Vast VPN Market Research Reveals that Nearly Half of Users Resort to VPN to Protect Privacy

Multiple Scenarios Facilitate VPN Compatible with Trending Applications Overwhelming Acclaim Received in Indonesian

JAKARTA, INDONESIA Media OutReach13 June 2022 – The Vast VPN (“the Product”) research department is pleased to release its self-managed market opinion poll results targeting the VPN usage scenarios. Data suggests that about 47% of users mainly seek assistance from VPNs to protect privacy when visiting websites anonymously and to prevent their online behaviors from being tracked and monitored by spyware, thanks to their anti-malware and ad-blocking features. Around 37% of users deem that Vast VPN is exceptionally supportive in accelerating their networks while playing video games or watching streaming content. The third-ranked case, accounting for 26%, is to safely view some sites of explicit content or thread between disparate internet exclusion zones with the personal IP address sheltered. The statistics indicate that how VPNs appeal to their respective audiences varies widely depending on the user preference.

The first-class unlimited free VPN

When Vast VPN conducted this research, it was found that most VPN users have ever encountered this situation: after downloading a VPN software, only very few nodes are offered for free, and the network connection is prolonged and laggy, even could be dropped the line forcefully due to the unstable network environment, the user experience is very unpleased. Vast VPN has carried out a comprehensive technical upgrade and adjustment in response to this situation, providing all users with more than ten free nodes covering North America, Asia, Europe, etc., to meet their diverse demands greatly. But what would be the cherry on the top of the cake is that all these superior services are offered for unlimited free (click for more details).

For video software users, they can flexibly switch IP addresses at any time to break through network restrictions to watch popular videos from other countries.

Guarding users’ privacy in the manner of all-round

Since cybersecurity risks and user privacy issues have also observably risen over the mass market and been mooted in people’s daily life, VPN gets to render a tried role in coping with people’s daily surfing security demands. Vast VPN can protect users’ entire online activity, especially personal data, against hackers and vandals on public networks by virtue of superior encryption technology. Vast VPN commits to carrying out “no-logs” protocols without collecting or “logging” any confidential information transmitted through its servers. It would never store users’ browsing or download history so as to reassure them of a relieved and risk-free usage experience.

JustGo Launched First-Of-Its-Kind Tipper Truck Booking App in Singapore

SINGAPORE Media OutReach – 13 June 2022 – After months of product development and beta testing, local on-demand logistics platform JustGo Singapore announced that it has officially launched its tipper truck booking app in Singapore.

Founded in 2021, JustGo’s vision is to transform the construction industry by adopting new technologies, overcoming the stigma that the industry is failing to keep up with technological advances. With the launch of its app, JustGo hopes to improve the sector’s efficiency and solve problems through technology.

There are two types of apps available – a Merchant App and a Driver App, each serving their respective purposes.

To encourage digital adoption within the construction industry, the JustGo app creates an efficient online marketplace to connect construction companies with trusted suppliers.

The Merchant App allows businesses looking for tipper truck services and construction companies seeking to rent a tipper truck with driver in Singapore to connect. Users can create job postings for organisations that are able to provide tipper truck driver services that precisely match their demands and budget within the user-friendly booking app.

On the other hand, the Driver App allows tipper truck providers and construction companies that own tipper trucks in Singapore to offer their services to organisations that need them. Through the app, companies and individuals can offer and accept tipper truck driver jobs in Singapore.

With the app, JustGo Enterprise hopes to reduce the cost for construction companies as they will no longer be restricted to prices quoted by a single supplier. They do not need to buy additional trucks either if renting is more cost-effective.

On top of that, JustGo aims to create a materials marketplace for the industry, to allow the reuse and recycling of materials such as hardcore and soil. This will greatly improve the productivity of JustGo’s users, as it will reduce their cost, and ensure minimal wastage of these materials. Moreover, with the JustGo app, it addresses the lack of such a platform in the industry to offer and request for materials and/or tipper truck services, contributing greatly to the progress of the industry.

JustGo Merchant App and JustGo Driver App are now available for download on both App Store and Google Play Store.

Online Rich Introduces a New e-Business Scheme To Help Users Tap into the E.U and U.S. Markets

COVID-19 Pandemic and Mass Migration Wave Triggers Surge in Business Start-ups

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 13 June 2022 – The fifth wave of Covid-19 has swept Hong Kong, the unemployment rate climbed to a ten-month high of 5.4 per cent, and more than 200,000 people were out of work. The livelihood consumption and tourism-related sectors have been severely affected, especially the retail, accommodation, and food services industries. The overall economic situation in Hong Kong is deteriorating. Given this, numerous Hongkongers have been exploring new opportunities to stay resilient in this “epidemic” environment. Many have started their businesses and opened online stores to seek a way out.

The

The “One-stop E-commerce Undertaking System” of Online Rich, the best e-commerce launcher platform

However, as a novice in starting a business, it could be formidable to run an online store. From purchasing supplies, building a website, and expanding customer sources, to order processing, shipping, and after-sales services, the workflow is complicated and trivial. It requires a considerable investment in time, workforce, and operating costs, which discourages many business starters.

