BRI Distributes Rp20.33 Trillion Interim Dividend, Driving Value for Shareholders and State

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk. (IDX: BBRI) is pleased to announce it will distribute Rp135 per share of interim dividends, totaling Rp20.33 trillion. The distribution takes place on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, and demonstrates BRI’s commitment to generating shareholder value.

BRI President Director Sunarso announces a Rp20.33 trillion interim dividend distribution, creating value for both the Government of Indonesia and the many shareholders from among the general public.

BRI President Director Sunarso explained that this decision to distribute dividends shows the company’s dedication to providing sustainable profits for shareholders, and it reflects BRI’s confidence in a strong business foundation and promising growth prospects. He commented: “This is proof that BRI is committed to creating value and providing real benefits to shareholders, especially for the Government of Indonesia as the majority shareholder.”

Under BRI’s share ownership structure, the state holds 53.19% of the shares (80.61 billion shares) and the public owns 46.81% (70.95 billion). In line with this split, the Government of Indonesia received Rp10.88 trillion of interim dividends out of the Rp20.33 trillion total, while public shareholders received Rp9.45 trillion.

This distribution not only provides direct benefits for the state, but also for the many retail shareholders from the general public. With a total of 653,251 shareholders (as of December 2024), the number of BBRI shareholders is the highest out of all stocks traded on the Indonesia Stock Exchange and is growing, effectively broadening the benefits that BRI brings to the Indonesian people and the state.

In addition to serving as a positive signal for the Indonesian capital market, the distribution also shows BRI’s consistent dedication to carrying out its business transformation. Beyond maintaining performance, BRI’s transformation strives to create long-term value—for shareholders as well as all stakeholders across Indonesia’s economy. With a robust business foundation, BRI is optimistic that it can continue to make significant contributions to national economic development.

USPS Unveils Latest Lunar New Year Stamp

2025 is the Year of the Snake

BOSTON, Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the U.S. Postal Service unveiled the Lunar New Year: Year of the Snake stamp in the historic Boch Center Wang Theatre in Boston. The Postal Service printed 21 million stamps that are now on sale at Post Offices and usps.com.

Share the news on social media using the hashtags #LunarNewYearSnake and #LunarNewYearStamp.

“Our Lunar New Year stamp series is extremely popular and we are very proud of how it highlights and celebrates America’s great diversity, said Luke Grossmann, chief financial officer and executive vice president, U.S. Postal Service, who dedicated the stamp. “As you use these vibrant stamps to mail your letters and packages, it is our wish that the “Year of the Snake” brings each of you good health, great joy and much prosperity.”

Other participants at the ceremony were Tiffany Chu, chief of staff, Office of Boston Mayor Wu; Terri Mock, Board of Directors, BCNC; Isabel Kim, chief financial officer, the Asian American Foundation (TAAF); singer Juliet Brownell-Lee; and the Wah Lum Kung Fu and Tai Chi Academy Performance Troupe.

Lunar New Year Stamp Background

The Lunar New Year holiday is a celebration of new beginnings that falls on the second new moon of the Chinese lunar calendar following the winter solstice. On Jan. 29, millions around the world will hold parades and host parties, decorate with red and gold lanterns, set off firecrackers to ward off evil spirits, and invite family and friends to share traditional foods to welcome the new year. This date also marks the beginning of the Year of the Snake, the sixth animal on the Chinese zodiac. The Year of the Snake ends Feb. 16, 2026.

The holiday — and the weeks of celebration that surround it — mark the beginning of the traditional planting season in Southeast Asia, but modern Lunar New Year festivities take place all over the world for people of Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Mongolian, Malaysian and Singaporean heritage, among others. Known as Tet in Vietnam, Seollal in Korea, and the Spring Festival in China and elsewhere, Lunar New Year historically marks the arrival of spring. Representing hope and promise, the colors red and gold appear everywhere during this auspicious time of year.

Each year in the Chinese lunar calendar is associated with one of 12 animals in the Chinese Zodiac, each with its own characteristic traits. Those born in the Year of the Snake are said to be quiet, wise and deep-thinking, making them proficient musicians, philosophers, writers and teachers.

The Stamp Design

Antonio Alcalá, an art director for USPS, worked on the Lunar New Year series of stamps with artist Camille Chew to create imagery that is fresh, fun and celebratory. Calling to mind the elaborately decorated masks used in the dragon or lion dances often performed during Lunar New Year parades, Chew’s three-dimensional pieces are a contemporary take on the long tradition of paper-cut folk-art crafts created during this auspicious time of year.

