foundit Insights Tracker: Malaysia and Philippines Thrive with 85% and 75% Retail Hiring Growth, Singapore Steadies Ahead

SINGAPORE, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - foundit (formerly Monster APAC & ME), a leading jobs and talent platform, has released the annual foundit Insights Tracker (fit) report, offering comprehensive insights into hiring trends across Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines. This in-depth analysis sheds light on the evolving employment landscapes in these dynamic Southeast Asian economies.The tracker analyses labour market trends in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines, offering key insights into hiring dynamics across these job markets. A closer look at the hiring trends shows that the Philippines recorded a robust 20% YoY growth in hiring primarily driven by its expansion of retail, logistics, and BPO sectors. Malaysia also experienced a 10% rise in hiring activities, while Singapore saw an 11% drop, reflecting a slowdown, especially in industries like IT and BFSI.Commenting on these findings, V Suresh, CEO of foundit, said, “The evolving employment landscape across Southeast Asia is shaped by key factors such as digital adoption, workplace dynamics, and shifting compensation strategies. Malaysia has leveraged its digital momentum, particularly in retail and hospitality, to drive substantial hiring growth. Similarly, the Philippines has capitalised on consumer demand to expand its retail sector. Meanwhile, in Singapore, technology and efficiency are redefining industry roles. Overall, businesses that strike a balance between technology-driven strategies and employee well-being will be best positioned to navigate these shifts and sustain long-term growth."Malaysia recorded the highest YoY growth in Retail hiring at 85%, followed by the Philippines at 75%, where growth was driven by rapid expansion of retail outlets and rising middle-class consumption. Meanwhile, Singapore's retail industry experienced a 9% YoY decline in hiring activities, which reflects the maturity of its online shopping business.A sector-specific analysis showed that substantial investments, visa-free policies and spending on digital advertising across borders made by the Malaysian government led to the 42% YoY growth in hiring in the hospitality sector. Meanwhile, growing infrastructural investments, rising tourism, and the use of smart hospitality technology like digital booking systems enabled the Philippines to achieve a notable 30% growth.Singapore's hospitality industry saw a 15% decline in recruitment annually, reflecting a slowdown in workforce demand within the sector. This low performance might be attributed to limited promotional initiatives, tighter visa norms and technological shifts such as jobs being outsourced to artificial intelligence (AI) and automation.Functional outlook analysis across sectors indicated that Malaysia saw a 25% annual increase in roles across Software, Hardware, and Telecom. This resilience reflects the high demand for experts in AI, machine learning, and cloud computing, aligning with the global digitalisation trend as companies place a higher priority on technology for long-term growth and sustainability. In contrast, Singapore experienced a sharp 45% decline in tech roles, and Philippines faced challenges at -8% YoY.Hiring activity in the Marketing & Communications industry saw an upward annual trend in both the Philippines and Malaysia, reaching 43% and 36%, respectively. Digital campaigns, the growth of social media, SEO & SEM, and expanding e-commerce technology have propelled this surge. In contrast, Singapore's Marketing & Communications sector faced a 9% decline in hiring demand, primarily due to reduced budgets for traditional marketing roles.A notable shift was observed in HR & Administration roles, with the Philippines experiencing remarkable growth of 47% over the last year. This was driven by the expansion of industries such as Retail, Outsourcing, and Infrastructure sectors, as companies prioritised scaling their HR functions to manage workforce growth, streamline operations, and enhance employee engagement. At the same time, HR roles in Malaysia grew by 28%, while Singapore saw a 12% decline, most likely due to organisations in the country shifting towards automation and outsourcing of administrative functions to optimise costs.About foundit Insights TrackerThe foundit Insights Tracker (fit) offers a detailed perspective on hiring patterns in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines, focusing on the demand for specific skills, available positions, and salary ranges in the market. This analysis provides essential insights for job seekers and employers navigating the evolving employment landscape.Period for the ReportThe period considered for the foundit Insights Tracker (fit) data is December 2023 vs. December 2024, offering a comprehensive view of hiring trends in these key Asian markets.About foundit - APAC & Middle Eastfoundit, formerly Monster (APAC & ME) is Asia’s leading jobs & talent platform offering comprehensive employment solutions to recruiters and job seekers across APAC & ME.

