China Liberal Education Holdings Limited Announces Suspension of Nasdaq Trading

BEIJING, June 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — China Liberal Education Holdings Limited (“China Liberal” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CLEU), a China-based company that provides technological consulting services for smart campus solutions and other educational services, today announced that on May 30, 2025, the Company received notice from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) that the Company’s securities will be suspended from trading on Nasdaq effective June 3, 2025. The suspension is due to the Company’s failure to submit a request for an extended stay or otherwise address the delinquency in filing its annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, in its written submissions to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”).

As previously publicly announced and also disclosed in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 6-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in May 2025, the Company is awaiting a decision from the Panel regarding its appeal of an earlier determination by Nasdaq’s Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) to delist the Company’s securities. That determination was based on public interest concerns related to the Company’s substantial issuance of ordinary shares in December 2024.

While the Company has submitted written materials in support of its appeal and has requested that the Panel make its decision based solely on the written record, it did not request a stay of suspension or address the additional basis for delisting stemming from the untimely filing of its annual report on the Form 20-F. As a result, the Panel has determined to suspend trading in the Company’s securities.

The Company continues to evaluate all available options and remains committed to compliance with applicable SEC and Nasdaq requirements.

Strengthening Vietnam-US business partnership in the agricultural sector: Towards sustainable development and trade balance

WASHINGTON D.C, USA – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 June 2025 – Vietnam’s Minister of Agriculture and Environment Do Duc Duy plans to lead a delegation with nearly 50 agencies, agribusinesses and associations to explore opportunities to promote trade and import agrifood and timber from the United States during June 1-7, 2025. The delegation expects to participate in business dialogues in Iowa, Ohio, and Washington D.C. Vietnamese agribusinesses are ready to seek U.S. partners to purchase US commodities such as animal feed, fertilizers, biopesticides, meat products, frozen marine seafood, and raw timber.

Deepening the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership

The visit aims to boost bilateral trade and create new opportunities for Vietnam to import more agrifood and timber from the U.S., helping to balance trade between the two countries. Besides trade, the Vietnamese delegation expects to access to new technologies, hence improving the competitiveness of their own value chains.

According to Minister Do Duc Duy, both Vietnam and the U.S. have strong agricultural sectors, but their strengths complement rather than compete with each other. “With active support of both Vietnam and US government, Vietnam’s and US’s agriculture have been increasingly connected. Even we’re now sharing the same supply chains, boosting our competitiveness, thereby supporting both producers and consumers in each country”. The Minister emphasized, “Vietnamese agribusinesses have cooperated strongly with the Government to increase the purchase of agrifood and timber products from the U.S. This effort helps balance bilateral trade and strengthens the agricultural supply chain between the two countries, hence contributing to global food security.”

Earlier, in September 2024, the largest U.S. agribusiness delegation in history visited Hanoi to mark the one-year anniversary of the Vietnam–US Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. Led by USDA Deputy Secretary Alexis Taylor, the delegation was consisted of representatives from nine state governments, 35 businesses, and 25 major industry associations. Their visit underscored the growing interest of U.S. businesses in Vietnam market.

Beyond boosting trade, both countries work to build inclusive development, enhance rural resilience, and promote sustainable production and clean energy. A key highlight is the “International Year of Women Farmers 2026” initiative, co-led by the U.S. and Vietnam and adopted by a United Nations resolution in May 2024. Following the resolution, Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Environment partnered with the U.S. Mission to ASEAN and the USDA to launch the initiative with a series of events. As part of the program, two American female farmers – Jennifer Schmidt and Jaclyn Wilson – traveled to Southeast Asia to engage with other female farmers, with Vietnam as their first destination.

Driving global economic growth

Today, American consumers increasingly choose Vietnamese agrifood, especially spices, fruits, seafood, and furniture. Meanwhile, Vietnamese producers rely more on U.S. imports, including cornmeal, soybeans, meat, dairy, lumber, livestock equipment, and seedlings.

Vietnam’s farmers are enhanced with better skills and knowledge to adopt advanced American technologies to boost production, improve produce quality and protect the environment. High-quality materials and cutting-edge technologies from the U.S. are helping Vietnam build more competitive and sustainable supply chains.

