Counterfeit Products Sold Online in Malaysia Threaten Halal Compliance, Consumer Health, and the E-Commerce Sector, Says Muslim Consumers Association (PPIM)

Nadzim Johan, Chief Activist of Muslim Consumers Association of Malaysia (Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia or PPIM) (L) and Rajen Manickar, Founder of Holista Colltech (R) briefing the media to express deep concern about counterfeit fish oil supplements being sold online in Malaysia with fake halal certificates.KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 18, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Muslim Consumers’ Association of Malaysia today expressed deep concern over the emergence of counterfeit health products sold online with fake halal certificates.Nadzim Johan, Chief Activist of Persatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia (PPIM), urged the authorities to investigate and take immediate action against the companies involved.Nadzim warned that if not addressed promptly, these illegal practices could endanger public health and erode the confidence of Muslims in Malaysia regarding syariah compliance and guidance. He also stressed that this issue threatens local syariah-compliant businesses operating on e-commerce platforms.PPIM has held urgent discussions with Holista Colltech Limited (“Holista”) concerning a recent police report filed by the company in Malaysia.The report was lodged regarding counterfeit PRISTIN® Omega-3 fish oil products being sold on two popular e-commerce platforms, Lazada and Shopee.Holista, headquartered in Petaling Jaya and listed on the Australian Securities Exchange, filed the report with the Royal Malaysia Police after obtaining samples of the counterfeit products.Independent laboratory testing revealed that the counterfeit products were made from low-grade palm oil instead of fish-derived Omega-3.Holista is Malaysia’s market leader in Omega-3 supplements, sold under two flagship brands – PRISTIN® GOLD OMEGA-3 FISH OIL 1200MG SOFTGEL and PRISTIN® OMEGA-3 FISH OIL 1200MG. Both products are halal-certified.Nadzim emphasized that Holista’s genuine products are only available through pharmacies licensed by the Ministry of Health Malaysia and via Holista’s official online stores, Alterni.com and Holista.global.“We are deeply concerned about the emergence of such counterfeit products. With the rapid growth of e-commerce in Malaysia, we fear that other counterfeit cases may exist and remain undetected by the authorities,” said Nadzim.He further highlighted three critical issues:1. Halal certification is a core element of the Islamic faith. Any blatant misuse of the halal logo undermines the trust of Muslims in Malaysia and globally in the certification of products, their sources, and production processes.2. Such counterfeit products deliberately evade regulatory oversight governing supplement safety and compliance. Not only do they fail to support health, but they actively endanger consumers.3. As a Muslim-majority country with a large young population, Malaysia is a thriving e-commerce market, respected globally for its adherence to Islamic practices and halal compliance. Violations of this nature will have severe repercussions for syariah-compliant businesses if not dealt with decisively.PPIM has called on the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) – which oversees online activities – and the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM), under the Ministry of Religious Affairs, to investigate the e-commerce platforms used for selling these counterfeit products and to identify the companies or individuals involved.Nadzim added that industry players, including pharmacy chains and the Malaysian Dietary Supplement Association, should also hold urgent discussions to address growing concerns among consumers, particularly Muslims.About PPIMPersatuan Pengguna Islam Malaysia (PPIM) was established in June 1997 by a group of doctors, university lecturers, Islamic academician and individuals, in view of the problems faced by Muslim consumers in identifying Halal products. PPIM is an educational organisation for Muslims about Halal products. Its official website provides Halal and Haram products list, FAQs, forum, downloads, consumer complaint and latest news.PPIM Media contact person:Puan ZuraEmail address: ppimmedia1@gmail.com,Mobile number: 013-6116666 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Dongwu Cement (00695.HK) Undergoes Major Transformation with Suzhou State Capital Takeover ACN Newswire

Dongwu Cement (00695.HK) Undergoes Major Transformation with Suzhou State Capital Takeover