CGFNS International Reports Nurse Migration Rates to the U.S. Remained High in 2024

CGFNS International Reports Nurse Migration Rates to the U.S. Remained High in 2024

PHILADELPHIA, PA, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - A new CGFNS International report indicates that a robust annual rate of nurse migration into the United States held steady in 2024 as healthcare systems continued to look to foreign-educated nurses to help address persistent staffing shortages.However, in its 2024 Nurse Migration Report, the organization also said the current high rates were likely unsustainable amid persisting visa retrogression and caps on employment-based green cards for nurses, along with new immigration policies being implemented by the Trump Administration that will likely have further impact on visa availability and processing times.CGFNS, a global health workforce non-profit that verifies credentials of healthcare professionals for immigration authorities and state licensing boards, reported that in fiscal year 2024 it received 24,733 applications for its VisaScreen® (VS) service. While this is a 4.6% drop from FY 2023, the organization noted application levels remain significantly higher than pre-pandemic figures, with the 2024 figure at nearly 200% above FY 2018.Other key data from the report:While VS certifications went to nurses from more than 100 countries in 2024, 92% were educated in one of the top 10 countries on the list.The Philippines continued to account for more than 51% of VS certificates, followed by Canada with 8% and Kenya with 6.5%. There has been a slight shift in this distribution recently, with the Philippines dropping from 60% of the total last year, while Kenya, Nigeria, and Ghana have all showed considerable growth in their share.Like countries of education, visa categories are also significantly concentrated, with 76% of VS certificates issued to those seeking permanent green cards (such as EB-3 visas), while TN (12%) and H1-B (11%) made up the only other significant categories."These figures confirm what others are seeing, that U.S. healthcare systems continue to depend on nurse immigrants to address persistent staffing shortages. Disruptions to this pipeline of qualified nurses would have far-reaching consequences, exacerbating workforce shortages, increasing patient care loads, and worsening nurse burnout," said Dr. Peter Preziosi, President and CEO of CGFNS. "This is a multilayered global challenge that demands collaborative and innovative solutions among source and receiving countries."CGFNS International is approved by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to satisfy federal credential screening requirements for occupational visas for nine categories of foreign-educated healthcare professionals.To offer global context for the U.S. numbers, the report also analyzes worldwide migration of nurses and healthcare professionals, particularly as both source and destination countries continue to grapple with balancing the demand for skilled healthcare workers against the challenges of retaining their domestic workforces. It noted that some countries in Africa, including Zimbabwe and Ghana, have paused the release of certificates that are needed by nurses to emigrate, while Nigeria has introduced in-country service requirements that nurses must fulfill prior to migration. Other governments, such as Namibia, have pursued the pathway of creating incentives for nurses who choose to stay.Download the 2024 Nurse Migration Report: Balancing sustained workforce demand amid shifting migration flows.Contact InformationDavid St. Johndstjohn@cgfns.orgSOURCE: CGFNS International Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Naoris Protocol Unveils World’s First Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet with Over 2.5 Million Transactions in First Week

Naoris Protocol Unveils World’s First Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet with Over 2.5 Million Transactions in First Week