Vietnam’s agriculture continues to deepen partnerships with U.S. stakeholders, from federal and state governments to associations and businesses. The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has signed multiple agreements with U.S. authorities and state governments. Vietnamese agribusinesses have signed 18 Memorandums of Understanding since 2020 to purchase agrifood from the U.S., totaling 6 billion USD, with half already implemented.

Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has created favorable conditions for U.S. agricultural exporters to enter the Vietnam market. Vietnam has completed registration procedures for 509 meat and meat exporters and 232 seafood exporters from US to Vietnam; no backlog remains to be processed. Both countries are actively working to open their fruit markets to each other, enabling exporters to reach new customers and for consumers to enjoy the distinctive flavors of both tropical and temperate regions.

Vietnam is also among the first eight Asian countries to approve biotechnology-based plant seeds from the U.S. So far, it has approved all 61 biotechnology applications dossiers submitted by U.S. companies. The two sides have also agreed on transparent and practical methods, procedures, and protocols for animal and plant quarantine. These agreements help pave the way for the development of the agrifood markets in both countries. In addition, the new Decree 73/2025/ND-CP, effective from March 31, 2025, cuts import tarriff to 0% for agrifood products that US has strong competiveness. As a result, agricultural exports from both sides have grown steadily, by around 10% annually over the past decade.

Holistic and sustainable cooperation

The visit of Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Environment delegation to the U.S. in June 2025 reflects Vietnam’s strong commitment to building trust and strengthening strategic partnerships by promoting the shared agricultural supply chains of the two countries. The visit also aims to deepen the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership as the two countries celebrate 30 years of diplomatic relations.

In an interview with Vietnamese press, the USDA emphasized: “Any agricultural trade imbalances are largely sector-specific and influenced by factors such as regulations, consumer demand, and supply chain dynamics. Ensuring reciprocal market access and reducing tariffs remain top priorities to sustain long-term trade growth.”

Dr. Nguyen Do Anh Tuan, General Director of the International Cooperation Department under Vietnam’s Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, expressed concern over President Trump administration’s announcement of a 10% tariff from April 2, 2025, and the potential for a 46% reciprocal tariff on Vietnamese exports from July 9, 2025. This tarriff imposition has alarmed not only Vietnamese exporters but also American businesses.

Dr. Tuan explained: “Beyond shrinking profit margins and weakening business competitiveness on both sides, higher reciprocal tariffs will raise prices for essential food products in the U.S. This action not only hurts American consumers but also potentially disrupts the supply chain that both governments and private sectors of both sides have worked hard to build in recent years. Agrifood is a necessity goods, and hiking price of agrifood will significantly burden American average-income households.”

GWM’s Mass-Produced Off-Road Fleet Takes on China’s Largest Desert Rally


XINJIANG, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 1 June 2025 – As engines roared across the vast desert skies, the 2025 Taklimakan Rally—dubbed the “Asian Dakar”—roared to life in China’s largest desert. This FIA-certified premier event stretches 4,500 kilometers across Xinjiang, including 2,350 kilometers of grueling special stages through the infamous “Sea of Death,” Gobi deserts, and dramatic Yardang landforms—terrain long revered as the ultimate test of man and machine. Marking its boldest return yet, GWM enters the fray with its complete lineup of mass-produced vehicles, unshaken by the challenges that lie ahead.

Early Dominance Proves Production-Level Excellence

GWM has already made a powerful impression, with its unmodified production vehicles dominating key categories. In the T2.1 fuel class, the HAVAL H9 diesel—equipped with a factory-spec 2.4T engine and triple-locking differential—has claimed multiple stage victories, including the punishing SS5 stretch across Moyu’s Red and White Mountains. Its confident navigation of shifting dunes and rugged Gobi terrain highlights the brand’s expertise in diesel technology and all-terrain engineering.

In the hybrid T2E category, the GWM TANK 300 Hi4-T has emerged as a standout contender. Drivers Yao Weiqiang and Zhou Renbin clinched stage wins in SS2, SS6, and SS7, powered by the model’s stock Hi4-T system—a 2.0T engine paired with a P2 motor and 9HAT transmission. The setup’s seamless torque delivery and rapid responsiveness in intense sandstorms and steep dune climbs reinforce GWM’s new energy off-road platform as both powerful and efficient.

