F.C.C. TSR Honda France Fights Back to Win Second FIM Endurance World Championship Title

19 9 月, 2022
Le Castellet, France, Sep 19, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - F.C.C. TSR Honda France, running second in the 2022 FIM* Endurance World Championship (EWC), made a comeback to win this year's championship in the final round, the Bol d'Or 2022, held at Circuit Paul Ricard on September 17 - 18. The team has won the title for the second time, its first in the 2017-2018 season.F.C.C. TSR Honda France kicked off its 2022 campaign with riders Josh Hook (29 years old, Australia), Geno Rea (33 years old, UK) and Mike Di Meglio (24 years old, France) on a Honda CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE SP.In the season-opener, the 24 Heures Motos held at Le Mans, the team qualified third, and finished third. In Round 2, the 24H SPA EWC Motos, the team started fourth on the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps grid, and although down to tenth place mid-race, made a dramatic comeback to fourth, and a last lap charge by Rea gave them third in the final results.In Round 3, the Suzuka 8 Hours, held for the first time in three years, Rea crashed during free practice and was transported by helicopter to a hospital. Hook and Di Meglio was left to ride the eight-hour classic at the Suzuka Circuit in Mie. They qualified fourth, and although they faced numerous problems throughout the race, reclaimed places and finished tenth.F.C.C. TSR Honda France headed into the final round, the Bol d'Or 2022, second overall, 23 points behind the series leader. Alan Techer (28 years old, France), one of the riders in the team's previous victory in 2017-2018, stood in for Rea, in the hope that his experience will help them reclaim the title. The team started from fourth on the grid at 3:00 pm on the 17th. Two incidents sent their placing down to 28th, but consistent and determined riding brought the team back up to 4th place by the time the race ended at 3:00 pm on the 18th. As other championship contenders fail to complete the race, F.C.C. TSR Honda France won the overall championship.Josh Hook | F.C.C. TSR Honda France"I have learned from the past to never take a result for granted before the chequered flag. We have come back from complicated situations in the past and nothing is ever certain. Like everyone else, we did our race and never gave up. We did very well, all three of us were fast, especially at night. We were quickly no longer in a position to fight for victory, so we focused on the championship, which was clearly the priority goal. We chose to take care of the engine as much as possible to avoid the problems that most of our competitors have. And it's done!"Mike Di Meglio | F.C.C. TSR Honda France"I'm very happy to finally be World Endurance Champion! I came so close with GMT94 and I'm really proud of this title after so many years of fighting for it. It was a really tough race. We had some problems and our opponents were forced to stop one after the other. When Tati Team #4 was fighting at the front, we decided to build up enough of a gap to our chaser to get out of trouble. But when they dropped down the rankings, we changed our strategy to preserve the engine as much as possible by shifting earlier on the straight. It was the best thing to do because the world championship was more important than a podium finish."Alan Techer | F.C.C. TSR Honda France"It was a complicated race for everyone, we also had some mechanical problems. The team worked hard to reduce the time spent in the pits and, with my teammates, we did our best to respect the race plan. The objective was clearly the title, and after the Suzuki's retirement, we battled with the Tati Team, my former team. This is a special emotion for me, because I win this title with the team that had already given me the chance to be champion in 2018. We also have a big thought for Gino to whom we dedicate this title."* FIM: Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme Copyright 2022 JCN Newswire. All rights reserved. (via SEAPRWire)

Team Mitsubishi Ralliart Announces Team Lineup for Asia Cross Country Rally 2022 in November JCN Newswire

Team Mitsubishi Ralliart Announces Team Lineup for Asia Cross Country Rally 2022 in November

