SY Holdings Launches Asia-Pacific’s First Supply Chain RWA Tokenization on HashKey Chain

SHENZHEN, CHINA – EQS Newswire – 27 August 2025 – SY Holdings Group Limited (“SY Holdings”, stock code: 6069.HK), a leading digital technology firm specializing in AI-driven industrial supply chains, has launched the Asia-Pacific’s first[1] supply chain asset-backed Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization on HashKey Chain, an Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain operated by HashKey Group, Asia’s leading digital asset financial services group. The inaugural tranche has established a shelf quota equivalent to USD100 million, to be issued in multiple instalments under an innovative structure featuring multi-currency offerings and stablecoins subscription. The products are backed by the genuine income streams of high-quality supply chain assets across multiple sectors, including e-commerce, within SY Holdings’ Supply Chain Technology Platform, and have received subscription from international investors. This pioneering RWA tokenization aligns with SY Holdings’ global expansion strategy and its vision to build an AI-powered international supply chain platform, transforming real-world asset certainty into on-chain configurable value.

Real World Assets (RWAs) tokenization involves tokenizing physical assets via blockchain, creating standardized, divisible, and traceable digital assets that represent rights or interests in underlying assets. This innovative financial tool leverages blockchain’s decentralization, transparency, immutability, and traceability, combined with global network interconnectivity, to enhance transaction security and transparency. Through structured design, RWA tokenization integrates seamlessly with stablecoin innovations, addressing traditional challenges like unclear ownership, limited liquidity, high transaction costs, and elevated investment barriers. Stablecoins, with their price stability and efficient settlement, serve as a critical bridge between real-world assets and on-chain value flows. They provide a reliable pricing unit, facilitate on-chain transactions, settlements, and profit distribution, and reduce transaction friction and currency risks. By combining supply chain asset-backed RWA tokenization with stablecoin applications, SY Holdings will enhances capital efficiency and lowers financing costs for SMEs while offering global investors compliant, efficient, and credible digital asset investment channels. According to Boston Consulting, driven by demand for stable returns and diversified assets alongside maturing blockchain technology, the RWA market could reach $16 trillion by 2030, becoming a vital link between traditional and digital economies.

As a Singapore capital-backed international enterprise, SY Holdings began its global expansion in August 2025, aiming to develop an AI-driven “International Supply Chain Technology Platform.” This platform empowers small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across global supply chains with integrated solutions, including flexible supply chain services, financing, foreign exchange management, and digital enablement. These tools help SMEs scale efficiently into global markets, advancing SY Holdings’ mission to “reshape global supply chains alongside SMEs” and drive a new era of synchronized global growth. The innovative application of RWA tokenization and stablecoins is a cornerstone of SY Holdings’ globalization strategy, significantly enhancing its platform’s light-asset operations and efficiency. By transforming high-quality supply chain assets into standardized, divisible, and traceable digital assets on-chain, SY Holdings will unlock efficient financing channels for SMEs and creates transparent, credible value carriers for assets previously inaccessible to international capital markets. This boosts their appeal to global institutional and Web3.0 investors, revitalizing low-liquidity assets for seamless capital turnover.

HashKey Group, Asia’s leading digital asset financial services group with licenses for Exchange, Custody, and Asset Management, provides comprehensive solutions for RWA projects, spanning asset issuance, liquidity provision, and cross-border settlement. User funds are managed throughout by a regulated custodian, ensuring asset independence and security. HashKey Chain, its core blockchain platform, drives compliant and scalable Onchain Finance for financial institutions and RWA tokenization. In this project, HashKey Chain offers SY Holdings a secure, stable, and interoperable blockchain infrastructure, leveraging advanced smart contract standards and modular deployment to enable seamless registration, integration, reconciliation, and circulation of supply chain assets on-chain, ensuring efficient and traceable flows between off-chain and on-chain environments. Additionally, HashKey Group’s HashKey NexaToken provides critical on-chain technical support for this project. Specializing in secure and efficient tokenization of traditional financial assets, HashKey NexaToken delivers an optimized user experience, high-performance and cost-effective design, rapid deployment, and robust security, flexibly addressing the diverse needs of SY Holdings’ supply chain assets to enable swift project execution and efficient on-chain asset circulation.

