Airport Dimensions opens new lounge proposition in Makassar, Indonesia, breaking new ground in partnership with Blue Sky Lounge

MAKASSAR, Indonesia, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In conjunction with partner Blue Sky Lounge, Airport Dimensions has unveiled its newest lounge Blue Sky Premier Lounge at Makassar Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport in Indonesia. The opening of this new lounge marks the first milestone following a strategic investment in Blue Sky Group’s subsidiary PT Bumi Liputan Angkasa, announced in March. This expansion into Indonesia sees Airport Dimensions bringing its world-class expertise and market-leading capabilities to a new region. It joins a network of over 80 airport lounges and experiences, further enhancing airport hospitality offerings and elevating the overall passenger experience worldwide. As the 17th lounge in its growing Asia-Pacific network, this opening reflects the accelerating demand for premium airport services in high-growth markets and the company’s ongoing strategic expansion across the region.

Blue Sky Premier Lounge Makassar responds to the rise in passenger traffic at Makassar Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport, now exceeding one million travellers per month, and the city’s rapid emergence as a dynamic metropolitan hub in Eastern Indonesia. Designed with both comfort and sophistication in mind, the space reflects Makassar’s growing status as a centre of air travel, business, and tourism.

Located within the domestic terminal of Makassar Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport and with a prime position next to security and only minutes from the gate, the lounge offers comfort and convenience at the heart of the terminal. With 500 square meters of space and seating for up to 137 guests, passengers can relax in a thoughtfully designed space that combines sleek modern style with authentic regional character.

Blue Sky Premier Lounge Makassar is purposefully designed to showcase the essence of local culture and identity. Rooted in Indonesia’s rich heritage, the lounge features locally crafted Batik motifs, design elements that echo Makassar’s history as a coastal port city and was brought to life in close collaboration with local suppliers from concept to construction.

The menu, crafted with extensive market knowledge, features locally inspired dishes made from locally sourced ingredients. Food-loving travellers can look forward to all-you-can-eat buffet-style dining, featuring Blue Sky’s much-loved signature Mantau recipe. Each day, a rotating selection of regional favourites will be on offer, including Coto Makassar, Pisang Ijo, I-ta Suki’s steamboat specialty noodles and other local delicacies. A variety of live-cooked dishes that bring culinary experience to life are also available throughout the day. A dedicated coffee corner invites coffee enthusiasts to enjoy Ippolito, Blue Sky’s signature in-house coffee brand, locally roasted and widely celebrated for its rich flavour. Guests can also enjoy a selection of cold-pressed juices from the Healthy Corner, unlimited Le Minerale premium water and soft drinks.

With a thoughtfully designed end-to-end service, the lounge redefines the traditional airport experience, offering comfort and care that begins well before guests step inside the lounge. From dedicated ambassadors positioned throughout the terminal to assist with check-in to a seamless buggy service transporting guests from lounge to gate at the Drop Zone, every element of the lounge has been curated to elevate convenience and deliver an integrated travel experience that feels both effortless and exceptional.

For guests needing to catch up on work before their flight, the lounge offers two dedicated productivity zones equipped with high-speed WiFi to keep travellers connected. Those looking to freshen up can take advantage of well-appointed showers and restrooms.

A key highlight is the VIP private rooms, which provide an elevated level of privacy and comfort, complete with plush seating and refreshments for an additional fee. To accommodate the diverse needs of travellers, the lounge also features separate prayer rooms for men and women, offering a quiet space for reflection and worship. For families traveling with young children, a nursery room is also available, offering a comfortable and private space for families.

The lounge also includes a spacious dedicated smoking wing with Honeywell air purification systems ensuring air quality remains uncompromised throughout the lounge.

Errol McGlothan, President of Airport Dimensions, EMEA & APAC commented: “The launch of the Blue Sky Premier Lounge underscores Airport Dimensions’ commitment to expanding our footprint across Asia-Pacific and applying our global expertise to deliver premium travel experiences in one of the world’s fastest-growing aviation markets. This opening represents not just the expansion of our lounge network, but the strength of collaboration between two industry leaders.

Together, we’ve developed a space that meets the rising demand for tourism and premium travel in Indonesia, while setting a new standard for airport lounges in the region. We look forward to our partnership with Blue Sky going from strength to strength, as demonstrated by this exciting launch.”

Comment from Linan Kurniahu, CEO of Blue Sky Group: “We are excited to partner with Airport Dimensions to open the Blue Sky Premier Lounge at Makassar Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport. This lounge combines world-class comfort with local culture, offering travellers a premium experience in one of Indonesia’s fastest-growing cities.

At Blue Sky Group, we are committed to enhancing airport hospitality and supporting Indonesia’s growing travel industry. We look forward to welcoming guests and continuing to raise the standard of airport lounges across the country.”

TSH Biopharm Honored for Social Empowerment and Green Leadership at the Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards 2025

BANGKOK, Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — TSH Biopharm Corporation Ltd. has been recognized with dual honors at the Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards 2025, receiving accolades for the Green Leadership and Social Empowerment categories. The awards reflect the company’s growing influence as a purpose-driven pharmaceutical firm that integrates sustainability and human well-being into its corporate DNA.

