NANNING, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 3 April 2026 - Recently, the "Romantic Coast, Beautiful Southern Border" promotion — a new-media cultural and tourism campaign inviting ASEAN travel influencers to check in across Guangxi's Beibu Gulf — was held in six cities: Nanning, Beihai, Qinzhou, Fangchenggang, Yulin and Chongzuo. The event invited travel influencers from Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines and Indonesia, and formed a media delegation with representatives from China News Service, China Culture Daily, Guangxi Daily and others. Working along two routes, they took in the Beibu Gulf (Guangxi) Golden Tourism Belt in depth, using their lenses to capture the beauty of mountains and sea and their pens to tell stories of the southern border, so that the unique charm of Guangxi's Beibu Gulf could ride the wave of the internet and go viral across ASEAN social circles. Six days, six cities, two routes — the itinerary was full and surprises kept coming. Among the flower seas of Qingxiu Mountain, breezes carrying the scent of blossoms brushed their faces; beside the China-Vietnam border river, they shared coffee across the water and sampled borderland atmosphere; on Weizhou Island by volcanic rock, they waited for a tangerine-red sunset over the sea, a panorama that left influencers calling it "breathtaking"; beneath Zhenwu Pavilion, the nail-free, bolt-free pure-wood construction amazed everyone; at the Jing ethnic museum, the plaintive notes of the single-stringed lute lingered in the ear; in the swell of Sanniang Bay, playful white dolphins suddenly appeared...

Why the Beibu Gulf? This cultural-tourism exchange was bound to happen. The Beibu Gulf (Guangxi ......read more

New Report Finds Serious, Actionable Attacks Rose More Than 20% as SMBs Face Growing Threat from Increasingly Precise, AI-Enabled AdversariesSINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 2 April 2026 - SonicWall today announced the release of the 2026 SonicWall Cyber Protect Report, marking a landmark reframing from traditional threat reporting in favor of the protection outcomes that matter most to business leaders. At the heart of the report is a sobering finding: most SMBs aren't failing because of sophisticated attacks. They're failing because of seven predictable, preventable gaps that SonicWall has named the Seven Deadly Sins of Cybersecurity. The 2026 report continues to draw on data from SonicWall's global network of more than one million security sensors to reveal a threat landscape that is growing more precise and more relentless. Some key statistical findings include: High and medium severity attacks surged 20.8% to 13.15 billion hits. Attackers aren't striking more often, they're striking smarter. Automated bots now generate more than 36,000 vulnerability scans per second, accounting for more than half of all internet traffic. Bad bot traffic alone has surged to 37% of all global internet traffic. IoT attacks climbed 11% to 609.9 million hits; Log4j alone generated 824.9 million IPS hits in 2025, four years after disclosure. Identity, cloud, and credential compromise account for 85% of actionable security alerts. The stolen password, not the zero-day, is the attacker's weapon of choice. SMBs bear a disproportionate ransomware burden: 88% of their breaches involved ransomware in 2025, more than double the rate seen at large enterprises. "SonicWall data reveals attacks are getting faster, and in some instances, they're getting a little more sophisticated," said Michael Crean, SVP and GM of Managed Security Services at SonicWall. "But the vast majority of the attacks that we're seeing and investigating are ba ......read more

