Hua Medicine Announces 2025 Interim Results

SHANGHAI, Aug 28, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Hua Medicine (the “Company”, HKEx: 2552) announced the unaudited consolidated results of the Company and its subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (the “Reporting Period”), as well as the Company's business progress during the first half of the year and future outlook. During the Reporting Period, the commercialization of the Company's core product, HuaTangNing (dorzagliatin tablets), accelerated. The Company’s independent operational capabilities improved significantly. R&D progress advanced smoothly and the Company’s financial performance achieved breakthrough growth, laying a solid foundation for long-term sustainable development.Sales of HuaTangNing increased by 108% year-on-year, with net sales increasing by 112% year-on-year. Reimbursement coverage continued to expand, with a significant increase in prescription volumes across Tier 2 and Tier 3 hospitals, as our comprehensive commercialization strategy achieved significant results.Following the termination of the exclusive promotion service agreement with Bayer, the Company recognized a one-time release of previously deferred income of RMB 1,243.5 million, achieving a profit of RMB 1,183.9 million for the first half of the year. This is the Company's first profit during the performance period.A real-world study (BLOOM) involving 80 centers and 2,000 patients with Type 2 diabetes conducted in China further demonstrated the broad applicability and safety of dorzagliatin.A registration application has been submitted in Hong Kong for Dorzagliatin 75mg (brand name: MYHOMSIS®), aiming to extend its presence across Greater China and Southeast Asia.Gross profit margin improved significantly, as production scale and operational efficiency continued to be optimized.“The first half of 2025 was a critical stage in Hua Medicine’s transformation and development. Following the full takeover of the commercialization of HuaTangNing, the Company achieved double-digit growth in sales and revenue through its independently established sales team, thereby validating the effectiveness of the new business model. We have also submitted a new drug application in Hong Kong, China, laying the foundation for dorzagliatin to expand from China to Southeast Asia and the global market,” said Dr. Li Chen, founder and CEO of Hua Medicin “Dorzagliatin has continued to demonstrate broad therapeutic potential in real-world studies, and new evidence has been found in basic research regarding diabetes remission, cognitive improvement, lipid improvement, and muscle gain, further consolidating Hua Medicine’s global leadership in GKA research and development and treatment. In the future, Hua Medicine will continue to focus on diabetes and the entire field of metabolic diseases, driving innovation through research and development and market expansion to bring the benefits of China's original innovative drugs to more patients worldwide.” Business Highlights and Operational ProgressCommercialization transformation achieved remarkable results, with doubling of sales and profits.Effective from January 1, 2025, the Company terminated its exclusive promotion service agreement with Bayer and fully took over the commercialization of HuaTangNing (å''å ‚å®'®) in China. During the Reporting Period, with unit prices remaining consistent with the same period in 2024, sales of HuaTangNing reached 1,764,000 packs, a year-on-year increase of 108%. Net sales reached RMB217.4 million, a year-on-year increase of 112%. Leveraging strong commercial execution and continuously improving operational efficiency, the Company is moving toward profitability. Hua Medicine has successfully transitioned to a fully independent commercialization phase, confirming growing market demand and the efficient execution capabilities of its independent sales team.Sales of HuaTangNing continued to benefit from its inclusion in China’s National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL), which took effect in January 2024. Reimbursement coverage under the NRDL has significantly increased accessibility, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 hospitals, and played a critical role in accelerating patient adoption.Due to expanded production scale and improved cost efficiency, the Company's gross profit margin increased to 54.2%, higher than 46.5% in the same period last year.With sales revenue growing 112% year-on-year, the Company's sales expenses during the Reporting Period were RMB64.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, growing only 5% compared to the same period last year. The composition of our selling expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 changed significantly from the same period in 2024 due to the Company incurring selling expenses directly as a result of assuming sole commercialization responsibilities for HuaTangNing in China, while no longer owing promotion expenses to the former commercialization partner. These figures also reflect a significant positive trend towards profitability and demonstrate our business strategy of optimizing profitability by controlling commercialization sales expenses of HuaTangNing and maximizing production efficiency, where our selling expenses in the first half of 2025 represent approximately 29.5% of total revenue whereas in the first half of 2024, our selling expenses represented approximately 59.5% of total revenue. After terminating the exclusive promotion service agreement with Bayer, the Company recognized a one-time release of previously deferred income of RMB1,243.5 million and transitioned to self-driven growth. Hua Medicine achieved a pre-tax profit of RMB 1,183.9 million for the first half of the year, marking a key milestone of Hua Medicine towards sustainable profitability.As of June 30, 2025, the cash balance was RMB1,022.8 million, laying a solid foundation for the Company's future R&D and commercialization initiatives.Clinical research continues to deepen, with new evidence supporting treatment potentialHua Medicine is conducting multiple post-marketing studies to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of dorzagliatin across diverse patient populations, both in monotherapy as well as in combination with other popular approved anti-diabetic drugs, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists, insulin, DPP-IV inhibitors and SGLT-2 inhibitors. These studies are generating new clinical insights into glucose control, cognitive outcomes, and