏受到影响。 2020年至2022年: 新冠疫情导致的边境关闭,切断了主要买家和游客来源。入住率偏低,但建设仍在继续,国际媒体正是借助这个“空窗期”拍摄了大量特定画面。 2023年至2024年: 总理安瓦尔·易卜拉欣将森林城市作为国家金融特区战略的一部分予以支持,并与柔佛—新加坡经济特区挂钩。政策正式推动从以住宅为主的项目转型为综合功能区,向金融服务、家族办公室提供服务,和激励专业人才。这是一个真正的转折点。 那么,如果抛开2020年的旧影像,用当下的数据来看,森林城市究竟是什么样子? 森林城市现在怎么样? 截至2026年,森林城市已发展为一个活跃、有充分入住率的社区,居民与游客数据可查可核。项目已建成2.6万套住宅单位,约80%已售出,吸引了来自20多个国家的近两万名居民。商业活动已经扩大,金融中心内有一个3万平方米的购物中心,加上海岸边的渔人码头商业街,已有超过100家零售店铺在运营。沿着4公里长的开发海岸线,日常游客来这里参观红树林生态旅游和海钓活动。高尔夫仍然是一个核心亮点,近年来越来越多的高尔夫球手专程到访森林城市备受赞誉的球场。 马来西亚森林城市现状。住宅大楼已全面投入运营,直线距离新加坡仅2公里,居住着来自20多个国家的超过15,000名居民。 2024-2026年的关键活动指标显示,实际情况与2018-2022年期间的媒体报道已截然不同: 指标 2020-2022年(媒体报道期间) 2024-2026年(当前) 居民数量 建设期间入住率低 来自20多个国家约20,000人 办公室租金 1.50令吉/平方英尺 5.50令吉/平方英尺 (+267%) 办公入驻率 — 59%(已推出50,000平方英尺) 旅游设施 未运营 高尔夫度假村、酒店、红树林旅游、海钓、4公里海岸线、8公里骑行道、婚礼场地、水上乐园、购物中心、商业街等 国际学校 — 国际学校(属于CATS全球学校网络),提供从幼儿园到高中的教育 游客到访量 接近零(疫情封锁) 每年超过300万人次 这个曾经被贴上“鬼城”标签的项目,如今已向马来西亚政府累计缴税超过7.9亿令吉,为企业社会责任项目投入5300万令吉,与190多家本地企业建立合作,并为红树林、海草保护等环境项目投入超过1.4亿令吉。 发生了什么变化了?特别金融区的效应 2024年,马来西亚政府将森林城市指定为柔佛-新加坡经济特区内的金融特区,使该项目从开发商主导的住宅项目,转变为一个政府锚定、有双边背书的经济战略。该指定明确了一系列激励措施: 符合条件的家族办公室投资收入,首10年享受0%税率,符合条件可再延长10年。 金融、科技及其他特定行业的合格机构,可享受20年5%的企业税率。 知识型工作者可享受15%的个人所得税率。 家族办公室的最低管理资产规模(AUM)为3,000万令吉。 这些政策改变了行为模式。目前已有六个家族办公室获得批准,报告的资产管理规模合计达4亿令吉。政府为金融特区设定的目标是,到2026年底资产管理规模达到20亿令吉。写字楼租赁随之活跃,租金要价从每平方英尺1.50令吉上涨至5.50令吉,涨幅达267%,首批5万平方英尺的商业空间入驻率已达到59%。这些数字表明的是市场驱动的定价,而非促销性的定位。 双边层面的意义同样不可忽视。新加坡对柔佛-新加坡特别经济区框架的正式认可,将政策信誉延伸至马来西亚国内政治周期之外,使森林城市成为一个处于估值正常化初期的跨境资产。对于习惯于评估主权风险的投资者而言,两国政府的联合承诺代表着重要的去风险信号。 如今谁住在森林城市? 截至2026年的人口统计数据显示,居民结构比项目早期聚焦中国市场的营销所呈现的要更加多元化。超过15,000名来自20多个国家的居民如今以森林城市为家,使其成为一个国际化社区,而非单一市场的聚居区。 日常生活基础设施已经成熟,能够支撑稳定的居住生活。零售和餐饮门店已配备齐全,可满足居民和游客的日常需求,涵盖从日用品、餐饮到医疗服务和家具等各个方面。对大多数居民而言,晚上已无需再驱车25分钟前往新山市中心商业区。 教育也成为吸引家庭落户的主要因素。森林城市国际学校成立于2018年,是CATS全球学校网络在马来西亚的旗舰校区,一所著名的美式K12寄宿学校,提供从幼儿园到高中的教育。超过一半的教学人员从海外招聘,均拥有五年以上教学经验,其中60%拥有硕士或博士学位。森林城市国际学校2025届毕业生取得优异成绩,获得包括伦敦大学学院(UCL)、南洋理工大学(NTU)、香港大学(HKU)、多伦多大学(U of T)、英属哥伦比亚大学(UBC)、首尔大学(SNU)、高丽大学(KU)、延世大学(YU)、东京大学(UTokyo)、伦敦艺术大学(UAL)、萨凡纳艺术与设计学院(SCAD)等17所名校的录取。这指标反映的是教育成果,而不仅仅是招生宣传。 这座城市的活力也体现在定期的节庆、运动会和多元文化聚会中,这些活动同时服务于外籍人士和马来西亚本地家庭。在CNA Insider的一期森林城市专题视频中,受访者尼扎姆指出:“以前关于森林城市有很多负面评价,我想现在人们知道了,他们亲眼看到了实际情况是怎样的。这里非常热闹。” 这些变化大多是在金融特区落地后发生的,特区政策把人口增长,逐渐转化成了更稳定、更有凝聚力的社区生活。 森林城市海滨的一场社区活动。该处每年举办超过100场国际活动和赛事,包括定于2026年10月举行的马来西亚挑战赛铁人三项。 在森林城市到底有什么做? 除了政策机制,森林城市现已建成并运营完善的旅游休闲基础设施。 目前已投入运营的设施和活动包括: 高尔夫度假村:“经典球场”连续七年(2020-2026)位列“亚洲百佳高尔夫球场”榜单;由高尔夫传奇人物杰克·尼克劳斯及其子杰克·尼克劳斯二世设计的“传承球场”,在中国最大高尔夫平台“云高”评选的“2024-2025亚太百佳高尔夫球场”榜单中位列第49名。 酒店:森林城市滨海酒店和森林城市高尔夫酒店,两家五星级酒店,提供完善的度假设施,适合短期和长期入住,满足休闲旅游和与商务差旅需求。 红树林生态游: 在毗邻的286万平方米绿色走廊内,可由注册的游船公司提供导览服务,带领红树林游览。该生态系统栖息并记录着超过400种动植物。海滨及近海区域提供休闲海钓活动。 海钓:沿海和近海均可进行休闲海钓,适合热爱海洋、寻求刺激和深海探险的游客。提供灵活的双人或四人套餐,部分含餐。 海岸线:约4公里长的已开发海滩,包括公共步道、海滨长廊和休闲设施,以及专门的婚礼场地。 毗邻新加坡:森林城市距离新加坡直线距离约2公里,驾车前往新加坡中央商务区(CBD)约40分钟,方便从新加坡出发的一日游或周末短途旅行。 活动日程: 每年举办超过100场涵盖高尔夫、休闲和文化类别的国际活动和赛事。马来西亚挑战赛铁人三项定于2026年10月举行,为日益丰富的顶级赛事阵容再添活力。 对游客而言,最直观的变化是可以真正走进这片自然环境。森林城市保留了286万平方米的绿地,记录有超过400种动植物。此外,森林城市在城市规划、可持续发展和酒店服务方面荣获40多项国际奖项,其众多建筑已获得LEED认证。这些优势为游客打造了切实可行的游览路线。 森林城市高尔夫度假村。经典球场连续七年(2020-2026)入选亚洲百佳高尔夫球场;由杰克·尼克劳斯设计的传承球场在2024-2025亚太百佳中位列第49名。度假村每年举办超过100场国际赛事。 马来西亚政府为何如此重视森林城市项目? 森林城市的发展轨迹体现了政策与企业之间日益显著的契合,这种融合已将政治承诺转化为立法颁布和实体基础设施。 机构入驻传递出实地信号: 马来西亚投资促进中心(IMFC)已在森林城市设立办事处,十余家政府机构在此办公,这表明政府积极利用而非放弃该项目。 