As I am aware that stroke is the fourth leading cause of death in Hong Kong, I want to thank Beijing Tong Ren Tang for setting up in a solid foundation in the city to protect the community and health of its citizens by organizing activities which promote health as a response to spreading awareness for World Stroke Day. I hope the citizens of Hong Kong will focus more on their health.”
Mr Chen Fei, Executive Director of Beijing Tong Ren Tang Chinese Medicine Co., Ltd., also shared, “By bringing together a concise knowledge for stroke prevention, we can easily spread information to larger groups of people and eventually expand from high-risk and vulnerable people to inform young and healthy groups too .”
Following the opening ceremony, honoured guests headed towards an official tour of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Regimen and Culture Exhibition. The various exhibition zones offered different experiences related to TCM culture and practices. The interactive exhibition of “The 18 Broznemen Regimen Tournament” invited guests to take photos with Beijing Tong Ren Tang’s “Bronzy Boy” and create a Challenger Entry Commemorative Pass, while at Origins of Imperial Medicine, guests previewed a traditional Baizi Cabinet for an insight into the culture and history of TCM. Guests also learned the eight postures of “Baduanjin”, breathing exercises that help to regulate energy and blood flow as a daily prevention for stroke, with additional information on TCM acupoint massages. The tour ended with a group photo with a large-sized “Bronzy Boy” figure.

Come and open the Tong Ren “Baizi Cabinets” to get a glimpse of the subtleties of TCM.
The Bronzemen Challenges: At this stop, we will work hard to exercise our body and mind to enhance our cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health. Start with low-intensity Baduanjin, then massage your acupoints following the guidance of a Chinese medicine practitioner and do some simple neck exercises with a registered physiotherapist. The 18 “ultimate tricks” to prevent stroke can help promote blood circulation and improve blood vessel elasticity.
The Ridge of Battle: You have mastered the knowledge, and it is time for you to leave the academy and take this rare opportunity to challenge the “Tong Ren Tang Stroke Prevention Campaign 2023 – 18 Bronzemen Regimen Tournament” with “Bronzy Boy”. Before the battle, let’s take plenty of photos with the large-scale three-dimensional “Bronzy Boy” figure exclusively available at Ngong Ping Village for commemoration!

Let’s see if you have well received the positive messages conveyed by the “Tournament” and understood the theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine regimen so that you can live a healthy lifestyle by continue practicing it.
In line with the Traditional Chinese Medicine Regimen and Culture Exhibition on Ngong Ping 360 at Lantau Island and the brand’s long-standing motto of “Nurturing Kindness and Virtue. Preserving Tranquility and Wellness”, BTRT donated 1,669 Ngong Ping 360 Cable Return Tickets to different social welfare charities and organizations around Hong Kong to offer a complimentary trip exploring Ngong Ping. In addition, Beijing Tong Ren Tang BTRT will organize free health talk on stroke prevention and clinic visits for the elderly between October and November to promote stroke awareness. By welcoming participants from all walks of life, it encourages the public to adopt a more active lifestyle with better health management methods.
As the eighth consecutive year of “Stroke Prevention Campaign”, Beijing Tong Ren Tang continues to spread awareness for stroke prevention and share the brand’s spirit of “Nurturing Kindness and Virtue. Preserving Tranquility and Wellness”. According to the World Stroke Organization, one in six people will suffer from a stroke, while one dies from a stroke every six seconds. As an aggressive, rapidly evolving cerebrovascular disease, stroke can cause permanent brain damage and is the leading cause of disabilities worldwide. Long work hours, an unhealthy diet, and a lack of exercise are all potential risks of stroke. The Traditional Chinese Medicine Regimen and Culture Exhibition will hopefully help participants learn more about effective health and wellness methods via TCM and offer encouragement to implement TCM into daily practice and lead a healthier lifestyle.

Businesses reduce cloud security risks with latest addition to centralized platform
HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 24 October 2023 – Trend Micro (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global cybersecurity leader, today announced the next evolution of its cloud container security capabilities for its flagship platform. The latest addition to the platform delivers end-to-end protection, detection, and response to drive secure digital transformation.
The new capabilities simplify investigations by enabling analysts to prioritize incidents faster and with greater accuracy—reducing the time spent on each container security incident by up to two weeks.*
“Nothing is more important than reducing business risks, which we do through increasing the efficiency of our cyber threat detection capabilities” said Fernando Gadelha, head of cybersecurity at ZUP. “Honestly, containers are only a percentage of our efforts, but it is critical to be able to streamline any operations and manage them alongside our broader security efforts – Trend Micro makes that easiest. Big picture, that translates to less time spent on training and moving between screens, and more time and resources driving business transformation.”
Kevin Simzer, chief operating officer at Trend: “We see modern enterprises increasingly turning to containers to accelerate and scale development alongside evolving market demands—but these advances can lead to missing cloud visibility and new security vulnerabilities. Our platform empowers teams to protect and respond to threats in cloud container environments, using the exact same console and user interface they rely on for managing risks across the rest of the attack surface.”
The Trend Vision OneTM platform is designed to deliver comprehensive, cross-layer capabilities that eliminate the cost, security gaps, and administrative overhead associated with point solutions. Trend’s latest innovation in container security brings unparalleled visibility to the security operations center (SOC) to accelerate threat detection, response, and containment. Specialized cloud security teams will benefit from a tailored approach that protects containerized applications and enables organizations to leverage the full potential of cloud environments securely.
According to independent analyst firm Gartner, “Integrating previously isolated security capabilities simplifies security workflows and reduces the complexity associated with managing multiple tools, thus providing better visibility into the security landscape. A centralized platform allows for better coordination and communication between security and development teams, fostering collaboration and enabling incidents to be handled more efficiently.”**
Consolidated security: Centralizing container security within a unified platform streamlines security management while delivering unprecedented visibility through deep, correlated telemetry across more native security layers—including endpoint, server, workload, identity, email, and network. This consolidated approach enables security teams to identify threats earlier in the attack lifecycle leading to rapid and effective containment. A platform approach ensures security policies are consistently monitored and applied across the organization.
Optimized operational efficiency: Drastically reduces the time spent by SOC teams on container security operations, saving up to two weeks per incident. This efficiency improvement can free up resources for other critical tasks, enabling organizations to operate in the cloud with less risk.
Consistency across all cloud environments: Ensures seamless security management is in place across both Kubernetes clusters (multi-cloud and on-premises) and Amazon ECS by simplifying the management of security policies and minimizing the risk of potential security vulnerabilities.
Enhanced security: Proactively mitigates risk by searching for bugs in Amazon ECS and Kubernetes. Supports end-to-end protection that secures containers from build to termination, ensuring seamless security across the container lifecycle.
