XTransfer Joins Forum Ekonomi Malaysia 2026

Signals Plan to Make Malaysia Regional Compliance Hub


KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 February 2026 – XTransfer, the world’s leading B2B cross-border financial platform, was honoured to be invited to join the Malaysia Economic Forum (Forum Ekonomi Malaysia 2026). Bill Deng, Founder and CEO of XTransfer, shared insights on how Malaysia can accelerate technology application and innovation to help micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) scale exports under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP), during FEM 2026’s panel discussion, “Made by Malaysia: Accelerating Technology Applications & Innovation”.

Bill was honoured to join YB Tuan Liew Chin Tong, Deputy Minister of Finance of Malaysia, and Mr Ooi Ching Liang, Senior Director of Engineering at SkyeChip, for a discussion focused on strengthening high-growth, high-value industries, advancing R&D commercialisation, increasing productivity and competitiveness, and supporting MSMEs in global value chains.

Drawing on XTransfer’s work with MSMEs across markets, Bill noted that many Malaysian businesses are “able to export,” but face persistent barriers to scaling exports. The most common issues are trust, compliance, and scale, which often surface as payment delays, repeated documentation requests, FX uncertainty, and working capital pressure as orders grow.

“For B2B SMEs in foreign trade, the biggest constraint isn’t demand. It’s the operational complexity behind cross-border payments, foreign exchange, and compliance,” Bill said. “In particular, AML requirements can be difficult for both traditional banks and SMEs to manage efficiently, creating friction that slows down legitimate trade.”

Bill highlighted a structural shift in global trade flows from a single dominant corridor to non-U.S., intra-Asia, and broader South–South routes. This trend is increasingly clear in real SME transaction patterns. Bill shared, “In 2025, XTransfer’s average collection amount from Asia, Africa, and Latin America grew by 106% year-on-year, with Africa exceeding 270%, Latin America reaching 94%, and ASEAN reaching 82%.” YB Liew noted the trend and thinks it is a direction Malaysia should pursue.

XTransfer also said it plans to establish Malaysia as its regional compliance centre, citing Malaysia’s strong geographic and time-zone advantages, a mature regulatory environment, availability of talent in compliance and risk operations, and cost efficiency. “Malaysia gives us the talent, governance environment, and regional proximity to scale compliance as intra-Asia and emerging-market trade accelerates,” Bill added.

Symbolic handover as KuCoin and the Global CSR Foundation present relief packages to H. Teuku Badruddin Syah, Sultan of Aceh, alongside Yayasan Srikandi Merah Putih, marking the launch of the A Matter of Dignity Sumatra Relief Initiative.

Distribution is scheduled to begin in early April 2026, focusing on communities most affected by recent disasters and prolonged recovery challenges.

“This initiative is about responding to crisis in a way that protects both life and dignity,” said Aurelly Syifalia Widihartanto, Co-Founder of Yayasan Srikandi Merah Putih. “Women are often the most affected during disasters, yet their basic health needs are the first to be overlooked. Our goal is to ensure care reaches communities not only quickly, but respectfully and responsibly.”

The initiative builds on an established collaboration between AMWAs Global Health Lead Dr Padmini Murthy and Global CSR Foundation, founded by Jing Zhao Cesarone, and expands into Indonesia through Yayasan Srikandi Merah Putih, with leadership support from Vice President Stefanny Florina.

The Menstrual Equity Project was conceptualized by Dr. Padmini Murthy and Jing Zhao Cesarone and has been successfully implemented in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, the Republic of Suriname, and in satellite clinics affiliated with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, providing a proven model now adapted for the Indonesian context.

The procurement and shipment of menstrual hygiene kits are supported by KuCoin, represented by CSR Director and Global Human Resources Director Sylvie Dong, enabling the timely delivery of women’s health supplies. “Corporate responsibility means showing up in practical ways when communities are affected by disaster,” said Sylvie Dong. “KuCoin will continue to support CSR initiatives that address real needs and deliver meaningful help on the ground.”

On-the-ground distribution of medicine, food, and hygiene kits in Aceh and Medan is led by Maha Medicare, which has been actively assisting flood-affected communities in Medan since December.

The initiative is supported by regional and national leadership, including H. Teuku Badruddin Syah, Sultan of Aceh, reflecting strong local commitment to community recovery. National-level support is further demonstrated through the involvement of Agustina Hastarini, Spouse of the Minister of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) of Indonesia and La Ode Ikrar Hastomi as the representative of the Ministry of Industry of Indonesia, underscoring government engagement in cross-sector humanitarian action.

The relief effort has also drawn support from prominent Indonesian public figures who are using their platforms to amplify the message of dignity-centered humanitarian response. Indonesian actors and actresses Baim Wong, Rianti Cartwright, Dame Aning, Nadya Shakira, Ririn Dwi Ariyanti, and Metta Permadi have joined the initiative, helping raise awareness around women’s health, access to essential care, and the importance of dignity in disaster response.