potential for diabetes remission.A real-world study (BLOOM) is being conducted in 2,000 patients with Type 2 diabetes across 80 centers in China. BLOOM has already completed one-year follow-up in over 1,000 participants. In the real-world setting, BLOOM further demonstrates the broad applicability and safety of dorzagliatin. Patients receiving dorzagliatin in routine clinical practice present with a heterogeneous mix of comorbidities, including various cardiovascular and renal disorders and are managed with multiple concomitant medications. In addition to metformin, more than 60% of patients concurrently used SGLT-2 inhibitors, insulin, GLP-1 receptor agonists, or DPP-IV inhibitors and other anti-diabetic drugs with dorzagliatin. In monotherapy or in combination with the popular above-mentioned anti-diabetic drugs, dorzagliatin was generally well tolerated, and its safety profile remained consistent with previously established data.Hua Medicine presented new data at the 2025 American Diabetes Association (ADA) conference, reinforcing dorzagliatin’s potential as a disease-modifying therapy. Insights into the novel mechanism of action (MOA) of dorzagliatin as a therapeutic GKA were published in Diabetes.Research and Development Pipeline and Future OutlookThe company filed its application for registration of dorzagliatin 75mg in Hong Kong as MYHOMSIS®, aiming to extend its presence across Greater China and southeast Asia.We are continuing expansion on our product pipeline through development of fixed dose combination of metformin and dorzagliatin for patients who have failed to control blood glucose levels while using high dose metformin (daily dose>1500 mg). In the loose dose combination study-DAWN Trial, dorzagliatin add-on to metformin provided HbA1c reduction of greater than 1% and post meal glucose reduction of greater than 5 mmol/L. These desirable glycemic control levels coupled with a very safe 0.8% hypoglycemic rate would suggest strong potential demand for a branded oral anti-diabetic medication using a convenient fixed dose combination of dorzagliatin and metformin. The Pre-IND submission has been achieved in August 2025, and we are expected to initiate the bioequivalence study in early 2026.We are also advancing the combination of dorzagliatin with GLP-1RA, SGLT-2 inhibitors, insulin and DPP-IV inhibitors through combined effects in collecting real world evidence and proof of concept studies in animal models. The synergy between dorzagliatin with these agents has the potential to expand our indications into other diseases in metabolic disorders, such as obesity and MASH.We continue to enhance our collaborations with leading international research institutions. A Phase I investigator-initiated trial supported by the Group and conducted at the University of Pennsylvania – designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dorzagliatin in patients with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) – has received clearance from the U.S. FDA.We will continue our engagement in diabetes prevention, opportunities in metabolic disorder related neurodegeneration disease and eventually find a new way to increase healthy life span and longevity in humans.We continue to invest in digital technology platforms to create synergies across functions and enhance branding opportunities using AI technology.As illustrated in our product pipeline chart, we will continue to advance our R&D efforts for both dorzagliatin and our 2nd generation GKA on our own as well as in collaboration with academic and strategic partners. We are working on the registration of dorzagliatin in Hong Kong and continue to seek partnerships in Southeast Asia and Belt and Road nations. In addition, we will continue our business development efforts on our 2nd generation GKA for the global markets based on the initial success of the Phase 1 single-ascending dose study in the United States and the initiation of our Phase 1 multiple ascending dose study planned for late 2025 or early 2026.Financial SummaryAs of June 30, 2025- Bank balances and cash amounted to approximately RMB 1,022.8 million.- Total revenue was approximately RMB217.4 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 112%.

DPC Dash-Domino’s Pizza China Delivers Strong 2025 First-Half Performance

HONG KONG, Aug 29, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As Western fast food gains increasing acceptance among local consumers, China's Western quick-service restaurant (QSR) market continues its rapid expansion.DPC Dash Ltd - Domino’s Pizza China (1405.HK), Domino's Pizza's exclusive master franchisee in the China Mainland, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, and the Macau Special Administrative Region of China, recently reported its first-half 2025 results. The company has distinguished itself in China's intensely competitive Western fast-food landscape, setting a new benchmark for strong performance while maintaining operational efficiency and strengthening market competitiveness.Strong Financial Performance Reflects Multiple Competitive AdvantagesAccording to Frost & Sullivan, DPC Dash became China's second-largest pizza brand by 2024 sales revenue. The company has not rested on its laurels, with 2025 first-half results demonstrating exceptional performance across multiple metrics, achieving historical highs while sustaining growth momentum. Revenue has maintained double-digit growth for consecutive years, reaching RMB2.59 billion, up 27.0% year-over-year. After achieving its first full-year positive reported and adjusted net profit in 2024, the company posted dramatic net profit growth of 504.4% in the first half of 2025 to RMB65.92 million, while adjusted net profit surged 79.6% to RMB91.42 million. The simultaneous achievement of revenue growth and profit expansion amid market volatility underscores the company's growth resilience.DPC Dash has rapidly expanded its store network in recent years. Since the current management team began its tenure in the third quarter of 2017, the company has effectively implemented its "go-deeper, go-broader" store expansion strategy, growing from approximately 100 stores to 1,198 stores across 48 mainland Chinese cities. Since entering the Central and Western China market in December 2022, the company has established 100 stores within just two and a half years. DPC Dash’s expansion strategy emphasizes quality over speed. The company has established rigorous site evaluation standards to ensure each new location meets the fundamentals required for long-term