GENEVA, SWITZERLAND – Media OutReach – 29 September 2022 –On September 29, TRON founder Justin Sun attended the 2022 Milken Institute Asia Summit, where he had an in-depth conversation with Curtis S. Chin, Chair of the Asia Center, about issues including crypto technologies and the digital economy. This dialogue was also live-streamed globally on the official platform.
During the conversation, Sun suggested that there is huge space for the growth of cryptocurrencies. Over 100 million wallets have been created on the TRON blockchain over the past 5 years, but with its ambition to cover 7 billion users worldwide, TRON needs to expand further financial inclusion so that every user feels secure on the chain. He believes that blockchain inherently has financial attributes and, if used properly, will be more efficient and secure than traditional financial tools. With the help of blockchain, the public may easily access financial services and enjoy quick transfers at low cost, while regulators can trace every transaction.
Meanwhile, Sun also suggested that there are currently far more technologies focusing on the virtual world rather than the real one. But the construction of virtual and real worlds are equally important. He promised to put more effort into space exploration in the future, using the profits made from the virtual world to help discover the real one.
Hosted by the Milken Institute, a U.S.-based non-profit, non-partisan think tank, the Milken Institute Asia Summit is now in its ninth year. Themed “The World Transformed”, the Summit aimed to thrust reforms and build a safer, more inclusive, and sustainable future. Institutions, including SoftBank, Bank of America, Ernst & Young, and TRON, were invited to the Summit. Apart from Justin Sun and other leading figures in the crypto industry, Nicholas Burns, US Ambassador to China, Abdulla Al-Kuwari, Head of Qatar Investment Authority Advisory (Asia Pacific), and Andrew Cross, CFO at Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, presented at the Summit, too.
Justin Sun also participated in the 2021 Summit, where he joined a panel discussion themed on “Crypto’s Continuing Chronicles” with industry veterans, including Sopnendu Mohanty, Chief Fintech Officer at Monetary Authority of Singapore, and Gerald Goh, co-founder and CEO at Sygnum. Sun commented in the forum, “Blockchain is able to knock down the barriers between countries and is friendlier and more efficient than SWIFT.”
Justin Sun, a torchbearer in the digital economy sphere, founded TRON in 2017. Boasting over 113 million users, TRON is now among the world’s top three public chains and leading the way on tracks including NFT, DeFi, and distributed storage protocols. The network is showing remarkable resilience in the current market downturn. DefiLlama, the world’s largest TVL aggregator for DeFi, reported that as of mid-September, with a TVL hitting $5.4 billion, TRON ranked the second in public chains by TVL. Moreover, TRON has been recognized as “one of the most environmentally friendly blockchains” by Crypto Carbon Ratings Institute (CCRI), showcasing how its high energy efficiency and low energy consumption are keeping it in the leading position in the industry.
In late 2021, Sun was appointed as Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Grenada to the WTO. He said that during his tenure, he would proactively promote the integration of cryptocurrencies and sovereign states to build a new financial system that is secure, efficient, and inclusive. Moreover, he would also leverage his experience in the field of digital industry for a joint response to the new challenges regarding digital transformation in the post-pandemic era.

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES – EQS Newswire – 29 September 2022 – It has been reported that Dubai is the most profitable city in the world for Airbnb hosts[i], but with this comes a myriad of challenges for property owners such as managing housekeeping, guests’ noise levels, pricing properties correctly and ensuring personalisation. To minimise these challenges and help more people take advantage of this lucrative opportunity, short term rental management company Propr (https://www.Propr.ae), has launched an all-encompassing tech-based solution to streamline operations and give hosts peace of mind.
Levelling up short-term rental management with tech
With the company’s co-founders, Chregan O’Flynn and Max Urban having backgrounds in tech, they saw that most short-term rental operators utilised off-the-shelf software applications to cobble together a working property management system. The problem with this is that hosts need to find workarounds to stitch these disjointed pieces together which then impacts the guest experience.
It is for this reason that the Propr team developed their own property management system. “The goal,” says O’Flynn, “has always been to automate those elements that can be automated and give our team tools to make them superhumanly more effective, resulting in a better guest experience. This is vital as a happy guest leaves a good review, which leads to more bookings, meaning happier property owners who trust us with their properties.”
Digital solutions transform market challenges
To tackle the issue of housekeeping management, Propr developed an app to remotely monitor and manage cleaning in real time using input and images from the housekeepers to ensure that the standards pre-set for each rental unit are met. “In the past, housekeepers would have to cross off cleaning checklists manually, but now the process has been simplified and made customisable for each property,” shares Urban.
Regarding noise control, he explains that guests are typically on holiday or in town on business and can be loud. “This can cause issues as neighbours sometimes complain. We make use of technology integrated with noise monitoring sensors to send automated and instant notifications to the guests as well as to the owner to alert them to any breaches in noise levels.”
As there are fluctuating variables when it comes to pricing a property, Propr has developed an automated real-time pricing algorithm. Urban points out that this creates a set price point for each property every month that is adjusted daily according to the market.
When it comes to personalisation, one of the ways that Propr has managed to get the balance right is by automating highly structured communication to give their team more opportunity to spend quality time with guests such as when planning a custom itinerary. “We also use tech to flag certain key words like ‘anniversary’ or ‘birthday’ and then notify our guest experience team to do something special for that guest,” notes O’Flynn.