HONG KONG, Sep 18, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Dongwu Cement International Limited (00695.HK), a Hong Kong-listed company, recently announced a significant change in its shareholding structure, marking the beginning of an unprecedented strategic transformation. Suzhou state-owned capital, through Port & Shipping Group (HK) Investment Co., Limited (Port & Shipping Group (HK) Investment) and Suzhou Fenyan Capital Management Co., Ltd. (Fenyan Capital), has strategically invested to acquire a controlling stake in the company. This move not only represents the first time the Yangtze River Delta state-owned asset system has achieved control over a Hong Kong-listed company, but it is also seen as a landmark event signifying the deep integration of state-owned capital with international capital markets.This transaction signals a decisive shift for Dongwu Cement, moving entirely away from its traditional cement business to embrace a new strategic direction. With the robust resource backing and policy empowerment from Suzhou state-owned assets, the company is poised for significant development opportunities in its future business endeavors.Building a New Hong Kong-Suzhou Collaborative Mechanism, Empowering Strategic TransformationThe entry of Suzhou state-owned capital transforms Dongwu Cement from a privately controlled entity into a hybrid-ownership enterprise led by state capital and governed by diverse shareholders. This optimization is expected to significantly enhance the company's governance standards and resource integration capabilities, enabling it to secure greater policy support and capital investment, thereby injecting new development momentum.Guided by the nation's "dual carbon" policies, the industrial resources and capital operation capabilities of the two Suzhou state-owned shareholders indicate a complete departure from traditional cement production, steering the company towards green industries and emerging economic sectors. Notably, Port & Shipping Group (HK) Investment has been actively deploying in cutting-edge technology fields such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the low-altitude economy. Its explorations include:- Drone logistics networks- Smart air traffic control platforms- Smart logistics systems for the Yangtze River Delta port cluster- Upgrading port logisticsPort & Shipping Group (HK) Investment is committed to supporting the development of the low-altitude economy and the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, aiming to create digital application scenarios such as smart ports, smart logistics, and smart shipping, as well as "low-altitude+" characteristic application scenarios. With Port & Shipping Group (HK) Investment's deep involvement in these market-focused hot sectors, Dongwu Cement is expected to enter new growth areas.Demonstrating Resolve and Potential for Change, Releasing Positive Market SignalsFollowing the entry of the new shareholders, market observers widely anticipate that Dongwu Cement will firmly implement a comprehensive transformation strategy, progressively exploring and focusing on new segments such as smart warehousing, modern logistics, and the low-altitude economy. Stakeholders expect Dongwu Cement to fully leverage its resource and geographical advantages to actively build a diversified, forward-looking industrial development landscape, injecting new vitality and fostering more resilient and sustainable growth momentum.Furthermore, in line with Suzhou City's strategy to promote industrial upgrading, Dongwu Cement intends to explore an innovative "Hong Kong Capital Platform + Suzhou Industrial Landing" cooperation model, establishing an efficient bridge between capital and industry. By leveraging its advantage as a Hong Kong-listed international platform, Dongwu Cement will become a crucial window for Suzhou state-owned capital to expand into international capital and resource integration, potentially assisting more Suzhou enterprises to "go global" and attract high-end industrial resources in the future. The low-altitude economy, in particular, is a national priority industry offering immense development potential and market opportunities, benefiting from both policy dividends and significant market space.Investors will witness a robust and transformative entity. Under the backdrop of Suzhou state-owned capital, this transformation and strategic shift by Dongwu Cement fully reflect the state's strong support and investment confidence in corporate upgrading. The company's future pivot towards emerging fields, relying on Hong Kong's international capital advantages and synergy with Suzhou's physical industries, aims to construct a forward-looking new value blueprint for investors. This undoubtedly sends a positive signal to the market, showcasing Dongwu Cement's determination and potential for change in the new economic era.Posted by All Way Success Company Limited for Dongwu Cement International Limited http://www.dongwucement.com/cn/Index.aspx [HKSE:0695] Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