TrendAI™ research reveals pressure to deploy AI for business speed is outpacing control, visibility and accountabilityHONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 2 April 2026 - TrendAI™, the enterprise AI security leader from Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), has published new research revealing that organizations worldwide are pushing ahead with AI deployment despite known security and compliance risks. To read the full report visit: https://www.trendmicro.com/explore/trendai-global-ai-study/ The new global study of 3,700 business and IT decision makers found that 67% have felt pressured to approve AI despite security concerns, with one in seven describing those concerns as "extreme" but overridden to keep pace with competitors and internal demand. Rachel Jin, Chief Platform & Business Officer, Head of TrendAI™: "Organizations are not lacking awareness of risk, they're lacking the conditions to manage it. When deployment is driven by competitive pressure rather than governance maturity, you create a situation where AI is embedded into critical systems without the controls needed to manage it safely. This research reenforces our focus on helping organizations drive solid business outcomes with AI while still managing business risk." The risk of pressure-driven AI rollout is exacerbated by governance inconsistencies and unclear responsibility for AI risk that are becoming widespread. The same is true for security teams working on a reactive basis to top-down AI rollout decisions, which often leads to workarounds and increased use of unsanctioned or "shadow" AI tools. Recent TrendAI™ threat research reinforces this shift, showing how attackers are already using AI to automate reconnaissance, accelerate phishing campaigns and lower the barrier to entry for cybercrime, increasing both the speed and scale of attacks. AI adoption is outpacing control Organizations are deploying AI faster than they can manage the associated risks, creati ......read more

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 30 March 2026 - Mental health in Hong Kong has reached a critical "red light" status. According to last year's "The Mental Health Association of Hong Kong” survey1, the average scores for depression and anxiety among Hong Kong residents reached 7.27 and 5.9, respectively—marking the highest levels recorded since 2012. The findings highlight that Gen Z (aged 18 to 24) faces the most severe mental health crisis, with a strong correlation identified between excessive electronic device usage and emotional distress. When facing emotional lows, as many as 55% of respondents remain hesitant to seek professional help, while "AI Assistants" have climbed to the sixth most popular choice for seeking support for the first time. In response to these trends, Seed Medical has launched its new Specialist Psychiatric Services, providing comprehensive mental health support for children, adults, and the elderly. Covering conditions such as ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder), ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder), and various symptoms of anxiety, the clinic provides professional clinical diagnoses and urges the public not to over-rely on virtual interactions, which may lead to missing the "golden window" for effective treatment. Virtual Interaction Cannot Replace Human Connection; Emotional Support Still Requires a "Human Touch" As AI emerges as a new channel for emotional expression, its immediacy and low barrier to access have made it easier for many individuals to “open up” when facing stress. However, experts note that AI interactions are fundamentally based on algorithms and data-driven responses, and may not accurately capture an individual’s personal context or emotional depth. Mr. Wong Man Shun2, Deputy Executive Director of the Hong Kong Mental Health Association, cautioned that for individuals already experiencing emotional distress, treating AI-generated content as reality or relying on virtual interaction in plac ......read more

SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 30 March 2026 - Watermaxx has launched the Ioncares Lunox, a tri-temperature water purifier designed for both home and office use in Singapore. The hot and cold water dispenser delivers ambient, cold, and hot water on demand, and comes equipped with a four-stage filtration system and a stainless steel tank. It is available in two form factors, a tabletop unit and a floor stand, to accommodate different spatial requirements. On the filtration front, the Lunox runs water through four stages: a sediment filter that removes larger particles, a pre-carbon filter for volatile materials and chlorine, a UF membrane filter capable of filtering particles as fine as 0.01 microns, and a post-carbon filter that improves taste and eliminates residual odour. The result is water that retains its natural mineral content while being free of common contaminants. The unit also features a child lock to prevent unintended dispensing and a stylish LED clock display. For those who prioritise cooling capacity, the floor stand variant comes with a larger 5.0L cold tank, compared to the tabletop's 3.2L, both sharing a 1.5L hot tank. Access to clean, filtered water remains a practical consideration for households and workplaces in Singapore. The Lunox is positioned as a long-term alternative to bottled water, with a design that works across settings, from a home kitchen to a corporate pantry. For businesses or individuals who would like to try before they buy, Watermaxx offers a trial period for the Lunox, allowing customers to use the dispenser for a few days to determine whether it suits their needs and lifestyle before committing to an upfront payment. Watermaxx is a Singapore-based water purification company and the master dealer for the Ioncares range of water dispensers. Serving both residential and commercial clients across the island, the company offers a comprehensive range of solutions beyond Ioncares, including the sales, servicing, rent ......read more