The core objective of this project extends beyond SY Holdings’ successful initial RWA tokenization effort, aiming to validate the compliance and scalability of the entire supply chain asset tokenization process. This lays the foundation for scaling more high-quality international supply chain assets onto SY Holdings’ technology platform and forging deeper connections with Web3.0 capital ecosystems. As strategic partners, SY Holdings and HashKey Group will actively explore pathways to link supply chain assets with global capital, promoting standardized and scalable on-chain asset flows to provide global investors with secure, transparent, and innovative digital asset investment opportunities.

“We are excited to partner with HashKey Chain to launch the Asia-Pacific’s first supply chain RWA tokenization project, driving the global tokenization of supply chain assets and accelerating their integration with Web3.0 technologies. Moving forward, SY Holdings will harness its deep expertise in digitalizing and intelligently managing supply chain assets to expand into the Web3.0 space, reducing reliance on traditional issuer credit enhancements and bridging gaps in transactional transparency within the Web3.0 ecosystem. By fully mapping authentic, sustainable, and verifiable supply chain assets onto the blockchain and leveraging stablecoins’ ‘payment-as-settlement’ efficiency, we can better empower SMEs in global industrial supply chains. This opens new avenues for global investors to access credible supply chain asset investments. SY Holdings is committed to collaborating with ecosystem partners to build an open, compliant, and mutually beneficial Web3.0 ecosystem, strengthening real-world industries through digital innovation and delivering sustainable value for SMEs and global investors,” SY Holdings stated.

Oil and Gas Output Hits New Record Profitability Remains Resilient—-CNOOC Limited Announced Its 2025 Interim Results

HONG KONG, Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — CNOOC Limited (the “Company”, SEHK: 00883 (HKD Counter) and 80883 (RMB Counter), SSE: 600938) announced today its 2025 interim results.

  • Net production increased by 6.1% year-on-year (“YoY”) while natural gas up 12.0%
  • Remained cost competitive and net profit attributable to equity shareholders reaching RMB 69.5billion
  • Actively sharing development results, HK$0.73 per share (tax inclusive) of interim dividend declared

In the first half of 2025, with the concerted efforts of all employees, CNOOC Limited contained the impact of oil price volatility by sticking to its strategy of reserves and production growth while strictly controlling costs. The Company demonstrated profitability resilience and steady progress toward high-quality development.

CNOOC Limited continued to increase reserves and production, obtaining fruitful results in oil and gas exploration. In the first half of the year, 5 new oil and gas discoveries were made and 18 oil and gas bearing structures were successfully appraised. Offshore China, the Company discovered Jinzhou 27-6, Caofeidian 22-3, Weizhou 10-5 South, and successfully appraised Qinhuangdao 29-6 and Lingshui 25-1. Overseas, the Company actively advanced deployment in strategic areas. The reserves in Guyana continued to grow through three-dimensional deepwater exploration. The Company signed its first oil exploration contract for a new block in Kazakhstan, further expanding its overseas exploration potential.

The Company efficiently promoted the construction of major projects, achieving record-high oil and gas production. In the first half of the year, the net production was 384.6 million BOE, representing an increase of 6.1% YoY, with both domestic and international production exceeding previous record highs for the same period. During the period, 10 oil and gas field development projects successfully commenced production, including the Bozhong 26-6 Oilfield Development Project (Phase I), Wenchang 9-7 Oilfield Development Project, and the Buzios7 and Mero4 projects in Brazil, demonstrating the Company’s outstanding project execution capabilities. Natural gas production surged by 12.0% YoY, showing strong momentum of growth. The Dongfang 29-1 Gas Field Development Project and the Dongfang 1-1 Gas Field 13-3 Block Development Project commenced production, while production from major producing gas fields such as Shenhai-1 and Bozhong 19-6 continued to ramp up. With Shenhai-1 Phase II Natural Gas Development Project on-stream, “Shenhai-1” is expected to produce over 4.5 billion cubic meters of natural gas per annum, becoming China’s largest offshore gas field.

