Alpro Pharmacy and OMRON Healthcare Unite to Combat Fake BP Monitors

Free Blood Pressure Monitor Accuracy Check Nationwide

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Jan. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Hypertension, or high blood pressure, affects 3 in 10 Malaysians, making it a prevalent health concern in the country (National Health and Morbidity Survey, 2019). Of the 3, only 2 are aware of their condition, while the other remains undiagnosed, highlighting a critical gap in health awareness and screening. According to the National Health and Morbidity Survey 2023, more than half (or 52%) of the total people affected do not have their blood pressure under control.

This reflects a pressing issue not only in early detection but also in effective management. Compounding the problem is the presence of counterfeit or substandard blood pressure (BP) monitors in the consumer market, leading to inaccurate readings and improper self-management. Ensuring reliable monitoring and raising awareness among the public is essential to combating this silent epidemic in Malaysia.

In line with efforts to promote better hypertension management, Alpro Pharmacy, Malaysia’s largest community pharmacy chain, has entered into a strategic partnership with OMRON Healthcare, a global leader in blood pressure monitoring. This collaboration aims to provide Malaysians with access to accurate BP monitoring services and raise public awareness on the importance of reliable home blood pressure monitoring.

Ph. Lim En Ni, Chief Pharmacist & Engagement Director of Alpro Pharmacy, said, “To control hypertension effectively, having a blood pressure monitor at home is crucial, and the accuracy of the monitor plays a significant role in achieving better health outcomes. Through this partnership with OMRON, we are proud to offer free accuracy checks for BP monitors at our outlets nationwide, including Sabah and Sarawak, ensuring that our customers can rely on their devices for precise readings and informed healthcare decisions.”

This service is already available to the public, with Alpro and OMRON providing authorized BP meter accuracy checks to verify the reliability of BP monitors. Additionally, this initiative includes a research project aimed at understanding the benefits of home BP monitoring. The findings will be used to further educate the public and promote reliable monitoring as an essential preventive healthcare measure.

Andre Van Gils, Senior General Manager, Global Sales and Marketing Group HQ, OMRON Healthcare Co., Ltd., said, “We are delighted to collaborate with Alpro Pharmacy to enhance public awareness of accurate home BP monitoring. Accurate readings are essential for effective hypertension management, and we look forward to making reliable BP monitors and services more accessible to Malaysians. This is another step forward in realizing our ‘Going for Zero, Preventive Care for the Health of Society’ vision that aims to enhance cardiovascular health awareness and prevent incidents.”

Ph. Lim En Ni concluded, “At Alpro, our mission is to empower the community with better health knowledge and services. This initiative aligns with our tagline, Reassurance that brings Smile, and our vision to create a healthy and vibrant world. By promoting accurate home BP monitoring, we hope to reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and improve overall health outcomes in Malaysia.”

JBS and partners donate 3 million tags to improve livestock traceability in Pará

Company Unveils Program to Support Farmers in Livestock Tagging

DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — JBS, in partnership with key stakeholders, has announced the donation of 3 million livestock tags to enhance cattle traceability in Pará, Brazil. Additionally, the company launched a program designed to assist farmers with the application of the tags. These initiatives aim to scale up a groundbreaking project led by the State of Pará with the potential to revolutionize livestock management in Brazil. The goal: to track every head of cattle in Pará — the state with Brazil’s second-largest herd—by the end of 2026.


The announcement was made during the panel discussion, “From Davos to Belém: Defining Brazil’s Path to a Sustainable, Low-Carbon Cattle Industry,” at the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos. The program, already delivering significant results in its first year, represents a collaborative effort between government, producers, civil society, and industry leaders. “Together, we are agents of transformation across the supply chain,” said Gilberto Tomazoni, JBS Global CEO.

Out of the 3 million tags, 2 million are allocated exclusively to small-scale producers, addressing half of their projected 2025 needs in the state. Of this total, 2 million tags will be donated by coalition partner The Nature Conservancy (TNC) using funds from the Bezos Earth Fund, who committed at COP28 to support the state in launching the program, with the remaining tags provided by JBS. 

In 2024, JBS conducted a 28,000-head tagging pilot program in its Marabá and Redenção facilities. This pilot helped evaluate the technology and ensure compliance with animal transit requirements set by the working group. Insights from the pilot have been shared with coalition partners to support large-scale implementation. For more information, see link.

Acrobatics “Wind, Forest, Fire and the Mountain”

On January 27th, 2024 Shandong Spring Festival Gala will be broadcast. Acrobatics “Wind, Forest, Fire and the Mountain” showcases the marching principles in The Art of War by Sun Tzu through acrobatic moves: “As fast as the wind, as quiet as the forest, as aggressive as the fire, as firm as the mountain. The Art of War by Sun Tzu is an important representative of ancient Chinese thought and an essential part of traditional Chinese culture. In 1972, precious bamboo slips featuring military classics such as The Art of War by Sun Tzu and Sun Bin’s Art of War were unearthed from the two Yinqueshan Han Tombs in Linyi City, Shandong Province.

