CoolWallet Strengthens Security with Enhanced Transaction Confirmation

TAIPEI, March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Recent cyberattacks targeting multisig wallets have highlighted critical security gaps. Hackers have exploited transaction manipulation techniques, deceiving users into approving unauthorized transfers, leading to substantial asset losses. These incidents emphasize the urgent need for robust transaction verification mechanisms.

To address this, CoolWallet by CoolBitX has introduced Transaction Confirmation Simulation, a new feature available for CoolWallet Pro, CoolWallet S, and CoolWallet HOT users. This function enables users to preview full on-chain asset movements before signing a transaction, reducing risks associated with fraudulent transactions.

  • Anomaly Detection – Identifies discrepancies between expected and actual transactions, alerting users to potential threats.
  • Real-Time Alerts – Sends notifications for suspicious activity before users finalize approvals.

This enhancement significantly reduces the risks associated with blind signing. Hackers often manipulate smart contracts or user interfaces to trick signers into unknowingly authorizing malicious transactions. With CoolWallet’s improved transaction preview, users can thoroughly verify details before confirming, ensuring secure asset management.

Smart Scan Technology: An Additional Security Layer

Beyond transaction verification, CoolWallet has integrated Smart Scan technology in partnership with Blockaid to further strengthen security:

  • Detects phishing attempts and malicious smart contracts in real time.
  • Analyzes transaction risks and provides immediate alerts on potential threats.
  • Seamlessly integrates with DeFi and Web3 applications for enhanced protection.

Strengthening Blockchain Security Standards

While these security upgrades provide advanced protection, users must also adopt strong security habits. CoolWallet recommends:

  • Using a hardware wallet for storing high-value crypto assets.
  • Enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) to secure exchange accounts.
  • Keeping security tools updated and staying informed about emerging threats.

Singapore’s Female Entrepreneurs Find Global Success on Amazon


SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 7 March 2025 – Every year hundreds of entrepreneurs are launching their brands on Amazon to reach millions of customers in North America and beyond.

Ahead of International Women’s Day, read the inspiring stories of Singapore female entrepreneurs and innovators who are making their mark globally on Amazon through products such as dog toys, health foods, baby essentials, and lifestyle homeware.

Singapore's Female Entrepreneurs Find Global Success on Amazon


1) Ruth, Founder of Race&Herd

After several years in the corporate world, Ruth realised that something was missing in her life—a deeper sense of purpose. Driven by her lifelong love for dogs, Ruth founded Race&Herd in 2020, using her expertise as a certified dog behaviour expert to create science-backed toys for dogs that require high physical and mental stimulation.

When Ruth saw her dog Dinky’s enthusiastic response to a horse ball, she identified an untapped market opportunity. “Race&Herd recognised what other brands had overlooked—dogs have natural herding instincts that traditional toys weren’t addressing. This insight led to the creation of our signature herding ball, establishing Race&Herd as the pioneer in this innovative product category.”

With a vision to make Race&Herd a global brand, Ruth launched her business through Amazon Global Selling. As demand for Race&Herd products continues to grow today, Ruth has expanded her reach to more markets in Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Mexico.

“Seeing my ideas transform into products that make dogs happy is the most rewarding part of what I do. There’s nothing quite like watching your vision materialise and knowing it’s making a positive difference by bringing people and their pet closer together.”

Ruth’s advice for aspiring entrepreneurs: “Keep your passion alive! While competition can be fierce, stay connected to what excites you and keep innovating—because innovation is what keeps you ahead of the competition.”

2) Yvon, CEO and Founder, Hegen

For Yvon, the journey to entrepreneurship has been driven by a strong will to make a positive impact on mothers and their experience with breastfeeding.

Yvon’s vision birthed the now-iconic “Sqround” (square-round) bottle —an innovative design without screw thread, making it easier for babies to hold, and to simplify stacking and storage for mothers. “Initially questioned by the industry, the “Sqround” bottle, featuring the award-winning Press-To-Close, Twist-To-Open™ (PCTO™) innovation, redefined convenience with its effortless one-hand closure. Our no screw-thread Press-To-Close, Twist-To-Open™ innovation set Hegen apart and helped make us a leader in innovation in the mother and baby industry,” says Yvon.

As a woman navigating a traditionally male-dominated baby care industry, Yvon says she faced the challenge of making her voice heard, and had to break barriers with resilience and unwavering determination. “Each obstacle became an opportunity to challenge limitations and push boundaries, not just for myself but for other women in business.”

Yvon’s advice to aspiring entrepreneurs: “Dream big and never limit what you can achieve! When we allow ourselves to dream boldly, we can unlock possibilities that we never thought were possible.”

