BANGKOK, Oct. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Across the Asia-Pacific, millions of girls face barriers that limit their potential — and change cannot wait. Dr. Christina Warning, a distinguished alumna of Chulalongkorn University and Asia-Pacific Team Leader for Plan International in Germany, has dedicated her career to one mission: amplifying “the woman’s voice, the girl’s voice.”

“The woman’s voice, the girl’s voice, that’s what keeps me going.”

Her work bridges continents and communities, connecting individuals, women, and people from diverse backgrounds with opportunities to share their perspectives and influence societies such as Germany. At the same time, she empowers women and communities to participate, travel, and make their voices heard — proving that one person’s commitment can ripple into global change.

For Dr. Warning, leadership begins with a simple yet powerful truth: believing in yourself.

“The most important quality to improve gender equality is actually believing in yourself — and giving a chance to everybody in society,” she says.

Progress Made — and the Challenges Ahead

Drawing from her work in countries such as Bangladesh, Nepal, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Solomon Islands, she highlights the biggest pressures facing girls in the Asia-Pacific region: poverty, limited opportunities for participation, and health-related challenges. She shares one example from Cambodia: while more children now attend school, remote areas still lack qualified teachers. As a result, young women often leave home early to work, many ending up in garment factories instead of pursuing better opportunities. Her stories reveal both the urgency and the potential for meaningful change.

Even as progress unfolds, millions of girls are still left behind. Despite the challenges, Dr. Warning has witnessed real change: many governments have passed laws protecting children and LGBTQ+ communities, creating more rights and freedoms than ever before. Yet she warns of a widening gap: “There’s a rise in inequality — the very rich and the very poor.”

Stereotypes continue to hold girls back. Sometimes it starts at home, when mothers tell their daughters: “Know your own circle, and stay in that circle.” Dr. Warning’s insights reveal the complex balance between progress and persistent societal barriers — a call to action for all who care about equality.

Why Men Must Join the Movement

For Dr. Warning, inclusivity is non-negotiable.

“Most importantly, we must bring everyone into the conversation—particularly men,” she says.

“Most importantly, we must bring everyone
into the conversation—particularly men”

“Engaging men helps them understand the challenges society faces, particularly those that may affect their own daughters or children.” Her vision highlights that lasting change is only possible when everyone takes part in the conversation.

Bridging Borders, Empowering Communities

At Plan International, Dr. Warning leads initiatives that build cross-border connections. In one program between Cambodia and Laos, women gained new farming techniques, which they later applied in their communities to strengthen food security and improve livelihoods.

Her initiatives give women, men, and diverse communities a platform to participate, make decisions, and and drive social change. Through these programs, she turns ideas into action — and action into lasting impact.

Inspiring the Next Generation of Leaders

Dr. Warning’s greatest motivation comes from seeing her colleagues and community members “thrive and develop.” Her advice to young leaders is simple yet powerful: “Don’t be afraid. Believe in yourself. Even if you think the difference you make is small, it counts.”

Learning the World the Asian Way

Her leadership skills and perspective were shaped long before her fieldwork — rooted in her transformative years at Chulalongkorn University. Dr. Warning fondly recalls her five years at Chula — one year in Southeast Asian Studies and four years completing her Ph.D. in Thai Studies. Drawn to the university’s reputation, she was inspired by professors who nurtured her curiosity, especially a female mentor who became her doctoral supervisor.

Reflecting on her time at Chula, she says the greatest value was the perspective it offered. “Gaining an Asian way of seeing the world was a tremendous asset,” she recalls. Those insights continue to guide her work and the way she tackles challenges today.

Her leadership, shaped by years of fieldwork and her academic journey at Chula, has made her a powerful advocate for gender equality and inclusive development across the region.

About Chulalongkorn University

Chulalongkorn University has made the world’s top 50 university list for employment outcomes, which reflects both the high employment rate and work ability of Chula graduates. The university is also listed as the best in Thailand for the 15th Consecutive Year (since 2009), according to the newly released QS World University Rankings 2024, putting Chula at 211th in the world, up from 244th last year.

WUHU, China, Oct. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In the new era of intelligent electrification, how should elegance be defined? As a new energy brand under Chery Group, LEPAS positions itself as the “Preferred Brand for Elegant Mobility Life,” pioneering a new category of “Elegant Driving.” Safety is the cornerstone of Elegant Driving.