Online Rich new e-commerce operation model to help new business starters to perch a firm foothold

To help e-commerce practitioners solve their operational problems as well as provide comprehensive and quality support for the newbies, Online Rich (“the Company”) has custom-made a “One-stop E-commerce Undertaking System”. The system equips all the “e-commerce novices” with express yet integrated services and comprehensive yet flexible support to help them lower risk and reduce cost while improving operational efficiency significantly. With the help of Online Rich’s native and international executive team, start-ups can tailor-made indigenous content on social media and other e-commerce platforms, which could greatly boost the success rate of starting an online business.

Online Rich searches and selects a wide range of hot-selling products at cost prices for users. Users can initiate their e-commerce operations from scratch even if they do not have any experience. After browsing the hot-selling products with decent margins on the supplier’s pages, users can select what they want and establish their e-stores by automatically uploading product information on their platforms to sell. Online Rich provides strategic marketing consultancy and artwork assistance throughout the process. Once receiving orders, the store owner can utilize the integrated automatic delivery and distribution feature of Online Rich to ship goods, collect a payment, and recognize a profit. Distinguished from other online store outlets only providing tutorial videos, Online Rich offers 24-hour live customer service to follow up the whole course, cope with any questions, and strive to stay close to the users, interlock to assist them in completing the main sections of the e-commerce platform construction.

Within four years, it has successfully helped more than 536 startups establish their e-stores internationally. More than 289 among them have successfully evolved into self-contained brands, accounting for total sales exceeding US$80 million.

Mr. Darek, a restaurant manager who turned into an online shop owner, shared, “Due to the epidemic, my restaurant was mired in stagnation, so I had to leave that trade and try to start the e-commerce practice. At first, I didn’t know anything about e-commerce, thanks to Online Rich’s new automatic sales system combining product selection, sales, customer service, and so on, which functionally simplifies those conventional and cumbersome management procedures. I can use the Online Rich App to monitor real-time sales and profits at any time. After opening my online store for three months, my monthly sales have reached almost US$40,000.”

Ms. Katherine, who worked in the tourism industry before the epidemic, said she was hesitant before deciding to use Online Rich, as there are many so-called e-commerce startup platforms out there that rely on ‘click farming’ to commit fraud on newcomers who want to start an online business. She said, “I did much research before ending up with Online Rich. Its parent company is a leading e-commerce solution provider in Asia with a good reputation, so I feel comfortable using it. Online Rich’s procurement, website design, marketing, logistics, sales, customer service, and even the technical team are very professional; it highly fits someone with zero experience starting their e-business just like me”. After setting up for two months, Katherine’s online store has been on the right track, with monthly sales amounting to US$35,000.

Breaking boundaries to expand into the European and U.S. markets; An ideal choice for Immigrant Business Owners

Many Hong Kong people have moved to other places in recent years. The figures of the Hong Kong Immigration Department showed a net outflow of more than 140,000 Hong Kong residents in the first quarter of 2022. Various investigations revealed that many immigrated Hong Kong people are not able to cope with the rising cost of living and fail to secure a job in places. Usually, their professional skills grasped in Hong Kong cannot be fully employed.

The competitive edges of Online Rich include breaking through the geographical, time, and language restrictions with low cost and burden-free. Users can make a living promptly after moving to a new environment and ensure a certain source of income.

Laos Participates in UN General Assembly on HIV/AIDS

Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Permanent Representative of the Lao PDR , Mr. Anouparb Vongnorkeo.

The United Nations General Assembly convened the Plenary Meeting on the Implementation of the Declaration of Commitment yesterday on HIV/AIDS and the Political Declarations on HIV/AIDS, which were adopted by the General Assembly on June 8.

This Meeting provided a timely global review on the fight against HIV/AIDS and the progress towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Goal 3 on “Good Health and Well-being,” ensuring that the world gets back on track to end HIV/AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.

At the opening session, the President of the 76th Session of the General Assembly inaugurated the meeting. This was followed by the General Debate, presided over by Ambassador and Permanent Representative of the Lao PDR to the United Nations. Several UN member states took turns delivering their statements on behalf of regional groups by highlighting the importance of enhancing international cooperation to support the global efforts to achieve health-related goals, including the 2030 target for ending the AIDS epidemic.

The Assembly acknowledged that a financing gap for addressing HIV/AIDS still exists and there is a need to further promote technology transfer, improve access to medicines in developing countries and to scale up capacity-building, research and development.

Despite some progress, the data released by the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) has shown that HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths are not declining fast enough to end the pandemic by 2030.

Against this backdrop, the international community reaffirmed its joint commitment and common responsibility in taking actions against HIV/AIDS to fully implement the commitments contained in the UN Declaration.

The most urgent tasks are to develop an HIV/AIDS vaccine, to provide appropriate medical treatments for all and to increase investment in research and development, science and innovation.

Shared responsibility and solidarity among all nations is more crucial than ever in order to increase and equally allocate resources to scale up universal health coverage. Every year, the United Nations has designated 1 December in commemoration of World AIDS Day.