香港董事學會的《施政報告》回應 經濟雖在轉型 機會大於挑戰 ACN Newswire

香港董事學會的《施政報告》回應 經濟雖在轉型 機會大於挑戰

香港,2025年9月17日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 香港董事學會就2025年9月17日發表之《施政報告》作出回應。行政長官李家超先生今日發表任内第四份施政報告,歷3小時,著重既有長遠發展策略及相關措施持續推進,也提及治理制度改革深化,目標是促進經濟轉型,繼而改善民生。董事學會於今年較早前曾成立聚焦小組,討論當前政策形勢,發展路向。今日的《施政報告》有相當内容切合聚焦小組的觀察。我們甚感欣慰。對接國家發展我們贊同,本地經濟發展越能對接國家發展大局,越可以開創繁榮興盛新時代。正如行政長官於演説結尾時提到,過去香港經歷過多次經濟轉型,每次都迎來更强大的經濟。我們要有信念。强化治理近年確有不少人對香港前景產生疑慮,或早已離去,或漸生去意。我們留意到,有部人士的負面情緒可能基於其對政府政策零散不全面,達不到變革效果。政策範圍分散到各個局或部門,實有需要,但若政出多門協調不足,可以令人感到沮喪,對政府失去信心。行政長官提出建立「部門首長責任制」,將部門首長對部門表現負責整體制度化,把司局長就制訂政策須政治問責和公務員就執行政策須行政問責兩者更好銜接。我們認爲,只要機制清晰,調查過程公平公正,公務員必當可以有獎有罰。若責任制能驅使各部門走出筒倉,為既定整體政策目的更好協調協作,或可以催生政府領導力的新典範,强化市民對政府能解決問題的信心。數字經濟,數字社會維持香港作爲宜居城市,需要加快數字經濟數字社會發展步伐。施政報告有措施推進AI和數據科學產業發展,推進數字貿易,構建數字港口系統,持續優化「數碼轉型支援先導計劃」幫助更多中小企實現數字轉型。人才培訓方面,將預留款項支援中小學數字教育。商業應用之外,行政長官提出於政府内成立「AI效能提升組」,應用人工智能重組工作流程,推動部門革新,提升效能。社會福利服務方面,將透過AI聊天機械人及數字病理技術等提升護理效率及服務水平,又會推進中醫業界透過醫健通互通電子健康記錄。經濟發展施政報告提出一系列措施,包括成立「北都發展委員會」,加快發展北部都會區、河套深港創新合作區及新田科技城,朝向國際創新科技中心方向發展。近年政府推出資助計劃,鼓勵創科發展,將上游科研成果轉化為有用商品或服務。科研人員在其自身領域一定卓爾非凡,但未必每位優秀的科研人員都自然而然對經營管理一家企業有所認識。與其它企業一樣,初創企業應該由具備合適技能及專長組合的人士組成董事會,而每位董事均應透過專業培訓獲取公司管治的資歷。接受公帑資助的企業,更應如此。旅遊業方面,行政長官提出措施,配合《粵港澳遊艇自由行》政策,推動遊艇經濟,我們歡迎。文化創意產業方面,文創產業發展處會加强對國際和内地的宣傳、交流和業務配對,將對影視旅遊有鼓勵作用。我們相信,香港可以成爲旅遊人士為領略嶺南文化而往返大灣區各處的基地,而香港與大灣區的文創設計人才可以創作更多兼具中華文化或香港特色的文創產品,利用香港的專業服務及資本市場,創造更多受歡迎的文化知識產權。支援中小企施政報告指出,將延長「中小企融資擔保計劃」,注資「BUD專項基金」並擴大資助地域範圍,及將繼續鼓勵銀行為信貸記錄良好的中小企提供融資方便。寬減非住宅用戶水費及排污費、簡化食肆發牌制度,對餐飲業界應有一定幫助。應對長遠挑戰應對人口老化方面,政府將設立「社會高齡化對策工作組」,配合去年已經提出成立的「促進銀髮經濟工作組」,協調各政策局制訂對策。低出生率方面,政府亦打算進一步推出鼓勵生育措施。施政報告與預算案本屆立法會會期快將結束。行政長官其實可以將施政報告推遲到新一届立法會會期展開之後宣讀而不是提前,使得各界別有意參選的人士可以更無拘束地表述政策理念,或更可以幫助政府制訂未來幾年的政策方向。第7届立法會以來,立法年度改由1月開始。政府與立法會確實可以重新考慮,是否將立法年度改回秋季開始。另一可能,就是將施政報告推至1月。此擧我們在2013-2017年期間也曾試過,當時的理由是可以更彰顯施政報告政策佈局與預算案調撥資源的相互關聯。經濟發展 改善民生行政長官于去年施政報告的記者會,開宗明義,說出要以經濟發展去改善民生。與去年立場一樣,今年施政報告明確以經濟和民生為兩大主軸。學會一直認爲,經濟持續增長是尋找資源以解決房屋、貧窮、老年社會和環境等民生問題的最可倚仗的夥伴。香港董事學會簡介香港董事學會為香港代表董事共同努力的首要組織,其宗旨是促進企業永續發展職能,為所有公司、其擁有者、持份者、人類以至地球創造持久價值;為達成使命,學會致力於企業管治(或稱公司治理)及董事專業行為上的倡導及釐定相關標準,以及協助董事的專業發展。憑藉由來自上市公司及非上市公司的董事組成之會員基礎,學會致力為董事提供教育項目及資訊服務,並代表董事發聲。學會具國際視野及多元文化,採用兩文三語經營業務。香港董事學會為「環球董事學會聯盟」即Global Network of Director Institutes的成員,該聯盟匯集世界各地代表董事的翹楚學會。網址 http://www.hkiod.com。傳媒查詢:王俊泳先生(電話﹕2889 1414;電郵﹕wing.wong@hkiod.com;傳真﹕2889 9982) Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Casa Minerals Inc Announces Advanced Ground IP Survey at the Arsenault Project ACN Newswire

