Green SM recognized for green leadership at AREA 2025

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 28 June 2025 - Green SM, Southeast Asia's first all-electric ride-hailing platform, developed by Vietnam's Green and Smart Mobility Joint Stock Company (GSM), has been awarded Green Leadership at the prestigious Asia Responsible Enterprise Awards (AREA) 2025 held in Bangkok. The recognition celebrates Green SM's pioneering role in shaping a sustainable transportation ecosystem in Vietnam and expanding its green mobility model across the region. Founded in 2011 by Enterprise Asia, AREA is among the most respected awards in Asia for corporate sustainability, innovation, and social responsibility. The 2025 theme, "A Necessary Shift to a Regenerative Economy," highlights the growing expectation for businesses to restore ecosystems and deliver sustainable value to communities. Green SM stood out in the Green Leadership category for its scalable and inclusive approach to electrifying urban transport. The company operates its own fleet of electric vehicles, while also offering a technology platform – the Green SM Platform, allowing individual VinFast EV owners to join the service. In addition, Green SM also partners with traditional taxi operators to support their transition to electric vehicles. Together, these three components form a flexible, open ecosystem that accelerates the shift toward green mobility in Vietnam and beyond. "Sustainability at Green SM goes beyond strategy. It is deeply embedded in our everyday decisions, our culture, and how we grow," said Ms. Phan Thi Hong Dung, Director of Training and Culture Development at GSM, at the award ceremony. "We believe that a truly sustainable model only works when every individual within the ecosystem chooses to live green, work green, and serve their community with kindness and responsibility. Each ride with Green SM not only helps reduce emissions but also encourages positive habits and sets new standards for sustainable living in society. We are proud that Green SM's journey toward global expansion has been recognized on such a prominent platform in Asia." The award marks a significant milestone in Green SM's broader "Go Green Global" journey. This recognition goes beyond a single Vietnamese enterprise. It reflects Vietnam's growing potential to drive innovation, scale impactful solutions, and contribute a long-term ecosystem perspective to the global green transformation. In just two years, the company has expanded beyond Vietnam into Laos, Indonesia, and the Philippines, completing more than 300 million trips, covering 1.7 billion zero-emission kilometers. The total reduction in CO₂ emissions is estimated at over 211,000 tons, equivalent to the annual carbon absorption capacity of approximately 3,200 hectares of forest. Back home in Vietnam, the company leads the electric taxi market with nearly 40% market share and has partnered with nearly 100 local transport businesses to support their electrification journeys. Big local names such as G7 Taxi, Mai Linh, Lado Taxi, and En Vang have joined the effort with 19 companies fully converting their fleets to electric vehicles. This marks a defining shift: green mobility is no longer an alternative, but a new standard in modern urban transport. With operations now spanning four Southeast Asian countries, Green SM is the second-largest ride-hailing brand in the region and the only one powered entirely by electric vehicles. Its ability to operate efficiently across diverse markets with varying infrastructure and user behaviors is a strong testament to the company's capacity for large-scale deployment, high adaptability, and strategic regional vision as a Vietnamese brand.

Expanding the crypto trading experience: exploring CFDs with Octa broker

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 27 June 2025 - Crypto has been booming for quite a while now. But for those who missed the hype train or find the highly volatile crypto market unsuitable, contracts for difference (CFD) present a viable—and arguably more secure—asset type. The experts at Octa, a global broker since 2011, explain why CFDs are worth exploring to expand experience with the financial markets. New trends, old problems The crypto market experienced turmoil throughout 2024. Bitcoin reached multiple all-time highs in a span of one year, and altcoins tried to follow suit. In early 2025, the appearance of the TRUMP coin reinforces the global trend for crypto's increasing media presence and violent fluctuations of the crypto market. However, even with the current uptrend, the downsides of the crypto market persist. Excessive volatility and the speculative nature of most crypto assets make it a bumpy ride for anyone who aims for consistent outcomes. Among the most popular assets that can be traded instead of crypto, one stands apart for flexibility and accessibility: contracts for difference, or CFDs. These financial instruments allow traders to speculate on the price movements of an asset without owning it. Instead of buying or selling the actual asset, traders enter into an agreement with a broker to exchange the difference in the asset's price from when the contract is opened to when it is closed. This asset price difference constitutes CFD traders' profits or losses. Below are some of the main advantages of CFD trading over investing in traditional crypto assets. Ride with the wave One of the worst situations crypto investors can face in their journey is sudden and prolonged downtrends that appear out of nowhere. Profit potential disappears when the entire market suddenly begins to fall. In cases like these, even portfolio diversification won't help. In contrast, the contract nature of CFDs allows for more flexibility, enabling traders to act on both upward and downward trends. CFD trading enables positions to be opened in anticipation of both rising and falling prices. In other words, CFDs as an asset hold twice as much potential for gains—any swing in asset price can turn into a profit opportunity. Better conditions, lower costs Top CFD brokers can often offer superior trading services, and here's why. Crypto traders regularly face slow order execution, high slippage, and unexpected fees imposed by crypto exchanges. On the other hand, CFD brokers often offer lower spreads and more efficient order execution, which can affect profits significantly if the markets show high volatility. For example, Octa, a CFD broker boasting extensive market experience, offers some of the best trading conditions on the market. The broker's portfolio contains a wide variety of CFD assets, including CFDs on crypto, gold, and indices. Octa's clients have the option to replenish their accounts using cryptocurrency and withdraw funds directly to their cryptocurrency wallets. It is important to note that while Octa facilitates these transactions, the broker does not directly engage in providing services related to cryptocurrency. Instead, it operates through reputable partners who possess the necessary licenses to conduct cryptocurrency-related activities. No wallet, no worries Stories about astronomical amounts of cryptocurrency gathering digital dust on an unrepairable hard drive or unused e-wallet inaccessible because of a lost password have been filling the web for ages. But the risks of losing digital capital due to some transactional or e-wallet issues are more than real. CFD traders don't own cryptocurrencies—or any other underlying asset, for that matter. Instead, they are speculating on the price movement of the underlying asset and can, therefore, tap into the asset's profit potential while avoiding the risks of owning it. CFD traders don't have to manage e-wallets, and that frees them from significant cognitive load—not to mention obvious risks. What's more, the risk of a crypto exchange being hacked and all their digital capital stolen doesn't concern them either. With their flexibility, security, and accessibility, CFDs allow traders to step up their game and avoid many of the drawbacks cryptocurrencies are so famous for as a tradable asset. On top of that, with CFDs, traders can diversify their portfolios since these instruments encompass the whole gamut of various underlying asset types, including precious metals, stocks, and indices. ___ Disclaimer: This press release does not contain or constitute investment advice or recommendations and does not consider your investment objectives, financial situation, or needs.

