Schneider Electric launches Easy9 Pro, a versatile, reliable and safe electrical distribution solution tailored for panel builders and contractors

RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 October 2024 – Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, today announced the launch of Easy9 Pro, the go-to product for small to medium commercial and residential building projects. The Easy9 Pro is a cost-effective, reliable, and versatile final distribution solution with unique features, tailored for both panel builders and contractors. Their compliance with international standards, compatibility with auxiliaries, and ability to cover multiple breaking capacity requirements make them a convenient and reliable choice for electrical installations. Furthermore, the Easy9 Pro complements Schneider Electric’s existing Easy series to have the full spectrum of electrical distribution solutions.

Designed with flexibility and reliability in mind
The Easy9 Pro is the latest range of final distribution products, part of the Easy9 family. It is designed to provide flexibility and cater to various projects and applications. Its dual-standard compliance makes it more convenient for residential and non-residential projects. The Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) under Easy9 Pro are compatible with basic auxiliaries, OF SD and Shunt, making them capable of handling a wide variety of applications. It is also flexible to connect with different types of bus bars, including pin and fork, making projects more accessible for all users. Selecting the appropriate electrical equipment range can be made simpler, especially for non-residential projects, as the Easy9 Pro offers a high level of reliability and safety parameters, as well as a friendly budget. The MCB from this range offers dependable performance even at a higher short circuit level, thanks to its highest claim of energy-limiting class 3.
Ease and efficiency in managing project cost and quality
To improve cost efficiency, Easy9 Pro MCBs are budget-friendly and versatile. This offering makes it easy to control project costs without compromising quality or functionality, benefiting panel builders, contractors, and end-users looking for reliable electrical components that meet industry standards.

New technologies in trading: A global overview from Octa Broker

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 October 2024 – Technology has changed financial markets a lot in recent years. It makes trading easier, faster, and more efficient. In this release, Octa looks at how technology is changing trading in Malaysia, Singapore and other countries in Southeast Asia. Also, Octa gives an overview of algorithmic trading, AI, blockchain, cryptocurrencies, Fintech, mobile apps, cloud tech, and big data analytics in trading. Octa Broker experts will dive in and discuss their usage globally and in regions in particular.

1. Algorithmic trading and artificial Intelligence
Algorithmic trading is a new way to buy and sell stocks. It uses special programs that can quickly process massive amounts of data and make trades faster than people. In the U.S., 70% of all stock market trades are done with algorithms. In London and Frankfurt, computers do most of the trading. AI (artificial intelligence) helps to predict market changes, as machine learning allows for better forecasts.

In big cities like New York and London, companies use AI to make trading better and more profitable. In Southeast Asia, more and more Fintech companies are also demonstrating interest in these technologies. However, AI is yet to become as popular there as in the West due to some issues with the regulations and a low number of people familiar with the technology. Still, the situation in Asia changes as the market gradually improves and people learn how to use AI. For example, AI is widely popular in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia, where new technologies are employed in finance systems to make trading faster. Kar Yong Ang, Octa Broker analyst, states: ‘Singapore is the finance centre of the region and leads in this. Malaysian companies use AI to make trading better. Indonesian companies also use algorithms. But the technology is not as good as in Western countries. The problem is infrastructure and rules’.
2. Blockchain and cryptocurrency
In America and Europe, there are many ongoing discussions about blockchain and cryptocurrency. Blockchain is a new way to conduct money transfers and contracts, making things clearer and safer. Big banks such as JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs use blockchain to improve their systems further. Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently in demand for trading and investing, and some European countries, like Switzerland and Malta, plan to integrate them into their money system. Naturally, such countries are considered well-suited for new blockchain-using companies. India intends to legitimise the use of cryptocurrencies by creating specific laws for their use in the future. Indian startups like Polygon and WazirX are essential for blockchain technology and crypto: Polygon, for instance, helps Ethereum grow and speed up. Blockchain also gets much attention in South and East Asia. Singapore, a significant financial centre, uses blockchain in its banking and trading. The Singapore government has some fresh ideas for crypto coins and plans to create conditions for crypto startups to grow. In other places like Vietnam and the Philippines, crypto is gaining popularity with investors: people from these countries are actively purchasing crypto coins and using platforms such as PDAX in the Philippines and TomoChain in Vietnam.
3. Fintech and mobile apps
In the U.S. and Europe, there have been many changes to people’s behaviour in the financial area. People can already trade and invest on their phones using designated apps. Companies like Robinhood and Revolut make it much easier to buy stocks and crypto—they have a simple interface and low fees. These apps also help traders and investors keep their current funds in sight and stay on top of what is happening in the market.
As one might expect, there’s also a need for such financial technologies and apps in South and Southeast Asia. Singapore and Malaysia are leading the way with new ways to look after money and trade it directly from a device. Singapore has great digital banks like Grab Financial Group and SeaBank from SeaGroup. The Malaysian bank has given digital banking licenses to Boost Holdings and RHB Bank: this country is diving into the world of digital finances. People in Indonesia and the Philippines also use mobile apps to monitor and manage their personal funds. Companies like Gojek and Grab are a bit more advanced regarding what users can do with their money, so people can get cash even when there are no actual banks around.
4. Cloud technologies and big data
Cloud technology is a huge factor in American and European banking: banks use it to store massive amounts of information on the cloud and analyse it. It allows them to change promptly with the market, responding to changes of tides in the industry. Big data is also quite important, as it helps to understand what exactly is happening in the market at the given moment. It allows banks to make better trades and provide quality customer service. Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure are two well-known companies that have specific solutions for storing information on the cloud. Banks in Southeast Asia are also using such solutions more and more often by the day, improving their financial services. With the help of these technologies, companies can save money on their infrastructure and apply new tools for analysis. Cloud storage and big data are invaluable for companies already making substantial money in the technological sphere as well as for newcomers. In Singapore and Malaysia, banks use cloud platforms for data. They can utilise the platforms to refine their working process and are already set for coming market changes. The same is true for banks in Indonesia and the Philippines: banks use cloud technology to improve their work and make better decisions.
Overall, new tech is already transforming the financial world globally. In developed countries like the U.S. and Europe, it’s already fair to say that finance is all about modern tech, while in emerging markets like Southeast Asia, people are still getting used to it.
Algorithmic trading and AI are taking off. They’re improving trades, making them faster and more accurate. Blockchain and crypto are opening up new ways to trade and invest as modern Fintech products and mobile apps make financial services more convenient for casual customers. Cloud tech and big data are also helping companies run better in this context, and countries in South and Southeast Asia are playing a major part in the development of financial technology globally. According to Kar Yong Ang, Octa Broker analyst, with more and more people interested in innovative solutions, and with improvements to the regulatory landscape, these regions are continuing to grow and adapt to meet the demands of today’s financial markets.