Casa Minerals Inc Announces Advanced Ground IP Survey at the Arsenault Project

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 17, 2025) - Casa Minerals Inc. (TSXV: CASA) (OTCQB: CASXF) (FSE: 0CM) (the "Company" or "Casa") is pleased to announce that it has received partial results from the 3D ground-based Induced Polarization ("IP") survey recently completed at its highly prospective copper-silver-lead-zinc Arsenault property located in northern British Columbia, close to the Yukon-B.C. border.The geophysical contractor employed state-of-the-art instruments with dipoles at 100m station spacing to dimensions of 15m in subsurface high density data acquisition. The survey consists of 60 km of parallel lines with 200m line spacing that covered approximately 12 square kms at the heart of the 96.5 square kilometer (37.3 sq. mile) Arsenault property. The property is located in "Big Salmon" geological terrain comprising volcano-sedimentary formations that elsewhere are host to important VMS and precious metals deposits.Data acquired in the field is now being processed to present two dimensional drawings (pseudo-sections) that depict ground mass resistivity and chargeability and are being received daily. Survey lines are spaced at 200 metres and controlled by GPS. Figures 1 to 6 illustrate the resulting Induced Polarization and Resistivity that are interpreted to reflect characteristics of the underlying bedrock.In addition to the recent survey and other work by its own crews, Casa has a large database of similar geophysical work, geochemical surveys, geological mapping, and trenching.An airborne VTEM survey in 2017 revealed five compelling exploration targets of low resistivity coincident with strong geochemistry in volcanic members of Big Salmon rocks. As shown in the accompanying drawings, the 2025 advanced 3D ground IP survey is highlighted by strong geophysical signatures that confirm most of the pre-existing data including that from a previously flown Airborne Electromagnetic ("EM") survey (2017). The colour-coded pseudo-sections show a pattern of high to very high chargeability responses as well as an array of resistivity responses from very low to high but due in part to widely varying electrical characteristics inherent in different rock and mineral types, do not allow confident assignment of anomalies to rock (or mineral) types. Ultimately confirmation will be with further, more-detailed surveys, trenching and drilling.Casa's management team has extensive experience in applying technical data in the search for valuable base and precious metal deposits. Plans to advance the Arsenault property are being finalized with an objective of entering the drilling phase.Areas of particularly strong technical signatures will be the focus of the initial drilling campaign. The Company has conducted consultations with the Teslin-Taku First Nation and has a drill permit from the provincial of British Columbia. A drill program will be with personnel accommodated in a temporary camp. All environmental and social protocols will be strictly observed.Figure 1: Line 27E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%201%20-%20line%2027e.jpgFigure 2: Line 26E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%202%20-%20line%2026e.jpgFigure 3: Line 25E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%203%20-%20line%2025e.jpgFigure 4: Line 24E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%204%20-%20line%2024e.jpgFigure 5: Line 23E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%205%20-%20line%2023e.jpgFigure 6: Line 22E Alpha IP SurveyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_figure%206%20-%20line%2022e.jpgThe VTEM Airborne geophysical survey depicts the acquired IP line locations and in relation to the VTEM identified targets.To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1750/266791_casafig7.jpgThe Following the 3D Presentation of Induced Polarization and Resistivity sections completed to date.

