2025年1月16日，泰国春武里 —— 安美德集团（Amata Corporation），一家在泰国证券交易所上市的工业园区企业，今年庆祝创始人维克洛姆·克洛玛迪特（Vikrom Kromadit）先生的创业50周年，并庆祝集团在泰国和越南的业务成功。由于地缘政治不确定性，全球制造企业正在寻求在东南亚建立基地，而泰国和越南正吸引越来越多的投资。Aerial view on Amata City Chonburi, the company’s flagship project in ThailandMr. Vikrom Kromadit, Founder and Chairman of Amata Corporation Public Company Limited安美德的故事可以追溯到20世纪70年代中期。当时，年轻的维克洛姆先生刚从台湾国立大学毕业，开启了他在家乡泰国的创业旅程。经过在进出口贸易和商业咨询领域的尝试后，他进入了工业园区业务领域。如今，安美德在泰国和越南管理着多个全方位服务的工业园区，这些园区内共有超过1500家全球制造企业。安美德的客户包括许多2023年《财富》全球500强企业，例如巴斯夫（BASF）、宝马（BMW）、博世（Bosch）、普利司通（Bridgestone）、百时美施贵宝（Bristol-Myers Squibb）、Cardinal Health、海螺集团、Denso、富士康（Foxconn）、广汽集团（GAC）、出光兴产（Idemitsu）、麦格纳（Magna）、三菱化学和三菱电机、雀巢（Nestlé）、NTT、百事公司（PepsiCo）、浦项制铁（Posco）、索尼（Sony）、丰田通商（Toyota Tsusho）及丰田汽车等。该公司在泰国管理的五大工业园区（包括安美德春武里市工业园，这是公司规模最大的园区）以及其附属公司安美德越南（Amata VN）在越南各主要经济区管理的七个项目（包括工业园区和城镇项目）并非普通的工业园区。这些园区不仅提供充足的水资源和废水处理设施、稳定的电力供应（包括快速增长的太阳能等可再生能源），还配备学校和宜居的住宅区。“在安美德，我们的目标是通过精心的城市规划、先进的公用设施和专业的管理，打造最完善的可持续城市，确保经济和社会的稳定，”即将于今年3月年满72岁的维克洛姆先生表示。“我们精挑细选靠近深水港和机场的优质位置，因为这是工业园区成功的最重要因素。但我们还为园区增加了更多设施，将其打造成宜居的城市，为所有人提供便利和清洁的环境。”安美德集团自1989年以一块6公顷的小地块起步，目前在泰国、越南、老挝和缅甸管理的工业用地总面积已达到约150平方公里。此外，公司还储备了相当规模的土地，以备未来扩展之需。 位于老挝北部乌多姆赛省的项目紧邻中老铁路的那磨站，乘火车至欧洲仅需22天。这座新的智慧生态工业园将以农业产业为重点，利用当地丰富的农业资源进行加工。 “在我们运营的所有国家，安美德始终努力践行其名字的意义，‘安美德’在梵语中意为‘永恒’。我们希望确保我们为这些地区带来的繁荣能够在50年后依然存在，继续改善人们的生活，”维克洛姆先生表示。 集团的50周年庆典定于2025年1月17日举行。关于安美德集团有限公司 安美德集团有限公司（Amata Corporation PCL.）于1997年在泰国证券交易所（SET）上市，专注于泰国及其他国家的工业地产开发及相关业务。根据其2023年度报告，安美德集团通过直接或间接持股运营的子公司和关联公司共有45家，这些公司从事工业园区开发、城市建设、公用事业和服务，或作为控股公司运作。 安美德集团是安美德越南有限公司（Amata VN PCL.）的主要股东，该公司自2015年起也在泰国证券交易所公开上市。集团在越南的所有投资和业务均通过安美德越南开展。 欲了解更多信息，请访问：https://amata.com/如需更多信息，请联系： 安美德集团有限公司 企业传播部 communication@amata.com Copyright 2025 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - January 16, 2025) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "Military") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement"), dated effective January 15, 2025 to acquire further claims surrounding its West Gore Antimony Project ("West Gore" or the "Project") to consolidate the mineralized area located in Nova Scotia, Canada (the "Transaction"). A historically significant antimony producer, West Gore produced 7,000 tonnes of antimony concentrate grading 46% antimony between 1914 to 1917, making a significant contribution to the Allied war effort during World War One until a shipment to England was sunk by a German U-boat and the company then operating went bankrupt.West Gore consists of four exploration licenses comprising 585 hectares located in Hants County, Nova Scotia, Canada, and the newly acquired ground adds 388 hectares under additional exploration licenses to the immediate northwest of the Project, which is thought to comprise the balance of the West Gore antimony-gold mineralized system and includes its historical mine workings. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in the additional claims for $235,000 from ExplORE Resources Ltd. ("ExplORE"), which is spread over two years and ExplORE will receive a 3% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR"). The NSR buydown provisions include $500,000 on the first 1%, and $1,000,000 on an additional 1%, providing Military the opportunity to reduce the overall NSR to 1% at its sole discretion.The historical West Gore mines have a mining history dating back to 1883 and were a significant source of antimony during the First World War, most of which was shipped to England. Total production of gold and antimony between 1883 and 1917, the last recorded year of production, remains unknown. However, between 1914 and 1917, nearly 32,000 tonnes were mined yielding over 7,000 tonnes of antimony concentrate grading 46% antimony. The total amount of gold recovered up to 1917 was estimated to be nearly 6,900 ounces. Aside from minor exploration work in the 1960s, the 1980s, and again over the past few years, the West Gore system remains essentially unexplored in modern times.With the acquisition of the new claims on completion of the Transaction, the Company will gain significant coverage over the mineralized system including all the historical mine workings and known antimony-gold occurrences with additional ground along trend