MANADO, Indonesia, July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia International (Telin), a subsidiary of PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (Telkom), proudly announces the official launch of its new Cable Landing Station (CLS) in Kalasey, Minahasa. This milestone represents a major leap forward in Telin’s mission to enhance Indonesia’s international connectivity and digital infrastructure focusing on strengthening eastern regional zone.

With the launch of Cable Landing Station Manado-Minahasa, Indonesia accelerates eastern Indonesia connectivity and economic growth while stepping boldly into the digital future as a key Asia-Pacific connectivity hub, powering innovation and prosperity across the region.
With the launch of Cable Landing Station Manado-Minahasa, Indonesia accelerates eastern Indonesia connectivity and economic growth while stepping boldly into the digital future as a key Asia-Pacific connectivity hub, powering innovation and prosperity across the region.

The inauguration ceremony was attended by Telkom Group’s executive leadership, including CEO of CFU WIB Telkom Group – Honesti Basyir; President Commissioner of Telin – Muhammad Rofik; Telin Commissioner – Bambang A. Margono; Telin’s Board of Directors; Budi Satria Dharma Purba, Kharisma, Abdul Rahman Ansyory, and Doni Andriansyah; Business Director of GSD – Amini Kusumawati; Acting CEO of Telkom Infrastruktur – Slamet Riyanto; Operation Director of Telkom Akses – Ambari; and EVP of Telkom Regional V – Amin Soebagyo.

CLS Manado-Minahasa is a critical component of Bifrost Cable System, an international subsea cable project developed in partnership with Keppel and Meta. This cutting-edge system connects Southeast Asia directly to North America, bypassing traditional routes by traversing strategic maritime corridors such as the Java Sea and the Celebes Sea. This new path signi ficantly enhances Indonesia’s position within the global digital traffic network.

Since the Bifrost cable system kick off announcement in 2021, Telin has been achieving remarkable milestones — from selecting site location, holding the ground breaking ceremony in October 2024, successfully lands the cable in early 2025 and come to completing the overall CLS construction. Following the cable landing at Jakarta CLS last year, CLS Manado-Minahasa are now ready to be fully activated and integrated into Telkom’s network. Today, the station stands ready to power Indonesia’s digital future and support a growing number of international cable systems.

Honesti Basyir, CEO CFU WIB Telkom Group, highlighted the strategic vision behind this development, stating, “The Manado-Minahasa Cable Landing Station marks a bold step in positioning Indonesia as a vital digital gateway for the Asia-Pacific. By connecting directly across the Pacific via Bifrost and preparing for future cables, we are building the foundation for a more connected, innovative, and prosperous digital future for our nation and region.”

Budi Satria Dharma Purba, CEO of Telin, further emphasized, “The Manado Cable Landing Station is more than just infrastructure; it is a gateway for Indonesia to lead in the digital era. Supporting Bifrost and future cables, we are enabling greater connectivity, innovation, and economic opportunity across the Asia- Pacific region.”

Designed with advanced, scalable infrastructure, the CLS Manado-Minahasa can accommodate multiple submarine cable systems. Equipped with Beach Man Hole (BMH) integration and robust front-haul connections, it serves as an ideal landing point for future subsea cables and digital platforms.

The launch of the Manado-Minahasa Cable Landing Station represents far more than a physical connection —it is a beacon of Indonesia’s digital transformation. By supporting Bifrost and other upcoming international cable projects, this strategic asset will enhance regional connectivity, foster economic growth, and bolster Indonesia’s role as a vital hub in the global digital network.

SNACKS, PEP TALKS, AND SECRET CRIES: SURVEY REVEALS WHAT AUSTRALIANS REALLY DO IN THEIR CARS

By

BRISBANE, Australia, July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — New research released today from insurance provider Youi has revealed that for many Australians, their car is more than just a mode for transport – it’s a trusted companion, a safe space, and even a secret-keeper.