"I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Project and seeing firsthand what has enticed previous explorers over decades. Our field crews have examined numerous rock samples that exhibit strong sulphide mineralization including some that conceptually may be related to the mysterious deep-sea "black smokers" the signature of volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits. We are looking forward to seeing additional results of this sophisticated technical survey that undoubtedly will help us understand the subsurface geology without incurring significant environmental impact."About the Arsenault Project Casa Minerals Inc. is aiming to exercise the option to acquire 75% ownership. It has fulfilled requirements of share issuance and is committed to fulfill its exploration expenditure and payment obligations which were accrued and postponed due to market conditions.

Professor Lin Xiang Xiong Hosts Landmark Art Exhibition and Peace Prize Ceremony in Paris

“The Vicissitudes of Life” Celebrates the Transformative Power of Art in Dialogue, Reflection and PeacebuildingPENANG, Malaysia, Sept 17, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Renowned humanitarian-artist Professor Lin Xiang Xiong (“Professor Lin”) and founder of the Lin Xiang Xiong Art Gallery in Penang, presented his latest exhibition, “The Vicissitudes of Life”, at the historic Hôtel de l’Industrie in Paris from 10 to 13 September 2025.(L-R) Jean-Pierre Raffarin, former French Prime Minister and founder of Lin Xiang Xiong Art Gallery, Professor Lin Xiang XiongThe exhibition received strong support from key French institutions, with former French President François Hollande serving as Honorary Patron, and former French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin personally attending the opening. Featuring 25 original works by Professor Lin, the exhibition explored three themes - anti-war, anti-poverty, and anti-pollution - and vividly embodied Professor Lin’s vision of “Art for Peace”, a concept that transcends aesthetics and seeks to inspire moral reflection and intercultural understanding.Distinguished speakers exchange views on art, culture, and peace during the academic symposium held as part of Professor Lin Xiang Xiong’s exhibition “The Vicissitudes of Life” in Paris.During the exhibition, a high-level academic symposium was held, bringing together leading international scholars, philosophers, and cultural leaders to reflect on “Intercultural Dialogue at the Crossroads” and “Rebuilding the Concept of Peace through Art.” Distinguished speakers included French writer and human rights activist Marek Halter, eminent philosopher and sinologist François Jullien, intellectual publisher François L’Yvonnet, Swiss curator and sociologist Barbara Polla, special adviser to the President of the Arab World Institute Claude Mollard, cultural diplomacy advisor Yves Marek, and retired French Air Force General Étienne Copel. Throughout the discussions, Professor Lin shared his unique insights on the times, on art, and on the essence of peace, sparking strong resonance and deep dialogue.On 12 September, the inaugural “Lin Xiang Xiong Art for Peace Prize” ceremony was held with great success. The competition drew 1,883 entries from 100 countries around the world, far exceeding expectations. This overwhelming response underscored the wide recognition of Professor Lin’s “Art for Peace” advocacy, echoing the common aspirations of today’s world. Professor Lin announced that the award will be established as a biennial event, continuing as a major artistic initiative dedicated to peace.The exhibition and symposium attracted a full house at the historic Hôtel de l’Industrie in Paris.“This exhibition is more of an awakening of thought than a presentation of art,” said Professor Lin Xiang Xiong. “Every brushstroke is a testimony of time, a silent dialogue between past and present, pain and healing. Whether through the exhibition or the establishment of the Peace Prize, I hope art is not merely for admiration but can truly touch hearts, serve as a bridge between cultures, and awaken the soft conscience deep within humanity.”Exhibition view of “The Vicissitudes of Life”The exhibition also marks a milestone in Professor Lin’s artistic journey and heralds the opening of the Lin Xiang Xiong Art Gallery in Penang, scheduled for mid-December 2025. Covering 8,000 square meters, the gallery will house Professor Lin’s major works and also providing a platform for emerging artists to pursue their dreams. It will stand as one of the largest private art galleries in the region, strengthening Malaysia’s role as a hub of cultural diplomacy and intercultural understanding in Southeast Asia.Through “The Vicissitudes of Life,” Professor Lin once again demonstrates that art is a messenger of thought and conscience. With clarity, he advocates peace, and as an artist, he chooses his own path - through the soft power of culture, through words, and through his brush - to voice his deep concern for war, pollution, and poverty. With art as his language, he calls upon fellow artists to join his cause, uniting their strength to speak out for peace and the future of humanity.Download high-resolution images from this LINK.About Lin Xiang XiongProfessor Lin Xiang Xiong is a renowned artist, entrepreneur, and advocate for global security through art.