19 9 月, 2022
TOKYO, Sep 19, 2022 - (JCN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Mitsubishi Motors Corporation announced that Team Mitsubishi Ralliart, which will compete in the Asia Cross Country Rally (AXCR) with Mitsubishi Motors' technical support, has revealed the team lineup for the upcoming AXCR 2022 to be held from November 21 to 26 in Thailand and Cambodia.Team Mitsubishi Ralliart See here for driver comments: https://youtu.be/LFXxQXiAcfc From Team Mitsubishi Ralliart, Rifat Sungkar (Indonesia), winner of the Indonesian Sprint Rally Championship, and Chayapon Yotha (Thailand), who has won the Thailand Autocross Championship, will drive two Triton rally cars in the Group T1 (prototype cross-country vehicles) category and compete for the higher position. The highly experienced Sakchai Hantrakul (Thailand) will support them in a third Triton support car. Team Mitsubishi Ralliart will have all the resources it needs to take on the AXCR challenge; TANT SPORT (Thailand), which owns the team, is joined by team director Hiroshi Masuoka, a former two-time Dakar Rally champion driver, and Mitsubishi Motors engineers will accompany the team to provide technical support. Team Mitsubishi Ralliart conducted endurance tests of the Triton rally car for 1,100 km at the Grand Prix Motor Park off-road race track in Kanchanaburi, in the west of Thailand, from August 29 to 31. Reducing the weight and improving the output characteristics of the engine have increased drivability, enabling agile handling over the twisty course. In addition, new dual dampers have improved road following performance and contributed to significant improvements in driving stability and rough road drivability. Rifat Sungkar praised the feel of the car in his first experience in the Triton: "Rally drivers pass through many different corners, one by one. Therefore, it is crucial for the rally car to have excellent maneuverability and drivability as the driver intends, and high durability and reliability over rough roads. A good co-driver who can navigate accurately and quickly is also important for a successful result. Through the endurance tests, we were able to confirm that the Triton rally car delivers excellent performance in terms of rough road drivability and durability." Having participated in the previous endurance test in June, Chayapon Yotha responded positively after driving the improved car at anticipated rally speeds:"Speed is not everything in rally competition. In order to win, it is important to maximize the sense of unity between the driver and the rally car, and to control the tempo flexibly between acceleration and deceleration. We have confirmed that the Triton rally car has a great finish and responds precisely and agilely to driver input." Hiroshi Masuoka, team director of Team Mitsubishi Ralliart, commented:"It is a privilege to welcome such talented drivers to the team. Rifat has lots of experience in sprint rallying, so if we do a good job as a team to manage the long-distance aspect of a cross-country rally, he will deliver a great performance. Chayapon has extensive experience in cross-country rallies and improves every time he gets in the car, so I'm expecting good outcomes from him. With regard to the Triton, the two endurance tests enabled us to identify issues and deal with them. We will carry out a shakedown test in November before AXCR 2022, but the Triton is looking good so far and I believe the drivers will be able to deliver tough, solid performances."