Stock Cars, Extreme Terrain: GWM’s Factory Off-Roaders Hold Their Ground

The Taklimakan Rally, recognized globally as a proving ground for endurance, draws elite teams with its unforgiving terrain and rigorous FIA standards. For GWM, the event is more than a competition—it’s a bold assertion of technological independence. The brand’s three flagship lines—HAVAL, GWM TANK, and POER—are all in the spotlight. Every participating vehicle, from the HAVAL MENGLONG (gasoline) and HAVAL H9 (diesel) to the GWM TANK300 Hi4-T, GWM TANK400 Hi4-T, GWM TANK500 Hi4-Z, and the POER V6, runs with factory-standard engines and transmissions, modified only for safety. No race-tuned upgrades, no compromises—what conquers the desert is exactly what customers can drive off the lot.

Built to Last: GWM’s Factory Engineering Faces the Desert Head-On

“We chose to compete in the T2 production class to further validate our production vehicles under extreme conditions,” said GWM CTO Nicole Wu. “Our goal is to bring the same models designed for our users into the heart of the Taklimakan Rally.”

Throughout the grueling 4,500-kilometer course, every component faces relentless testing—each shock absorbed by the suspension, every spike in engine temperature, every grain of sand in the drivetrain becomes proof of GWM’s “Intelligent Off-Road” capability.

As the rally continues, GWM’s message is unmistakable: reliability isn’t engineered in laboratories—it’s forged in the field. By pushing production vehicles through some of the planet’s harshest terrain, GWM is redefining what “Made in China” means—one sand-covered, stage-winning machine at a time.

InxMed Announces Promising Phase Ib/II Clinical Data for Ifebemtinib + KRAS G12C inhibitor in KRAS G12C-Mutant Solid Tumors at ASCO 2025

NANJING, China, June 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — InxMed Co., Ltd, a clinical-stage biotechnological company, pioneering therapies to transform cancer treatment, released latest clinical data from a Phase Ib/II clinical trial (NCT06166836; NCT05379946) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ifebemtinib (IN10018), an oral focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor in combination with garsorasib (D-1533), an oral KRAS G12C inhibitor, in KRAS G12C mutant solid tumors.

The clinical data presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting (Abstract #8629 | Poster Board #109) included results from two cohorts:

  1. Durability follow-up data of the single-arm cohort in first-line KRAS G12C-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, regardless of PD-L1 expression, who received ifebemtinib + garsorasib treatment.
  2. A randomized cohort in previously treated KRAS G12C-mutant colorectal cancer (CRC) patients comparing ifebemtinib+ garsorasib versus garsorasib monotherapy. 

In NSCLC cohort, the combination of ifebemtinib and garsorasib, as a dual-oral, chemotherapy-free regimen, demonstrated compelling clinical benefit including high response rates and durable efficacy, regardless of PD-L1 expression, and in CRC cohort, the result showed clear add-on efficacy by ifebemtinib compared to KRAS inhibitor monotherapy.

Key Highlights in First-line NSCLC: Dual-Oral Regimen Shows Durable Efficacy and Emerging Survival Benefit 

As of March 31, 2025, 33 first-line NSCLC patients, regardless of PD-L1 expression, were enrolled and received the combination of ifebemtinib and garsorasib, with a median follow-up of 16.0 months. Previously the company has reported an Objective Response rate (ORR) of 90.3% (data presented at ESMO 2024). The follow-up data were now summarized as follows:  

  • Median progression-free survival (mPFS): 22.3 months
  • Median duration of response DOR (mDOR): 19.4 months
  • Median overall survival (mOS): not yet reached, with a significant uplifting and flattening survival curve indicating durable benefit.

Of note, the treatment demonstrated consistent efficacy regardless of PD-L1 expression status.