in both directions as exhibited in Map 1 below. This in turn is anticipated to enable the Company to approach this antimony-gold system in its entirety to unlock future value. All relevant data are in the process of being compiled into an integrated digital database, with exploration plans to follow.Map 1: West Gore Project ClaimsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/237404_6e1e7c83d40478cc_001full.jpgAntimony-gold mineralization at West Gore is hosted in graphitic and sulfide-bearing slates of the lower units of the Cambrian-age Halifax Formation that were deformed into a northeast-trending, upright, closed syncline and metamorphosed to greenschist facies during the regional Acadian orogeny. Mineralization occurs as stibnite, native antimony, aurostibnite, and antimony-gold alloys and oxides. Whereas the fold belt strikes northeast-southwest, mineralized structures trend northwest-southeast.The technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by Avrom E.

The two countries are attracting global manufacturing companies seeking to establish a base in Southeast Asia to weather geopolitical uncertainties.Aerial view on Amata City Chonburi, the company’s flagship project in ThailandMr. Vikrom Kromadit, Founder and Chairman of Amata Corporation Public Company LimitedThe story of Amata started in the mid-1970s, when Mr Vikrom, then a young graduate from the Taiwan National University, set up on an entrepreneurial journey in his native country, Thailand. After forays in import-export and business consulting, he entered the industrial estate business. Amata now manages full-service industrial parks in Thailand and Vietnam that are home to over 1,500 factory and commercial outlets.Amata’s clients include many Global Fortune 500 (2023) groups such as BASF, BMW, Bosch, Bridgestone, Brystol-Myers Squibb, Cardinal Health, Conch, Denso, Foxconn, GAC, Idemitsu, Magna, Mitsubishi Chemical and Mitsubishi Electric, Nestlé, PepsiCo, Posco, Sony, Toyota Tsusho, Toyota, etc.The five large industrial parks the company manages in Thailand—including Amata City Chonburi, the company single-largest estate—and the seven projects, including industrial parks and townships, that its affiliate Amata VN manages in all key economic zones of Vietnam, are no ordinary industrial estates. The parks offer ample water supply and wastewater treatment, stable electricity supply, including a fast-rising share of renewable energy, mostly solar, as well as schools and pleasant residential areas.“At Amata, our objective is to build the most perfect possible cities ensuring sustainability and financial stability through careful urban planning, state-of-the-art utilities, and dedicated management,” said Mr Vikrom, who will be 72 in March this year. “We select perfect locations near deep seaports and airports, as that’s the most important success factor for industrial parks. But we also add facilities that go one well beyond that to make our parks liveable cities, ensuring a convenient and clean environment to all.”The total industrial land managed by Amata, which started in 1989 with a six-hectare pocket of land, now represents around 150 sq. km. across the region, including Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar. The company has another equivalent amount of land in reserve, ready for future expansion.The development in Laos, in the country’s northern province of Udomxai, is located next to the Namor station of the Lao-China Railway line. This new smart and eco-industrial park focuses on renewable energy, agro-industries, as well as the automotive and electronics sectors.“In all countries where we operate, Amata’s focus is to live up to its name, which means ‘Eternity’ in Sanskrit. We want to make sure that the prosperity we are bringing to all these locations will still be there to make people’s lives better in another 50 years,” Mr Vikrom said.The group’s 50th anniversary celebration is scheduled 17th January 2025.About Amata Corporation PCL.Amata Corporation PCL., listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) in 1997, focuses on industrial real estate development and related business in Thailand and other countries.