Rethinking Obesity: Novo Nordisk's Latest Initiative Urges Singaporeans to Treat, Not Blame

'Beyond the Scale' focuses on obesity as a chronic disease — urging empathy, early intervention, and evidence-based care. SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 27 June 2025 - Imagine a chronic disease affecting more than 600,000 people 1-3 in Singapore — yet often misunderstood, overlooked, or surrounded by stigma. This is the reality of obesity today. For many, outdated perceptions and delays in care have created barriers to support and treatment. Today, a new initiative is calling for a shift — to change how we think, talk about, and respond to obesity, through a lens of science, empathy, and early intervention. Breaking the Myths: A Public Health Reframe "Just eat less." "Try harder." "It's a lifestyle choice." These are more than just phrases — they reflect a deeper misunderstanding of obesity. Today, a bold new initiative, seeks to challenge those misconceptions and open the door to a more compassionate, evidence-based conversation. "Beyond the Scale" launches across Singapore with a clear and urgent call to focus on obesity as not a failure of willpower, but as a complex, chronic disease. The initiative invites the public to go beyond — beyond stigma, beyond myths, beyond labels — and recognise obesity for what science confirms it to be: a multifactorial health condition that deserves understanding, early intervention, and clinical care. Led by global healthcare company Novo Nordisk in collaboration with local healthcare professionals and patient advocates, "Beyond the Scale" is a disease awareness initiative aimed at driving a shift in how individuals, communities, and healthcare providers approach obesity management. "We believe it's time to shift from blame to understanding," said General Manager, Mr Vincent Siow of Novo Nordisk Singapore. "Obesity affects 1 out of 9 people in Singapore 4, yet it's still too often seen as a matter of willpower. The reality is that obesity is a complex, chronic disease driven by biology, environment, and unequal access to care. 1,5 It's time we treat it with the seriousness it deserves — and we are proud to lead that conversation and drive meaningful change through the "Beyond the Scale" initiative. Why This Matters Now The 2021–2022 National Population Health Survey reveals the highest obesity rate (15%) among adults aged 40 to 49, while 43.3% of residents aged 18 to 74 had abdominal obesity, which increases with age and peaks between 50 to 74 years. 6 This is compounded by the fact that perceptions persist about obesity being a personal failing, discouraging individuals from seeking help, delaying diagnosis, and compounding the health burden on families and the healthcare system. Obesity significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) 7, all of which already place a growing strain on Singapore's healthcare infrastructure. The economic impact is substantial: in 2019, metabolic-risk related diseases, including obesity, diabetes, hypertension, CKD, and cardiovascular conditions, cost Singapore S$2.20 billion. 8 Of this, S$642 million were healthcare expenditures 8, and excess weight alone accounted for an estimated S$261 million in annual medical and absenteeism costs. 9 Without decisive public health action, these obesity-related comorbidities are poised to escalate into a major societal and economic burden. "This is not just a personal issue — it's a public health priority," said Dr Ben Ng, Arden Diabetes & Endocrine Clinic. "We know obesity changes how the body regulates appetite, energy storage, and metabolism. It's a disease, not a choice. Science supports this — and our response should reflect it." The Science Behind the Message Obesity is not simply about calories in and out. Research confirms it involves neuroendocrine (hormonal), genetic, and psychosocial factors, making it both preventable and treatable 10. Studies show that in Singapore, weight stigma is often driven by the belief that obesity is a personal failing, lack of willpower, or lifestyle choice leading to delayed treatment, reduced care-seeking, and poorer health outcomes, particularly in managing chronic conditions such as cardiovascular and kidney disease. 11 Beyond Labels, Toward Lasting Change "Beyond the Scale" is more than a slogan — it is a call to treat obesity as the complex, chronic disease that it is. To move away from blame, appearance-based judgments, and oversimplified narratives, toward empathy, science, and sustained health. It is an urgent appeal to rethink, retrain, and rehumanise the way we support individuals living with obesity. "The earlier we intervene, the better the outcomes," said Dr. Ng."Obesity is not a character flaw. It's a disease. And it's time we responded with the same respect, science, and care we give every other chronic condition." "Beyond the Scale" aims to: Raise awareness of obesity as a chronic, multifactorial disease. Reduce stigma and myths that hinder early care. Encourage timely, evidence-based conversations with healthcare professionals. Promote empathy and science within the medical community. Support patients with tools to take charge of their health. Singaporeans can participate by: Visiting [ ] for factual resources, use a BMI measurement tool, and locate a nearest weight management healthcare professional. Starting honest conversations with GPs, nurses, and pharmacists. Sharing content to help dismantle myths and support loved ones on their health journeys. 1.