Pertamina-assisted MSMEs pull in crowds at Tong Tong Fair ACN Newswire

Pertamina-assisted MSMEs pull in crowds at Tong Tong Fair

19 9 月, 2022
JAKARTA, Sep 19, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Several products made by micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) assisted by state-owned oil and gas company PT Pertamina sold out at the recent Tong Tong Fair in The Hague, the Netherlands.Visitors check out handicraft products from Indonesia at the Tong Tong Fair, which was held in The Hague, Netherlands, from September 1–11, 2022. (ANTARA/HO-PT Pertamina (Persero))The fair was held from September 1-11, 2022, after a gap of two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Foods from Dapur Bunda Duri, De Harvest Jaya, and Bakul Jamu Euis, as well as fashion products of Cetak Godhong and Dela Tapis, Sasirangan, and handicrafts made by Joglo Ayu Tenan and Bahalap were among the products that proved a draw for visitors.Indonesian Ambassador to the Netherlands, Mayerfas, welcomed the participation of Indonesian SOEs, which brought a number of MSME products to the annual Tong Tong Fair."It needs to continue to be carried out to encourage MSMEs to go global and increase their competitiveness," he said, according to a statement released by Pertamina.He also lauded the effort made by the SOEs Ministry to open the Roemah BUMN pavilion to enable several SOE-assisted MSMEs from Indonesia to exhibit their products at the fair.Pertamina showcased 175 types of superior products from various cities of Indonesia at the fair, including Yogyakarta, Balikpapan, Dumai, Banjarmasin, Pontianak, Lampung, and Tomohon, Sulawesi.Products from the fashion, handicrafts, and food sectors were selected through a fairly long process after being curated based on product quality criteria that were in accordance with the needs of the global market."I am proud that the rubik balado product could pass the curation to the Netherlands, (it) can make the city of Duri Riau proud, which previously did not have regional specialties," said Diah Novi Wulandari, owner of Dapur Bunda Duri, an MSME assisted by Pertamina since 2020.Wulandari, who currently has more than 15 employees and more than 70 MSME partners in Duri, did not expect her products to be of interest to residents of The Hague and surrounding areas. However, her products sold out in less than a week.Besides rubik balado, Cetak Godhong's ecoprints also found a place in the hearts of visitors."What I never dreamed of was that my product could participate in the Tong Tong Fair in the Netherlands," said Endah Hariyani, owner of Cetak Godhong.Cetak Godhong makes environmentally friendly handmade products by printing fabrics using natural dyes and making motifs manually using leaves.The use of leaves from various types of plants as motifs and natural coloring lend the products an exclusive air since no product has the exact same design.Vice president of CSR & SMEPP at Pertamina, Fajriyah Usman, said showcasing MSME products at the Tong Tong Fair 2022 was a complete success."The fostered partners provided quality local products that had very high artistic and cultural value. We got a lot of visitors with a fairly significant number of sales. All visitors seemed to enjoy the product offerings and were enthusiastic about the lucky dip draw that we gave," she informed.Fajriyah said she hopes that the Tong Tong Fair would accommodate the hopes and aspirations of Pertamina-assisted MSMEs as well as encourage the entrepreneurs' spirit of independence and spur them to become strong and professional players.In collaboration with the trade attache at the Indonesian Embassy in the Netherlands, Pertamina-assisted MSMEs' products are currently on display at the House of Indonesia, a one-stop shopping showcase that provides everything from products to information for prospective European business players."This promises a great opportunity for MSEs to expand their overseas marketing reach," Fajriyah added.The involvement of MSMEs in the Tong Tong Fair was a form of the SOEs' support for achieving the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) targets and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Point 8, namely decent work and economic growth, which is being realized through funding and coaching programs for SMEs.This is part of the social and environmental responsibility push for realizing economic benefits for the community and driving the national economy.Through MSME programs and the spirit of "Energizing Your Future," Pertamina is striving to continue to encourage all MSME partners to level up and go global.Contact: Fajriyah Usman, VP Corporate Communications, PT Pertamina (Persero)M: +62 858 8330 8686, Email: fajriyah.usman@pertamina.com, URL: https://www.pertamina.comWritten by: Yashinta Difa Pramudyani, Editor: Sri Haryati (c) ANTARA 2022 Copyright 2022 ACN Newswire.

Probinex to tackle traditional finance creating a new all-in-one ecosystem SeaPRwire