Key Findings in Previously Treated CRC: Randomized Trial Validates Synergy with KRAS G12Ci

As of Apr 21, 2025, 36 previously treated CRC patients were randomized 1:1 to receive the combination of ifebemtinib + garsorasib or garsorasib alone. All patients were radiologically evaluable and the antitumor responses were assessed and summarized as follows:

  • ORR: 44.4% (combo) vs. 16.7% (mono)
  • Disease control rate (DCR): 100.0% (combo) vs. 77.8% (mono)
  • mPFS: 7.7 months (combo) vs. 4.0 months (mono)
  • mOS: not yet reached in the combination arm; early separation observed in the survival curves

“These results validate ifebemtinib as an ideal combination partner for RAS inhibitors in RAS-driven malignancies to boost efficacy of RASi significantly,” said Dr. Zaiqi Wang, Chief Executive Officer of InxMed. “The unprecedented 19-month DOR and 22-month median PFS in front-line NSCLC in all comers and near doubling of response rate in CRC position this dual-oral regimen as a potential paradigm shift treatment in KRAS G12C-mutant cancers. Its favorable safety profile further supports the potential for a cytotoxic chemotherapy-free regimen in winning front-line in the future.”

InxMed has initiated a randomized Phase III pivotal trial in first-line KRAS G12C-mutant NSCLC. Additionally, the company is actively exploring combinations of ifebemtinib with other KRAS-targeted agents, including KRAS G12D inhibitors and multi-RAS inhibitors, supported by promising preclinical synergy data.

About Ifebemtinib (IN10018)

Ifebemtinib (IN10018) is a highly selective, orally administered, small molecule inhibitor against FAK, which has significant synergies with a broad spectrum of therapeutic modalities. Clinically, it has demonstrated therapeutic synergies with chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapies. To date, over 600 patients have been treated with a favorable safety and tolerability profile.

Ifebemtinib has been granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) and Fast-Track Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A New Drug Application submission to the NMPA is planned for 2025.

Tianfu Rapoil Shines at Hong Kong Hometown Market Carnival

HONG KONG, June 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from Xinhuanet:

Co-organized by 30 provincial-level hometown associations in Hong Kong, the “Third Hometown Market Carnival” was kicked off on June 1 in Victoria Park, marking the beginning of the five-day event. The Sichuan Provincial Grain and Material Reserve Bureau showcased its premium products under the ‘Tianfu Rapoil’ brand at the event, becoming the star attraction in this year.

At the event, Tianfu Rapoil brought nearly 2,000 products, ranging from ‘Traditional Small-Pressed Rich-Aromatic Rapeseed Oil’ made using non-heritage pressing techniques, to low-erucic acid rapeseed oil, and small-packaged rapeseed oil specifically designed for younger consumers. On-site, residents and tourists participated in ‘Come to Play and Win Oil in Victoria Park’. They not only won Tianfu Rapoil products but also received its limited-edition cultural and creative merchandise. Items such as umbrellas, folding fans, and canvas bags featuring panda patterns became the most sought-after items at the event.

This year’s Hong Kong Hometown Market Carnival features a special Chinese Food Street, with 30 food stalls offering cuisines from all over China. When Tianfu Rapoil meets regional specialities such as Xinjiang lamb skewers, Shaanxi Roujiamo, and Hunan Changde rice noodles, magical sparks occur.

At Xinjiang association stall, chefs blended Tianfu rapeseed oil with cumin and chili powder to create a secret sauce brushed onto sizzling lamb skewers, drawing a snaking line of eager customers. At Shaanxi association stall, chefs tried Tianfu rapeseed oil to bake Roujiamo, praised by diners as a ‘soulful carb bomb’. At Hunan association stall, chefs used Tianfu rapeseed oil to prepare the special topping for Changde rice noodles, delighting noodle lovers with its fragrant and refreshing taste.

During the event, procurement managers from local Hong Kong catering groups and buyers from high-end supermarkets were drawn by the aroma. “The fragrance of Tianfu Rapoil is unique. After testing it in cooking, we noticed a significant improvement in the dishes’ flavor,” said a procurement representative from a well-known chain restaurant, who expressed immediate interest in establishing a stable supply channel after learning about the oil’s production process and quality standards. 

The flood of partnership inquiries reflects the robust strength of Sichuan’s rapeseed industry. As the province with the largest rapeseed cultivation area and the highest rapeseed oil consumption in China, Sichuan has in recent years taken the Tianfu Rapoil initiative as a starting point to drive the upgrading of the entire industrial chain, and enabled Tianfu Rapoil to stand out in the domestic edible oil sector, winning the ‘China Grain and Oil Influential Public Brand’ award for five consecutive years, with a brand value exceeding 10 billion yuan.