政府获得的收益可量化: 已缴纳超过7.9亿令吉的税款,创造了1万个就业岗位,与超过190家本地企业建立了合作关系,投入5300万令吉用于企业社会责任项目,并投入1.4亿令吉用于环境保护工作。这些数据表明,公私合作模式正在产生可审计的收益。 交通规划与政策一致: 新山-新加坡快速交通系统(RTS)连接线计划于2026年底完工。吉隆坡-新加坡高速铁路项目仍在持续推进中。柔佛苏丹提出的海上轻轨系统旨在缓解新柔长堤上长期存在的关卡拥堵问题。 结论 “鬼城”标签捕捉的是2018年至2022年间的一个窗口期——当时建设占据主导、边境关闭、政策抑制了需求。 那个窗口期已经关闭。 对于游客来说,一日游和周末游现在已是切实可行的选择。对于居民来说,宜居性可以根据现有的基础设施来评估,而不必再被旧印象左右。对于投资者而言,六个已获批准的家族办公室在已颁布的金融特区规则下营运,代表着该政策框架的早期验证。 2026年的图景已截然不同:一个已颁布立法的指定金融特区,机构租户已经入驻,办公空间正按市场价出租,近20,000名居民居住在26,000套已建成的住宅中,以及围绕备受赞誉的高尔夫球场和4公里已开发海岸线建立的旅游与活动生态系统。 数据已披露并记录在案。政府公报、第三方排名、税收缴纳数据、入驻率指标以及当前的实地情况,比当年媒体报道的建设阶段画面,更能全面展现现状。 对于那些关注东南亚投资机会、尤其是聚焦柔佛—新加坡走廊的参与者来说,“鬼城”的历史标签与2026年的经济现实之间,差距已经大到无法忽视。当然,金融特区的基准数据和不断上涨的租金回报率,提供了可靠的分析基础;但真正的尽职调查,仍然少不了一趟实地考察。亲眼看一看这座城市当前的运营状况,是将过去的报道与特殊功能区切实的经济发展势头进行对比的最佳途径。 2026-04-23 此财经新闻稿由EQS via SeaPRwire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php

GA Ventures Ltd Announces Official Launch of FastX, a New Generation Global Trading Exchange

George Town, Cayman Islands – April 23, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – GA Ventures Ltd today announced the official launch of FastX, a next-generation exchange built for professional and active traders who require institutional‑grade tools without surrendering custody or control of their assets. FastX goes live globally on 5 May, with traders able to access the platform directly at fastx.co. FastX combines deep on‑chain liquidity, multi‑asset perpetual futures markets, and an advanced copy-trading engine designed to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the decentralized digital asset ecosystem. By leveraging blockchain technology, the platform delivers low‑latency mirroring of trades across major decentralized networks worldwide—while keeping users in full control of their own wallets and risk. “FastX was created by traders for traders,” said Adelene, Chief Executive Officer of FastX. “We’ve spent our careers on Wall Street desks and in crypto markets, and we’ve seen the same problems repeat: opaque execution, misaligned incentives, and copytrading systems that ask users to blindly outsource decisions. FastX is our answer—a decentralised, transparent infrastructure layer where traders keep custody, and technology works to augment, not replace, their edge.” Backed by a team of veteran traders with more than 50 years of combined experience across top Wall Street institutions and leading crypto trading firms, FastX is built from the ground up as a decentralised protocol. Users connect their own wallets, maintain self‑custody at all times, and interact with smart contracts that execute trades on‑chain, rather than relying on a centralised broker or custodial exchange. At launch, FastX will offer: Deep, on‑chain liquidity across a wide range of perpetual markets, designed to support serious position sizes with tight spreads and minimal slippage. A fast, intuitive trading interface accessible directly via fastx.co, allowing traders to plug in with their preferred wallet and start trading in minutes. A transparent affiliate and points system that shares a meaningful portion of platform fees with the community and rewards traders and partners who help grow