profitability, a disciplined approach that has maintained its store closure rate well below industry benchmarks. Store quality is reflected not merely in quantity but in sales performance that leads the global Domino's system. New market entries have been enthusiastically received by local consumers, with long queues frequently observed at newly opened Domino’s Pizza stores. The first store in Shenyang broke the previous annual sales record of over RMB 31 million set by the Xiamen SM Phase III store within just 198 days of operation. In August 2025, the first Handan store shattered global Domino's first-day sales records with over RMB540,000 in sales and more than 6,000 orders. DPC Dash currently occupies 48 of the top 50 positions for first 30-day sales among the Domino's network of over 21,500 stores worldwide. DPC Dash has demonstrated remarkable business resilience. Even under the twin pressures of new store openings and market volatility, the company achieved positive same-store sales growth (SSSG), when adjusting for the impact of high-performing stores entering their SSSG cycles, a testament to its superior operational discipline.The SIAL "2025 Pizza New Innovation White Paper" identifies surging demand for delivery as a primary driver of robust growth in China's pizza market. In 2022, China's online pizza market share surpassed in-store sales for the first time, reaching 58.1%, with online market share expected to continue rising in the coming years. DPC Dash has been providing reliable delivery services for years, offering a "30-minute delivery guarantee with free pizza vouchers for late deliveries” service commitment, achieving 94% overall on-time delivery rates during the first half of 2025, which establishes a foundation for future online market expansion.Multi-Pronged Strengths in Product and Operations Deepen Consumer ExperienceLeveraging Domino's global brand assets and local supply chain management capabilities, DPC Dash has progressively achieved operational efficiency while providing consumers with delicious pizza at value and diverse dining experiences.In the QSR industry, taste represents one of the primary competitive advantages. DPC Dash maintains classic, bestselling Domino’s products on its menu while preserving pricing consistency over the years, ensuring consumers receive familiar tastes and experiences even after an extended period since their last visit, creating strong brand familiarity and consumer trust. Meanwhile, DPC Dash continuously embraces new trends and product innovation, actively exploring flavor and ingredient combinations while introducing crust diversification. In the first half of 2025, the company further enriched its popular durian pizza and volcano crust offerings, introducing Dubai Chocolate Musang King Durian Pizza and Cocoa Volcano Crust, among others, while adding new combinations including Tuscany-Inspired Cheese Salmon Pizza and Stuffed Crust (Cocoa & Cheese). DPC Dash offers industry-leading crust selections, paired with a highly customizable WeChat Mini-Program ordering system that enables over 400 combinations. This not only delivers customers the joy of culinary exploration but also precisely addresses personal taste preferences, demonstrating deep category expertise and nuanced consumer insights.Affordable Western fast-food brands are now accelerating market penetration, reaching more lower-tier market consumption scenarios. The SIAL "2025 Pizza New Innovation White Paper" projects that an estimated 15,000 new stores will be expected to open in China’s lower-tier markets between 2025 and 2027. Building on product diversification, DPC Dash’s pricing strategy maintains competitive advantages. The menu remains streamlined and maintains value, classic, and indulgent categories to serve different customer segments. For sales channels, DPC Dash leverages third-party delivery platforms for limited-time and selective sales offerings to preserve its pricing advantage. The company also builds the membership ecosystem through multiple channels, offering free pizzas and snacks through mini-games and providing substantial value through up to 10% points redemption rates, while incorporating gamification elements like points lotteries and membership rewards to enhance member engagement.To better reach younger consumers, DPC Dash has actively enhanced its promotional approach. Brand marketing has diversified toward cross-industry collaborations and social media platform branding. DPC Dash has cultivated strategic IP collaborations with Tencent's video game Ash Echoes and Hello Kitty last year and NetEase's video game Egg Party and Snoopy this year, covering gaming and cultural IP beloved by young consumers, speaking directly to Gen Z culture and values, strengthening emotional connections and establishing cultural resonance beyond transactions. DPC Dash also launched on Douyin and other short video and live streaming platforms last year, expanding its reach through social media, strengthening and reinforcing its youthful, digital brand image.In the first half of 2025, DPC Dash’s loyalty program accumulated 30.1 million members, representing 55.2% year-over-year growth as one of the most impressive strategic achievements of the half-year performance. Revenue contributed by loyalty members as a percentage of total revenue increased from 63.6% to 66%, with both membership scale and stickiness rising, expanding the user base while deepening engagement and loyalty. The consumer base has become more diverse, bringing delicious pizza to more consumers.Long-term Potential Through Balanced GrowthDPC Dash’s first-half performance demonstrates a rare balance of healthy growth and profitability, with the brand continuing to build sustainable competitive advantages that establish a solid foundation for maintaining growth and capturing market share even amidst an ever-changing consumption environment.Through delicious, high-value offerings, efficient deliveries, and trusted brand strength alongside solid operational foundations, DPC Dash has distinguished itself in the rapidly expanding Western QSR sector.While scaling operations continuously, the company has maintained an unwavering focus on store-level model health and operational efficiency, underpinning steady improvements in overall profitability metrics. This development model, which combines explosive growth with resilience, positions DPC Dash as a compelling long-term growth story in the Western QSR industry, demonstrating substantial potential to weather cycles and create sustained value.