Malaysia’s Department of Survey and Mapping enhances field productivity and real-time data accuracy with Getac rugged tablets

TAIPEI, Oct. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Getac Technology Corporation (Getac), a leading provider of rugged computing and mobile video solutions and a manufacturer with advanced in-house capabilities, has announced that its rugged F110 tablets have been successfully deployed by the Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia (JUPEM) as part of the Project Geospatial Data Acquisition System (GDAS) modernisation initiative. The project enhances JUPEM’s capability to deliver timely, accurate geospatial data across a wide range of terrains and conditions.

JUPEM plays a critical role in Malaysia’s national development through accurate surveying, boundary determination, and mapping services. Its operations span remote and challenging field environments, including dense forests, urban centres, and coastal regions.

JUPEM deployed Getac’s F110 fully rugged tablet across its field operations to address these challenges. The device is engineered for harsh field conditions and offers dual hot-swappable batteries, glove-compatible touchscreens, and sunlight-readable displays. These features, combined with real-time data integration capabilities, let field teams collect, process, and share geospatial data without interruption, even during extended fieldwork.

Jerry Huang, Vice President of Getac Technology Corporation, said, “JUPEM’s adoption of the F110 showcases how rugged mobility solutions can power critical national infrastructure projects. Getac’s collaboration with JUPEM reflects our ongoing commitment to helping frontline professionals overcome the barriers of extreme environments, unlock real-time insights, and deliver high-quality outcomes through dependable technology.”

Shamsul Masrin Bin Saidin, Surveyor, JUPEM, clarified, “With the use of the Getac rugged device, our efficiency has greatly improved. Work can now be done quickly and on-site, and we are able to collaborate with the office team more effectively. The Getac F110 device is perfect for use under scorching heat because the screen remains easy to read. In addition, the battery lasts long and is easy to replace while work is ongoing.”

Seamless integration with real-time geospatial systems

The Getac F110 integrates seamlessly with JUPEM’s broader GDAS platform, which supports the agency’s strategic move toward automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and satellite-based data acquisition. The platform supports real-time decision-making, reduces manual processes, and improves operational safety and continuity during field assignments.

LSr Dr. Haji Ahmad Sanusi Bin Che Cob, Deputy Director General of Survey and Mapping, JUPEM, stated, “One of the key applications at JUPEM involves conducting fieldwork using heavy-duty surveying and ICT equipment. Our surveyors are now better equipped to handle on-site challenges, including sudden changes in weather conditions. The GDAS system allows for rapid response, enhances safety, and ensures uninterrupted operations. It plays a critical role in our efforts to meet the growing demand for geospatial data. Today, users expect data that is accurate, up-to-date, and delivered quickly. With this system, JUPEM can significantly improve operational efficiency and data management”.

Getac’s rugged mobility solution was supported by its comprehensive bumper-to-bumper warranty and extensive training program. This holistic approach meant that JUPEM surveyors were fully equipped to use the new hardware in the field with minimal disruption to existing workflows. The close collaboration helped maintain business continuity throughout the rollout.

LSr Saiful Wazlan Bin Wahab, Director of Survey, Coordinating and Mapping Policy Division, JUPEM, mentioned, “This implementation has had a significantly positive impact.” LSr Saiful Wazlan Bin Wahab, Director of Survey, Coordinating and Mapping Policy Division, JUPEM, added, “It has led to a reduction in equipment failure rates and downtime, enhanced operational efficiency, and ensured smoother fieldwork even in extreme weather conditions. Surveyors also benefit greatly from the real-time data connectivity and the ability to process data on-site, as it minimizes the need to return to the office to complete tasks.”

Futureproofing national infrastructure through reliable technology

JUPEM experienced immediate operational benefits, including faster data processing, improved collaboration between field and office teams, and a reduction in equipment failures. These gains directly support Malaysia’s ambitions to streamline national planning and infrastructure development through better data.

Nik Sin Bin Nik Man, surveyor, JUPEM, said, “After using the Getac rugged device, I noticed many changes in terms of workflow. The accuracy of the Getac F110 is crucial for topographic mapping. Its durable design truly holds up in extreme situations, whether it’s the weather or terrain conditions. One feature I really like is that I can use the touchscreen even while wearing gloves. Most importantly, we can share data in real-time.”

JUPEM continues to invest in digital transformation and geospatial innovation as part of its long-term strategic vision. The agency is using Getac technology to strengthen its geospatial capabilities and deliver accurate, reliable data for urban planning, environmental management, and national development.