liquidity and volume. The flagship feature of FastX is its next‑generation copytrading system. Unlike traditional social trading products that mirror orders on a single venue with unpredictable delays, FastX’s engine is designed to route and synchronise copy trades across major decentralised exchanges, layering those capabilities on top of FastX’s own liquidity. The result is a copytrading experience that aims to: Minimise latency between lead and follower execution. Mitigate structural risks such as slippage, desync, and obvious forms of manipulation. Exploit decentralised advantages, such as transparent on‑chain track records and programmable risk controls, without turning the platform into a centralised black box. “Copytrading has always been typecast as a blind, autonomous disaster waiting to happen,” Adelene added. “FastX takes the opposite stance. We use technology to bring more transparency, not less—on‑chain track records, built‑in risk parameters, and infrastructure that reduces front‑running and execution games wherever possible. Over time, our goal is to layer AI‑driven intelligence on top of this foundation so that users can benefit from advanced analytics and risk management, rather than just ‘follow and hope’.” FastX is currently seed‑funded by a network of angels deeply embedded in the global crypto trading ecosystem. These backers share a common view that the next generation of markets will be built on open, verifiable rails and that traders deserve better, more transparent instrumentation for expressing and managing risk. GA Ventures and FastX are assembling a strong advisory board of experienced traders, market makers, and technologists to guide the exchange through its next phase of growth. As a decentralised protocol, FastX does not take custody of user funds and does not operate as a traditional broker. All positions, liquidations, and fee flows are visible on‑chain, giving traders clear, verifiable insight into how the system behaves under all market conditions. “Our vision is simple,” said Adelene. “We want professional‑grade perpetuals and intelligent copytrading to live where they belong: on transparent, decentralised infrastructure, not in a black box. Launching FastX on 5 May is the first step. From here, we’ll continue to ship faster execution, smarter tooling, and AI‑enhanced copytrading that helps traders survive and thrive in 24/7 markets.” Traders can learn more and access the exchange at https://fastx.co. About GA Ventures Ltd GA Ventures Ltd, incorporated in the Cayman Islands, focuses on building decentralised financial infrastructure and tools for professional traders and sophisticated market participants. The company backs products that prioritise self‑custody, transparency, and robust risk management in rapidly evolving digital asset markets.

Sinch Mailgun Report: Companies are Leaving Email Performance on the Table ACN Newswire

Sinch Mailgun Report: Companies are Leaving Email Performance on the Table