TSH Biopharm’s Green Leadership accolade celebrates its signature initiative, “Sowing with Heart,” which redefines the connection between health and the environment. In a pioneering effort, the company partnered with organic farmers in Miaoli’s Formosan leopard cat conservation area, supporting pesticide-free rice cultivation. The harvested rice is transformed into thoughtfully crafted gift sets—ranging from fermented rice beverages to eco-friendly soap products—whose proceeds are donated in full to elder care organizations. By uniting biodiversity protection, local farming, and public health, TSH Biopharm demonstrates that environmental stewardship can be deeply human at its core.

Equally impactful is the company’s award-winning “Empowered Journeys” initiative, which earned it recognition for Social Empowerment. Launched in collaboration with the Old Five Old Foundation, the program operates mobile grocery trucks that serve isolated seniors in Taiwan’s rural regions. Unlike traditional charity models, this service restores autonomy by allowing elders to choose their own supplies. With TSH Biopharm employees volunteering as delivery companions, the initiative extends beyond material support, offering emotional connection and dignity to the elderly—an approach that reshapes how businesses engage with aging populations.

The success of both programs highlights TSH Biopharm’s long-standing commitment to values-driven leadership. Its environmental project rejuvenates fallow land and raises public awareness about endangered species, while its social initiative brings healthcare philosophy into daily life, affirming that true wellness can flourish with community support.

As TSH Biopharm continues to evolve, it remains steadfast in its mission: to build a future where healthcare is not only about treatment, but also about creating harmony between people and the planet.

“Hidden Hands” Cave in Laos Reveals Prehistoric Art

In the central Khammouane Province, a cave known locally as Tham Pha Mue, “Hidden Hands”, has turned out to be one of the most important prehistoric discoveries in Laos. 

A recent report by National Geographic highlights just how remarkable this site is: over 200 ancient rock paintings, including handprints, animals, and mysterious symbols, some placed so high up that the people who made them must have used scaffolding.

The cave was first found in the 1990s by a hunter from Baan Khoun Ngeun, who was chasing mountain goats. But it wasn’t until 2024 that an international team of archaeologists formally studied the site. Since then, it’s become clear that Tham Pha Mue is one of the richest rock art sites in the country, and possibly in all of mainland Southeast Asia.

Many of the paintings are red or orange, made with natural pigments. The most common images are hand stencils, some with shortened fingers, others tiny enough to be from children. There are also stick-like human figures, animals (especially what looks like mountain goats), and geometric shapes like zigzags and dots.

Some of the handprints are placed over 14 meters above the ground, meaning the artists likely climbed or built something to reach those spots. 

One unique image shows a closed fist, something never seen before in rock art from this region, and another shows a hand wearing what might be a bracelet. These little details suggest the art meant something deeper than just decoration.

What’s also interesting is how similar some of these paintings are to rock art in Thailand and Malaysia. It points to the idea that prehistoric communities across Southeast Asia may have shared certain styles or symbols, even if they never met face to face.

So far, scientists haven’t been able to date the paintings exactly, but they’re planning to use a technique called uranium-series dating, which measures mineral deposits that formed over the paintings. 

If it works, it could finally give us solid dates for when the art was made, something that’s been missing from mainland Southeast Asia until now.

The cave isn’t just a prehistoric site, though. A modern image of a white Buddha was added around 2012 by local villagers, showing that the space still holds spiritual meaning today, just as it likely did thousands of years ago.

The project is being led by experts from Laos, Spain, and France, and includes community involvement from nearby villages. Locals have been trained to help protect the site, and there are early talks about controlled, small-scale tourism in the future.

Immersive Store Design Featuring Art, Displays, and Activations

Rooted in TUMI’s commitment to purposeful, performance-driven innovation, each element of the flagship’s immersive design—from the sculptural façade to curved LED screens and evocative Journey art installation—seamlessly blends the brand’s signature minimalist luxury with modern architectural aesthetics.

Echoing the sculptural elegance of 19 Degree, the flagship’s bold exterior greets visitors with a cascading metallic panel façade defined by fluid contours. This striking design detail is a nod to the collection’s signature curvature and reflects the brand’s commitment to thoughtful craftsmanship—starting from the outside in. Conveying effortless elegance in motion, refined scenario-based displays showcase the full range of TUMI men’s, women’s and travel accessories throughout thoughtfully designed spaces. A distinctive open-concept VIP area presents meticulously curated premium travel and luggage offerings, while clients can visit the interactive materials wall to experience TUMI’s innovations in cutting-edge design material technology firsthand.

Unique to the Shanghai flagship is a dedicated art installation space that bridges TUMI’s design philosophy and local artisan culture. Rooted in respect for material integrity and purposeful craftsmanship, the debut work, Journey, was created from bamboo by renowned contemporary artist Xu Fei. Exploring the intersection of movement, intention, and form, Journey draws on the ancient Chinese cosmological concept of ’round heaven and square earth’—a balance of fluidity and grounding that echoes TUMI’s approach to design. The installation embodies the brand’s belief that travel is not just about where you’re going, but how you move through the world—with clarity, resilience, and meaning.