CNOOC Limited remained committed to innovation-driven growth, advancing its digital and intelligent transformation in an orderly manner. Key technologies for reserves and production growth were developed and applied. Reserve utilization and oil recovery rates continued to improve, while the natural decline rate of oilfields offshore China remained at a low level. Advanced geophysical technologies were applied to improve the quality of seismic data from deep plays. Intelligent injection-production technologies were deployed on a large scale to help control the natural decline rate. The Company promoted excellent intelligent drilling and completion, with the construction speed of the demonstration projects accelerated by 26%. The Company deployed “AI+” application scenarios, while the “Shenhai-1” Intelligent Gas Field was recognized as one of China’s first batch of top-tier smart facilities. The Company integrated satellite remote sensing, unmanned equipment, and AI algorithms, to enhance its emergency response capability against typhoon-related risks, laying solid foundation for safe production.

The Company adhered to integrated development of oil and gas and new energy sectors, making solid progress in green transition. By adopting multiple measures, including energy conservation in oil and gas production, green electricity substitution, and renewable power generation, the Company made new progress in producing oil and gas in a cleaner way. In the first half of the year, the Company applied permanent magnet electric submersible pumps on a large scale, and the Qinhuangdao 32-6 Oilfields saved approximately 18 million kWh of electricity through lean power management. During the period, the Company generated over 900 million kWh of green power, while “HaiyouGuanlan” provided stable green electricity to the Wenchang Oilfields. In addition, the Company purchased and consumed 500 million kWh of green electricity. To foster new industries, China’s first offshore CCUS project was commissioned on the Enping 15-1 platform, pioneering a new mode of carbon-driven oil recovery and oil-based carbon sequestration. The Bohai Oilfields are planned to host the largest offshore CCUS center in northern China, realizing full-cycle capture, injection, and storage of CO2.

CNOOC Limited remained cost competitive, benefiting from its lean management. In the first half of the year, the Company tackled the uncertainties of external environment with stable high-quality development, demonstrating profitability resilience against oil price changes. Oil and gas sales revenue reached RMB171.7billion. Effective control over all-in cost was sustained, which remained flat YoY at US$26.94 per BOE. Net profit attributable to equity shareholders amounted to RMB69.5 billion. The Company has always actively returned to its shareholders. The Board of Directors has resolved to declare an interim dividend of HK$0.73 per share (tax inclusive).

Mr. Zhang Chuanjiang, Chairman of CNOOC Limited, said: “In the first half of the year, the Company advanced oil and gas development and production in a steady and efficient manner, effectively responding to market fluctuations and laying a solid foundation for achieving the full-year targets. Looking ahead to the second half of the year, the Company will stick to its strategy, remain committed to ensuring safe operations, to complete annual tasks, and strive to promote the high-quality development of China’s offshore energy industry to a new level.”

President’s Son Thongly Sisoulith Appointed Youth Union Secretary

Thongly Sisoulith, son of Lao President Thongloun Sisoulith, became Secretary of the Central Committee of the Lao People’s Revolutionary Youth Union (LPRYU) on 26 August.

The Union announced the appointment at its meeting, where Vice President Bounthong Chitmany attended. Thongly succeeds Monexay Laomouaxiong, who previously held the post. 

Suliya Keophilavong, Meena Sivilay, and Pany Kindavong also joined the team as deputy secretaries of the Central Committee.

During the meeting, the participants endorsed the 2026-2030 youth development plan, which sets a framework for young people to engage more actively in national initiatives and contribute to Laos’s social and economic development. The plan builds on the achievements and lessons of the past five years.

Thongly has previously served as Deputy Secretary of the LPRYU. His father, Thongloun, has led Laos as President and the Lao People’s Revolutionary Party as General Secretary since 2021, after serving as Prime Minister for the previous five years, and he continues to play a central role in government and diplomacy.

The appointment comes amid major political shifts in Laos. 

In June, the National Assembly approved constitutional amendments aimed at modernizing governance by decentralizing power to local committees and revising administrative roles. 

The reforms, effective in July 2025, were accompanied by a sweeping government reshuffle that reduced ministries from 17 to 13, reassigned or replaced nine ministers, and merged key portfolios such as Planning and Investment with Finance.

These changes reflect broader efforts to streamline governance and prepare the country for parliamentary elections scheduled for February 2026.
