InvestHK to deepen economic ties with Canadian investors and businesses


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 June 2025 – Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion at Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) Mr Charles Ng will commence his duty visit to Canada from June 8 to 14 to deepen economic ties with Canadian investors and businesses.

“Hong Kong and Canada have long shared a strong and mutually beneficial investment relationship. In 2023, Canada ranked eighth among the major sources of inward direct investment into Hong Kong, contributing over US$34 billion. At the same time, Hong Kong made outward direct investment of around US$10 billion to Canada, reflecting the deep economic ties and two-way confidence between our markets,” Mr Ng said. “Hong Kong will continue to play its unique role as both a ‘super connector’ and a value creator, bridging traditional and emerging markets and unlocking new opportunities for Canadian businesses.”

During his visit to Waterloo, Toronto and Montreal, Mr Ng will meet with investors, family offices, multinationals, Canadian start-ups, academia and business leaders to explore new opportunities for collaboration and showcase Hong Kong’s unique advantages as a launchpad for Asian expansion. Key discussions will focus on leveraging the city’s strategic gateway position to Mainland China and its business-friendly environment for scaling operations.

Mr Ng will host exclusive roundtables for entrepreneurs and Canada-Hong Kong ecosystem partners to highlight Hong Kong’s strengths in wealth management and cross-border investment solutions. He will also participate in networking events to promote Hong Kong FinTech Week x StartmeupHK Festival 2025, inviting Canadian investors and entrepreneurs to visit Hong Kong November 3 to 7, engage with Asia’s dynamic markets, and experience the opportunities Hong Kong offers firsthand.

Hong Kong and Canada have established longstanding and strong ties across trade, investment, tourism, and cultural exchanges. This relationship was further strengthened by the Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement, which came into effect in September 2016, providing Canadian and Hong Kong investors with a transparent and secure environment to foster cross-border investment. In 2023, Canada ranked as Hong Kong’s ninth largest services trading partner, with bilateral trade growing at an average annual rate of 2.2 per cent from 2019 to 2023.

China’s Aircraft Maker Seeks Majority Stake in Lao Airlines Amid Reforms

Lao Airlines to Introduces New Routes for Visit Laos 2024

The Lao government is weighing a proposal from China’s Commercial Aircraft Corporation (COMAC) to acquire a controlling stake in Lao Airlines, part of a sweeping reform agenda aimed at revitalizing key state-owned enterprises that have faced persistent financial challenges. 

The proposal, which has stirred debate within the latest National Assembly meeting, could result in one of the most significant foreign partnerships in the country’s aviation sector to date.

In May, COMAC formally requested a minimum 51 percent stake in Lao Airlines through a joint venture agreement, according to Lao state media. This request, submitted in October 2024, comes alongside calls to exclude the airline’s existing debt from the deal, an issue that remains a sticking point for lawmakers.

Prime Minister Sonexay Siphandone confirmed during the 9th Ordinary Session of the 9th Legislature in June that Lao Airlines is one of four state enterprises undergoing urgent reform, along with Electricité du Laos, the Lao State Fuel Company, and the Nayoby Bank. 

He acknowledged the seriousness of COMAC’s interest, framing it within the broader goal of improving operational efficiency across public sectors.

The proposal has elicited a divided response in parliament. National Assembly member Valy Vetsaphong expressed concern over relinquishing a majority stake in an asset deemed strategically vital. 

She argued that Laos would be better served by appointing qualified executives to improve management rather than selling control to a foreign entity, as reported by the Vientiane Times, she also stressed that no foreign partner should be allowed to interfere in the airline’s core operations or receive subsidies.

State media also reported that another member of the Assembly voiced support for a phased ownership model, suggesting that the Lao government could initially sell a larger share to COMAC, but retain the right to repurchase shares in the future. 

This would allow for technical and managerial expertise to be transferred to Lao Airlines while preserving long-term national control.

A key part of the proposed partnership is fleet integration. COMAC has requested that Lao Airlines begin using its aircraft for regular operations, a condition already partially fulfilled. 

COMAC Jet Launches as Audit, Partnership Talks Continue

Lao Airlines began operating the COMAC C909 jet in April. The aircraft, configured with 90 economy seats, now services key domestic routes including Vientiane–Pakse and Vientiane–Savannakhet. Expansion to Chinese destinations is planned, aligning with COMAC’s broader strategy to deepen regional engagement.

To support this integration, COMAC has deployed a specialized team to assist Lao Airlines in preparatory tasks such as operations manual development, aviation material supply, maintenance capacity building, and crew training. 

As the government continues deliberations, an independent audit of Lao Airlines is underway to determine the carrier’s asset value, a crucial step in finalizing any equity arrangement. 

The outcome of this potential deal could have wide-ranging implications for foreign investment in Laos’ state-owned sectors and for the future of its national airline.

The decision is expected in the coming months as lawmakers and government officials weigh the long-term economic benefits against concerns over national sovereignty and control of strategic infrastructure.