In 2016, Hegen began selling in the Amazon US store (Amazon.com) and has since expanded to Amazon.sg after finding success in the U.S. Becoming an Amazon seller has opened the brand to marketing and selling globally — allowing Hegen to reach mothers around the world easily.

3) Ann and Christina, Co-Founders, Nook Theory

In 2020, during the pandemic, home became the center of everything—work, leisure, family, personal and social life. Ann and Christina, best friends turned business partners, saw an opportunity to bring more warmth and comfort into homes everywhere. They founded Nook Theory, a lifestyle brand offering everyday living items – such as their best-selling Better Days insulated bags, eco-friendly bamboo plates and reusable multi-pockets shopping bags) – designed to seamlessly blend function, style, and sustainability. Nook Theory is now a thriving home and lifestyle brand in the Amazon store, reaching customers across the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

When asked about the challenges of being women entrepreneurs, Ann replies: “Entrepreneurship is a constant balancing act of highs and lows. When challenges arise, don’t let them weigh you down. Always remember your strength and your ‘why’ [you are doing this], and let them be the driving force to turn setbacks into comebacks”

Ann and Christina’s advice to entrepreneurs: “When launching a business, it’s easy for entrepreneurs to fall into the trap of overthinking— getting stuck in analysis paralysis and never taking the first step,” Christina shares. “Research and risk analysis are important but the key is to act quickly because the market can shift. Don’t overthink —just take that first step!”

4) Riyana, Founder, Everiday Foods

Riyana’s journey began with a passion for holistic health, born from her own struggles: a demanding job in finance and a host of health issues which forced her to re-evaluate her lifestyle.

Earning her certification as a Holistic Nutritionist (NTP) and recognising her clients’ desire for healthy yet authentic Asian pantry staples, Riyana launched Everiday Foods on Amazon in 2023. Leveraging Amazon Global Selling, she expanded from her Singapore kitchen to the U.S., meeting an overseas demand for unique Asian flavours such as gluten-free and vegan chili sauces and sambals.

When asked about the challenges of being a woman in business, Riyana replies: “Honestly, being a woman has been an advantage in many ways. The entrepreneurial community—especially in the food and wellness space—has been incredibly supportive and I’ve found that women-led businesses often attract a loyal, engaged customer base.”

Riyana said her challenges came from being a solopreneur having to build a business from the ground up: “I had to wear many hats, from product development to operations to marketing, which can be overwhelming. Learning to delegate and build the right support system has been key to overcoming these hurdles.”

“I also doubted if I could compete with bigger brands. Overtime, I learned that authenticity and building a strong brand identity matters more than size. Leveraging my expertise in nutrition and creating products I truly believe in helped me push through those doubts.”

Riyana’s advice to aspiring women entrepreneurs: “Start before you feel ready. Build a strong network, know your numbers, and trust your unique approach — that’s your strength.”

LEADING WITH HEART – The Women of PHKL Shaping the Future of Healthcare

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, March 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Healthcare is more than science—it is compassion, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to healing. Behind every life saved and every family given hope, there are extraordinary individuals who dedicate themselves to the well-being of others. This International Women’s Day, Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur (PHKL) honours the women who do just that—exceptional doctors who not only break barriers in medicine but also touch lives in ways beyond measure.

From left to right: Dr Siti Laura, Dr Poongkodi Nagappan, and Dr Nur Fadlina.
From left to right: Dr Siti Laura, Dr Poongkodi Nagappan, and Dr Nur Fadlina.

From mending the tiniest hearts to pioneering advancements in cancer care, these women are more than just doctors; they are healers, mentors, and changemakers. Their hands have held those in pain, their voices have comforted the fearful, and their expertise has brought light to the darkest moments. Beyond individual patient care, their contributions are shaping a more sustainable healthcare system—one that ensures quality treatment is not just a privilege, but a right for future generations.

Yet, the path for women in medicine has not always been easy. In a field where leadership was historically male-dominated, these doctors have defied the odds—not just by excelling in their fields but by inspiring future generations to dream bigger. Their work extends beyond hospital walls, shaping policies, mentoring young doctors, and advocating for better healthcare access for all. By leading advancements in medical education, research, and access to care, they are ensuring a healthcare system that is not only effective today but sustainable for years to come.

Their journeys remind us that the best doctors are not just skilled practitioners—they are those who lead with heart, who uplift others, and who redefine what it means to care.

Dr Siti Laura, Consultant Paediatric Cardiothoracic Surgeon

Mending Tiny Hearts, Giving Life a Second Beat

A child’s heartbeat is a powerful symbol of life, yet for many born with congenital heart conditions, it’s also a fragile one. Dr Siti Laura has dedicated her career to giving these children a fighting chance, proving that even the smallest hearts deserve the biggest care.