WILMINGTON, DE, Feb 12, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Naoris Protocol, pioneers of Decentralized CyberSecurity, launched their highly anticipated Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet, recording over 2.5 million transactions in the first week. This represents an important step towards a decentralized cybersecurity future, empowering users to secure, earn through a transformative community based security model.Digital infrastructure is increasingly exposed, with centralized cybersecurity systems failing against sophisticated cyber threats and emerging quantum computing risks. Naoris Protocol’s Decentralized Proof of Security (dPoSec) blockchain with fully integrated Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and Decentralized SWARM AI, introduces a new era of trustless, distributed security validation online.The integration and alignment with Post-Quantum Cryptographic Standards, including NIST PQC, NATO NCIA, and ETSI agencies, ensures that Naoris Protocol’s dPoSec blockchain is resistant to both classical and quantum cyber threats.In just one week since launch on January 31, 2025, Naoris Protocol’s Testnet has shattered expectations:524,000 Naoris Wallets installed210,000 Browser Security Nodes deployed17M+ cyber threats mitigated by dPoSec2.6M Post-Quantum transactions processedThe Naoris dPoSec blockchain is standing up to massive volumes of post-quantum transactions, proving its quantum-safe architecture can neutralize future cyber threats today. See a post-quantum key in action: here“Our vision is to create a cybersecurity framework that becomes stronger as it grows,” said David Carvalho, CEO & Founder of Naoris Protocol. “The overwhelming response to our DePIN Testnet underscores the need for decentralized cybersecurity solutions that eliminate single points of failure and build collective resilience across Web2 and Web3.”The continual failure of centralized cybersecurity was perfectly highlighted with the CrowdStrike outage of July 2024, which crippled global systems. Naoris Protocol’s DePIN approach removes such vulnerabilities by distributing security validation across a decentralized mesh of devices, protecting against breaches and malpractice.“Centralized security models are obsolete,” said David Holtzman, Chief Strategy Officer of Naoris Protocol. “Naoris Protocol ensures that security is continuously validated by the network itself, reducing risk and increasing trust in the digital ecosystem.”Following the Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet launch, Naoris Protocol will also introduce:- Expanded Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) implementations across a range of decentralized applications that safeguard against quantum-era threats.- Cross-chain interoperability, enabling PQC security across multiple blockchain infrastructures.- Integration with enterprise cybersecurity solutions, securing critical Web2 & Web3 ecosystems.With the DePIN sector expected to reach $3.5 trillion by 2028, Naoris Protocol is positioning itself as the backbone of security and trust for all Web2 & Web3 infrastructures across cloud computing, data storage, and IoT security.By participating, users not only protect their digital environments but also actively contributing to the creation of a decentralized cybersecurity mesh network, designed to secure the digital world—devices, applications, APIs, and systems—across critical infrastructure, enterprises, governments, and key sectors like finance, defense, healthcare, and Web3. Use cases here.How the DePIN Testnet works:Users can now install the Naoris Wallet and operate a Browser Security Node, an advanced cybersecurity tool that will:- Transforms devices into security validator nodes, providing real-time threat detection and prevention.- Blocks ads, trackers, phishing attempts, malware and insecure connections.- Rewards users for their participation in a DePIN community compute model.- Creates a self-reinforcing ‘Security Hive Mind,’ where all nodes collaborate to mitigate threats.Join the Post-Quantum DePIN Testnet, visit https://naorisprotocol.network/testnet For more information, visit https://www.naorisprotocol.com/ Check out our White PapersNaoris Protocol is available for investment, interviews and technical demonstrations of their groundbreaking Post-Quantum DePIN solution for Web3 & Web2Contacts: Guy Davies / CMO guy@naoris.comLucas Bonnard / Investment lucas.b@naoris.com Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements: Analyzing, Structuring, and Negotiating for Bankable Green Investments in Competitive Markets

SINGAPORE, Feb 4, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Infocus International Group, a global business intelligence provider in strategic information and professional services, presents the Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements online masterclass, scheduled to go live on 4th February & 15th September 2025.In the global marketplace of 2020s, both developed and developing economies urgently need to master the key techniques and models for transforming to renewable generation while strengthening the reliability of new energy markets and systems. These focus on adapting and negotiating the latest models for Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements (RE PPAs) and on rapidly attracting new private investments in renewable energy sources. Unlike past fossil-fuel based Independent Power Project (IPP) models that featured standardized take-or- pay contracts – today’s renewable energy markets demand more innovative incentives to attract RE supply, conform to RE generation availability, ensure power system reliability, as well as more attractive and sustainable mixtures of fuel sources. Government power sector strategies are now struggling to choose among different practical incentives for new private investments in the renewable technologies including solar energy, wind power, bio-mass incineration and mini-hydro investments.This interactive 5-session workshop will provide clear explanations of the new models of Renewable Energy PPA risk allocation, of ensuring project bankability, of allowing RE generators to compete in energy markets and power pools. The practical models for RE investment credit enhancements will be demonstrated through a series of real case examples of RE PPA contracts, renewable project finance transactions, and competitive energy markets. Case Studies will include real examples from Southeast Asia, South Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and North America.A participant from European Bank for Reconstruction and Development remarked, “A well delivered course and a trainer with deep experience. Particularly valuable sessions included the group work negotiating a PPA.”Another participant from Marsh commented, “This was well delivered training - covering many aspects both theory and practical.”Why AttendBest practices from international case studies of successful RE PPAs to avoid common pitfallsDirect the legal design of RE PPAs based on your own company’s risk profile and corporate goalsLead strategies for the design and regulation of new competitive electricity markets to attract renewable private power investmentsDevelop clear incentives for bankable private investments in renewable energy generationEnvironmental, social & governance (ESG) impact mitigation techniques to ensure sustainabilityManage successful renewable power project finance transactionsWant to learn moreSimply email to calvin@infocusinternational.com or call +65 6325 0235 to register your attendance.