HONG KONG, Jan 16, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Quam Plus International Financial Limited ("Quam Plus Financial" or the “Group”) is honored to congratulate the successful holding of the “2024 Hong Kong Capital Market Forum” at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong. It is our great honor to be the platinum sponsor of this event, and Dr. Kenneth Lam, Co-Chairman and CEO of the Group, has been invited to serve as the Chairman of the Organizing Committee. Together with other members of the senior management team, we joined numerous professionals from the capital markets, government agencies, academia, and the financial industry to explore ways to further enhance the economic momentum of Hong Kong.The forum was organized by The Chamber of Hong Kong Listed Companies, The Hong Kong Institute of Directors, and the Hong Kong Association of Registered Public Interest Entity Auditors Limited, with strong support from institutions such as the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Securities and Futures Commission and the Accounting and Financial Reporting Council.This year's forum is themed "How to Enhance Economic Vitality and Strengthen Competitiveness." The conference invited Mr. Qi Bin, Deputy Director of the Central Government's Liaison Office in Hong Kong Administrative Region, and Mr. Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR, as guest speakers.Mr. Qi stated, "Last year, with strong support from the central government and the joint efforts of various sectors in Hong Kong, the economy showed steady improvement. The central government intensified macroeconomic regulation and introduced a series of incremental policies, which also helped reverse the decline in the Hong Kong stock market last year."Mr. Paul Chan pointed out, "This week, the People's Bank of China and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced several measures to deepen financial cooperation, greatly enhancing Hong Kong's ability to connect with mainland and overseas capital markets." He also noted, "As long as Hong Kong continues to embrace reform, dare to innovate, seize opportunities, and effectively play the roles of a super connector and a super value creator, it can inject new momentum into the financial development of Hong Kong and contribute even more to the country's goal of becoming a financial powerhouse."Dr. Kenneth Lam delivered the opening speech at the forum, stating “Market progress does not solely rely on the efforts of the government and regulatory bodies. As market participants, we also bear responsibility. This is one of the important reasons we are holding this forum today. We hope to gather the wisest perspectives and richest experiences from the industry to jointly explore the right development path for Hong Kong, helping us rise and become stronger amidst challenges.”As an important bridge connecting mainland China with international markets, Hong Kong has long leveraged its unique position to become a global hub for capital flows. However, as the global economic landscape continues to reshape, Hong Kong's capital market is at a critical moment filled with challenges and opportunities. Against this backdrop, this year's forum aimed to explore how to further stimulate market vitality in a complex environment. Political and business leaders engaged in various sessions, including keynote speeches and discussions, to vigorously debate how to consolidate Hong Kong's core competitive advantages as an international financial center and deepen its important role in global and national development.About Quam Plus International Financial LimitedQuam Plus International Financial Limited (the “Company”, Stock Code: 00952.HK) is a Hong Kong based financial services group which is listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.