Israel mengonfirmasi serangan terhadap Houthi di Yaman, menandai yang kedua kalinya minggu ini Berita

Israel mengonfirmasi serangan terhadap Houthi di Yaman, menandai yang kedua kalinya minggu ini

(SeaPRwire) - pada Kamis bahwa mereka melancarkan serangan terhadap target Houthi di ibu kota Yaman, Sanaa, menandai serangan kedua dalam kurang dari seminggu.Israel Defense Forces (IDF) mengatakan bahwa Houthi beroperasi untuk merugikan Israel dan sekutunya. IDF juga menyalahkan Houthi karena "merusak stabilitas regional dan mengganggu kebebasan navigasi global." "Seperti yang kami peringatkan: 'Setelah wabah kegelapan datanglah wabah kematian.' Siapa pun yang mengangkat tangan melawan Israel, tangan mereka akan dipotong," kata Menteri Pertahanan Israel Israel Katz setelah serangan hari Kamis.Serangan hari Kamis, yang dilancarkan setelah Israel mencegat dua drone dari Yaman, terjadi selama pidato pemimpin Houthi Abdul-Malik Badreddin al-Houthi. Selain itu, media Israel melaporkan bahwa pidato tersebut berlangsung tanpa gangguan.Pada Minggu, Israel menyerang ibu kota Yaman sebagai tanggapan atas rudal yang ditembakkan oleh Houthi. Serangan itu menewaskan enam orang dan melukai 86 lainnya, yang mengutip juru bicara Houthi Health Ministry.Konflik antara Israel dan Houthi telah berlangsung selama hampir dua tahun. Pasukan teror yang didukung Iran tersebut mengancam akan menyerang Israel hanya beberapa hari setelah pembantaian Hamas pada 7 Oktober. Dalam beberapa minggu setelah serangan Hamas, Houthi menembakkan rudal dan drone ke Israel yang dicegat oleh U.S. forces di atas U.S.S. Carney.Sejak saat itu, Israel telah menanggapi rudal dari Houthi dengan menyerang daerah-daerah yang dikendalikan oleh organisasi teror tersebut di Yaman, termasuk pelabuhan Hodeidah.Houthi belum menghentikan serangan terhadap Israel untuk mendukung Palestina di Gaza. Pada 22 Agustus, Reuters melaporkan bahwa Houthi mengatakan mereka telah menembakkan rudal balistik ke Israel sebagai bentuk solidaritas dengan Gaza.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Inggris, Prancis, Jerman Picu Sanksi PBB terhadap Iran atas Pelanggaran Program Nuklir ‘Signifikan’

(SeaPRwire) - Trio kekuatan Eropa, Inggris, Prancis, dan Jerman (E3), pada hari Kamis memulai proses untuk memberlakukan kembali sanksi menyeluruh terhadap Iran atas "pelanggaran signifikan" terhadap perjanjian nuklir internasional. Pukul 9 pagi EST, mereka mengajukan surat kepada presiden Dewan Keamanan Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa, Duta Besar Panama Eloy Alfaro de Alba, memberitahukannya tentang niat mereka untuk memicu mekanisme sanksi snapback yang tertuang dalam kesepakatan nuklir 2015 yang dikenal sebagai Rencana Aksi Komprehensif Bersama (JCPOA), Digital mengonfirmasi sebelum tindakan pada hari Kamis. "Kami, para menteri luar negeri Prancis, Jerman, dan Britania Raya, memiliki tujuan mendasar agar Iran tidak akan pernah mencari, memperoleh, atau mengembangkan senjata nuklir," demikian bunyi surat yang diperoleh Digital. "Kami akan terus berupaya untuk menyelesaikan masalah pelanggaran signifikan Iran secara diplomatik." Surat itu menyimpulkan dengan mencatat bahwa sanksi "akan dipulihkan" kecuali Dewan Keamanan PBB memutuskan sebaliknya secara bulat. Menteri Luar Negeri Marco Rubio menyambut baik langkah tersebut sebagai "patut disambut" dan mengatakan, "Snapback tidak bertentangan dengan kesiapan tulus kami untuk berdiplomasi, melainkan hanya meningkatkannya." "Saya mendesak para pemimpin Iran untuk mengambil langkah-langkah segera yang diperlukan guna memastikan bahwa negara mereka tidak akan pernah mendapatkan senjata nuklir; untuk menempuh jalan perdamaian; dan, sebagai kelanjutannya, memajukan kemakmuran bagi rakyat Iran," tambahnya. Tindakan ini diambil setelah seruan dari para pemimpin Eropa, dan desakan bertahun-tahun dari AS sejak pemerintahan Trump pertama pada tahun 2018, yang menandakan bahwa Teheran melanggar perjanjian nuklir yang dibuat di bawah JCPOA – meskipun catatan pelanggaran Iran tidak dimulai hingga tahun 2019, berdasarkan temuan oleh pengawas nuklir internasional. Menurut seorang pejabat Inggris pada hari Kamis, keputusan untuk memberlakukan sanksi snapback, yang diperkirakan akan memiliki konsekuensi parah bagi ekonomi Iran yang sudah melemah, bukanlah keputusan yang dibuat "dengan mudah." Pejabat itu mengonfirmasi bahwa telah terjadi "diplomasi yang sangat intens" selama "12 bulan, 6 bulan, 6 minggu" terakhir yang pada