CHAGEE's Signature Drink Gets a Meaningful Makeover: Introducing BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA

In time for International Tea Day on 21 May, CHAGEE reintroduces its bestselling drink — with a new name that reflects its essence.SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 21 May 2025 - This International Tea Day, CHAGEE unveils a new name for its global bestseller: BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA. More than a name change, BO·YA reflects what the tea truly stands for — connection, craftsmanship, and flavour that resonates beyond taste. With over 600 million cups sold annually, this is CHAGEE's most beloved drink. The new name honours its popularity while shining a light on the artistry behind every cup. A new name for a timeless craft While jasmine green tea is common in Southeast Asia, not all jasmine teas are created equal. Many rely on artificial sprays or oil-based flavourings to mimic fragrance, resulting in tea that smells strong but tastes hollow. BO·YA is different. Crafted using a traditional multi-round scenting method, fresh jasmine blossoms are layered over green tea leaves each night at peak bloom, then removed by hand and replaced over multiple cycles. The leaves absorb not just the scent, but the soul of the flowers — leaving behind no petals, only a naturally layered aroma. The tea itself is a blend of two premium teas: Yunnan high-mountain leaves, prized for depth, and Fujian Da Bai Hao, known for clarity. Every batch is handpicked at the standard of "one bud and two leaves", then transformed through CHAGEE's artisan process. A tea steeped ......read more

Harmful advice for traders: Octa broker's warnings

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 15 May 2025 - When navigating online trading recommendations, it's easy to come across information that goes against the grain of conventional financial wisdom. Some of these bits of advice are questionable, while others can be straight-up harmful to financial outcomes.

Octa, a regulated and trusted broker, breaks down some of the worst advice traders can follow and describes potential consequences that can ensue while offering viable counterarguments. Harmful advice #1: forget about brokers' reputation Imagine a trader who doesn't care whether their broker is regulated and trusted, focusing solely on short-term financial gains mentioned in ads. This approach can be rooted in the unwillingness to go into too much detail when choosing a broker. After all, the difference between regulated and unregulated brokers often becomes evident only with time. It's not always possible to spot a difference from the get-go, especially for the less experienced traders. In reality, regulation plays a crucial role in defining brokers' reliability. Some unregulated brokers may engage in unethical or illegal practices, such as unauthorised trading, churning (excessive trading to generate commissions), or offering fake investment products. In the long term, a more reasonable approach would be to ......read more