Her journey began at Institut Jantung Negara (IJN) in 2004, where she spent 14 years performing life-changing surgeries on young patients. Driven by an unwavering commitment to excellence, she pursued further training at Birmingham Children’s Hospital in the UK, completing a Fellowship in Paediatric Cardiothoracic Surgery. This experience not only honed her surgical skills but also deepened her understanding of the profound impact her work has on families.

In 2020, Dr Siti Laura played a pivotal role in establishing the Paediatric Cardiothoracic Service at Serdang Hospital, a groundbreaking initiative that ensured underprivileged children had access to life-saving care. Today, as a Consultant at PHKL, she continues to restore not just tiny hearts, but the hopes and dreams of countless families. Her work is a testament to the power of expertise, compassion, and perseverance.

“That moment when you see the difference you can make in a child’s life—giving them the chance to play, run, and laugh with no care in the world—it’s indescribable,” she shares. “Paediatric heart surgery is more than just a procedure; it’s a responsibility to give children the fighting chance they deserve. With every tiny heart I help mend, I am giving a second chance at a new life.”

Dr Poongkodi Nagappan, Consultant Urologist

Breaking Barriers in Urology: Championing Women’s & Children’s Health

When it comes to urology, there’s a common misconception that it’s a medical speciality exclusively for men. This belief likely stems from the fact that urologists often treat conditions more commonly associated with men, such as prostate issues, erectile dysfunction, and male infertility. However, urology is a broad field that deals with the urinary tract and reproductive systems in both men and women, as well as certain conditions in children. It’s a speciality that touches lives across all genders and ages, yet women’s urological health often remains overlooked or misunderstood.

At PHKL, Dr Poongkodi is on a mission to change that narrative. As one of only two NSR-certified female urologists in Malaysia, she brings a unique perspective and a deep understanding of women’s and children’s urological health. Her journey in urology began in 2009, where she gained hands-on experience across multiple hospitals before earning her Malaysian Board of Urology certification and FRCS (Urol) (Glasg) in 2012. Driven by a passion to serve the underserved, she further specialised in Paediatric Urology in the UK, bringing invaluable expertise back to Malaysia.

Since 2015, Dr Poongkodi has been a steadfast advocate for greater awareness and access to specialised urological care, particularly for women who often delay seeking treatment due to stigma, embarrassment, or lack of awareness. “Many women live with urological issues in silence, thinking it’s just something they have to endure,” she says. “My goal is to change that by providing compassionate, specialised care that makes them feel heard, supported, and empowered to take control of their health.”

Dr Nur Fadhlina, Consultant Clinical Oncologist:

Fighting Cancer with Knowledge, Compassion, and Innovation

Cancer is more than a diagnosis—it is a life-altering journey that tests the strength of patients and their families in unimaginable ways. For Dr. Nur Fadhlina (Nina), the fight against cancer is deeply personal. Every patient she treats, every breakthrough she contributes to, and every young doctor she mentors is a step closer to turning fear into hope.

Her journey began with rigorous training at University College London and Barts NHS Trusts, where she honed her expertise in oncology. With an FRCR and a Master’s in Clinical Oncology from the Institute of Cancer Research, London, Dr Nina returned home with a mission—to push the boundaries of cancer treatment and education in Malaysia.

But her impact goes far beyond the walls of a hospital. As the driving force behind the Cancer ECHO UM project, she connects doctors across the country, ensuring that even those in rural areas have access to the latest knowledge in oncology. She has led groundbreaking research and clinical trials in Head & Neck and Breast cancers, earning international recognition, including the CIC Award for Highest Research Grant procured (2021) and being named a Japan Society Medical Oncology Rising Star in Asia (2023).

Despite these accolades, Dr Nina measures success not in awards, but in the faces of survivors—the mothers, fathers, and children who get to celebrate another birthday because of early detection, better treatment, and relentless research.

“Knowledge is power, and in cancer care, it can be the difference between life and death. My mission is to ensure that patients and doctors alike have access to the latest advancements in treatment,” she shares.

Empowering Women, Inspiring Generations

These remarkable women at PHKL represent more than medical excellence; they symbolise resilience, innovation, and an unwavering commitment to their patients. Their stories remind us that breaking barriers in healthcare is not just about being the first or the only—it’s about making a lasting impact.

This International Women’s Day, PHKL celebrates not just their achievements, but the hope, healing, and inspiration they bring to their patients and the future of healthcare.

Learn more about these incredible women and their contributions to medicine at www.pantai.com.my/kuala-lumpur. This International Women’s Day, let’s honour the women who make healing possible.