TruMerit Adds Two More Global Credentials for Rehabilitation Care Workers

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Sept 17, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TruMerit, a global leader in healthcare workforce development, today launched two new global credentials for healthcare workers specializing in rehabilitation, habilitation, and restorative care.The Certified Global Health Worker-Rehabilitation (CGHW-R) and the Certified Global Health Worker-Rehabilitation Advanced (CGHW-RA) have been developed specifically for eligible health workers worldwide who wish to have their applied experience and competencies in rehab care recognized and verified by passing a certification examination. These credentials, along with the Certified Global Nurse-Rehabilitation (CGN-R) that TruMerit established last year, are intended to advance and improve services for the more than two billion people worldwide who need this care.The CGHW-RA credential was developed for those with a degree or diploma in a rehabilitation field. These include clinicians, educators, and instructors with physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech language pathology, or other rehab-related specializations.The CGHW-R credential was designed for those who have rehab health experience but have not completed post-secondary education in an area of rehab specialization. These would include technicians, assistive personnel, nursing assistants, and home or community health aides working in rehabilitation, habilitation, and restorative care settings.In addition to education and degree requirements, candidates for these credentials must have at least two years of work experience in a rehabilitation, habilitation, or restorative care setting during the last five years. Upon verification of their credentials by TruMerit, they must pass a proctored exam that is offered at more than 1,000 test centers worldwide.In 2019, CARF International, a non-profit organization that accredits rehabilitation care providers worldwide, alerted TruMerit (known then as CGFNS International) about the growing demand for validating practice competence of the rehabilitation health workforce and raising standards across the care continuum. TruMerit and rehabilitation experts from across the world began the process to create exam-based global certifications for healthcare professionals working in rehabilitation, habilitation, and restorative care settings. The process has included more than 200 subject matter experts from 45 countries from all world regions and income levels."Caring for the huge and growing population of persons living with a disability is one of the most pressing issues facing healthcare today. By validating the knowledge and skills of those who devote their careers to providing this care, global credentials will help drive efforts to expand and equip this vital workforce to meet the challenges of the future. We are grateful to the global team of rehab care experts who helped make these credentials possible," said Julia To Dutka, Chief of TruMerit's Global Health Workforce Development Institute, which is leading the initiative.View more information on TruMerit's global rehab certification program.Additionally, last month TruMerit unveiled its Certified Global Nurse (CGN) credential for first-level, general nurses (RNs), along with a reinvented Nurse Qualifying Exam.About TruMeritTruMerit is a worldwide leader in healthcare workforce development.

