Oudomxay Province on 13 December officially inaugurated a 1,000-megawatt solar power project, marking one of Laos’ largest renewable energy developments to date. The facility was developed by CGN Energy Technology (Laos) Co., Ltd. in partnership with the Lao government.

The project was launched under a concession agreement signed in September 2024, with construction beginning the same month. Approximately 800 technical specialists and laborers worked across 2,090 hectares covering seven villages in Xay and Namor districts. Before commissioning, the project completed full land clearing and landmine removal, while making significant progress on internal roads and electrical infrastructure.

During a site inspection on 29 May, Oudomxay Governor Bounkhong Lachiemphon reviewed ongoing construction, confirming that clearing was fully completed, landmine clearance had reached 95.74 percent, internal roads were more than 81 percent finished, and electrical pole installation was nearing 60 percent. 

Solar panel deployment had begun, with mounting structures at 3.56 percent and panel installation at 1.89 percent. Transmission infrastructure preparations, including surveys and site confirmation for 43 pole bases, were also underway.

Once fully operational, Phase I of the project is expected to generate approximately 1.7 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity annually, enough to supply power to roughly 10 million households. The electricity will be transmitted to China’s Yunnan Province via the China–Laos 500-kilovolt power grid interconnection, supporting regional energy transition efforts and enhancing cross-border power supply stability.

The solar farm is also expected to deliver socio-economic benefits to local communities, including job creation, vocational training, and improved infrastructure for surrounding villages.

The project forms a central part of the Northern Laos Interconnected Clean Energy Base, which integrates solar, wind, and biomass power projects across Oudomxay, Luang Namtha, and Phongsaly provinces. The initiative aims to establish northern Laos as a regional clean energy hub.

Solar Power Growth Surges in Laos

In a broader effort to national development, Laos is accelerating its renewable energy expansion with several new solar power projects across the country, involving partnerships with South Korean and U.S. companies.

On 10 November, the state-run utility Electricité du Laos (EDL) signed an agreement with South Korean firm CS Tech Co., Ltd. to develop floating solar installations on its hydropower reservoirs. The partnership will also explore carbon credit initiatives to support Laos’ climate goals.

Earlier in August, EDL reached agreements with another South Korean company, ASFC Co., Ltd., to build a 15-megawatt solar project near several of its hydropower plants, including Xeset 1-3, Xelabam, and Nam Mang 3.

In southern Laos, the provincial government of Attapeu approved a 5-megawatt solar power project on 28 October, to be developed by South Korean firm SBIN Corporation. The project will cover 10 hectares in Sanongmai-Piandong village, Sanamxay district.

Meanwhile, U.S.-based Convalt Energy is developing a large-scale 1,200-megawatt solar farm in Attapeu, representing an investment of USD 1.3 billion. The facility will span approximately 1,800 hectares, making it one of the largest solar projects in the country.

These initiatives, alongside ongoing developments in northern provinces aim to diversify the nation’s energy mix, reduce reliance on fossil fuels, and strengthen cross-border energy cooperation in the region.

ORGE Co., Ltd. Enters Japan’s Organic Health Food Market, Strengthening Strategy to Capture Local Wellness Trends

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ORGE Co., Ltd., a Korean brand specializing in organic health foods, is accelerating its push into the Japanese market, marking a new phase in its global expansion. In November, ORGE participated in the Japan Food Tech Fair held at Tokyo Big Sight, where it engaged in partnership discussions with major Japanese distributors and health food buyers. Building on these talks, the company has announced plans for an official launch in Japan in the first half of next year.

ORGE’s flagship lineup of organic, low-sodium health-focused samgyetang (Korean ginseng chicken soup) received positive feedback from local buyers, aligning well with Japan’s rapidly growing demand for wellness-oriented convenience foods. Emphasizing ease of preparation and the use of safe, domestically sourced Korean ingredients, ORGE’s products are expected to gain strong appeal among busy office workers and Japan’s expanding single-person household segment.

The company also unveiled Japan-exclusive menu concepts tailored to local consumer preferences. These include a light soup line featuring a milder, smoother broth profile, as well as meal-replacement options with localized ratios of organic chicken. Strong interest at the event underscored the potential for expanding a dedicated Japan-only product portfolio.

ORGE is currently in discussions regarding private brand (PB) collaborations with Japanese convenience store chains and potential placement in premium supermarkets in the Tokyo and Osaka areas. The company is also reviewing listings on major e-commerce platforms such as Rakuten and Amazon Japan. In addition, ORGE plans to operate pop-up stores in key Japanese cities to strengthen brand awareness and broaden consumer touchpoints.