TOKYO, Feb 6, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - From 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Jan. 29, Blackbox held its first in-house media event. We were aiming to start off small, so we were pleasantly surprised with the turnout - thank you to all the press and ecosystem representatives who made the time to come by.BLACKBOX EVENTRoundtable With Regional DelegatesIt being our first event, we began by explaining Blackbox's mission statement and the social context that led to our launch. General Manager Taiki Iwasaki talked about the growing support for startups - especially foreign startups - in Japan over the last few years.We are now roughly midway through previous PM Kishida's five-year Startup Development plan, and the landscape is indeed changing. Currently over 700 Startup Visas have been issued, with well over half of them maturing to full-time Business Management Visas.And yet there remains the issue of Japan being a black box to outsiders, especially within the business sphere. Even information exclusively intended for non-Japanese - for example, the application process for a startup visa - is often only available in Japanese, and often fragmented and buried on various regional government websites.This is what Blackbox seeks to address; via Directory pages for each featured city, users can find information about visas, government support programs, local organisations, news, and interviews with local entrepreneurs, all in English.Startup City ProjectWe were also happy to welcome Toru Udagawa, representative of the Cabinet Office's Secretariat of Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy, who gave a presentation on the government's roadmap for further developing Japan's startup ecosystem. The startup phase is of course very exciting, but how will a healthy startup ecosystem mature into an economic engine contributing to Japan's future, and what support structures and tools need to be in place to help it do so?Roundtable With Regional DelegatesThe highlight of the afternoon was a roundtable discussion with representatives from Shibuya, Nagoya, Kobe, Kyoto, and Sapporo - all cities within Special Economic Zones that offer startup visas.It was fascinating to hear how the different cultural and historical backgrounds of the different areas have affected the startup scenes there, as well as their designs for the future. Nagoya, with its long history of heavy industry and manufacturing, is keen to expand into global hubs such as the U.S., Europe, and Singapore, while the port town of Kobe emphasises collaboration within Japan and the immediate area, like Taiwan and Korea. Shibuya's place as a premier world destination sees it making efforts towards attracting foreign capital and VCs, while Hokkaido's rich quality of life acts as a strong force in attracting human resources. Overall, a brilliant insight into the strengths of the different regions.Thank YouBlackbox recently celebrated its second year of operations, and we're constantly growing and devising new ways to demystify the startup scene in Japan.

Doubleview Gold Corp Increases the Dimensions of the Hat Polymetallic Deposit with High-Grade and Extensive Mineralization in Drill Holes H075 to H077