The future of hospitality is tech enabled
Going forward, the entrepreneurs will be developing even more top-line tech tools to meet the needs of tomorrow’s travellers and short-term rental owners. “The key is to use tech in a way that adds to the guests’ experience, rather than making them feel that they are dealing with robots. At every step of the journey, tech can help make the experience better,” concludes Urban.
Propr is a short-term rental management company operating 500+ properties (including two aparthotels) across Cape Town, Johannesburg and Dubai. The company is Marriott-approved and has partnered with them on their Homes & Villas division. Propr is also the only management company in MEA with a direct API partnership with Airbnb.

Over 800 volunteers from six countries collected 6,000 kg of garbage on International Coastal Clean-up Day 2022
The two companies aim to help reduce plastic waste and protect the marine life across the MEA region, India, and Pakistan
DHL and Hapag-Lloyd signed an agreement to help decarbonize the logistics industry by using advanced biofuels for transporting DHL shipments
SINGAPORE – Media OutReach – 29 September 2022 – To mark this year’s International Coastal Clean-up (ICC) Day, teams from DHL Global Forwarding Middle East & Africa, India, and Pakistan partnered with shipping operator Hapag-Lloyd Middle East to pull 6,000 kg of trash from coastlines across six countries. Using the tagline, ‘Turning the tide on trash’, the two companies joined forces to help reduce plastic pollution and protect marine life. Over 800 volunteers from both companies rallied to clean up coastlines in Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Dubai, India, and Pakistan. The initiative also formed part of DHL’s social impact initiatives that support the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and formed part of the Group’s annual Global Volunteering Day.
Over 800 volunteers from six countries collected 6,000 kg of garbage on International Coastal Clean-up Day 2022
Kelvin Leung, CEO of DHL Global Forwarding Asia Pacific, said, “True to our purpose of connecting people, improving lives, every effort in protecting our oceans and coastlines is one step closer to a greener future. This coastal clean-up is made more meaningful because we’ve joined hands with a like-minded partner Hapag-Lloyd. Decarbonizing the world’s oceans is a mission that we have to keep pressing on as we work together with partners, customers, and the industry to achieve net zero carbon by 2050.”
Amadou Diallo, CEO of DHL Global Forwarding Middle East & Africa, said, “Protecting the planet is our responsibility. DHL Global Forwarding is taking ownership through its GoGreen Plus service, which is part of our sustainability roadmap towards net zero logistics emissions by 2050. Cleaning up the oceans will keep marine life intact and preserve our planet for future generations.”
International Coastal Clean-up Day is the largest drive of its kind since launching in 1986. It has since galvanized over 6 million clean-up volunteers in over 100 countries. Each year thousands of tons of garbage make their way to the oceans, with plastics constituting at least 60%. The polluted water harms the marine ecosystem and humans and impacts the livelihoods of those working at sea. Tourism and recreation also suffer, causing significant economic damage to many countries.
To showcase its commitment to the ICC initiative, DHL volunteers on the day wore t-shirts made of recycled plastic. Producing each t-shirt requires 25 plastic bottles of 500ml.
Key activities included the arrangement of separate bins in workspaces and communities, coordinating the collection and depositing of waste at recycling plants, and commissioning the production of items made from recycled material.
For example, in Kenya, the recycling plant will produce buckets, basins, jerrycans and plumbing products from plastic waste. Ghana will turn the waste into recycled plastic lumber to construct benches.
Dheeraj Bhatia, Senior Managing Director of Hapag-Lloyd Middle East and Africa, said, “Decarbonization is the top focus in the sustainable development of our industry. It is also vital that we pay adequate attention to sustainable living on the landside and our surroundings through efforts such as the one we recently took jointly with DHL.
“Such initiatives not only help protect our surroundings but also reiterate how much we all still need to do. Even individually, we can make a difference. Our objective is to ensure our human capital is geared towards a sustainable future and that we achieve net zero carbon by 2045.”
Decarbonizing agreement
DHL Global Forwarding and Hapag-Lloyd have a shared vision of decarbonizing container shipping and logistics. As a result, they signed an agreement earlier this year to use advanced biofuels for the transportation of DHL shipments. As a first step, Hapag-Lloyd will initially ship 18,000 TEU containers of DHL’s volume.
Dominique von Orelli, Global Head of Ocean Freight at DHL Global Forwarding, said, “The challenge of decarbonizing heavy transport demands a rethink by the entire industry. In Hapag-Lloyd we found, to our delight, a partner that shares our ambitions for a carbon-neutral world as embodied in the Paris agreement. Together we can implement mechanisms that will make it easier for shippers to use sustainable fuels.”
The agreement demonstrates the scalability of sustainable transport solutions and the application of sustainable fuels in today’s market. As pioneers, both DHL and Hapag-Lloyd are pledging for a uniform industry standard, following the insetting approach.
Danny Smolders, Managing Director of Global Sales at Hapag-Lloyd, added, “Signing the advanced biofuel agreement with DHL is a big step towards a greener future. Biofuel will play a significant role in our journey to reach net zero by 2045. The project brings us a step closer to commercializing biofuel-powered transportation and supporting our customers in their decarbonization efforts.”
