Utilising AI-Technology For An Enhanced Retailing Ecosystem

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 23 (Bernama) -- Nano Commerce Sdn. Bhd., the commercial arm of NanoMalaysia Berhad (NMB), Malaysia’s leading agency in nanotechnology and advanced solutions commercialisation under the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MOSTI), is proud to launch ezyCart, Southeast Asia’s first and only Smart Shopping Cart what is 100% conceptualised, designed and developed in Malaysia by our investee company, Retailetics Sdn Bhd (Retailetics).
 
When the pandemic struck, larger grocery retailers, namely hypermarkets & supermarkets, were quick to adopt new innovations to facilitate checkout, locate products in the store and keep customers up to date on products and promotions. It is unlikely they will ever go back to the pre-pandemic ways now that their customers are used to, expect deeper personalisation, and avoid checkout queues with seamless checkout and cashless payment services inside the cart.
 
With an intuitive user interface that is supported by real-time data from sensors, cameras and Artificial Intelligence (AI), ezyCart enables grocery retailers to engage shoppers and deliver personalised and frictionless experiences inside their stores while gaining access to real-time insights into shopper preferences and behaviour and boosting brand value, footfall, sales and customer retention. ezyCart and its shopping systems are patent-pending in 9 major patent offices worldwide.
 
NanoMalaysia Berhad Chief Executive Officer, Dr Rezal Khairi Ahmad said: "The digitally enabled shopping cart powered by Internet of Nano Things (IoNT) system, data analytics and artificial intelligence promises both significantly improved shopping convenience and safety in terms of quick information accessibility, product location navigation and on-site payment as well as minimising physical contact.”
 
Since January 2020, Retailetics has successfully developed ezyCart using IoNT Solution for Retail Platform, including integrating beacon technology for cart navigation, items detection and promotional activities at the designated shopping sections. This solution, paired with wireless technology, enables efficient power management of the carts. Through this project, Retailetics created an enhanced retailing ecosystem through three components: ezyList, ezyRetail, and ezyCart.
 
Dr Rezal added, "NanoMalaysia's joint effort with Retailetics is an outcome of the 4IR-inspired REVOLUTIoNT programme to digitalise further our lifestyle for a better alignment with Malaysia's 4IR Policy and MyDigital Blueprint. It will also assist the company and other potential enterprises in capturing a slice of the Internet of Nano Things market at USD 36.17 billion by 2025 at a CAGR of 24.12% from 2020 to 2025."
 
For the project's next phase, the development of Retailetics' custom-manufactured carts is targeted for the second quarter of 2023, while ezyList and ezyRetail have been further enhanced with new features for better functionality. ezyRetail can now track ezyCart usage, status and other functional information. At the same time, the ezySupport application has been developed to support customers shopping in-store who might face difficulties with their ezyCart, such as price and promotion mismatch, barcode or other technical issues on products that require store personnel assistance.

AM Best affirms credit ratings of Vietnam’s Bao Minh Insurance

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 22 (Bernama) -- AM Best has affirmed Vietnam-based Bao Minh Insurance Corporation’s (BMI) financial strength rating of “B++” (Good) and the long-term issuer credit rating of “bbb” (Good).

The credit rating agency said the ratings, which have a stable outlook, reflect BMI’s balance sheet strength as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.

“The ratings also factor in a neutral impact from the company’s majority ownership by the State Capital Investment Corporation, which is the sovereign wealth fund of Vietnam,” AM Best said in a statement.

It said BMI’s balance sheet strength is underpinned by its risk-adjusted capitalisation, which was at the strongest level at year-end 2021 and is expected to remain at this level over the near to medium term, as measured by Best’s Capital Adequacy Ratio.

Capital adequacy remains sufficient to support planned business growth despite limited capital generation over recent years.

In addition, AM Best viewed BMI’s investment portfolio to be of moderate risk with the majority of it allocated toward term deposits and the remainder held in non-rated corporate bonds, equity investments including a joint venture, and real estate.

According to the rating agency, BMI maintains a basic approach to asset liability management despite some exposure to longer-duration products within its business mix.

AM Best stated that BMI has moderate reinsurance dependence to support its underwriting of large limit risks and help manage catastrophe exposure accumulation.

Its business profile was assessed by AM Best as neutral and the company is ranked as the fourth-largest non-life insurer in Vietnam based on 2021 direct premiums.

The company’s underwriting portfolio is diversified by line of business, although the company has a single-market concentration in Vietnam.