akhirnya mengarah pada keputusan ini – termasuk tiga faktor utama seperti [...], pengoperasian sentrifugal canggih, dan penolakannya untuk mematuhi peraturan inspeksi internasional – semua yang diatur di bawah JCPOA. Pejabat itu mengonfirmasi bahwa pada bulan Mei, Iran ditemukan memiliki sekitar 20.000 pon uranium yang diperkaya, termasuk 900 pon uranium yang sangat diperkaya (HEU) tingkat mendekati senjata – yang 45 kali lebih tinggi dari batas JCPOA yaitu di bawah 660 pon uranium yang diperkaya. "Iran adalah satu-satunya negara non-senjata nuklir yang memproduksi uranium yang sangat diperkaya," kata pejabat itu, menambahkan bahwa persediaan tersebut masih belum terhitung. Tindakan hari Kamis berarti bahwa pada akhir periode 30 hari, semua 15 anggota Dewan Keamanan, termasuk [...], dapat terikat secara hukum untuk memberlakukan kembali sanksi terhadap Iran. Namun, berbicara kepada wartawan di Washington, D.C., pada hari Rabu, kepala pengawas nuklir PBB, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), mengatakan masih ada "waktu" bagi Iran untuk mencegah sanksi berlaku. "Iran harus mematuhi," kata Direktur Jenderal IAEA Rafael Grossi. "Saya pikir ada kemungkinan. Saya tidak optimis secara naif, tetapi pada saat yang sama, tidak ada alasan mengapa kita tidak seharusnya mendapatkan hasil yang baik." E3 dan AS telah memperjelas bahwa ada langkah-langkah spesifik yang perlu diambil Teheran untuk menghindari sanksi snapback, termasuk memberikan IAEA akses penuh ke semua [...], negosiasi langsung dengan Washington, dan menjelaskan keberadaan sekitar 900 pon uranium yang sangat diperkaya (HEU). Namun Grossi juga mencatat bahwa akan "hampir tidak mungkin" bagi Iran untuk mencapai titik kepatuhan dengan JCPOA karena terlalu banyak kemajuan teknis. Pertanyaan tentang lokasi HEU, yang diperkirakan cukup untuk membuat 10 hulu ledak nuklir, muncul setelah AS melancarkan serangan langsung terhadap program nuklir Iran pada bulan Juni. Laporan menunjukkan bahwa pada hari-hari menjelang serangan, Iran mungkin telah memindahkan dan menyembunyikan sebagian uraniumnya berdasarkan citra satelit yang menunjukkan konvoi meninggalkan Fordow dan Isfahan [...]. Namun pada hari Rabu, Grossi membantah kekhawatiran ini dan mengatakan IAEA tidak memiliki bukti bahwa uranium telah dipindahkan ke lokasi rahasia. Meskipun persediaan HEU masih belum secara resmi dipertanggungjawabkan karena IAEA belum diberikan akses ke [...], Grossi mengatakan dia memperkirakan akses itu akan segera datang karena inspektur pada hari Rabu mengunjungi pembangkit listrik tenaga nuklir Bushehr setelah kembali diberikan akses di Iran. Ketika ditanya wartawan apakah Iran mengambil tindakan segera untuk mulai memenuhi tuntutan E3 dan menghindari sanksi, Grossi berkata, "secara terang-terangan... tidak." "Pekerjaan kami belum dimulai. Kami belum berada di tempat yang saya inginkan – saya tidak akan menyembunyikan ini," katanya. "Namun pada saat yang sama, saya seorang diplomat, saya selalu bekerja menuju perdamaian." Iran telah [...] jika sanksi diterapkan, meskipun bagaimana hal itu akan dilakukan masih belum jelas. Teheran dalam beberapa tahun terakhir telah memperkuat hubungan dengan sekutu kuat seperti Rusia dan Tiongkok, yang telah menolak seruan untuk sanksi snapback. Namun meskipun mereka duduk di Dewan Keamanan PBB dengan hak veto, mereka tidak akan dapat secara sepihak menghentikan sanksi untuk diberlakukan. Dalam langkah yang belum pernah terjadi sebelumnya pada tahun 2015, mekanisme sanksi ditulis dengan cara yang membalikkan prosedur dewan standar, yang secara tradisional akan membutuhkan kelima anggota tetap untuk menyetujui tindakan apa pun, yang berarti hanya satu veto dapat memblokir tindakan tersebut. Dalam kasus sanksi snapback terhadap Iran, setiap anggota tetap, termasuk AS, Prancis, Inggris, Tiongkok, dan Rusia, harus memveto desakan untuk memberlakukan kembali sanksi. Ini berarti, terlepas dari oposisi dari Rusia dan Tiongkok, mereka tidak dapat memblokir sanksi, seperti yang semakin sering mereka lakukan dalam tindakan Dewan Keamanan lainnya dalam beberapa tahun terakhir – yang menyebabkan apa yang beberapa orang sebut sebagai keadaan lumpuh di badan tertinggi PBB.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Apakah Trump mempertimbangkan strategi berani di Afrika untuk melawan Tiongkok, Rusia, dan teroris Islam? Berita

Apakah Trump mempertimbangkan strategi berani di Afrika untuk melawan Tiongkok, Rusia, dan teroris Islam?

