https://youtu.be/LOVtBHWdN3o?si=8SkFmlVl0iTFvqiV
BAODING, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 15 June 2025 - While new energy vehicles continue to gain momentum worldwide, efficient diesel power remains a compelling choice—especially in challenging off-road environments where torque, range, and reliability are critical. GWM is advancing diesel technology with a focus on refinement, performance, and real-world usability. At the recent GWM Thailand Diesel Day event, the brand demonstrated how modern diesel can deliver a clean, quiet, and highly capable driving experience.Traditional trade-offs—torque versus comfort, power versus fuel economy—are disappearing. With today's drivers demanding both performance and efficiency, GWM's TANK 300 Diesel delivers on all fronts.In Thailand, the TANK 300 Diesel has earned high praise for its impressive torque (480N·m at just 1,500rpm), extended driving range (up to 1,200km), and smooth, quiet ride. As one reviewer noted, "It drives like a gasoline SUV—quiet and refined—until you need the torque. Then, it just powers through."This refined balance comes from GWM's 2.4T diesel engine, combined with over 200 NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) enhancements—bringing idle noise down to just 65dB, comparable to gasoline-powered vehicles. The result: urban comfort with true off-road muscle.GWM's advanced combustion technology—featuring columnar combustion chambers and dual tangential air ducts—cuts fuel consumption to under 7.3L/100km, making long journeys more economical and environmentally responsible.Guided by its "All Scenarios, All Powertrains, All Users" strategy, GWM's TANK 300 Diesel demonstrates that diesel, when done right, is still a powerful, relevant solution to real-world needs. In markets like Thailand, clean diesel has a promising future.More than just a product launch, GWM's achievement reflects a user-centered innovation that sets a new benchmark. The message to drivers is clear: more power, fewer compromises, and a brand that truly listens.Hashtag: #GWM

Singapore security firm rebuts viral claim staff face sack for not staying home while on sick leave
SINGAPORE, June 29 — Singapore security firm Certis has clarified that it does not dismiss employees simply for not being at home while on medical leave, after internal WhatsApp messages about its medical leave policy circulated online and drew public attention. The messages, which were first reported by Mothership on Friday, said that workers could receive a warning letter if they were found to be away from home during medical leave without a valid reason. 'If they are not at home, they should share their 'live' location or conduct a video call with their manager to ensure their safety and well-being,' one message allegedly read. Employees were also instructed to update their residential addresses to avoid potential disciplinary action, while another message encouraged officers to 'share their pinned location' if they were not at home. A warning within the messages noted that 'any non-compliance identified may result in disciplinary action, which could include termination'. In response to Channel News Asia's queries, Certis said yesterday that termination is not automatic and disciplinary steps are taken only in 'clear and substantiated cases of abuse of medical leave, after a fair and thorough process'. 'We do not terminate employees solely because employees are not at home when on medical leave,' the company reportedly said. It added that managers may check in on staff who are on medical leave — particularly those on extended leave — and that these visits may include 'small care gestures'. Certis also emphasised that it trusts the majority of its staff to use medical leave responsibly, but has put in safeguards to ensure the system is not abused. 'Certis holds our officers to high standards of professionalism and integrity,' the company said. 'We take a firm stance against any wilful breach of company policy and will not hesitate to take disciplinary action where warranted, as we fulfil our commitment towards partners, customers, and the community whom we strive to protect and safeguard.'

‘No GPS, no rest breaks': JPJ chief flags major safety lapses at 85 transport companies, including failure to monitor driver hours
KOTA BARU, June 29 — The Road Transport Department (JPJ) has found that 64 per cent of commercial vehicle operators audited during the Special Operation on Safety Audit System Guidelines (Ops Khas JISA) failed to meet mandatory safety requirements. Its director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli said the nationwide operation, which began on June 23, involved audits on 133 companies operating commercial vehicles. Of these, 85 companies failed to comply with JISA guidelines, while only 48 passed. 'The non-compliant companies comprised 43 lorry operators and 42 tour and express bus operators,' he said after attending JPJ's Setia Khas Assembly here today. Among the key violations were the failure to appoint occupational safety and health officers, lack of GPS installation in all vehicles, and poor GPS monitoring practices. Many companies also failed to record drivers' working hours, which must not exceed eight hours a day, and did not ensure a minimum 30-minute break every four hours of driving. He added that some companies had no safety action plans in place and did not display hotline numbers or the names of responsible officers on their vehicles for public complaints. JPJ director-general Datuk Aedy Fadly Ramli speaks to reporters at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan in Pengkalan Chepa on June 29, 2025. — Bernama pic 'The department will submit the list of non-compliant companies to the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) for further action, including possible suspension or cancellation of operating licences.' he said. Aedy Fadly stressed that JPJ will not compromise on safety and will continue to take firm enforcement action as part of efforts to enhance road safety and uphold the integrity of the national transport system. — Bernama

Hot profits: Buldak boom turns South Korea's Samyang Foods into a US$7.3b snack daddy
SEOUL, June 29 — Samyang Foods, the company behind the wildly viral Buldak spicy ramyeon, has officially joined the big leagues — crossing 10 trillion won (RM30.9 billion) in market capitalisation for the first time, powered by fiery noodles and a global cult following. According to Yonhap, the Korean Exchange (KRX) said the stock closed Friday at 1,334,000 won a share, putting Samyang in 54th place among listed firms by market value. That's more than double where it stood a year ago — and nearly 33 times what it was worth back in 2016, when shares traded at just 40,000 won. What's fuelling the rocket ride? A potent mix of overseas demand, viral 'fire noodle' challenges, and an appetite for pain — all of which have turned Buldak into one of K-food's hottest exports. Sales hit 1.73 trillion won in 2024, up 45 per cent year-on-year, with international markets accounting for a staggering 77 per cent of total revenue. The US and China are Samyang's top overseas fans, with the heat-seeking trend still burning bright. To keep up, Samyang has expanded one of its three domestic plants and will break ground on its first overseas factory in China next month. The brand is already active in Japan, Indonesia, the Netherlands and the US. Analysts are expecting the firestorm to continue. Brokerage projections show Q2 operating profit could jump 51 per cent year-on-year to 135.2 billion won, while sales are forecast to rise 31 per cent to 554.6 billion won. Once a local noodle name, Samyang is now a sizzling global player — proving that pain, at least in food, really does pay.