The Youi Car Confessions* study, which surveyed more than 2,000 Aussies, found nearly half (45%) of respondents say they have an emotional connection to their car, with younger generations leading the charge – 58% of Gen Z drivers admit to feeling emotionally attached to their vehicle.

According to the data, the majority of Aussies (92%) use their car for something other than driving, and 43% of us spend time in the car without going anywhere. The most reported non-driving activities include snacking (59%), making phone calls (60%), and just stopping to enjoy the view (64%).

From naming our cars to using them as a place to cry, vent, or simply escape, Youi’s Head of Product – Vehicle and Leisure, Marni Jackson said the findings paint a picture of a nation that sees their car as a personal sanctuary.

“Our cars have become an extension of ourselves – a place where we feel in control, safe, and even free to be vulnerable,” Marni said.

“The data highlights generational and gender differences – 67% of Gen Zs enjoy hanging out listening to music or podcasts in the car compared to 43% of Boomers. Interestingly, 36% of men like to nap in the car, compared to only 29% of women.

“From first drives to quiet moments of reflection, our cars are part of our life stories – and we’re proud to help Australians insure those stories every day. At Youi, we’ve always believed that insurance is about more than just covering a vehicle – it’s about understanding the people behind the wheel.

“Based on the data we’ve collected, we’ve created four unique ‘Car Personalities’ and Aussies can now take a quiz to find out exactly who they are behind the wheel. Simply go to our website to take the test,” she said.  

Aussie cars contain more than just secrets and memories 

According to the data, the most common items found in Aussie cars include blankets (36%), a change of clothes (24%) and toilet paper (23%). Gen Zs and Millennials are more likely to keep clothing, hobby materials, and stuffed toys in their car compared to Pre-Boomers and Boomers.

Aussies also believe their car has a personality of its own. A quarter of Aussies have given their car a pet name and 1 in 5 talks to their car, 13% even saying their car “knows all their secrets.”

When it comes to generational differences, 22% of Gen Z drivers like to give their cars pep talks when going up a hill and are also more likely than any other generation to have special memories attached to their cars – for 50% of Gen Z drivers, these include owning their own car for the first time or having their first solo drive (44%).

Consumer Behaviour Scientist and academic, Nathan Moore from the University of Technology Sydney, said that our emotional bonds to our cars develop for multiple reasons. These include their value in fulfilling our fundamental psychological needs, like freedom and safety, and the fond memories that we create with them. 

“Our emotional attachment to cars stems from their role as extensions of the self. They carry our memories, represent our freedom, and often reflect our identity. This connection deepens when we start to relate to cars almost as if they have personalities of their own. Our shared experiences with them, the way they feel to drive, the sounds they make, and their appearance can all evoke emotions and shape how we see them, not just as machines but as companions in our lives,” said Mr Moore. 

“The findings echo this, with roughly half of Australians reporting an emotional connection with their car. When asked about special memories attached to the cars they have owned, 42% of Aussies referenced the feeling of having their own car for the very first time. Whether it’s the first time someone completed a solo drive (27%), or new parents bringing home their baby for the first time (32%), our cars hold key memories from our lives.

“83% of Australians say they’re proud of their car, with many pointing to its reliability, sentimental value, or the hard work it took to make it their own. It’s no surprise, then, that people take good care of their cars. They’re a constant presence in our lives, helping us get where we need to go and supporting our everyday routines. For many, cars can feel like trusted companions. That might explain why 1 in 4 Australians has given their car a pet name, and nearly half describe it as having a gender,” he said.

From secret snack stashes to late-night cries, our cars have seen it all. To learn more about Aussie Car Confessions, or to take the quiz to find out your Car Personality, visit Youi’s Car Confessions hub here.

By nurturing talent and cultivating a high-impact culture, ONYX redefines hospitality excellence.


BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 22 July 2025 – ONYX Hospitality Group, a leading hospitality management company in Southeast Asia, specialising in luxury hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, and residences, underscores its commitment to human resource development, reaffirming its belief that “people” are at the core of the hospitality and service industry.