SINGAPORE, Apr 23, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Sinch Mailgun, part of Sinch, has released its Email Impact Report 2026, introducing new industry benchmarks across 10 high-volume sending sectors and revealing a gap between email performance and execution.Based on insights from more than 400 billion emails sent in 2025 and a global survey of over 1,200 email senders, the report shows that while email remains a critical, high-performing channel, poor deliverability is leaving significant revenue on the table. Nearly 18% of emails fail to reach the inbox, putting up to a fifth of potential return on investment at risk for many organisations.78% of respondents say email is critical to business success. At the same time, the research highlights a growing disconnect between performance and execution, driven by gaps in measurement, deliverability practices and AI application.“APAC businesses rely heavily on email to drive sales, loyalty and customer experience but many are not set up to capture its full value,” said Ginger Kidd, Vice President Marketing & Communications APAC at Sinch. “What we see in this data reflects what’s happening locally: brands are investing in email and seeing strong returns, yet there is still a high number of messages that never reach inboxes. For instance, in a market as competitive and cost-conscious as Australia, marketers simply can’t afford for emails to get lost in inboxes. When budgets are under pressure, fixing deliverability is one of the fastest ways to unlock more value from the spend they already have.”AI adoption is widespread, but its impact remains uneven. Many teams focus on basic use cases such as content generation, while higher-impact applications such as optimisation, segmentation and deliverability remain underutilised. Organisations that use AI more effectively are significantly more likely to report improved email performance.Ginger Kidd said: "Across the diverse markets of APAC, we’re seeing a common theme: marketers are enthusiastically adopting AI, but the initial focus has primarily been on content creation. The true opportunity now lies in leveraging AI for smarter decision-making. For instance, who to send to, how often, and with what level of risk. This strategic shift is the key to ensuring every campaign improves performance, not just adds volume.“The most sophisticated teams are already using AI to predict which subscribers are at risk of disengaging, to fine-tune send times and to protect sender reputation. That’s where we’re seeing a real uplift in performance, not just faster content production.”Key findings of the report include:60% of companies measuring email ROI report returns above $10 for every $1 spentMore than 1 in 10 achieve returns as high as 40:146% say AI improves speed and efficiency41% of teams use AI to generate email content23% say AI has not improved their email programs49% report improved email performance year-over-year79% plan to maintain or increase investment in emailFewer than half of organisations can confidently measure email ROIAbout the reportThe Email Impact Report 2026 combines:Data from 400+ billion emails sent in 2025Insights from 1,200+ email senders globallyBenchmarks across 10 high-volume industriesRead more about the report here.About SinchSinch’s vision is to connect every business with every customer, everywhere in the world.