“I am honoured to receive this award on behalf of the MyCEB team. As the national bureau, we have worked consistently hard to steer the direction of Malaysia’s business events sector by playing a proactive role that would demonstrate our readiness to welcome international business events back to the nation. To ensure a robust recovery for the business events sector, MyCEB has developed several development programmes and initiatives that is in line with Malaysia Business Events Strategic Marketing Plan 2021 - 2030,” says Dato’ Sri Dr. Abdul Khani Daud, CEO of MyCEB. “I am confident that Malaysia is certainly on track to drive positive momentum for the business events industry as we head towards 2023 and beyond. It is a proud moment for us and the team to be recognised by our peers across the industries.”
 
Even during the bleakest time in modern history, when the world was introduced to the deadly coronavirus, the business events industry remained a beacon of hope for many industry partners and stakeholders in the sector. “Business events was brought to its knees in early 2020, with many major events around the globe were disrupted. Even smaller-scale business events were unable to take place, and networking in-person had to be brought to a halt. We at MyCEB took this opportunity to utilise the downtime by developing fresh value propositions, recovery packages, and digital solutions, which went a long way towards keeping the destination as top-of-mind,” added Dato’ Sri Dr. Abdul Khani.
 
In 2020, MyCEB unveiled its ambitious business events campaign called Meet in Malaysia. in ensuring a quick revival of the sector, the campaign is supported with various programmes to strengthen MyCEB and Malaysia’s profile and credentials, both regionally and globally, such as ‘Let’s Meet Now’, ‘Let’s Meet Locally’, and ‘Let’s Meet Tomorrow’.
 
MyCEB encourage and assist its industry partners to restart the economy whilst gaining momentum by coming up with the Restart and Responsible programme.

These two initiatives are aimed at strengthening the business events industry for Malaysia and for the region.
 
MyCEB has also rolled out several initiatives to boost the market and cushion challenges faced by industry players such as development of the special BE lane at major airports to ensure smooth entry process to delegates and to elevate positive image and reputation towards Malaysia; MySafe Business Events Planner, a step-by-step digital planner to assist and guide international business events travellers and organisers through the safety measures as well as to rebuild public confidence in our business events industry; and the recently held KPI development training, to name a few.
 
In order to stay relevant and ensure Malaysia welcomes consistent and prestigious events, MyCEB had initiated the Memorandum of Cooperation (MoC) with the involvement of Malaysian business events stakeholders represented by Malaysian Association of Convention & Exhibition Organisers & Suppliers (MACEOS) and Indonesian business events stakeholders represented by Indonesian Exhibition Companies Association (IECA-Asperapi). This collaboration aims to amplify the promising future in trading businesses activities to expand and pursue opportunities in both countries. While this is the first MoC signed with another country, MyCEB intend to extend similar collaboration with Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and India in 2023 to create more B2B opportunities which will also contribute to the quicker recovery of Malaysia’s business events industry.
 
MyCEB on behalf of Malaysia has successfully signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with UFI (Global Association of the Exhibition Industry) whereas both parties have decided to enter into a co-operative relationship for the general purpose of providing access for the Malaysian business events workforce to the UFI Certified Professional designation (the “UCP”).
 
MyCEB is currently embarking on the development of Malaysia Business Events Standard (BE My Standard). The vision is to ensure Malaysia has high quality standards for products and services in business events Industry, in order for Malaysia to become international business events destination of choice.

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 15 (Bernama) -- A total of 27 winners in different categories were announced out of a field of 52 participating organisations (see appendix for full list of winners) at the 2022 National Annual Corporate Report Awards (NACRA) jointly organised by Bursa Malaysia Berhad (Bursa), Malaysian Institute of Accountants (MIA) and The Malaysian Institute of Certified Public Accountants (MICPA).

Now in its 32^nd year, NACRA 2022 continues to enable further excellence and improvement in corporate reporting in Malaysia. Reflecting the key developments in the global reporting landscape, the NACRA assessment criteria is evolving to emphasise on both financial and non-financial information disclosures. This encompasses:

· the compliance aspect of statements such as the financial statements
· the relevant corporate reporting under Bursa Malaysia listing requirements, and
· the quality of non-financial information such as sustainability in the annual report.

In his congratulatory message delivered at the virtual awards ceremony, Tan Sri Abdul Wahid Omar, Chairman, Bursa Malaysia stated that “Corporate reporting can help companies be both excellent and accountable by pushing you to reflect on the purpose that drives you, the strategies that you frame, the decisions that you make and the value creation or dilution outcomes that ensue.”