Probinex to tackle traditional finance creating a new all-in-one ecosystem

16 9 月, 2022
New York, NY, September 16, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – A native utility token, staking program, crypto-friendly e-wallet, an audited platform for a broader public, and eventually, a 24/7 exchange combining traditional assets with cryptocurrencies. Probinex is an ambitious project that aims to build a bridge between the world of traditional finance, fintech, and crypto. It aims to offer access to cryptocurrencies in a centralized and regulated environment allowing more institutions, retail traders and even the general public to safely and legally partake in this endeavour. The story of Probinex began with the initial token sale of native PBX token that generated over $17,6 million. Recently, the offer of products has been enriched by the StayKing program allowing PBX holders to get monthly shares of Probinex’s portfolio management, which has achieved long-term profitability despite the deep bear market. Soon, holders of PBX in the StayKing program will be able to benefit from other products from the kitchen of Probinex. All-in-one ecosystem Native utility token PBX The blood and soul of all Probinex projects is its native PBX token that provides its holders with a number of utilities. PBX token was emitted in 2021 in a limited number of 1 billion coins with 550 million allocated for initial token sale. The token sale quickly spread all allocated PBX being sold in only 11 months with a value equal to $17.6 million Currently, the token is available on Probit and Pancake Swap allowing crypto users to get it via both centralized and decentralized exchange. Each month, Probinex buys back PBX from the market to avoid the need of minting new tokens and not to give inflation a chance. Stay king with StayKing PBX token holders have the unique opportunity to enter the premium program to get their share of the overall success of the Probinex project. The token can be staked for a period from 1 to 10 years while the owners of the staked token receive monthly rewards derived from the results of the portfolio management and the earnings from other products, such as Earnio, pbxpay, and eventually, the Probinex exchange. The value of rewards depends on the length of the StayKing program that generates the coefficient of shares. The longer the token is staked, the higher the monthly reward. For instance – if the overall Probinex project generates a monthly revenue of $1 million, the company buys back PBX in this value and distributes it across PBX holders in the StayKing program according to the length and distribution of their particular program. Currently, more than 410 milion PBX are staked while the portfolio management generated over 7% revenue for their owners during the past four months. pbxpay – Your money is finally yours To facilitate the financial activities of its users, Probinex has created its own native e-wallet that is crypto-friendly and doesn’t pose any redundant limits on its users. The e-wallet complies with the EMI regulation and provides its users with a unique IBAN making it the most up-to-date financial tool for crypto enthusiasts allowing fast and easy international payments. What’s more, with PBX locked in the StayKing program, users can get special discounts and other advantages in pbxpay, as well as their fair share of the overall performance of the product. Earnio – Gateway to the world of crypto Cryptocurrencies are becoming more and more adopted by the broader public. However, many people often hesitate whether to take the risk of entering such an extremely volatile market. That’s where Earnio steps in. It’s an audited platform that allows users to profit from the potential of cryptocurrencies without the need of watching the market closely every day. The users can simply deposit funds to their account and Probinex’s skilled traders and authentic algorithms will do their best to increase its value over time. Earnio users benefit from the share of Probinex trading on a monthly basis without any unnecessary fees. What’s more, owners of PBX in StayKing get special discounts and benefits when using Earnio as well. Exchange that doesn’t sleep Probinex echange is the ultimate goal and flagship-to-be of the entire project fleet. Trading crypto, Fiat, or other assets anywhere, anytime, there are no limits of the traditional financial world.. The 24/7 operation will finally give everyone the freedom they deserve. In addition to a completely new financial system, holders of PBX in the StayKing program will get their share from the overall activities of Probinex, including the revenue coming from the native exchange, as well as discounts on fees and other utilities. Step by step on the road map While Probinex is a relatively new project, it’s managed to carve its stains to the world of crypto in a significant way. The launch of the project was linked to the token sale of PBX that took place in 2011. All 550 million PBX allocated for the token sale were sold over 11 months generating revenue of $17.6 million. As of the start of 2022, PBX was successfully listed to ProBit, CoinMarketCap, and Coingecko. In the second quarter of 2022, the StayKing program was launched and currently, there are over 410 milion PBX tokens staked in the program. Two important products are now in the final stage of their development – crypto-friendly e-wallet pbxpay providing its users with IBAN enabling fast and easy international payments without redundant limits, and the Earnio platform that will serve users as a gateway to the world of crypto.