(SeaPRwire) - Presiden dilaporkan sedang mengerjakan sebuah langkah yang akan memberikan pijakan militer dan ekonomi baru bagi A.S. di Afrika, melawan Tiongkok dan Rusia, serta memberikan pukulan terhadap teroris Islam di wilayah tersebut. Dan kini seorang senator terkemuka telah memberitahu Digital bahwa tujuan ini dapat terwujud dengan mengakui Somaliland yang memisahkan diri sebagai negara merdeka.Somaliland, di pantai selatan Teluk Aden, memisahkan diri dari Somalia pada tahun 1991. Pemerintahnya dikatakan menawarkan pangkalan udara dan laut baru kepada A.S. dekat dengan pintu masuk Laut Merah, dan tepat di seberang Yaman serta Houthi, jika A.S. secara resmi mengakuinya. Tiga puluh persen dari lalu lintas kapal kontainer dunia dilaporkan melewati perairannya dalam perjalanan menuju atau dari Terusan Suez.Di Oval Office pada 8 Agustus, Trump mengatakan kepada wartawan, "Kami sedang menyelidiki hal itu sekarang," ketika ditanya tentang pengakuan Somaliland dan kemungkinan pemukiman kembali warga Gaza di sana, menambahkan, "Kami sedang mengerjakannya sekarang, Somaliland."Ketua Subkomite Hubungan Luar Negeri Senat untuk Afrika, , mengatakan kepada Digital, "Ada peluang yang sangat nyata bahwa Presiden Trump akan mengakui Somaliland selama masa pemerintahannya."Cruz menambahkan, "Presiden Trump membawa era baru kejelasan dalam keamanan nasional Amerika, setelah empat tahun pemerintahan Biden memberi penghargaan kepada musuh-musuh kita dan menghukum sekutu kita, dan mengakui Somaliland harus menjadi bagian dari era baru ini."Somaliland telah menjadi sekutu yang dapat diandalkan bagi Amerika Serikat, mengintegrasikan dirinya dengan kami dan sekutu kami secara global, dan berkomitmen untuk membantu kami melawan upaya Tiongkok untuk merusak keamanan dan kemakmuran rakyat Amerika," katanya.Gedung Putih tidak menanggapi permintaan komentar dari Digital.Negara tetangga Somalia telah memerangi pejuang fundamentalis Islam selama beberapa dekade. Komando Afrika A.S. (U.S. Africa Command) telah meningkatkan jumlah serangan udara terhadap ISIS dan teroris di bawah pemerintahan saat ini.Namun Somaliland, yang 99% Muslim, diduga telah menghilangkan radikalisme dan telah menyelaraskan diri dengan A.S. dan Israel, menyebabkan Cruz mengatakan kepada Digital, "Mereka adalah negara Muslim, di bagian Afrika yang sangat berbahaya, menunjukkan keberanian nyata. Saya akan terus mendorong untuk memperdalam kemitraan A.S.-Somaliland, termasuk melalui Subkomite Afrika di Senat, dan saya berharap rekan-rekan saya di kedua belah pihak akan menerima untuk melakukannya."Awal bulan ini, Cruz menulis surat kepada Presiden Trump tentang Somaliland, menyatakan, "ini memerlukan status sebagai sebuah negara. Saya mendesak Anda untuk memberinya pengakuan itu."Presiden Somaliland, Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi, optimis, mengatakan kepada The British Guardian newspaper pada 30 Mei, "Pengakuan sudah di depan mata." Dia menambahkan, "Ini hanya masalah waktu. Bukan 'apakah', tetapi 'kapan'."Pelabuhan Somaliland di Berbera adalah permata dalam setiap kesepakatan Washington. Analis mengatakan posisinya sangat strategis sehingga baik Rusia maupun Tiongkok telah mencoba untuk memperolehnya. Tepat di sebelahnya terdapat salah satu dari lima landasan pacu terpanjang di Afrika, menawarkan kepada A.S. kemungkinan pangkalan laut dan udara yang dapat menyerang pemberontak Houthi di utara dan teroris Al Shabaab di timur. Dalam suratnya kepada Gedung Putih, Cruz menulis, "Somaliland telah muncul sebagai mitra keamanan dan diplomatik yang penting bagi Amerika Serikat, membantu Amerika memajukan kepentingan keamanan nasional kita di Tanduk Afrika dan sekitarnya. Lokasinya strategis di sepanjang Teluk Aden, menempatkannya dekat dengan salah satu koridor maritim tersibuk di dunia. Ia memiliki angkatan bersenjata yang cakap dan berkontribusi pada operasi kontra-terorisme dan anti-pembajakan regional. Ia telah mengusulkan untuk menjadi tuan rumah kehadiran militer A.S. dekat Laut Merah di sepanjang Teluk Aden."Pangkalan militer terbesar