SINGAPORE, Sept 28 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Positioned in a prime location on the highways of Selangor, Malaysia, a series of billboards highlighting “One-on-One English Courses with Foreign Teachers” attracts attention from afar. This marks the official entry of 51Talk into the Malaysian market. 51Talk is set on the path to exploring and revolutionizing the Malaysian online English education market and industry.
51Talk entered the Malaysian market in March 2020, when the world was plagued by the COVID-19 pandemic with face-to-face classes suspended as a result. Leveraging the mode of “Internet + Education,” 51Talk uses a network cable and a screen to develop a new online mode for teaching English. 51Talk selects quality teachers around the world to implement immersive one-on-one classes taught by foreign teachers. Not only can these classes effectively create an immersive English environment and enhance students’ English communication skills by enabling students to come into contact with foreign teachers at an early age, they can also encourage students to speak and communicate with others, as well as improve their English accent, pronunciation and thinking skills. In order to help students to acquire good verbal communication skills and attain better academic results, 51Talk adopts a short, high-frequency and effective method by setting the duration of a class at 25 minutes along with pre-reading, post-class review, tests and extended reading to ensure students gain and absorb all the knowledge learnt from class for better results. On the other hand, 51Talk prides itself on having a 3% passing rate, selecting the cream of the crop for guaranteeing the quality of education. Online learning on 51Talk enables students to utilize fragmented time to learn anytime, anywhere. Between the two years from 2020 to 2022, 51Talk has received acknowledgement and praise from numerous parents and now, as all states and federal territories in Malaysia are able to access classes provided by 51Talk, 51Talk is becoming the most reliable and effective English education brand in Malaysia. Up to date, over 40 million 51Talk users come from 50 countries and regions, with the aggregate number of classes held amounting to over 100 million and the number of Filipino and North American teachers exceeding 20k users. Looking forward, 51Talk will continue to expand in the Malaysian market so that all Malaysian users are able to benefit from quality online English education.

The partnership integrates Sophi.io’s AI technology into Eidosmedia’s editorial platform, bringing seamless ML-powered print laydown automation to Eidosmedia customers
TORONTO, Sept 29 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eidosmedia, a developer of digital publishing solutions for leading news-media groups worldwide, has partnered with Sophi.io, an AI-powered automation, optimization and prediction platform developed by The Globe and Mail, to bring seamless print laydown automation to Eidosmedia customers. The solution brings the entire print page layout process down from hours to just minutes, without the use of templates. Publishers can dramatically improve productivity and cut costs, all within the Méthode platform they currently use. “The complexity of print page layouts has until now defied the easy automation that speeds the publishing of online formats,” said Marco Cetola, Eidosmedia Sales and Partner Program Director. “For our customers, especially large regional groups and national titles, print editions continue to be a major source of revenue. There’s intense interest in ways to cut production times and costs in this important publishing channel.” “The fit between our print edition building routines and Sophi’s AI engine turned out to be very good,” said Marco. “We were quickly able to start training the pagination model on existing layouts, and we had the first results in a matter of days”. “The productivity boost obtained is exceptional,” said Marco, “especially for daily publications where the page-design operation is usually running against the clock.” In fact, a typical 32-page print edition can be paginated in minutes compared to several hours for a manual operation. Sophi-powered print automation is different than other print production solutions in that it is completely template-free. It uses smart AI to ensure that a publisher’s printed pages look and feel as though they were produced by experienced editors and page designers. Each page is designed from scratch following each individual brand’s design vocabulary. The final output is a print-ready PDF or InDesign file that’s ready in minutes. Among those who stand to benefit from the new technology are page designers themselves. Page designers have been under pressure for some time to increase their productivity as publishers try to cut costs. With fewer hands to lay out growing numbers of pages, the designer’s job has in many cases become a stressful race against time. The automation engine will take routine tasks off their hands so they can devote more time to the front pages, features and special layouts where their creativity can really add value. “Page automation is the greatest innovation in the publishing industry since the personal computer replaced typewriters,” said Marco. Gabe Gonda, VP at Sophi.io, commented: “Sophi is delighted to be entering a partnership with Eidosmedia to deliver our print automation technology through the Méthode platform. Eidosmedia is a first-class CMS vendor with deep knowledge of its clients’ evolving needs. This partnership will help deliver a unique and high-value solution to some of the best newspaper publishers in the world.” About Eidosmedia Eidosmedia (www.eidosmedia.com) is a global leader in content management and digital publishing. Eidosmedia solutions are used by news-media organizations throughout the world to create and deliver portfolios of news products ranging from advanced digital formats to traditional newspapers and magazines.