In the display of the acrobatic skill of “tumbling on the pole”, the poles are like the bamboo slips, while the acrobats act as the characters on these slips. Virtual technology and subjective shooting are employed to enrich the performance, allowing the audience to fully appreciate the profound thinking of ancient Chinese military strategists during the pre-Qin period and see through the inheritance and evolution of ancient Chinese military culture throughout the history.

LONGi Chairman Zhong Baoshen Spoke at Davos 2025 Conference: Global Cooperation Will Accelerate the Adoption of Photovoltaic Technology, Empowering Humanity to Achieve Energy Equity

DAVOS, Switzerland, Jan. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On the morning of January 22, 2025, Zhong Baoshen, Chairman of LONGi, attended the “WEF Electricity Industry CEOs Meeting” with Christian Bruch, President and CEO of Siemens Energy; Gurdeep Singh, Chairman and Managing Director of NTPC (National Thermal Power Corporation of India); Andrés Gluski, CEO of AES; Sophie Hermans, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Climate Policy and Green Growth of the Netherlands; and Alexandre Silveira, Minister of Mines and Energy of Brazil, to discuss the major challenges facing the power industry and the growing importance of the photovoltaic (PV) industry in the global energy supply chain. They also explored how the PV industry can better contribute to global energy equity in the future.

Zhong Baoshen, Chairman of LONGi, posed for a photo at the Congress Centre at Davos 2025 Conference.
Zhong Baoshen, Chairman of LONGi, posed for a photo at the Congress Centre at Davos 2025 Conference.

Zhong Baoshen stated that globally, policy support in some regions has brought new growth opportunities for the photovoltaic PV industry. As a leading enterprise in the industry, LONGi has actively expanded into emerging markets in Africa, Asia, and Latin America to meet the growing local electricity demand. Additionally, LONGi is committed to driving the clean energy transition and enhancing energy affordability. The company continuously reduces the cost of photovoltaic power generation and enhances competitiveness through technological innovation, large-scale production, and cost optimization.

Regarding the acceleration of the clean energy transition and the improvement of energy affordability, Zhong Baoshen believes that the PV industry must provide more economical, sustainable and customized solutions for the global energy system based on the specific needs of different markets. To achieve this goal, he called for strengthening global cooperation among multiple stakeholders, especially in the areas of policy, funding, and technological innovation. Governments can promote investment in clean energy by providing long-term and stable policy support, subsidies, and incentives, especially in regions where electricity demand is growing rapidly. At the same time, international financial institutions, investors, and companies should also increase their financial support for clean energy projects to ensure the smooth progress of technology research and development, infrastructure construction, and project deployment.

As one of the core technologies in the global energy transition, the continuous development and innovation of photovoltaics will become a driving force for the energy transition. Zhong Baoshen called for global cooperation, policy support, and technological innovation to enable the photovoltaic industry to play a significant role in accelerating the clean energy transition and enhancing energy affordability, helping the world achieve a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.

On the afternoon of January 21, 2025, Zhong Baoshen, as a representative of Chinese PV enterprises, attended the “Just Transition Alliance Meeting.” He focused on introducing LONGi’s practices and experiences in advancing short-term and long-term decarbonization strategies in the photovoltaic industry, and in balancing corporate environmental goals with fair access to green energy for workers, consumers, and small and medium-sized enterprises during this process.

Zhong Baoshen explained that as a technology company dedicated to clean energy, LONGi had clearly put forward the concept of “Benevolent Economics” as early as 2021. First, LONGi advocates “Solar for Solar—manufacturing PV products with clean energy,” which is an environmentally friendly, zero-carbon approach to photovoltaics. Second, LONGi’s values are “Reliable, Value-added, and Fulfillment.” Companies should do what is beneficial to humanity and the planet, while also taking into account the interests of customers, employees, and other stakeholders. Only then can a company achieve long-term success. Lastly, “Let differences be harmonized by light.” LONGi strives to enhance the cost-effectiveness of PV energy, making it a globally inclusive energy source that can address development imbalances and achieve a green power supply that is accessible and beneficial to everyone.

In recent years, LONGi has launched the “Green Supply Chain Decarbonization Initiative”, enhancing the carbon management awareness and capabilities of its upstream and downstream enterprises, and promoting energy conservation and various emission reduction actions. In terms of global cooperation, LONGi became a global partner of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in 2023, reaching cooperation in the areas of climate action, energy equity, and green transition. The partnership aims to jointly promote global energy equity and build a future where everyone has access to affordable clean energy.

“The green transition is not only about climate goals, but also about inclusive social development. We believe that by expanding the coverage of clean energy and promoting the construction of green infrastructure, the private sector can become a core force in the global just transition and the Just Transition Alliance,” said Zhong Baoshen. He added that LONGi looks forward to deepening its cooperation with the World Economic Forum to jointly advance a low-carbon, inclusive, and sustainable future.

As an indispensable force in the global economy, Chinese enterprises have attracted significant attention at this year’s WEF Annual Meeting of the New Champions. On that day, Professor Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum, met with Chinese business representatives, including Zhong Baoshen.