Free-visa Phu Quoc Island – A hotspot for MICE tourism
Visa exemption for all visitors, world-class infrastructure and a diverse range of recreational experiences are the key factors propelling Phu Quoc into the new spotlight for MICE tourism.
PHU QUOC, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 October 2024 – In Viet Nam, MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) tourists from travel companies account for an average of 15-20 per cent of total visitors. The number can reach up to 60 per cent at some large companies during peak months.

Amid this trend, Phu Quoc has recently risen as a new MICE tourism paradise thanks to special visa policy and an increasing number of attractive experiences and high-standard infrastructure.
Special visa policy
Phu Quoc is currently the only destination in Viet Nam with a special visa policy. Foreigners and Vietnamese holding foreign passports who enter, exit from, and reside in Phu Quoc Island are exempt from visas with a temporary stay period of up to 30 days.
This 30-day visa-free policy simplifies procedures for MICE groups, which often have large numbers of participants.
Thanks to this policy, many international flights operate in Phu Quoc, with frequent services from countries, including South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Mongolia.

High-end resort system
Visitors to Pearl Island can enjoy a fresh, sunny atmosphere year-round while discovering the idyllic paradise of islands and beaches.
Phu Quoc boasts some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, including Kem Beach and Sao Beach, with creamy white sand and crystal-clear waters. It also has smaller islands, including Hon Thom and Hon May Rut, offering pristine beauty and a rich diversity of marine and forest ecosystems.
With this natural advantage, resorts along wide sandy shores are key attractions for many MICE groups seeking luxury relaxation. These spaces also serve as ideal settings for team activities and memorable outdoor parties.
A prime example is JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay, known for successfully hosting MICE groups, including lavish Indian weddings, such as the globally renowned wedding of Rushang Shah and Kaabia Grewal.
New World Phu Quoc stands out with its villa-style accommodations, all featuring private pools, while Premier Residences Phu Quoc Emerald Bay offers 752 rooms at reasonable prices with five-star quality.
Notably, Phu Quoc’s luxurious restaurants and highly skilled chefs offer global cuisine, including vegetarian and Halal options.
Spacious conference facilities
Resorts in Phu Quoc are equipped with large conference rooms and halls, catering to a wide range of events.
In the heart of Sunset Town, opposite La Festa Phu Quoc – Curio Collection by Hilton, stands the Sun Signature Gallery convention centre, designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley.
Its highlight is the grand ballroom, which can accommodate up to 1,000 guests, featuring advanced technology and aesthetic appeal. The ballroom can host events in various formats, including classroom-style or workshops for up to 1,000 people, cocktail receptions for about 800 people, or seated dinners for 550-600 guests.
Additionally, the Sun Signature Gallery ballroom has cutting-edge lighting systems that allow 360-degree flexibility for dynamic lighting adjustments.
In late October, the Sun Paradise Land ecosystem in Phu Quoc will unveil the Sun Convention Centre that managed by New World, a new conference venue with a capacity of up to 1,000 guests.
Offering diverse experiences
MICE groups choose Phu Quoc for the reason of the wide range of top-tier entertainment and recreational activities.
For premium groups, Phu Quoc is a golfer’s paradise, with picturesque courses that attract enthusiasts. Notably, Eschuri Vung Bau offers a unique theme, taking players on a ‘forest to sea’ journey across 18 challenging holes. Kem Beach Driving Range is a perfect choice for beginners. The range features 18 lanes stretching 300 yards, equipped with an Auto Tee system, providing a comfortable and complete training experience.
Sun Paradise Land complex in southern Phu Quoc also offers an unparalleled entertainment experience.
Visitors can explore the Kiss Bridge, watch the Kiss of the Sea multimedia show, enjoy nightly fireworks displays, explore Vietnamese culture with the folk show at A Oi Theater and stroll through the seaside VUI-Fest bazaar.
At the end of the year, Sun Paradise Land will launch Symphony of the Sea show, which will feature a dynamic mix of Jetski and Flyboard performances, fireworks and Vietnamese cultural elements such as lion dance, festival drums… These outdoor shows, held in spacious venues, are perfectly suited for serving MICE groups.
Another must-do experience for any visitor to Phu Quoc is the journey on the world’s longest non-stop three-cable car to Hon Thom Island. This experience has been hailed as one of the most worthwhile in Phu Quoc by Lonely Planet, the world-renowned travel guide.