From Mumbai to Delhi: 1win’s Cricket Roadshow


NEW DELHI, INDIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 9 June 2025 – Throughout May, 1win took the roads of India with a mission: to bring IPL 2025 thrills to the cricket fans, even in the country’s distant corners.

PublisherTMPaV8I9P.jpg

As part of a nationwide roadshow, the brand visited multiple cities and towns on the way from Mumbai to New Delhi with a fleet of branded trucks, entertaining fan zones, and a caravan of local influencers.

Indian actors Surbhi Jyoti and Vishal Pandey joined the ride, lighting up each destination with their charm, humor, and love for cricket. Together with local influencers, they shared stories, cheered for their favorite teams, and brought smiles to thousands of fans.

“Cricket is something we all connect over, and this roadshow by 1win made that connection feel even more special. I loved seeing how excited people were when the trucks arrived—it was pure magic,” said Vishal Pandey.

Along the long road from Mumbai to New Delhi, 1win’s blue trucks made more than just a journey—they delivered the joy of watching the 2025 Indian Premier League. Each stop along the route transformed into a vibrant celebration, complete with live screenings, cricket-themed games, giveaways, and surprise celebrity visits. In the evening, 1win turned trucks into open-air cinemas, streaming live IPL matches on big screens under the stars—free of charge for the public. This way, people without access to TVs or mobile data could join the national celebration and cheer for their heroes.

“It felt like we were on a real adventure—traveling from city to city, meeting so many amazing people, and watching cricket under the stars. I’ll never forget the smiles we saw in those villages,” added Surbhi Jyoti.

With this IPL campaign, 1win not only carried gifts but also carried a message: cricket is more than a game—it is a reason to come together and get closer as a community.

Coface Asia Payment Survey 2025 Companies expect payment behaviours to worsen amid economic uncertainty


HONG KONG SAR / SHANGHAI & BEIJING, CHINA / TAIPEI, TAIWAN / SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA / TOKYO, JAPAN – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 June 2025 – The Asia Payment Survey, conducted by Coface in Q1 2025, provides insights into the evolution of payment behaviour and credit management practices of about 2,400 companies across the Asia Pacific region. Respondents are active in nine markets (Australia, China, Hong Kong SAR, India, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand) and 13 sectors.

  • Average payment terms rose slightly to 65 days in 2024 from 64 in 2023
  • The average payment delay was unchanged at 65 days in 2024 but the share of companies experiencing payment delays dropped to 49%.
  • The share of companies reporting ultra-long payment delays (ULPDs[1]) exceeding 2% of annual turnover rose to a new high at 40%, up from 23% in 2023. Wood, Agro-food and Automotive reported the highest increase.
  • 57% of companies expect payment behaviours to worsen in the next six months, citing slowing demand, competitive pressure, and rising costs as top risks.
  • 33% of companies expected business outlook to deteriorate in 2025.
Coface Asia Payment Survey 2025

“Asia-Pacific experienced a slowdown in growth in 2024 due to slow growth in global demand, rising costs and high interest environment. The record surge in ULPDs signals that companies expect to face mounting financial strain. Along with escalating tariffs, businesses are bracing for a more volatile trade and policy environment. We have revised the GDP growth forecast for Asia to 3.8% in 2025. ” said Bernard Aw, Chief Economist for Asia-Pacific at Coface.

Credit terms still tight and may tighten ahead

Credit conditions remained tighter in 2024 compared to before 2023. Payment terms rose from 64 days in 2023 to 65 but below the five-year average of 69 days in 2018-2022.

Ten of the 13 sectors surveyed saw their payment terms increase in 2024. The sharpest rise was recorded in the automotive sector followed by textiles and chemicals. Increasing competition in the auto market prompted dealers to be more flexible in granting credit and to use it as a competitive tool.

Looking ahead, two-thirds of companies expect shorter payment terms, reflecting caution and higher priority for cash preservation amid heightened uncertainty.

Rising concern as ultra-long payment delays hit record high

The average payment delay remained stable at 65 days, unchanged from 2023.

Transport and Automobile reported higher payment delays (respectively +2% and +1% vs 2023).

However, the share of companies reporting ULPDs – payment delays over 180 days and exceeding 2% of annual revenue – rose dramatically to a new high at 40%, up from 23% in 2023. This represent a very high risk, given that 80% of these delays have never been paid, according to Coface’s experience. Such delays were highest in China, India, Thailand and Malaysia. All 13 sectors also saw increased ULPDs, with the most notable increases in Wood (+37%), Agro-food (+20%) and Automotive (+18%).

This trend is expected to continue over the next six months as 57% of companies expected a deterioration in late payments.

Outlook: Shifting trade policies expected to impact economic sentiment

We expect the economic outlook for 2025 to continue to weaken. Higher tariffs and shifting trade policies have increased uncertainty over global economic policy, weighing heavily on business spending and consumer confidence. In addition, companies also cite over-competitive pressures, slowing demand and higher labour costs as additional risks.