An ORGE representative stated, “We aim to establish a stable foothold in Japan by reinforcing localization strategies that reflect Japanese dietary habits and high quality standards. Our goal is to grow into a premium organic health food brand representing K-food and to expand our presence across Asia.”

Agricultural Corporation Joeunsul Co., Ltd. Announces Entry into Vietnam Market, Accelerating Southeast Asia Expansion with “Cheonbihyang”

SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Korean traditional liquor producer Agricultural Corporation Joeunsul Co., Ltd. has announced its plans to enter the Vietnamese market, spearheading its Southeast Asia expansion with its flagship traditional rice wine, Cheonbihyang. The company is currently exploring Vietnam as a new export destination, amid the region’s growing interest in diverse food cultures and a steady rise in international tourism. Joeunsul is reviewing local import procedures and consulting with potential distribution partners to establish a fully compliant and legal distribution network.

Cheonbihyang is a premium yakju brewed from domestically sourced glutinous and non-glutinous rice, combined with traditional Korean nuruk, and refined through an extended fermentation process. Known for its smooth aroma and refined mouthfeel, the product received the Presidential Award at Korea’s most prestigious liquor competition in 2025, officially recognizing its quality and authenticity. This distinction is expected to serve as a strong credibility marker when engaging overseas buyers.

Vietnam enforces strict regulations on imported alcoholic beverages, including distribution approvals, quality inspections, import licensing, and compliance with sealing and labeling requirements. Joeunsul is proactively reviewing these regulations and preparing for lawful import procedures. In parallel, the company is considering an initial distribution strategy focused on premium hotels and restaurants in major cities such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, where demand for high-end international beverages is concentrated.

A Joeunsul representative stated, “Cheonbihyang is not merely an alcoholic beverage, but a true expression of Korea’s fermentation heritage. Through this entry into Vietnam, we aim to compete on quality and storytelling, serving as a bridge to introduce K-traditional liquor to the Southeast Asian market.”

As Korean traditional liquor continues to seek new growth opportunities abroad, industry attention is focused on how Cheonbihyang will be received by Vietnamese consumers and whether this initiative will mark a meaningful step forward for K-traditional spirits in Southeast Asia.

Relief Therapeutics and NeuroX Complete Business Combination and Form MindMaze Therapeutics

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – EQS Newswire – 15 December 2025 – MindMaze Therapeutics Holding SA (SIX: MMTX) (MindMaze Therapeutics or the Company) announced today the completion of its business combination with NeuroX Group SA (NeuroX), a commercial-stage company delivering evidence-based, precision digital treatments for neurological diseases. The newly combined entity now operates under the name MindMaze Therapeutics Holding SA.

The closing follows the signing of a definitive business combination agreement in October 2025 and subsequent shareholder approval at the Company’s extraordinary general meeting in November. The transaction establishes a fully integrated company with a first-of-its-kind ecosystem, uniting precision digital neurotherapeutics, pharmacological treatments, cutting-edge devices, data, and an AI-powered platform, positioned to redefine neurological care and change patient lives.

While neuro-rehabilitation requires intensive, repetitive training for functional recovery, traditional healthcare systems often fail to deliver adequate therapy, leaving millions of patients without optimal treatment. MindMaze Therapeutics seeks to address this gap by providing clinically proven neurotherapeutics to support their recovery journey, from hospital to rehab center to their home.”

“Today begins a new chapter for MindMaze Therapeutics,” commented Walid Hanna, Chairman of the Board of Directors of MindMaze Therapeutics. “The company is founded on clinically validated innovation, and driven by a mission to transform neurological care, addressing a critical and persistent gap in motor and cognition restorations in neurological conditions. We are now focused on advancing our precision neurotherapeutics platform to deliver impact at scale. Relief’s complementary capabilities and biopharmaceutical assets strengthen our growth strategy, supporting both drug-digital integration and expanding development opportunities.”

MindMaze Therapeutics acquired NeuroX through a share exchange in which all outstanding shares of NeuroX were contributed by its former shareholders in exchange for 140,000,000 newly issued ordinary shares of the Company. These new shares will be admitted to trading and listing on the SIX Swiss Exchange today, in accordance with the approved prospectus and applicable regulations. Effective immediately, all listed ordinary shares of the Company will trade under the updated ticker symbol MMTX. Following the transaction, the total number of outstanding shares amounts to 152,602,044, excluding treasury shares.
