Of Dreams & Knowledge (Asia) Presents A New Sustainable Nutrition Solution, MILESTONE®

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 21 November 2022 – Should there be a debate about which is more valuable, natural or synthetic nutrients, Of Dreams & Knowledge (Asia) would tell you that it would be that of naturally-occurring nutrients. This conclusion is MILESTONE®, the bio-functional food brand that arrived after countless years of research into the subject. Backed by the belief that prevention is better than cure — MILESTONE® is proud to present its new line of olive oils that are geared towards adapting to an individual’s genes to enrich and maximize the body’s potential to fend off chronic ailments.

Years of Dedicated Research

MILESTONE® stands out as a health food solution that addresses the deficiencies in today’s nutrition in a completely natural way, without the use of synthetic nutrients. It is through the carefully calibrated formulas of complementary active ingredients that aid in boosting the body’s natural responses, effectively treating ailments in a preventative manner.

A New Paradigm Towards Preventative Nutrition

Take the MILESTONE®‘s proprietary blend of medical graded 100% High Phenolic Olive Oil series for instance. Carefully formulated and enriched with naturally-found nutrients in its ingredients, this series of olive oils aims to treat ailments before they become chronic.

With its high concentration of polyphenols, the Medical Grade 100% High Phenolic Olive Oil Exclusive Vegan Hybrid contributes to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress. In addition, this formula is rich in Omega 3 (ALA), Omega 6 and Omega 9 (oleic acid) fatty acids, with natural hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol bioactive compounds, without additives or preservatives. As more Singaporeans adopt intermittent fasting practices, a vital compound known as Oleuropein can activate cell autophagy. Autophagy is the process where the body reuses old damaged cells which make the body less insulin-resistant, resulting in the burning of unwanted fat which promotes optimal weight maintenance. Thus, this is the ideal food for diabetes and food for inflammation, it is the first medical-grade olive oil in the world to be awarded three health claims.

The Medical Grade High Phenolic Olive with Vegan Algae D3 Oil is another remarkable formulation by MILESTONE®. Apart from its antioxidant properties derived from the high polyphenol concentration, it is also the first medical grade olive oil to be enriched with Vitamin D3 found in algae — providing almost fifty times more antioxidants, effectively creating an immunity booster for the body. This makes it ideal as a food for vitamin D3, food for immunity, food for bones and food for kids formula.

Lastly, the Medical Grade High Phenolic Olive with Vegan Algae Omega3 Oil (EPA + DHA + ALA) is not only rich in Omega 3 (EPA+DHA+ALA), Omega 6 and Omega 9 (oleic acid) fatty acids as the other bottles are, but it is also sustainably sourced from the purest form of algae that is efficiently cultivated in indoor fermentation pools. Perfect as a Food for Brain and Food for Heart formula, it is beneficial for the reduction of cholesterol and high blood pressure without side effects and interactions.

A Sustainable Solution for Humanity and the Environment

Beyond organic is the philosophy that MILESTONE® upholds. With quality standards that go beyond how and where an ingredient is grown. As such, MILESTONE® seeks to confirm the purity and potency of ingredients after harvest to guarantee that the final finished product is free of more than 800 chemical contaminants.

With most supplemental health solutions, there often lies the risk of missing out a step from time to time. However, MILESTONE® products are made to be a sustainable practice that are easily integrated into daily life. For instance, simply consume the recommended daily portion (10ml) of the Medical Grade 100% High Phenolic Olive Oil Exclusive Vegan Hybrid first thing in the morning and never miss a step for the rest of your day.

Yuexiu Transport passes resolution by a vast majority of votes at special general meeting on acquisition of Lanwei Expressway

Further expand business presence in Central China and continue to enhance toll revenue and profit contribution

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 18 November 2022 – Yuexiu Transport Infrastructure Limited (“Yuexiu Transport” or the “Company”; stock code: 01052) today held a special general meeting to pass resolution on the acquisition of 100% of equity interests in the company which operates Lanwei Expressway in Henan Province from Guangzhou Yuexiu Holdings Limited at a total consideration of RMB1.098 billion. The resolution was passed by a vast majority votes of 99.98%.

Upon completion of acquisition of Lanwei Expressway, the project will continuously contribute to the Company’s toll revenue and profit, and increase the earnings per share starting from 2023. The internal rate of return of the acquisition is expected to reach 9.5%, which is rare in the current economic environment. The Company intends to finance the total consideration by internal resources and bank loan for acquisition while the gearing ratio will only slightly increase from 48.4% to 52.5%, which does not affect the Company’s financial stability. After the announcement, both Moody’s and Fitch issued the press releases and stated that the Lanwei acquisition will have no impact on Yuexiu Transport’s credit profile.

Over the years, Yuexiu Transport has been grasping the strategic opportunity of “promoting the rise of Central China”, continuing to explore projects in high quality in Central China region. Up to now, it has successfully acquired seven projects in Henan, Hubei, and Hunan, forming a development paradigm of “gaining a foothold in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and developing in Central China region”. This acquisition of Lanwei Expressway is another asset expansion for the Company to enter the Central China region. After the acquisition, the asset scale, revenue scale and profitability will be further enhanced, while the toll mileage of the Company’s controlled expressways will increase from 495.2 km to 556.23 km, representing an increment of approximately 12.3%.