華檢×仁和:於美國共同籌建全球首家OTC垂直領域RWA交易所 ACN Newswire

華檢×仁和:於美國共同籌建全球首家OTC垂直領域RWA交易所

香港,2025年9月16日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 傳統醫藥產業與鏈上金融的深度融合,正為全球非處方藥資產開啟一扇數位化、全球化的價值之門。9月16日,華檢醫療(01931.HK)發佈公告宣佈,公司與仁和藥業(000650.SZ)之間接全資附屬公司仁和國際達成戰略合作,共同於美國籌建全球首個專注於非處方藥(OTC)領域的垂直RWA交易所。華檢醫療9月16日發佈之公告此舉是華檢醫療「ETHK鏈上金融生態戰略」及「全球RWA交易·所中所」商業模式成功落地的關鍵第一步與標杆案例,旨在打造一個可規模複製的樣板,驗證該創新模式的可行性及巨大潛力。一、強強聯合,構建全球OTC RWA交易新生態華檢醫療與仁和藥業的合作代表了傳統產業與金融科技的創新融合。仁和藥業作為中國非處方藥物(OTC)協會會長單位,在中國OTC市場擁有極具競爭力的穩固份額和廣泛的行業號召力。而華檢醫療則依託其前瞻性的技術佈局,構建了覆蓋區塊鏈底層架構、智慧合約開發、資產數位化發行及流通結算的全棧式技術解決方案。此次合作將充分發揮雙方獨特優勢。仁和藥業將其在中國市場無與倫比的線下管道網絡及線上行銷能力與華檢醫療提供的全球合規技術架構相結合,產生強大的"乘法效應"。這種"中國領先管道網絡+全球合規數位化平台"的獨特組合,構成了難以被競爭對手複製的核心競爭壁壘。二、創新模式,破解RWA發展核心瓶頸長期以來,RWA的巨大潛力始終受限於幾大核心瓶頸:公鏈性能的限制、傳統與加密世界的資金壁壘、複雜的跨境監管以及普遍存在的流動性不足等問題。華檢醫療通過創新的「所中所」商業模式,為各行業龍頭企業提供頂尖的技術基礎設施與合規運營支援。這種模式使其能夠以輕資產方式運行,通過與行業龍頭合作快速切入不同領域,具備極強的可複製性和規模化擴張潛力。華檢醫療「ETHK全球RWA交易·所中所」戰略模式之核心運作邏輯如下:賦能核心資產端(聚合優質資產源):依託本集團在全球RWA交易所技術生態及創新金融科技應用領域的深厚積澱,為各行業領域中擁有核心資產且具備代幣化需求的上市公司,量身定制並共同搭建其垂直行業領域專屬RWA交易所。通過提供資產篩選、結構設計、合規發行與流動性管理的一站式解決方案,助力合作企業實現資產數位化轉型,優化資本結構,拓展全球戰略佈局,最終推動產業升級與價值重塑。對接核心資本端(構建全球流動性網絡):致力於為全球知名的銀行、基金、信託公司等持牌金融機構,提供安全、高效、合規的全球RWA資產配置通道與數位化交易解決方案。通過構建多層次、國際化的資本接入體系,滙聚全球頂級投資機構的專業資本與流動性,深度參與RWA資產的定價、流通與價值重構,提升全球資產配置效率。生態協同與連結:本戰略的核心在於聯合與連結全球各個生態領域的上市公司(核心資產方)和金融機構(核心資金方),共築鏈上金融新生態。本集團依託「ETHK」品牌生態,分別從鏈上金融基礎設施技術服務能力(由ETHK Labs及/或旗下專業主體提供)與鏈上金融全球合規運營支援(由ETHK Inc等附屬公司提供)兩大層面,為合作方提供堅實後盾,深化「ETHK全球RWA交易·所中所」戰略的構建與落實。