Putting People First: ONYX Hospitality Group's Strategy for Sustainable Leadership

The company is moving forward with a comprehensive human resource strategy, focusing on caring for, supporting, and developing employees to their fullest potential. This approach aims to deliver high-quality, sincere service experiences to customers, creating a strong competitive advantage and driving sustainable business growth. ONYX Hospitality Group aspires to become The Best Medium-sized Hospitality Management Company in Southeast Asia.

In recent years, ONYX Hospitality Group has earned recognition as a leading hospitality management company with a strong focus on human resource development. Its business strategy not only aims to position the organisation as a regional leader but also places people at the centre of its success. This commitment is reflected in numerous prestigious awards received both locally and internationally – highlighting ONYX’s dedication to nurturing the potential of its personnel at every level, in line with its mission to empower people and grow the business together, sustainably and steadily.

Ms Saranya Watanasirisuk, Senior Vice President of Human Resources at ONYX Hospitality Group, stated, “With our vision to become The Best Medium-sized Hospitality Management Company in Southeast Asia, ONYX Hospitality Group concentrates not only on expanding our business both domestically and internationally, but also on prioritising strategic human resource development.

That’s why we place great importance on supporting every stage of the Employee Life Cycle with care, encompassing both workplace welfare and quality of life, from the very first day an individual joins the company to the moment they achieve their career goals.”

Driven by the belief that “people” are the cornerstone of the service industry, ONYX Hospitality Group has established a comprehensive human resource strategy—covering every aspect from talent selection and potential development to career advancement and long-term growth support.

Recruiting the Right Talent, Creating Differentiated Experiences

One key approach emphasised by ONYX Hospitality Group is the careful selection of personnel who possess a genuine “service mindset” and a personality that aligns with the distinct identities of its brands—Amari, OZO, Shama, and Oriental Residence. The company believes that individuals with a heartfelt commitment to service and a clear understanding of each brand’s essence can naturally embody and convey the brand’s identity, delivering the best possible experience to guests.

ONYX Academy: Strategically Developing High-Performance Talent

Recently, ONYX Academy received four prestigious honours at the EXA: Employee Experience Awards 2025 Thailand, including: Best Management Training Programme from the GM (General Manager) Track, which emphasises the comprehensive development of general managers; Best Career Development Programme from The NextYou initiative, designed to cultivate emerging leaders; Best In-House Certification Programme from the ONYX HR Development Program, which empowers HR leaders in hotels to become strategic business partners; and Best ESG Programme in recognition of ONYX’s commitment to driving Sustainably Crafted Hospitality. These four awards reflect ONYX Hospitality Group and ONYX Academy’s ongoing and dedicated efforts to enhance the capabilities and potential of every employee.

Fostering Success Through a Flexible Corporate Culture

In addition, a key factor supporting employee success is a corporate culture rooted in “dynamism” and “openness.” This culture encourages employees to think boldly and act confidently, share new ideas, and experiment with innovative approaches to help the organisation grow. Guided by the belief that “every voice can drive the organisation forward,” ONYX promotes active participation in organisational development and change—adapting swiftly to evolving business and social landscapes—with strong backing from an executive team that deeply understands both its people and the business environment.

“We believe that focusing on ‘people‘ is the foundation for delivering the best experiences and service. The success of ONYX Hospitality Group’s human resource management is rooted in the unwavering support of all executives, who empower our employees to grow in every dimension—from recruitment and creating a robust learning system to designing a supportive environment, encouraging experimentation and learning from mistakes, and providing platforms for employees to fully showcase their potential. With this foundation, ONYX Hospitality Group has become not only a sought-after employer but also a trusted organisation where customers and guests across all our brands are confident they will receive the highest quality service from our dedicated and talented employees,” said Ms Saranya.

Today, ONYX Hospitality Group stands not only as a leader in managing luxury hotels, resorts, serviced apartments, and residences across Southeast Asia but also as an organisation deeply committed to its people.