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - February 5, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) (the "Company" or "Doubleview") is pleased to announce further drill hole results from the 2024 drill campaign at its 100% owned Polymetallic Hat Porphyry Project, located in northwestern British Columbia. Long copper-gold-silver-cobalt intercepts in Drill holes H075, H076 and H077 expand the mineralization and potentially will increase the Hat Project's resource in size and grade.2024 Exploration:The 2024 drilling program was designed to confirm the integrity of the resource estimate categories, particularly the indicated resource figures and potentially to allow elevating part or all to a measured resource. Holes were directed to intersect shallow mineralization and to further explore high grade zones. Drilling has confirmed the continuity of mineralization indicating that the deposit exhibits greater consistency than typically expected of a porphyry-style deposit.Important Drill hole Intercepts:DDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq3 (%) excluding Sc2O3Au (g/t)Cu (%)Ag (g/t)Co (g/t)Sc (g/t)H075 90.0525.0435.00.350.150.210.4064.827.2 Including90.0406.7316.70.420.170.250.4874.226.7 Including148.0389.0241.00.500.210.300.5474.426.0 Including196.7253.356.61.000.440.621.1895.723.8 Including218.5240.021.52.060.791.412.62110.223.5H076 12.084.072.00.440.490.050.5747.629.7 Including21.063.042.00.700.820.070.8647.031.0 Including28.857.028.21.011.200.091.1745.628.4 And247.8367.0119.20.400.200.220.1764.229.1H077 89.0497.0408.00.320.130.160.36103.428.0 Including116.0148.032.00.490.170.240.72225.723.5 Including249.0369.0120.00.400.200.200.1898.128.6 Including352.0356.04.00.870.210.250.3390427.2 Detailed High-Grade Results: a) DDH H075:The high-grade intercepts are tabulated below:DDH From (m)To (m)Length (m)CuEq3 (%) excluding Sc2O3Au (g/t)Cu (%)Ag (g/t)Co (g/t)Sc (g/t)H075 196.7253.356.61.000.440.621.1895.723.8 Including206.0240.034.01.530.670.971.80101.023.7 Including218.5240.021.52.060.791.412.62110.223.5 Including227.0236.09.04.551.733.185.76129.425.6H075And329.0351.022.00.990.390.670.9468.419.5 Additionally, drill hole H075 has significant mineralization from 45 metres depth to 341 metres, with 0.40% CuEq.

It is not possible to determine true widths. - Parameters used to calculate Copper Equivalent: Au price (US$/oz): 1900; Ag price (US$/oz): 24; Cu price (US$/lb): 4; Co price (US$/lb): 22. Au recovery: 89.0%; Ag recovery: 68.0%; Cu recovery: 84.0%; Co recovery: 78.0%. * Copper Equivalent Calculation CuEq in % = ([Ag grade in ppm] *24*0.68/31.1035 + [Au grade in ppm] *1900*.89/31.1035 + 0.0001* [Co grade in ppm] *22*0.78*22.0462 + 0.0001* [Cu grade in ppm] *4*0.84*22.0462)/(4*22.0462*0.84). Mr. Farshad Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview, states: "The 2024 drill campaign was successful in testing, confirming and improving our resource model. We are encouraged to see the occurrence of mineralization closer to the surface as well as strong mineralization drill holes which proves continuity and allows for more detailed structural interpretations. This will strongly reflect in the upcoming MRE.V 2.0 that will be part of Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and add value to the Polymetallic Hat Deposit by increasing the metal content. We are continuously working on our exploration model as data becomes available to recognize details of the deposit and its critical and precious metals."The following section illustrates drill holes H075 to H077 intersecting the Hat polymetallic deposit along the strike of major high-grade mineralization.

One half is placed in a stout bag to form the assay sample that is forwarded securely to the independent analytical lab. The remaining half core is stored on site where it is available for further examination and sampling. The assay cores are subject to a Chain of Custody routine as they are shipped from camp to a bonded carrier for delivery to the lab.Core samples are analysed at the North Vancouver facility of ALS Canada Ltd. using their PREP-31, PGM-ICP24, ME-MS61, and ME-ICP06 packages. Each core sample is dried, then crushed to 70% passing a 2mm screen. All material is processed in an automatic Riffle splitter to yield a 250g homogenized, representative sample. This sub-sample is then pulverized to 85% passing a 75-micron screen. All samples are analyzed for Au, Pt, Pd by 50g fire-assay fusion/ICP-ES finish, using PGM-ICP24 package. A separate 0.25g pulp split is analyzed by Four Acid digestion/ICP-MS finish, reporting 48 elements. Over limit elements are analyzed by Ore Grade Four Acid digestion/ICP-ES finish using ME-OG62 assay package. All of Doubleview's core samples are analyzed or assayed at independent ISO 17025 and ISO 9001- certified laboratories.When initial assays are received and accepted by our staff, a certain fraction of the samples will be sent to a second ISO-certified lab for check assay and verification purposes.