Datavault AI Further Expands IP Portfolio with New Patent Issuance and Notices of Allowance ACN Newswire

Datavault AI Further Expands IP Portfolio with New Patent Issuance and Notices of Allowance

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Apr 22, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a leader in AI-driven data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,596,819 and Notices of Allowance on two additional U.S. patent applications. This milestone builds directly on the Company's December 2025 issuance of two foundational patents for blockchain-driven content licensing and tokenized monetization - further expanding its robust intellectual property portfolio headlined by the industry-defining Carbon Credit Tokenization Patent.Key Highlights for InvestorsOne newly issued patent and two Notices of Allowance extend protection across three high-value platforms: AI-validated data valuation & monetization, tokenized virtual location funding, and automated tax return preparation for digital assets and DeFi-directly addressing 1099-DA compliance challenges.Reinforces the Company's Sumerian® Crypto Anchors, DataValue®, DataScore®, and Information Data Exchange® (IDE®) technologies with quantum-resistant encryption and blockchain immutability, underpinning a growing pipeline of tokenization contracts and licensing deals.Arrives as the first full IRS Form 1099-DA filing season closes amid reported operational hurdles-including late deliveries by Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini-demonstrating clear demand for Datavault AI's automated, tokenized tax solutions.Enabled use cases include tokenized commodities (copper, gold, precious metals), agricultural/genomic/healthcare data assets, NIL digital twins, funded virtual biotech marketplaces, and intelligent tax automation-integrating natively with the Company's edge GPU fleet and HPC infrastructure.Directly supports Datavault AI's 2026 revenue target of at least $200 million, accelerates commercialization across fintech, healthcare, biotech, energy, agriculture, sports & entertainment, and Web3, and opens new licensing and partnership opportunities.Scope of the Latest ProtectionsU.S. Patent No. 12,596,819 - "Method and System for Data Valuation and Secure Commercial Monetization Platform" (issued): Covers an end-to-end permissioned platform spanning opt-in data contribution, AI-driven automated valuation, blockchain-tokenized storage in the Datavault®, and trading on open exchanges with flexible compensation pathways (sales, licenses, rewards, charitable contributions).U.S. Patent Application No. 17/842,220 - "System and Method for Funding a Virtual Location" (Notice of Allowance): Protects the funding, authentication, and tokenized operation of organization-specific virtual locations, including multi-currency donations, integrated event and asset tokenization, portfolio-aligned advertising, and compensation mechanisms for data contributors.U.S. Patent Application No. 17/507,459 - "Platform and Method for Preparing a Tax Return" (Notice of Allowance): Covers automated tax return preparation for clients and employees, with specialized tokenized return handling for digital asset and DeFi activity, back-end form processing, and dynamic adjustment to evolving tax codes-precisely targeting the reconciliation burdens and visibility gaps plaguing the inaugural 1099-DA season.Market Context & TailwindsThe filings position Datavault AI at the convergence of three rapidly expanding markets. Tokenized real-world assets have already surpassed $30 billion in on-chain value (RWA.xyz 2025 data), with Boston Consulting Group and ADDX projecting the global market to exceed $16 trillion by 2030. The global data monetization market is forecast to grow from $7.53 billion in 2024 to $18.8 billion by 2033 (10.7% CAGR, SkyQuest Technology). The new tax-preparation patent arrives precisely as U.S. taxpayers navigate the first full season under the IRS Form 1099-DA