He expects the focus on sustainability to accelerate “as the ESG agenda is both viable and highly relevant in a landscape rife with unprecedented risks” and as “ESG funds remained a top choice for investors and ESG investments continue to outperform globally.”

TESSA THERAPEUTICS ANNOUNCES NEW CLINICAL DATA FROM PHASE 1 ALLOGENEIC STUDY PRESENTED AT 2022 ANNUAL MEETING OF AMERICAN SOCIETY OF HEMATOLOGY (ASH)

Oral podium presentation highlights data demonstrating a 79% overall response rate and complete responses in 43% of relapsed or refractory CD30-positive lymphomas treated with Tessa’s “off the shelf” CD30.CAR EBVST cell therapy (TT1X)

Therapy well tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities or evidence of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) observed

SINGAPORE, Dec 12 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tessa Therapeutics Ltd. (Tessa), a clinical-stage cell therapy company developing next-generation cancer treatments for hematological malignancies and solid tumors, today announced enhanced clinical data from an ongoing Phase 1 study (NCT04288726) of TT11X, an allogeneic “off the shelf” CD30.CAR-modified Epstein-Barr virus-specific T-cell (EBVST) therapy being co-developed by Baylor College of Medicine and Tessa. The results, detailed in an oral podium presentation at the 64^th Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH) on December 10, demonstrated TT11X to be well-tolerated at all dosing levels, eliciting a 79% overall response rate and complete disappearance of tumor in six patients.

The podium presentation, entitled, “Evaluating Safety and Clinical Efficacy of Off-the-Shelf CD30.CAR-Modified Epstein-Barr Virus-Specific T cells in Patients with CD30+ Lymphoma,” reported data from 14 heavily pre-treated patients with advanced CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma who were administered TT11X across three dosing levels  (4 × 10⁷ CD30.CAR EBVSTs, 1 × 10⁸ CD30.CAR EBVSTs, and 4 × 10⁸ CD30.CAR EBVSTs). An overall response rate of 79% (11/14 patients) was observed across all three dose levels, including six complete responses and six partial responses. The strongest responses were achieved in patients treated at the higher dose levels with additional infusions resulting in increasing effectiveness.

TT11X was demonstrated to be well tolerated with no dose limiting toxicities observed, including no evidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and only two patients having reversible grade 4 cytopenia.

“The data reported at ASH suggest that allogeneic CD30.CAR EBVSTs provide a potentially safe and efficacious treatment for CD30-positive lymphomas and affirm previously reported data indicating the technology may avert GVHD and immediate rejection even after multiple infusions,” stated David H. Quach, Ph.D., Instructor at Center for Cell and Gene Therapy, Baylor College of Medicine, USA. “Importantly, CD30.CAR EBVSTs elicited a clinical response in 11 of 14 patients with advanced CD30-positive Hodgkin lymphoma including six complete responses. Based on these results, CD30.CAR EBVSTs appear to be a promising platform for off-the-shelf cancer immunotherapy.”

MCKL STUDENTS LAUDED AS OUTSTANDING CAMBRIDGE LEARNERS AWARDS

 

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 13 (Bernama) -- Five students from the Cambridge A Level programme at Methodist College Kuala Lumpur (MCKL) were recognised as outstanding performing learners in Malaysia, and globally, in the June 2022 examination series. In announcing the results, the students were honoured at the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards ceremony, hosted by the Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE) in Subang Jaya recently.

 
Alexander Tan, Anitej Palur, Lee Cheng Zhen, and Pearlynn Khoo achieved Top in the World award for Mathematics and their classmate Tan Zhen Mei scored High Achievement in the German Language syllabus. “I am deeply humbled by the honour,” said aspiring doctor, Anitej. “I will take this as a sign to continue working harder to achieve my goals. While preparing for my AS paper, I have learned to become more independent in my studies and now have a clearer path ahead for my future.”
 
Anitej’s course mate, Alexander shared the same sentiment, “Securing a top spot in the Outstanding Cambridge Learner Awards helped reassure me that I could reach new heights. Receiving support from my lecturer gave me the push to excel, as well as giving solid advice whenever I was stuck. What’s more, my parents showing support throughout by making my life outside of academics easier allowed me to perform as such.”
 
Of course, such an accolade did not come without its challenges. As with most students, Pearlynn experienced some anxiety when preparing for her exams, “The programme is also fast paced, which taught me to have better time management, and the help I received from the lecturers, who were always ready to help and listen to our challenges in their studies, encouraged me to keep working hard, and it paid off.”