- This New Function Offers Secure Access to Corporate Applications and External SaaS through Virtual Browser - Internet Initiative Japan Inc. (hereinafter "IIJ," TSE Prime: 3774), one of Japan's leading Internet-access and comprehensive network solutions providers, announced the addition of a new remote browser isolation function, "Browser Isolation," to its zero-trust network access (ZTNA) (*) service, "Safous," which is mainly available for users in the U.S. and Asia, starting September 28. The Safous platform is a zero-trust remote access service that provides application-level control over corporate applications and external "software as a service" (SaaS) access from a remote environment. This optional Browser Isolation function is Safous' proprietary, sandbox-based virtual browser that allows users to access applications and SaaS virtually, eliminating browser-based threats and providing more secure access. "Kasm Technologies is honored to provide Kasm Workspaces remote browser isolation, our web-native secure remote access and DevOps-enabled container streaming technology, to Safous' Browser Isolation function. Browser Isolation is an industry-leading, cost-effective, and secure browser-based remote access solution," stated Justin Travis, Co-founder and CEO of Kasm Technologies. (*) ZTNA is a zero-trust solution that provides seamless and secure remote access to internal applications. Instead of authenticating at the boundaries of the enterprise network, authentication is performed through a trusted broker system each time an application is accessed. Background More companies have started using SaaS in recent years, including powerhouses like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, due to the popularization of hybrid work. Unfortunately, these cloud-based systems are critical targets for attackers. In several reported cases, company networks are infected with malware and ransomware through a remote environment, causing a data breach and the suspension of business operations. Because the browser and network on the terminal side are not secure in remote environments -- and are potentially infected with malware already -- the need to access internal data from remote environments securely has become a more urgent issue for companies. To solve this problem, Safous' Browser Isolation function protects the terminal from browser-based threats and securely controls file manipulation when users access SaaS or corporate applications from a remote environment. Features of Safous' Browser Isolation One of the benefits of utilizing virtual browsers is that they defend corporate networks from risky websites. Browser Isolation provides a virtual browser that allows users to access business applications and external SaaS applications securely -- even if their PCs are vulnerable. This function also prohibits users from downloading and executing malicious files that come from email, eliminating the threat of intrusion through the Internet. Website content is streamed to user browsers, allowing them to access any web application safely. Companies also benefit from enhanced protection of sensitive data. Browser Isolation allows individual users to control file uploads and downloads centrally, and sensitive data is accessed through the virtual browser to prevent data breaches. Additionally, downloaded data and access history are deleted at the end of each session to ensure security.

Source: Internet Initiative Japan Inc. http://mrem.bernama.com/viewsm.php?idm=44297 TOKYO, Sept 28 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Kioxia Corporation, a world leader in memory solutions, today announced the industry's first[¹] 2 terabyte (TB) microSDXC memory card working prototypes. Using its innovative BiCS FLASHTM 3D flash memory and an in-house designed controller, basic functions of the KIOXIA 2TB microSDXC UHS-I memory card working prototypes were confirmed in the microSDXC standard’s maximum density.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220927006137/en/ As the data recording capacity of smartphones, action cameras, and portable game consoles continues to increase, the need for ultra-high capacity SD memory cards to store all of this data has never been higher. The SD Association’s SDXC specification has supported memory cards up to 2TB for more than a decade – but 2TB cards have not been successfully manufactured until now. Designed using the company’s proprietary manufacturing technology, the KIOXIA 2TB card working prototypes are built by stacking sixteen 1 terabit dies of 3D flash memory and achieve a maximum thickness of 0.8 mm at the die mounting area – making them well-suited to high-capacity data recording applications. Mass production of the KIOXIA 2TB microSDXC memory cards is scheduled to begin in 2023. Notes [1] As of September 28, 2022. Kioxia survey. * For Kioxia products: Product density is based on the density of memory chip(s) within the product; not the amount of memory capacity available to by the end user. Consumer-usable capacity will be less due to factors such as overhead data areas, formatting, bad blocks, and other constraints, and may also vary based on the host device and application. *SD logo, SDXC logo and microSDXC logo are trademarks of SD-3C LLC. *All company names, product names and service names may be trademarks of their respective companies. *Information in this document, including product prices and specifications, content of services and contact information, is correct on the date of the announcement but is subject to change without prior notice.