digital asset broker reporting regime-where gross proceeds reporting began January 1, 2025, and basis reporting for certain transactions took effect January 1, 2026-amid well-documented industry friction around late broker filings and cross-wallet/chain/DeFi reconciliation.Investor Implications & Strategic OutlookCollectively, the issued patents and allowed applications extend IP coverage around innovations that transform raw data into tokenized, tradable assets and enable transparent funding, monetization, and automated tax handling of virtual environments and digital asset portfolios. These technologies are expected to integrate seamlessly with Datavault AI's anticipated edge GPU fleet and high-performance computing infrastructure, accelerating AI valuation processing and tokenization contract execution."Securing this issued patent and receiving Notices of Allowance on two additional applications validates our leadership in turning intangible data into verifiable, monetizable capital, and in enabling organizations to fund and operate virtual worlds with full transparency and user compensation," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Datavault AI. "These filings deepen our competitive moat and accelerate our path to capturing meaningful share in the data asset, real-world asset, and digital asset tax-preparation markets-directly fueling our $200 million 2026 revenue target and expanding pipeline of tokenization contracts."For additional insight into Datavault AI's growth strategy, commercialization roadmap, and long-term vision for unlocking value from data and intellectual property through tokenization and licensing, investors are encouraged to view the recent Nasdaq interview with CEO Nathaniel Bradley, hosted by Tech Edge and now available at https://vimeo.com/1176174810About Datavault AI Inc.Datavault AI™ (NASDAQ:DVLT) is a pioneer in AI-driven data experiences, valuation, and monetization of assets in the Web 3.0 environment.

Datavault AI 凭借新获颁专利及专利授权通知进一步扩展知识产权组合

宾夕法尼亚州费城, 2026年4月22日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - Datavault AI Inc.(“Datavault AI”或“公司”) (纳斯达克代码:DVLT),作为人工智能驱动的数据变现、资质认证、数字互动及现实世界资产(“RWA”)通证化技术的领导者,今日宣布获得美国专利第12,596,819号,并收到两项美国专利申请的准予通知。这一里程碑直接延续了公司于2025年12月获得的两项基础专利——区块链驱动的内容授权及代币化变现专利,进一步扩展了其强大的知识产权组合,其中以行业标杆性的碳信用代币化专利为代表。投资者关注要点一项新颁发的专利和两份准予通知书将保护范围扩展至三个高价值平台:AI验证的数据估值与变现、代币化虚拟位置融资,以及数字资产和DeFi的自动化纳税申报准备——直接解决了1099-DA合规挑战。通过抗量子加密和区块链不可篡改性,强化了公司的Sumerian®加密锚、DataValue®、DataScore®及信息数据交换®(IDE®)技术,为日益增长的代币化合约和授权协议提供了坚实支撑。该产品问世之际,正值首个完整的 IRS 1099-DA 申报季结束,此前据报道存在运营障碍——包括 Coinbase、Kraken 和 Gemini 的数据提交延迟——这充分证明了市场对 Datavault AI 自动化、代币化税务解决方案的明确需求。支持的应用场景包括代币化大宗商品(铜、黄金、贵金属)、农业/基因组/医疗数据资产、NIL数字孪生、资金支持的虚拟生物技术市场,以及智能税务自动化——这些功能可与公司的边缘GPU集群和HPC基础设施原生集成。该技术直接支撑Datavault AI实现2026年至少2亿美元营收的目标,加速其在金融科技、医疗保健、生物技术、能源、农业、体育娱乐及Web3领域的商业化进程,并开辟新的授权与合作机遇。最新专利保护范围美国专利号 12,596,819 - “数据估值与安全商业变现平台的方法及系统”(已授权):涵盖端到端的许可型平台,涵盖自愿数据贡献、AI驱动的自动化估值、在Datavault®中的区块链代币化存储,以及在开放交易所上的交易(支持销售、许可、奖励、慈善捐赠等多种灵活的补偿途径)。美国专利申请号 17/842,220 - “虚拟位置融资系统及方法”(准予通知):保护针对特定组织的虚拟位置的融资、认证及代币化运营,包括多币种捐赠、集成式活动与资产代币化、与投资组合匹配的广告,以及面向数据贡献者的补偿机制。美国专利申请号 17/507,459 - “报税准备平台及方法”(准予通知):涵盖为客户和员工提供的自动化报税准备服务,包含针对数字资产和DeFi活动的专用代币化报税处理、后端表单处理,以及对不断变化的税法进行的动态调整——精准解决困扰首个1099-DA申报季的对账负担和可见性缺口。市场背景与利好因素这些专利申请使 Datavault AI 处于三个快速扩张市场的交汇点。代币化的现实世界资产(RWA)的链上价值已超过 300 亿美元(RWA.xyz 2025 年数据),波士顿咨询集团(BCG)和 ADDX 预测,到 2030 年全球市场规模将超过 16 万亿美元。全球数据货币化市场预计将从2024年的75.3亿美元增长至2033年的188亿美元(年复合增长率10.7%,SkyQuest Technology)。这项新的税务申报专利恰逢美国纳税人正经历美国国税局(IRS)1099-DA表数字资产经纪商申报制度实施后的首个完整纳税年度——其中总收入申报自2025年1月1日开始,特定交易的成本基础申报将于2026年1月1日生效——而行业内关于经纪商申报延迟以及跨钱包/跨链/跨DeFi对账的摩擦问题已广受关注。对投资者的影响与战略展望总体而言,已获授权的专利和获准的专利申请扩展了知识产权的覆盖范围,涵盖了将原始数据转化为代币化、可交易资产的创新技术,并实现了虚拟环境及数字资产组合的透明融资、变现和自动化税务处理。预计这些技术将与 Datavault AI 计划部署的边缘 GPU 集群和高性能计算基础设施无缝集成,从而加速 AI 估值处理和代币化合约的执行。“获得这项已授权专利并收到另外两项申请的准予通知,印证了我们在将无形数据转化为可验证、可变现资本方面的领导地位,以及在帮助组织以完全透明且用户可获补偿的方式为虚拟世界提供资金并运营方面的优势,”Datavault AI创始人兼首席执行官纳撒尼尔·T·布拉德利(Nathaniel T.

China Gas Signs Strategic Cooperation Agreement with CITIC Construction and China CITIC Bank JCN Newswire