Using greens and blues as the predominant colors, the snake mask incorporates elements of symbolic meaning. Blue accents represent the wood element in Chinese culture, a choice befitting the Year of the Snake. Paper flowers for spring are adorned with gold leaves and orange blooms. Decorative purple baubles on blue strings hang from the mask.

Chew constructed the three-dimensional snake mask out of hand-printed paper, then cut, scored and folded it into shape. She then embellished the mask with acrylic paint and other paper elements, such as flowers and tassels, and covered the back of the mask in a layer of papier-mâché. Sally Andersen-Bruce then photographed the mask on a white background for this series.

Illustrations of the 12 zodiac animals, done in the artist’s unique style and finished in gold and orange foil, form vertical lines on the left and right sides of the pane of 20 stamps. In capital letters along the top, “LUNAR NEW YEAR” is printed in blue, followed by “YEAR OF THE SNAKE” in orange.

The Lunar New Year stamps are issued in panes of 20. As Forever stamps, they will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1‑ounce price.

Postal Products

Customers may purchase stamps and other philatelic products through the Postal Store at usps.com/shopstamps, by calling 844-737-7826, by mail through USA Philatelic or at Post Office locations nationwide.

Pearson and Microsoft Announce Multi-Year Partnership to Transform the Future of Learning and Work with AI

  • Both companies are committing to transforming and scaling AI skilling and learning for learners, workers, and employers
  • Pearson to further benefit from Microsoft Azure Cloud capabilities and AI tools, including rolling out Microsoft 365 Copilot across its workforce
  • Microsoft to further benefit from Pearson assessment and learning services

LONDON and REDMOND, Wash., Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) and Pearson (FTSE: PSON.L), the world’s lifelong learning company, announced a strategic collaboration today to help to address one of the top challenges facing organizations globally: skilling for the era of AI. The partnership will focus on providing employers, workers and learners with new AI-powered products and services to help prepare the current and future workforce across industries for the era of work in an AI driven economy. By combining Pearson’s expertise in learning and assessment with Microsoft’s cloud and AI technologies, this partnership will play a foundational role in helping organizations realize the full value of AI through reskilling.

A global IDC survey[i] found that a lack of skilled workers is the biggest challenge for enterprises implementing AI technology within their organizations. The 2024 Work Trend Index Annual Report from Microsoft and LinkedIn also found that 66% of leaders say they wouldn’t hire someone without AI skills. Pearson’s Skills Outlook: Reclaim the Clock research shows generative AI can help U.S. workers save 78 million hours a week on the routine and repetitive tasks that often fill their day and can lead to burnout.

Rethinking reskilling to drive growth  

Given the urgent need to re-think learning and reskill workers, Microsoft and Pearson will collaborate in several ways, including:

  • Personalized Learning at Scale: Pearson will power its trusted and world-renowned content, assessment, upskilling and certification services with Microsoft Azure Cloud Computing and AI infrastructure. This partnership will help Pearson further scale AI and technology capabilities across the business, expanding personalized learning and AI-enabled services to millions of learners, at different stages in their learning journey, across the globe.
  • Innovative Collaboration and Go to Market Opportunities: Pearson and Microsoft will launch a strategic collaboration aimed at helping people build AI proficiency and technical skills through new AI credentials and certifications. Additionally, Pearson and Microsoft will collaborate on a series of copilots, agents and AI tools targeted at helping people develop skills-such as English language learning-and identify skills gaps seamlessly while they work. These collaborations will enable joint innovation and go-to-market activities to drive growth for Microsoft and Pearson.
  • Investing in Technology Driven Careers: Microsoft will extend its current partnership with Pearson VUE, a key provider of Microsoft Cloud and Office certifications, through 2029. These certifications have already helped millions of young people, educators, and workers prepare for jobs that use Microsoft’s world class technology. This expansion will open these vital credentials to scores of additional learners and workers around the globe.
  • Powering the Pearson Workforce: After having piloted and tested Microsoft 365 Copilot, Pearson will expand its use by deploying it to its global workforce. This is part of an ongoing effort to introduce workplace AI tools that enhance efficiency, creativity, productivity and drive better operational performance.

Pearson’s CEO Omar Abbosh, said, “AI is driving a true revolution in education and work, and we must reinvent the way people learn to meet this crucial moment. Partnering with Microsoft means we can reach more learners than ever before. By blending Microsoft’s AI leadership and Pearson’s trusted enterprise skilling and learning services, we can bring enterprise learners precisely what they need to forge ahead in their careers and help them to realize the life they imagine. This new chapter with Microsoft is yet another way we are building on our commitment to expand AI in our products and sharpen our focus on the enterprise market. Importantly, it reflects the opportunity ahead for Pearson and the people we serve.”