此次合作的OTC垂直領域RWA交易所將實現多項創新突破:支持多鏈部署、支持法幣與穩定幣雙通道申贖、通過自研智慧合約提供即時贖回功能。這些技術創新有效地解決了RWA領域的監管合規、跨鏈操作及流動性問題,為傳統金融資產上鏈提供了可複製的解決方案。三、雙向賦能,開啟全球OTC市場新紀元該OTC RWA交易所將構建一個雙向暢通的全球化資本與產品流通管道。一方面推動中國資產出海:平台將助力仁和藥業及其關聯的中國優秀OTC企業,將其智慧財產權資產通過RWA代幣化的方式進行結構性重塑,並面向全球專業及機構投資者進行融資與流通。另一方面引進全球高科技資產:積極引入美國、日本等OTC產業發達地區的創新、高端產品與技術,例如美國以"Hims & Hers"為代表的直接面向消費者(DTC)健康科技模式下的創新產品,以及來自日本的頂尖酵素產品、功能性化妝品和功能性食品等。這種雙向流動不僅有利於中國OTC企業獲取全球資本認可,也為國內消費者引入了全球最前沿的健康科技成果,滿足日益升級的健康與美麗需求。四、利國利民,ETHK生態戰略的重大進展華檢醫療此次與仁和藥業的戰略合作,是其「ETHK鏈上金融生態戰略」落地的關鍵里程碑。ETHK生態旨在通過科技賦能,打造一個安全、高效、合規、開放的去中心化金融平台,通過技術創新與生態整合,構建定義未來金融格局的全球鏈上金融生態王國。本項目深度助力中國OTC產業的數位化升級與全球化拓展,通過引入國際先進的產品、技術及管理經驗,切實推動"健康中國"戰略的落地。它不僅能夠加速國內大健康產業的供給側改革,更能滿足中國人民對更高品質、多元化健康生活日益增長的需求。對於全球OTC產業而言,此次合作將首創"數字License-in/Out"模式,極大破除傳統跨境合作的壁壘,提升全球OTC產業在研發、融資、流通全鏈條的創新效率與資源整合速度,有望重新定義行業規則與合作標準。五、前景廣闊,RWA市場迎來爆發式增長據Defillama資料,截至2025年6月,RWA總鎖倉量(TVL)達125億美元,較2024年增長124%。波士頓諮詢公司(BCG)與新加坡數字證券交易所(ADDX)聯合預測,到2030年,全球RWA市場規模將達到16.1萬億美元,佔全球GDP的10%。在醫療健康領域,RWA應用正在加速落地。2025年8月,美年健康(002044.SZ)宣佈與國富量子(00290.HK)、京北方(002987.SZ)簽署《數字資產業務合作框架協議書》,三方將依託各自資源稟賦,在數字資產RWA領域開展全方位業務探索與合作。本月初,華檢醫療披露推進收購國富量子20.31%股權事宜,成為其第一大股東,將充分利用其金融牌照與RWA實踐經驗,增強鏈上金融佈局。華檢醫療與仁和藥業的合作,為RWA在垂直領域的深度應用提供了創新範例,展示了鏈上金融與傳統產業融合的巨大潛力。全球RWA市場正在經歷爆發式增長,據CoinGecko資料,所有現實世界資產代幣的市值已達到660億美元。華檢醫療與仁和藥業的合作,為傳統醫藥產業擁抱鏈上金融提供了創新範例,也為中國優質資產對接全球資本開闢了新通道。隨著香港《數字資產發展政策宣言2.0》的深入推進和全球監管框架的逐步完善,RWA有望成為連接傳統金融與數字經濟的橋樑,為產業發展注入新動能。 Copyright 2025 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.