China Gas Signs Strategic Cooperation Agreement with CITIC Construction and China CITIC Bank

HONG KONG, Apr 22, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - China Gas Holdings Limited (“China Gas” or the “Group”; stock code: 384), a leading city gas operator in China, announced that it has entered into a strategic cooperation agreement with CITIC Construction Co., Ltd. (“CITIC Construction”) and China CITIC Bank Corporation Limited (“China CITIC Bank”). Based on the principles of “resource sharing, complementary strengths, shared benefits and mutual success”, the three parties will establish an integrated “industry-construction-finance” ecosystem-based collaborative model. This partnership aims to further support the development of China Gas’ new businesses, including energy storage and biomass energy, and jointly deepening engagement in global energy infrastructure and green low-carbon industries.China Gas, CITIC Construction and China CITIC Bank officially sign a tripartite strategic cooperation agreementThis collaboration represents an important step by all parties in actively responding to China’s “15th Five-Year Plan” and deepply participating in the Belt and Road Initiative. According to the agreement, the three parties will establish a comprehensive strategic partnership and conduct in-depth cooperation across various areas, including overseas energy infrastructure construction, joint development of third-party projects, industrial park businesses, green finance and various financing collaborations. They have adopted a closed-loop, ecosystem-based collaborative model: China Gas serves as the business model leader, responsible for project planning, technical solutions, and operations; CITIC Construction acts as the engineering and construction executor, leveraging its strengths in local resource coordination and construction management; China CITIC Bank, as the financial services provider, will meetinvestment and financing needs.To address global climate change and energy security challenges, the three parties will focus on the core areas, including: i) Prioritizing high-potential regions including Europe, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and North Asia to jointly promote the development and construction of energy infrastructure, ii) Integrating their resources around the industrial parks and new urbanization projects led and developed by China Gas at home and abroad, iii) Working together to implement the “green development” strategy and engage in in-depth collaboration in the areas of investment and financing.To capitalize on the opportunities presented by the global energy transition and the national “dualcarbon” goals, the Group is accelerating the development of two new growth drivers: its new energy business centered on energy storage and its biomass energy business. In the energy storage sector, the Group is seizing the strategic opportunities created by power market reforms and the development of a new power system, while continuing to deepen its market presence and optimize its layout, with a focus on “concentrating efforts in core regions and achieving key breakthroughs in overseas markets”. Meanwhile, the Group is actively expanding its biomass business and achieving growth across multiple fronts. It has previously entered cooperation agreements with several leading enterprises, including Deyi Energy (a subsidiary of Chery Automobile) and EVE Energy, as well as local governments, to jointly advance the construction of zero-carbon industrial parks and the clean upgrading of industries. This cooperation will further support the Group in expanding its domestic and overseas markets, focusing on the two new growth engines of “energy storage + biomass energy”, and promoting the Group’s healthy and sustainable development.Mr. LIU Ming Hui, Chairman and President of China Gas, said, “After more than two decades of development, China Gas has built a comprehensive