The initiative was formally presented during an intimate press dinner titled “A Matter of Dignity,” held on Friday, 6 February 2026, at Sushi Maru Hang Tuah, Jakarta, bringing together foundation leaders, government representatives, medical experts, business executives, public figures, and senior media.

Post-distribution documentation, verified impact reports, and visual materials from Aceh and Medan will be made available to media following deployment.

CGTN: Little Chinese New Year opens big window to China’s soul


BEIJING, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 11 February 2026 – As China marks Xiaonian, or Little Chinese New Year, there is growing evidence of its ancient traditions evolving into global lifestyle trends. CGTN published an article analyzing how this prelude to the Year of the Horse – from the folk ritual of “sweeping the dust” to the cross-cultural fusion of the Spring Festival Gala – illustrates China’s growing global cultural resonance.

As the lunar calendar turns its final pages, China enters a period of joyful anticipation known as Xiaonian, or Little Chinese New Year. Often celebrated as the Festival of the Kitchen God, it marks the official start of the “busy year” – a traditional term for the intense, joyful period of preparing food, cleaning homes, and shopping for the upcoming Spring Festival.

The Spring Festival is a deeply significant time for family reunion. In 2024, UNESCO inscribed the “Spring Festival, social practices of the Chinese people in celebration of the traditional Chinese New Year” onto the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

While daily routines continue to evolve, they remain anchored in rituals that provide a sense of normalcy and meaning. It is perhaps no wonder that in a climate of uncertainty, traditional Chinese lifestyles are finding a new audience beyond the country’s borders, with the Spring Festival chief among those unique traditions that are fast becoming a shared human experience.

Diverse traditions, shared aspirations

In a prelude to the broader celebrations, Xiaonian, observed on February 10 and 11 this year, kickstarts a focused period of preparation. According to ancient lore, families offer Zaotang, or sticky “Kitchen Candy,” to the Kitchen God to ensure he delivers a favorable report on the household’s conduct before he ascends to the heavens. This lighthearted tradition marks the beginning of several symbolic rituals aimed at welcoming a fresh start.

A key element of this transition is donning new clothes. In Chinese culture, the New Year represents a moment when “all things are renewed,” and wearing new garments symbolizes shedding the “dust” or misfortunes of the past to embrace auspicious energy for the year ahead. Alongside this personal renewal, families nationwide engage in “sweeping the dust,” a deep-cleaning ritual to purify the home and prepare it for new blessings.

Whereas these practices are universal, celebratory flavors vary by geography. In the north, families traditionally gather over steaming plates of dumplings, whereas in the south, the menu often features sweet rice cakes (Niangao) and glutinous rice balls (Tangyuan).

As Mao Qiaohui, a researcher at the Institute of Ethnic Literature at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, explains, these variations highlight the inclusive nature of Chinese civilization.

“Although folk customs differ between different regions across China, this diversity reflects the cultural pluralism within the Spring Festival tradition,” she notes. “Different regional identities contribute to a shared pursuit of harmony and reunion.”

The vitality of these traditions is also evident in local craftsmanship. In northern regions like Shandong and Henan, artisans are currently making Huamo, decorated steamed buns, featuring horse designs for the upcoming zodiac year. Meanwhile, in Shuozhou, Shanxi Province, intangible heritage inheritors are carving spirited stallions onto traditional gourds. These creations reflect the regional diversity of the festival and a collective desire for progress in the year ahead.

Cultural dialogue: From global stage to daily life

The festive atmosphere is reflected further in preparations for the Spring Festival Gala (Chunwan), produced by China Media Group.

Recent rehearsals show performances meshing traditional Chinese culture with international artistry. One performance piece combines the wooden clog dance of the Hani and Lisu ethnic groups with the rhythmic tap of Spanish Flamenco and Hungarian folk dance. And with global stars like Jackie Chan and Lionel Richie on the bill, the Gala’s stage is set to become a stage for the world to come together.

The reach of the gala has expanded far beyond a domestic audience. Through the “Spring Festival Gala Prelude” events held in the United States, Russia, France, Italy, and several African nations, the program has become a gateway to Chinese New Year customs and cultural exchange.

This interest extends beyond art and into the lives of people worldwide, as seen in the #BecomingChinese trend. This phenomenon features international social media users adopting elements of Chinese daily life – such as keeping a thermos of hot water handy, wearing quilted indoor slippers or practicing mindful movement with Baduanjin exercises.

The festival is no longer a distant event but a gateway to Chinese lifestyle, rooted in ancient wellness wisdom and constantly updated by modern convenience, and the first step to a journey of exploration into a culture that values ritual, safety and hospitality.

Whether through global broadcasts or shared daily habits, the Spring Festival increasingly strengthens a sense of cultural empathy between China and the rest of the world.
