BARCELONA, SPAIN - Media OutReach Newswire - 1 March 2026 - Huawei will release the Agentic Core solution at MWC2026 Barcelona. This solution will leverage three engines—NE intelligence, network intelligence, and service intelligence—to address key challenges in the AI era, such as the sharp increase in traffic, differentiated network requirements, and new service monetization for operators, and promote the large-scale commercial use of intelligent network.

At C&W, we believe that introducing a public–private partnership model can enhance execution efficiency and help alleviate fiscal pressure, thereby accelerating the implementation of the Northern Metropolis development while leveraging market efficiency and innovation capabilities.

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 February 2026 - With the Ministry of Health (MOH) Malaysia prioritizing the suppression of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) in the 2026 budget, the domestic food industry is grappling with unprecedented 'formulation anxiety.' As the potential expansion of the Sugar Tax and stricter Nutri-Grade systems loom, experts view 2026 as a definitive tipping point. Mirroring Singapore's regulatory model, products labeled 'Grade D' (high sugar) face immediate advertising bans, effectively silencing their brand voice. As tax thresholds broaden to include categories like powder sachets, sugar reduction has shifted from a health trend to a non-negotiable requirement for profitability and retail viability. While brands strive to balance flavor with health, reducing sugar poses formidable technical challenges. Removing sucrose often introduces a medicinal aftertaste that compromises the consumer experience. Furthermore, in functional jellies and gummies, sugar is essential for structural stability; without it, products frequently suffer from syneresis (water separation). In the high-temperature climates of Southeast Asia, this structural failure leads to 'bursting juice' upon opening—a critical quality defect. To navigate these ......read more