A.S. di berada tepat di pesisir Djibouti. Namun ada masalah keamanan dan pengawasan di pangkalan A.S. Camp Lemonnier di mana Tiongkok dan negara-negara lain telah membuka pangkalan dan stasiun pemantauan mereka sendiri di dekatnya.Somaliland juga menawarkan Gedung Putih akses ke mineral langka yang penting untuk industri teknologi tinggi, seperti litium dan silikon kuarsa.A.S. telah menggambarkan Somalia, dengan sejumlah besar agen yang terkait dengan ISIS dan al-Qaida, sebagai sarang aman teroris. Kini, meningkatnya kehadiran Tiongkok dan pasukan militer dari negara-negara seperti Turki dilaporkan membuat beberapa pihak di Washington semakin tidak senang dengan kebijakan "satu Somalia" mereka, di mana Somaliland terus diakui hanya sebagai bagian dari Somalia. Untuk saat ini, seorang juru bicara mengatakan kepada Digital posisi resmi: "Amerika Serikat mengakui kedaulatan dan integritas teritorial Republik Federal Somalia, yang mencakup wilayah Somaliland. Departemen Luar Negeri tidak dalam diskusi aktif dengan perwakilan Somaliland tentang kesepakatan untuk mengakui Somaliland sebagai sebuah negara."Namun, menteri luar negeri Somaliland bekerja di lobi-lobi Washington dan politisi pada bulan April, dan beberapa sumber Afrika, termasuk outlet berita Horn Observer yang berpengaruh, telah melaporkan bahwa Presiden Abdullahi diperkirakan akan datang ke D.C. "segera". Para pejabat A.S., termasuk duta besar A.S. untuk Somalia, Richard Riley, dikatakan telah mengunjungi Somaliland untuk bertemu dengan presiden setidaknya tiga kali tahun ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Serangan Rusia Tewaskan 10 Orang, Lukai 38 Lainnya di Kyiv, Kata Pejabat Ukraina

(SeaPRwire) - Rusia melancarkan serangan besar-besaran di Kyiv semalam, menewaskan 10 orang, melukai setidaknya 38 lainnya, dan merusak bangunan, kata para pejabat Ukraina pada Kamis.Presiden Ukraina mengatakan seorang anak tewas dalam serangan drone dan rudal tersebut."Saat ini di Kyiv, petugas tanggap darurat sedang membersihkan puing-puing bangunan tempat tinggal biasa setelah serangan Rusia," kata Zelenskyy di X."Rusia memilih balistik daripada meja perundingan. Rusia memilih untuk terus membunuh daripada mengakhiri perang. Dan ini berarti Rusia masih tidak takut akan konsekuensinya. Rusia masih memanfaatkan fakta bahwa setidaknya sebagian dunia menutup mata terhadap anak-anak yang terbunuh dan mencari alasan untuk Putin," lanjutnya.Zelenskyy menambahkan bahwa "sudah pasti waktunya untuk sanksi baru yang keras terhadap Rusia atas semua yang dilakukannya.""Semua tenggat waktu telah dilanggar, lusinan kesempatan untuk diplomasi dihancurkan. Rusia harus merasa bertanggung jawab atas setiap serangan, atas setiap hari perang ini. Kenangan abadi bagi semua korban Rusia," katanya.Pihak tersebut mengatakan pihaknya menembak jatuh 563 dari 598 drone dan 26 dari 31 rudal yang diluncurkan oleh Rusia dalam serangan di seluruh negeri. Dikatakan 13 lokasi terkena serangan dan puing-puing jatuh di 26 lokasi."Sayangnya, gaya Rusia tipikal dalam serangan mereka," tulis Tymur Tkachenko, kepala administrasi militer Kyiv, di Telegram."Serangan gabungan, dari berbagai arah. Dan sistematis, menargetkan bangunan tempat tinggal biasa," tambah postingan tersebut.Para pejabat mengatakan banyak bangunan mengalami kerusakan, termasuk beberapa blok apartemen bertingkat tinggi.Di Darnytskyi district, sebuah bangunan berlantai lima sebagian hancur, dan tim penyelamat mencari orang-orang yang terjebak di reruntuhan, kata Tkachenko.Dia mengatakan kru darurat menanggapi akibat serangan di lebih dari 20 lokasi di kota.Kebakaran juga terjadi di beberapa area di seluruh kota.António Costa, presiden European Council, mengatakan dia "ngeri oleh satu lagi malam serangan rudal Rusia yang mematikan di Ukraina.""Pikiran saya bersama para korban Ukraina dan juga dengan staf @EUDelegationUA, yang gedungnya rusak dalam serangan Rusia yang disengaja ini," tulisnya di X."EU tidak akan terintimidasi. Agresi Rusia hanya memperkuat tekad kami untuk mendukung Ukraina dan rakyatnya," tambahnya.Secara terpisah, pihak tersebut mengatakan bahwa sistem pertahanan udaranya mencegat 102 drone Ukraina semalam.Reuters berkontribusi pada laporan ini.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