Judson Althoff, executive vice president and chief commercial officer at Microsoft, said, “The speed and scale of today’s AI innovation present an opportunity for organizations across industries to accelerate AI Transformation. As AI investments increase, the demand for training and support to enable effective and responsible use of AI has never been greater. We are thrilled to partner with Pearson to help global enterprises develop learning experiences that empower employees with the AI skills needed to help advance their careers and achieve more.”

The partnership extends both Microsoft’s and Pearson’s own efforts to provide AI skilling to people across the globe. In 2024, Microsoft and its partners trained and certified over 23 million people in digital skills. Pearson launched its Generative AI Foundations certification to equip professionals and students with the essential skills needed to work with gen AI technologies. Additionally, organizations around the world use Pearson VUE, along with Pearson’s AI driven Faethm capability, and Credly badging to diagnose, assess and certify skills.

Picarro Broadens Initiative to Enable Sterilization Facilities to Streamline Ethylene Oxide Emissions Compliance Ahead of New EPA NESHAP Rule

Program includes 2nd Annual EtO Compliance Conference, expanded educational resources, and enhanced solutions and expert services

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Picarro, a global leader in gas monitoring, analytics, and services, today announced an expanded initiative to empower commercial sterilization professionals with the services, tools, and data insights they need to navigate evolving regulatory landscapes. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set an October 5, 2026, deadline for sterilization facilities to comply with updated National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulations for Ethylene Oxide (EtO). Prior to that date, facilities must evaluate their current EtO abatement strategies, implement necessary upgrades, and then perform ongoing emissions management strategies and reporting to meet and maintain compliance.

Leveraging cutting-edge technology, in-house expertise, a robust partner network, and an engaged professional community, the Picarro EtO Compliance Initiative is designed to help facilities focus on operational excellence while simplifying compliance with the EPA’s stringent new requirements.

Picarro EtO Compliance Conference Returns in 2025

A cornerstone of this initiative is the continuation of the EtO Compliance Conference, building on the success of Picarro’s inaugural 2024 event. This conference brought together industry executives, technicians, key abatement solution providers, and Picarro experts to share proven strategies for managing EtO emissions effectively. Highlights included:

  • Expert Presentations: Insights from industry thought leaders such as Raymond Stanford, President of Steritec and Joseph Sigmund, head of North American sales at Carus LLC.
  • Panel Discussions: In-depth sessions on regulatory readiness, facility optimization, and advanced emissions monitoring technologies.
  • Networking Opportunities: Connections fostering collaboration and innovation across the sterilization sector.

The 2025 EtO Compliance Conference promises even more value, offering expanded opportunities for learning, networking, and technology exploration.

“Feedback from the 2024 EtO Conference has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Dave Miller, Vice President of Environmental Solutions at Picarro. “This event uniquely addresses the sterilization industry’s need for actionable data, guidance, cutting-edge technology, and peer collaboration. We’re committed to elevating the experience further in 2025.”

Expanded Resources for EtO Emissions Compliance

To maintain momentum in knowledge sharing, Picarro will launch a suite of educational resources throughout 2025, including a continuing series of webinars, white papers, and case studies designed to clarify NESHAP, Performance Specification 19 (PS-19), and 40 CFR 63, Subpart O, and other related EPA requirements.

The third webinar in the ongoing series will feature experts from Picarro and LESNI, a leading provider of EtO catalytic abatement systems. Planned for March 2025, the session will highlight how Picarro EtO monitoring solutions demonstrated the LESNI systems’ exceptional EtO destruction efficiency of 99.99+% – exceeding EPA abatement standards.

Picarro EtO Solutions: Trusted Data, Expert Guidance, and Comprehensive Support

Effective and profitable sterilization operations demand focus. Picarro’s suite of EtO emissions management services and solutions allows operators to focus on their business while Picarro focuses on compliance. In 2025, Picarro will introduce enhanced solutions to further streamline emissions management for EtO and other hazardous pollutants. The Picarro EtO compliance services and solutions will continue to provide:

  • Trusted Data: Workplace Monitoring, Fenceline, and Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEMS) systems deliver ultra-precise, interference-free detection, analysis, and reporting of EtO.
  • Expert Guidance: Experienced team assesses operations and provides tailored advice for navigating regulatory requirements.