Lanwei Expressway has been in operation for nearly 17 years since it opened to traffic in 2005. It has a total mileage of 61.03 km while the expressway networks connecting to Lanwei Expressway are all very mature and stable. The Company is optimistic about the economic development in Central China in the long run. The acquisition of Lanwei Expressway aligns with the Company’s strategy of developing in the Central China region and the Company believes that Lanwei Expressway, located in the core development areas of the Central Chinese Plain city clusters, will continue to benefit from the regional strategic developments such as the “Rise of Central China” as well as the construction of the Central Chinese Plain city clusters and the Zhengzhou Metropolitan Area. At the same time, the connection between Lanwei Expressway and Weixu Expressway, a project wholly-owned by the Company, fosters a more united and consistent approach of operation management and facilitates the Company to set up a district-based management and control model, which can provide economies of scale and enhance management efficiency.

Yuexiu Transport expresses that the acquisition will enhance its shareholders’ value and replenish the Company’s quality asset portfolio after the spin-off and listing of Han-Xiao Expressway though the public offering of Expressway REIT. After the establishment of REITs platform, Yuexiu Transport will proactively pursue quality project reserve and strike a balance between “investment and divestment of the assets”. The asset injection of Lanwei Expressway to the listed company is a major initiative of the Company’s development strategy in 14th Five-Year Plan, which allows the Company to consistently promote the interactions of the three platforms.

Bybit CEO Lays Out His Transparency Roadmap

Ben Zhou speaks out about transparency, and why a blockchain-based world is inevitable

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES – Media OutReach – 18 November 2022 – Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit, the world’s third most visited crypto exchange, has called on the industry to step up together and help reassure nervous customers and governments that crypto is a valuable contributor to the financial system and has a central part to play in the future of financial services.

Zhou made his remarks after laying out a comprehensive framework designed to re-establish trust and commit to comprehensive, industry-wide transparency. Zhou also looked to manage expectations by highlighting that a robust, comprehensive, proof-of-reserves program would need time to develop and could not be created, installed, and implemented overnight.

“Bybit is committed to an industry-wide, fully transparent proof-of-reserves (PoR) solution that demonstrates without a doubt that we hold our client’s funds in custody, and are worthy of their full trust — and that is what we are working on,” said Zhou.

Zhou highlighted the complexity of crypto businesses in terms of scale, scope, and reach, noting that it will take some months for Bybit to complete and provide a comprehensive and true picture of its accounts that is acceptable to every stakeholder and helps re-establish trust — rather than patchy information that could ultimately confuse.

He believed that exchanges must be proactive in creating a new type of transparency, one that improves on those used by traditional financial institutions, which still remain opaque and backward.

The proper way to achieve this is to take a snapshot of all the clients’ UID and balance; package that so it fits into a Merkle tree; send the tree to an independent auditor, and then work with them to verify the numbers. The final step: provide our wallet address and test it to show the auditor that we own the address.

He said Bybit is now engaged in developing this fully transparent solution to show its reserves in real-time using an independently-audited Merkle tree. Bybit is also engaging a reputable auditor to prove its reserves and audit the company’s books and operations.

Zhou reiterated, “To us, proof-of-reserves is a fully transparent solution that proves our clients’ funds are in custody — that is what we are working on.”

This has been a difficult time for many in the industry — customers and many players have been betrayed and deceived by the magnitude of recent events.

He reassured clients that Bybit’s mission, as the Crypto Ark, is to provide true value and live up to customer trust and confidence. Bybit has always been a supporter of affordable and accessible financial access for all.

Zhou also struck a defiant tone. “The crypto community is stronger than one rogue actor and provides many benefits over traditional financial markets. We are at the forefront of financial innovation, and with the continued support of our customers, we will continue to be so.

It is an essential component in creating battery supply autonomy for VinFast EVs and VinES’s development goal to become the preeminent energy solutions company. Located next to the VinES battery pack manufacturing in the Vung Ang Economic Zone, this new factory will complete the closed loop production of LFP Batteries in Vietnam, thereby improving localization for VinFast’s EVs and optimizing production efficiency.

I firmly believe that the battery factory will boost the development of Vietnam’s new energy industry with the cooperation of both sides, and jointly contribute to the energy revolution and climate friendliness of human society.”

The facility will be the first LFP battery plant in Vietnam and will begin mass production in the third quarter of 2024 and is expected to create approximately 500 new jobs for the local community. This is an important part in Vingroup’s “3-prong” battery strategy: (1) Buying batteries from the world’s best manufacturers, (2) Cooperating with partners to produce the world’s best batteries and (3) In-house battery production research and development.

In December 2021, VinES started constructing a battery manufacturing and packaging factory with a scale of 8 hectares (20 acres) in the first phase, and a total investment of VND 4,000 billion. After 11 months of construction, the factory is in the final stages of completion and will begin operations in December 2022, producing Lithium batteries for VinFast electric vehicles and e-buses.