business structure centered on natural gas, integrating LNG, LPG, biomass energy, and new energy technology. We are currently accelerating our globalization strategy and have formed a clear business footprint in regions such as Europe, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and North Asia. The signing of this tripartite agreement with CITIC Construction and China CITIC Bank marks our shift from simple overseas expansion to a cluster-based international strategy driven by industry leadership, empowered by engineering expertise, and finance support. Through close collaboration with our partners in finance and industry, we will leverage our stronger risk resilience and our industry chain advantages to contribute China Gas solutions to the sustainable development of global energy.”About China Gas Holdings LimitedChina Gas Holdings Limited ("China Gas", stock code: 384.

Kuala Lumpur, Apr 22, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) — CBL International Limited (NASDAQ: BANL) (“CBL” or the “Company”), a Nasdaq-listed marine fuel logistics and bunkering facilitator of Banle Group (“Banle” or “the Group”) focused on the Asia-Pacific region, today announced the acquisition of a 50.5% majority stake in Green Marine Energy Holdings Limited (“GMH”), a British Virgin Islands incorporated company. The transaction will be executed by CBL’s wholly-owned subsidiary, which has signed the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) as the buyer. To support the transaction, CBL will provide a corporate guarantee to the sellers, securing the payment obligations of its subsidiary.GMH operates two complementary businesses in Malaysia: feedstock trading for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and biofuels, and ship biofuel supply together with traditional bunkering services. The feedstock trading arm holds the necessary licenses to source and trade raw materials used in SAF and biofuel production, supported by an established network of suppliers and customers. Its bunkering operations include a license to supply both conventional bunker fuel and biofuels within Malaysian waters.This strategic investment aligns with growing global emphasis on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations and evolving regulatory requirements in the maritime and aviation sectors. CBL’s financial resources and operational expertise in marine fuel logistics are expected to support GMH’s expansion, complementing it to scale its feedstock trading activities and explore opportunities to supply SAF-related producers in Malaysia.Malaysia is seeing increased investment in sustainable fuel infrastructure, with new commercial-scale SAF production facilities opening and planned in the country. These developments further underscore the potential for feedstock demand in the region.In the bunkering segment, GMH’s license positions the combined group to develop traditional and biofuel bunkering supply capabilities at key Malaysian ports, including Port Klang—one of the world’s top ten ports by throughput. This builds on CBL’s existing bunkering facilitation services and supports the industry’s transition toward lower-carbon marine fuels.Dr. Teck Lim Chia, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CBL, commented: “This acquisition represents a measured step to broaden our presence in the sustainable energy supply chain while leveraging our core strengths in marine fuel services. We look forward to working with the GMH team to support the responsible growth of these businesses in line with market developments.”The transaction is expected to enhance CBL’s long-term positioning in the evolving marine and energy sectors without altering the Company’s primary focus on its established bunkering facilitation activities.About the Banle GroupCBL International Limited (Nasdaq: BANL) is the listing vehicle of Banle Group, a reputable marine fuel logistic company based in the Asia Pacific region that was established in 2015.