“Manisnya Berlipat Ganda” – Babak Baru bagi Industri Gula Guangxi

(SeaPRwire) - NANNING, Tiongkok, 28 Agustus 2025 -- Terletak di Tiongkok selatan, Daerah Otonomi Guangxi Zhuang, dengan sinar matahari dan curah hujan melimpah, merupakan "kerajaan tebu" alami. Selama musim giling 2024/2025, luas area tanam tebu di wilayah tersebut mencapai 11,35 juta mu (sekitar 756.667 hektar), meningkat 110.000 mu dari tahun ke tahun. Produksi gula melebihi 6,4 juta ton, dan wilayah tersebut telah mempertahankan 60% pangsa dari total produksi gula Tiongkok selama 20 musim giling berturut-turut, benar-benar sesuai dengan reputasinya sebagai "Lumbung Gula Nasional". Guangxi Sungain Sugar Industry Group Co., Ltd., sebagai perusahaan terkemuka, mencapai peningkatan signifikan dalam kapasitas pemrosesan tebu harian selama musim giling 2024/2025. Mengandalkan strategi "Eucalyptus Keluar, Tebu Masuk" dan penanaman mekanis proses penuh, kelompok tersebut mempercepat implementasi strategi "Kewirausahaan Kedua dan Pengembangan Kedua" untuk membangun tolok ukur baru bagi industrialisasi terdiversifikasi yang hijau, efisien, dan terkelompok. Ini sepenuhnya mendorong pembangunan ekonomi dan sosial yang berkelanjutan di wilayah setempat dan menyuntikkan dorongan untuk lebih mengkonsolidasikan posisi strategis terkemuka Guangxi dalam industri gula Tiongkok. Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, industri gula Guangxi terus-menerus mengalami transformasi dan peningkatan, merintis jalur pembangunan berkualitas tinggi yang menampilkan "teknologi + skala + pengembangan hijau".

Berpusat pada K-pop dan konser budaya, platform ini mengintegrasikan serangkaian layanan lengkap yang penting untuk monetisasi online pertunjukan langsung dan IP artis, termasuk penjualan tiket, streaming langsung bertenaga AI, alat interaksi penggemar, OTT video, perdagangan global, dan analitik data penggemar. Pembeda utama terletak pada teknologi streaming langsung milik BIGC yang ditingkatkan oleh AI, dikombinasikan dengan kemampuan canggihnya untuk menganalisis data penggemar di lebih dari 200 negara. Membangun kemitraan dengan lebih dari 130 tim—termasuk perusahaan media Korea terkemuka, musisi K-pop, dan K-artis—BIGC baru-baru ini memperluas cakupannya untuk menyertakan J-pop, artis terkenal dunia, serta IP festival. Hanya dalam dua tahun peluncuran layanannya, BIGC kini tersedia di 224 negara dan telah melampaui 1,1 juta anggota. Khususnya, sekitar 80% penggunanya adalah penggemar dari luar negeri, dengan pertumbuhan yang kuat di Jepang, Tiongkok Raya, dan Amerika Utara. BIGC telah mencapai lintasan pertumbuhan yang luar biasa baik dalam basis keanggotaan global maupun pendapatannya. Dalam setahun terakhir saja, keanggotaan telah meningkat 13 kali lipat, sementara pendapatan rata-rata telah tumbuh hampir lima kali lipat dibandingkan periode yang sama tahun lalu. Selama enam kuartal berturut-turut, perusahaan ini telah mencatat tingkat pertumbuhan kuartalan rata-rata sebesar 48%.

Pangsa pertunjukan online, yang sebesar 11,2% pada tahun 2024, juga diperkirakan akan mencapai 35% pada tahun 2030. Sebagai respons, BIGC membayangkan memimpin inovasi digital di industri hiburan global—yang secara tradisional berpusat pada pengalaman offline—dengan menghubungkan offline dan online melalui platform Venue Digital All-in-One-nya. Mihee Kim, CEO BIGC, menyatakan, “Investasi ini melampaui pendanaan—ini menandai titik awal untuk mewujudkan visi BIGC menjadi ‘Global No.1 dalam Teknologi Hiburan’ yang menyatukan artis dan penggemar di seluruh dunia.” Dia melanjutkan, “Dengan teknologi dan produk unik kami, kami akan mendefinisikan kembali pengalaman fandom global, meluas melampaui K-pop ke panggung dunia.” Dia menambahkan, “Kami sangat berterima kasih kepada para investor yang selaras dengan visi tim pendiri dan memberikan dukungan mereka.