Magic Club NFT Announces the Launching of the Latest Landing Page SeaPRwire

Magic Club NFT Announces the Launching of the Latest Landing Page

16 9 月, 2022
The Magic Club NFT project, which focuses on actual usage of their governance token, opens a website landing page. Seoul, Korea, September 16, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – Magic Club, NFT project promoted by the Adam Gallery Foundation in Singapore, said they opened a landing page ( magicclub.io ) on September 15 ahead of the launch of three key projects: “Magic Club NFT Marketplace”, “Magic Club NFT” and “Magic Shoes(M2E)”. Despite the Crypto Winter, the outlook for the blockchain market is still optimistic. According to the Bloomberg report, one-third of NFTs are useless and the other one-third are sold at low cost, so more than half of them eventually fail. However, at the same time, projects like Moonbirds got $280 million in transactions in just two days, surpassing a total of $477 million, showing that projects with great utility are sure to succeed. In the end, when valuable NFTs are linked with tokens with many usages, the future of the project will be bright despite the crypto winter and the bear market. Adam Gallery’s main project, Magic Club, has a philosophy that “the usage of tokens is the core of the project.” Magic Club’s representative said, “It is a key proposition of the Magic Club team that we should be able to present practical benefits by connecting to the real economy,” adding, “We expect to realize our philosophy and get closer to customers through this landing page opening.” The main move that Magic Club will present is to attract projects with solid usage and revenue models such as Play to Earn (P2E) and Move to Earn (M2E). For this purpose, Magic Club has built a strong reward system with the ecosystem of ‘Magic Club NFT Marketplace’, ‘Magic Club Universal NFT Project’, and ‘Magic Shoes (M2E). First of all, “Magic Club NFT Marketplace” is an open exchange where anyone can freely and conveniently trade NFT projects, and users’ contributions to the ecosystem are measured as points and paid with MCT tokens every week. In the trading activity pool, both buyers and sellers can receive points proportional to the transaction amount based on the conclusion of the transaction, and in the social activity pool, they can receive points that can exchange tokens only with reference activities. The MCT token, which is the core of the reward system, is a general-purpose token that connects all projects of the Magic Club, which allows users to pay freely at the Magic Club NFT Marketplace. Since it can be connected to the partner company’s projects, the actual usage will be endless, and the connection with the Play to Earn (P2E) and Move to Earn (M2E) revenue models is also planned. Transparency and reliability through the progress of DAO resolutions using MCT by users in the ecosystem were not missed. In addition, MCT tokens will not be issued additionally after initial issuance, but will drive the value of tokens by adjusting the supply through a burning mechanism approved by the DAO. Magic Club NFT is a unique NFT of Magic Club and consists of four dokkaebi gods. It has the meaning of encompassing all ages. In addition, the character’s own work is highly praised as a work made with high-quality illustrations. The four characters are in line with the philosophy of the MAGIC CLUB project, which says that community users who fail to invest in cryptocurrency will be given wealth and honor through Magic Club NFT. Lastly, ‘Magic Shoes (M2E)’ is a project that combines global values that value environmental protection. Instead of using fumes-producing vehicles, you can purchase MAGIC SHOES NFTs and make money while protecting the environment through GPS-based activities. It can be applied not only to walking, running, but also to hiking and biking. Magic Club plans to update the service that can be checked in their own language from anywhere in the world based on the access IP soon, and plans to conduct NFT minting in October. Details will be posted on Discord.

LEO12 Reports on ‘ SARB’s guidance notice will lead to massive opportunities for South African crypto participants’ SeaPRwire

LEO12 Reports on ‘ SARB’s guidance notice will lead to massive opportunities for South African crypto participants’

16 9 月, 2022
Johannesburg, South Africa, September 16, 2022 – (SEAPRWire) – LEO12 has released a report on ‘ SARB’s guidance notice will lead to massive opportunities for South African crypto participants’. Crypto asset exchange LEO12 evaluates that the SARB’s guidance notice have begun the first stage of the crypto industry’s development in South Africa. With the crypto space maturing rapidly, regulators around the world are accelerating efforts to either embrace or regulate crypto assets. The South African Reserve Bank’s Prudential Authority has issued a guidance note to banks discouraging them from cutting off companies that offer cryptocurrency services. South Africa’s main banking industry regulator, the Prudential Authority, has said some banks’ decisions to terminate relationships with crypto entities “may pose a threat to financial integrity in general.” In addition, the regulator suggested that avoiding cryptocurrency entities completely could potentially weaken banks’ risk management processes. According to the officials of LEO12 exchange, “Many other central banks and financial institutions around the world now adhere to policies to tighten regulations on the crypto sector. Therefore, we welcome this SARB’s guidance note very positively. This means that the South African government is convinced of the development of the crypto industry and intends to take the lead in Africa. We look forward to South Africa becoming the most innovative crypto industry hub in Africa.” “We fully understand that banks are a key service provider for crypto asset businesses, connecting users with local fiat money. And the proper regulations provide trust to crypto operators and users, helping the market growth. The SARB’s guidance note is the first step in promoting cooperation between banks and crypto operators, and we hope this will help more people in South Africa get one step closer to Crypto.” “The top priority for the LEO12 exchange is to ensure that our customers trade their assets safely and to prevent illegal money laundering. To do so, we believe that it will be easier to work with crypto operators and existing banks under some clear regulations to provide customers with more solutions, giving them confidence in crypto. It’s paradoxical when you think about the ideology of crypto and blockchain technology, but if you look at crypto from a financial perspective.” LEO12 is conducting a safe and reliable crypto asset service to customers in South Africa within the regulatory frameworks of the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) and the Intergovernmental Fintech Working Group (IFWG) and is constantly commenting when FSCA designs the regulatory framework. LEO12 also strengthened monitoring and reporting of crypto asset transactions by completing the goAML registration (REF/SHREG-220210-0000053) in February 2022 to prevent money laundering and terrorist financing in accordance with the Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC). About LEO12 crypto exchange LEO12 exchange is a digital asset trading platform based in South Africa.