Both developed by Masterise Homes with services provided by Marriott International, the two projects have seen strong buyer interest from Asian and European markets, according to a statement. This is not the first time Vietnam attracted foreign buyers in the branded residence sector. In 2021, Masterise Homes partnered with Asia Bankers’ Club to launch Grand Marina, Saigon in Hong Kong which also had great sales results amidst the global pandemic. These continuous successes highlight the great demand for investment properties in Vietnam and the confidence international buyers have for residences affiliated with Marriott International brands. The dual – branded Grand Marina, Saigon brings to Ho Chi Minh City’s coveted District 1 branded units from two Marriott International brands – JW Marriott and Marriott. Overlooking the northern banks of the Saigon River, this trophy asset fuses uncompromising quality and world-class Italian fitouts complemented by the dedicated services and signature amenities from JW Marriott and Marriott. In 2021, Marriott International’s milestone branded residential project - Grand Marina, Saigon signified international confidence in the country’s strong fundamentals – and its significance on the global real estate map. As Marriott announced plans to expand its portfolio fourfold in Vietnam over the next few years, it continues its vote of confidence in both Vietnam’s positive economic development and the branded residence sector. -- BERNAMA U.S. Dominates As Global Hubs Slow to Recover Post-Pandemic

The surge in demand and competition for places at Ivy League, Oxbridge, and other leading universities post-Covid has heightened interest in investment programs that offer a pathway to residence rights or citizenship acquisition in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and several European countries that are home to the world’s leading educational institutions.
Over 70% of the Top 1,000 tertiary institutions ranked in the recent Times Higher Education World University Ranking are in countries that host investment migration programs, with 18% in the US and 10% in the UK. Dr. Juerg Steffen, CEO of Henley & Partners, says securing the best possible education for their children has become a key motivation for investors considering residence and citizenship by investment program options. “Our children are our most precious assets and providing them with the best international schooling and university options is the greatest gift we can give to them and one of the best investments we can make as parents. We predict 2023 is likely to see the largest millionaire migration flows on record with over 125,000 affluent investors and their families on the move. Our new Henley & Partners Education division is designed to provide clients with all the support and assistance they need to access the best educational institutions in their new country.” Securing greater access rights Recent research shows that attending an Ivy League university can boost mid-career earnings by as much as 28.7% and that your child is three or four times more likely to gain admission to the world’s leading schools and universities if they are a resident or citizen of the county. John Milne, Group Head of Education Services at Henley & Partners, says the firm has engaged a network of specialist consultants in the UK, North America, Australia, and Europe who can offer local expert and impartial advice to global clients. “Our new team provides school placement and bespoke concierge services such as assistance with obtaining student visas, language lessons, tutoring, entrance exams and childcare. It also offers a unique online evaluation of academic skills for children aged between six and sixteen — the Henley Academic Profiling Assessment — to provide a snapshot of a child’s academic skills. The results can be used to demonstrate their performance to future schools as well as to monitor their academic progress and identify possible areas for improvement.” Education investment options for high-net-worth families For those who wish to acquire permanent resident (‘green card’) status in the US, the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is the most efficient pathway, requiring an investment of USD 800,000. For entrepreneurs with the UK in their sights, the Tier 1 Innovator visa is aimed at those who can demonstrate relevant experience in business and have at least GBP 50,000 in investment funds. If Canada appeals, the Start-Up Visa Program provides permanent residence to entrepreneurs and active investors in companies and expanding businesses that seek to establish a presence in the country. Australia currently offers four visa streams under its Business Innovation and Investment Program, while its Global Talent Independent Program provides a fast track pathway to permanent residence for highly skilled executives, businesspeople, entrepreneurs, and professionals. Investors can also secure residence in New Zealand as well as Singapore through its Global Investor Program. Group Head of Private Clients at Henley & Partners, Dominic Volek, says the European golden visa programs such as those offered by Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, are also extremely attractive for investors looking to secure premium education and employment opportunities for their children across the EU. “The Portugal Golden Residence Permit Program is our most popular residence program as it provides the quickest, most defined, and now proven pathway to citizenship, subject to the eligibility criteria of course. As a citizen of the EU, your child will have access to education at any of the EU countries’ universities on the same basis as a domestic student. Malta is also an attractive option as its regulations provide for a residence path that may lead to the granting of Maltese citizenship through exceptional services by direct investment.” Notes to Editors About Henley & Partners Henley & Partners is the global leader in residence and citizenship by investment. Each year, hundreds of wealthy individuals and their advisors rely on our expertise and experience in this area. The firm’s highly qualified professionals work together as one team in over 35 offices worldwide. The concept of residence and citizenship planning was created by Henley & Partners in the 1990s.