33% of respondents expect business activity to deteriorate in 2025 (vs 2024), more than double as compared to last year’s survey. Taiwan and Singapore were the most pessimistic, where over 4 out of 10 respondents expect deteriorating business activity.

‘Asia-Pacific growth slowed in 2024 as demand weakened. The rebound in trade last year has marginally offset the decline in 2023. In the face of continued and heightened geo-political uncertainty and increasing costs, many businesses are anticipated to strengthen their credit management measures and prioritise cost management.’ said Bernard Aw, Chief Economist for Asia-Pacific at Coface.

Crypto CFD as a safe, flexible and efficient trading alternative: explained by Octa broker


KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 June 2025 – Bitcoin keeps reaching new ATHs (All-Time Highs) in 2025 and fosters bullish market sentiments, yet volatility remains significant. This ramps up the risks for crypto traders, who use traditional spot trading tools. Experts at Octa Broker explain how CFDs—Contracts for Difference—allow traders to decrease risk exposure while offering more trading opportunities.

Octa Broker

The majority of crypto traders believe the market will remain bullish in 2025. Bitcoin shows new ATHs, which stimulates altcoin price increases. The Trump administration’s crypto-friendly policies are often perceived as triggers for crypto market growth. Yet, despite the crypto-positive U.S. president and the increasing Bitcoin price, the market remains relatively unstable and prone to significant volatility.

Disruptive crypto market and its risks for spot traders
During the past six months, the crypto market has suffered significant turbulence. For example, at the end of 2024, the market capitalisation surpassed $1.6 trillion (Bitcoin excluded), only to later drop by 41% to $950 billion in Q1 2025. At the same time, venture capital investments returned to the levels of 2017-2018. Due to such negative dynamics, macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, and a more restrictive monetary policy, reputable crypto experts like Coinbase institutional assumed that a crypto winter took place instead of the anticipated bull run and an alt season.

Since Q1 2025 showed the worst first-quarter performance in seven years with a dominating downtrend and high volatility, crypto traders struggled to identify potential trades and faced increased risks. What is more, funds were more vulnerable due to increased cyber threats. Chainalysis discovered a 60% rise in crypto hacks in Q1 2025. The total value of lost assets surpassed $2.2 billion. Traders suffered because of exploited protocols, key mismanagement, and mere phishing attacks.

CFDs to combat risks for spot traders
CFDs are overall a safer, more flexible and affordable alternative to traditional tools offered by crypto exchanges. While spot trading limits traders to capitalising on cryptocurrency price increases, CFDs allow them to benefit from the price difference between entry and exit positions. The trend doesn’t matter: one can open long positions, assuming price increases, and short ones, expecting an asset value to decrease. Moreover, when opening a contract, a trader doesn’t purchase a token. Such an approach allows crypto traders to eliminate several risks.

Limited trading opportunities
Traditional trading tools of the spot market imply that traders purchase an asset at a lower price and then sell it when the value increases. Doing so requires freezing funds until the cryptocurrency is sold. In times of high volatility and downtrend, traders end up in a situation where their trading opportunities are scarce, especially if they invested all their finances before the bearish trend suddenly began. Crypto CFDs don’t limit potential trades to the bullish market only: traders can also open positions to benefit from potential asset price decreases.

High market entry requirements
Owning an asset requires significant finances to enter the crypto market. CFDs offer traders leverage: a financial tool that requires a margin, a relatively small deposit, to open a trade for a larger amount of crypto. As a result, traders can enter a crypto market with far fewer resources. The trade conditions are transparent and competitive. Regulated brokers like Octa provide flexible leverage and low spreads on CFD pairs specified before trade opening.

Crypto ownership risks
Since CFDs eliminate the need for direct asset ownership, traders reduce the risk of token losses or theft. There is no need to manage hot or cold wallet accesses, including private keys, mind faulty smart contracts, or exchange security. CFDs are processed across broker infrastructure, which is regulated by reputable financial institutions. They require brokers to set up a reliable trading environment, adhere to responsible trading policies, and provide transparent operations.

Additional benefits of CFDs for active traders
CFDs are known as a more efficient financial tool, especially in times of market volatility. CFD brokers provide access to a wide variety of assets beyond the crypto landscape, thus allowing traders to diversify their portfolios with currency pairs, commodities, and indices. For instance, Octa Broker offers CFDs on over 30 popular digital assets: fiat currency pairs, global indices, commodities, stock derivatives, and shares. All of them are traded across a transparent ecosystem where traders are aware of leverage, fees, and spreads before opening a trade. This enhances risk management and allows to better calculate risks and adjust them, if necessary, before market entry.

Summing up
CFDs allow traders to efficiently combat risk exposure, which is inevitable when operating with traditional crypto trading tools. When entering a contract, one can benefit from a bullish and bearish market and navigate across a transparent environment without actually owning the asset. This also allows traders to minimise security risks like asset theft or loss and facilitates entry into the crypto market. Moreover, CFDs provide access to various asset types that aren’t limited to cryptocurrencies. Traders can diversify their portfolio and opt for a wider variety of assets to enhance risk management.