Hong Kong Investor Relations Association (HKIRA) Announces Winners of the 8th IR Awards 2022

16 9 月, 2022
HONG KONG, Sep 16, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Hong Kong Investor Relations Association (HKIRA) today announced the winners of the 8th Investor Relations Awards 2022.Friends from the investment community and industry professionals attend the 8th Investor Relations Awards Presentation CeremonyIn its eighth consecutive year, the IR Awards recognises and honours investor relations (IR) excellence and best practices among Hong Kong listed companies and IR professionals. With the COVID-19 pandemic gradually easing, physical events have started to resume. This year's IR Awards Conference and Awards Presentation Ceremony took a hybrid mode, with IR experts and professionals invited to join discussions sharing their different perspectives on strategies, latest trends, effective processes and best practices of investor relations. HKIRA was particularly honoured to have Mr Christopher Hui, GBS, JP, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury, as the guest of honour and keynote speaker at the Awards Presentation Ceremony.The 8th IR Awards 2022 had widespread support from listed companies and the investment sector. There were a total of 152 company nominees in the Awards this year, reflective of a growing awareness of the importance of investor relations. As in previous years, the award winners were first nominated by the public, then selected via online polling by qualified voters among buy-side and sell-side investors. More than 790 investors from over 290 financial institutions voted this year. The continued support is proof of the recognition the IR Awards enjoys in the investor community. With investor relations gaining emphasis in the industry, HKIRA has kept striving to enhance the standard of IR excellence in Hong Kong by optimising the award mechanism to make sure of the quality of the awards. Of all the award categories, "Overall Best IR Company" is the most prestigious as the winner is selected by the judging panel among the winners of all the award categories for demonstrating all-round exemplary performance in investor relations. This year, the winners of Overall Best IR Company by company size - Large Cap, Mid Cap, and Small Cap - are China Resources Beer (Holdings) Company Limited; Yue Yuen Industrial (Holdings) Limited; and Sa Sa International Holdings Limited respectively.Dr Eva Chan, Founding Chairman of HKIRA, said, "We are very happy to be able to meet all of you in person again at this year's event, in this gathering of our member companies, IROs and friends from the investment community. In this post-pandemic new normal, the event again took the 'hybrid' mode, with the conference and award ceremony streaming live online so a wider audience could join. I would like to express my gratitude to the different participating parties and their assistance in helping us prepare for the event. "In the past year, the mainland government tightened policies on specific sectors like Education, Real Estate, IT, among others, which negatively affected the business and share prices of some listed companies. As a result, the number of participating companies for the IR Award this year is 10% lower than the previous year. To uphold the standard of the IR Award, the panel judge has decided to reduce the number of awards this year. With travel restricted between China and Hong Kong, investors have relied heavily on IROs in the two places for latest information to help them plan investment strategies and make decisions wisely, hence they are requiring listed companies to be more proactive and effective in disclosing information. IROs have thus become a crucial information portal and a major bridge for companies to interact with investors, helping listed companies to connect with local and global investors and analysts under the new normal."Strategic Public Relations Group is again proud to be the Official Public Relations Partner and Diamond Sponsor of HKIRA IR Awards 2022.
