Beginner’s Guide to Travel Credit Cards

SINGAPORE, Oct 31, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Whether you're a frequent business traveller who's always on the go or a world explorer looking for your next adventure, a travel credit card can be a great way to make the best of your trips. The right travel credit card can enhance your travel experiences by offering opportunities to earn rewards, redeem rewards on travel expenses, access discounts and deals, and get perks and benefits like lounge access and travel insurance. Learn all about travel credit cards, what they can do for you and how to choose the right one in our guide below.What is a travel credit card?You may have heard of credit cards that offer discounts and savings on fuel, groceries or shopping. A travel credit card is a type of credit card that offers perks and rewards that make travel smooth and convenient. While the exact reward programs differ from one card to the next, what most miles credit cards have in common is that they grant users benefits and redemption opportunities specifically linked to travel.A travel credit card is a great way to turn everyday spending into travel rewards. Generally, a miles credit card or travel card will let you earn points, miles, or cashback on purchases, which you can redeem for travel-related expenses like flight tickets, hotel stays, car rentals, and more. Over time, savvy cardmembers may accumulate enough rewards to cover the full cost of a small vacation. Many travel credit cards also include benefits like complimentary lounge access, travel insurance, and exclusive discounts with partner airlines and hotels.Pros and Cons of a Travel Credit CardProsEarning points and miles: Your miles credit card helps you earn rewards on eligible purchases. If you use your credit card regularly for eligible purchases, your points or miles can add up quickly and bring you significant savings on your next trip.Sign-up bonuses: In addition to regular rewards, your card may offer a welcome bonus that lets you earn a significant number of points/miles if you meet certain spending criteria. These bonuses can provide a great boost to your rewards balance right from the start.Access to Airport Lounges: Your travel credit card may also include complimentary access to airport lounges, allowing you to enjoy a more relaxed travel experience with amenities like refreshments and comfortable seating before your flight.ConsHigh annual fees: Travel credit cards with good benefits may carry higher annual fees than regular cards. You'll need to review the costs and benefits associated with your credit card to decide if the travel benefits are worth the annual fee.Complex rewards systems: Rewards programs are only useful if you know how to use them well. It might take some time and effort to fully understand how to maximize your rewards.How to Choose a Travel Credit CardWhen choosing a travel or miles credit card in Singapore, consider your travel habits and preferences. Start by considering how often you travel. A card with a high fee may be worth it for frequent fliers, but if you only take one or two trips a year, seek out a card with a low or no annual fee with points that don't expire. You'll need to consider what benefits matter to you. Do you value lounge access, or is travel insurance more important? Choose a card that offers benefits that match your needs. Lastly, look for a rewards program that fits in with your lifestyle. If you spend a lot on dining and shopping, look for a card that offers higher rewards in those categories. Additionally, carefully review the points/redemption process before you apply for a travel credit card. A complex redemption process can be off-putting especially if there are many limits placed on redemption.Notice:Opinions, analyses, reviews, or recommendations expressed in this article are those of the select editorial staff's alone, and have not been reviewed, approved, or otherwise endorsed by any third party.Contact Information:Name: Sonakshi MurzeEmail: Sonakshi.murze@iquanti.comJob Title: ManagerSOURCE: iQuanti Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Nhà nghiên cứu cáo buộc chiến dịch tranh cử của Harris thao túng mạng xã hội

(SeaPRwire) -   Báo cáo cho biết Đảng Dân chủ đang phối hợp hoạt động trên Reddit và lạm dụng tính năng Community Notes của X Theo một nhà nghiên cứu người Mỹ, nhân viên chiến dịch tranh cử của Kamala Harris và Tim Walz đã tổ chức các hoạt động “astroturf” trên nền tảng mạng xã hội Reddit và âm mưu thao túng tính năng Community Notes trên X. “Astroturfing” là thuật ngữ dùng để chỉ nội dung được tạo ra nhằm đóng giả là nội dung đích thực, lấy tên từ loại đất nhân tạo được sử dụng tại các địa điểm thể thao của Mỹ, trái ngược với sự ủng hộ thực sự, “cỏ gốc”. Chiến dịch Harris-Walz “lừa đảo Community Notes bằng tài khoản sock puppet và chiến thuật astroturf. Và chúng tôi có ảnh chụp màn hình, bảng tính và thông tin liên lạc của chiến dịch để chứng minh điều đó,” Sean Davis, người sáng lập của outlet Federalist, đã đăng tải trên Twitter vào thứ Tư. Davis đang trích dẫn một của do một nhà nghiên cứu có biệt danh ‘Reddit Lies’ thực hiện, bao gồm ảnh chụp màn hình được lấy từ máy chủ Harris-Walz trên nền tảng nhắn tin Discord, nhằm chứng minh cách Đảng Dân chủ âm mưu tràn ngập mạng xã hội bằng nội dung của họ, đồng thời đàn áp những lời chỉ trích. Trong một ví dụ, nhân viên của Ủy ban Quốc gia Đảng Dân chủ, Timothy Durigan, đã hướng dẫn các tình nguyện viên của chiến dịch bỏ phiếu xuống một Ghi chú Cộng đồng đã gắn cờ bài đăng của tài khoản @KamalaHQ là không chính xác. Dự án Community Notes được Elon Musk triển khai sau khi ông mua lại Twitter - được đổi tên thành X - vào năm 2022, như một cách để gắn cờ các bài đăng không chính xác hoặc gây hiểu nhầm mà không cần đến việc kiểm duyệt. Theo ‘Reddit Lies’, nhiều tài khoản chính thức của Harris-Walz đã “thường xuyên cung cấp những bài thuyết trình không trung thực” về các đối thủ của họ, cựu Tổng thống Donald Trump và người chạy cùng JD Vance, đến mức ngay cả CNN cũng lên tiếng. Tuy nhiên, “gần như không có” bất kỳ “tweet sai lệch và gây hiểu nhầm” nào của họ có Community Notes - rất có thể là do một chiến dịch phối hợp để bỏ phiếu xuống, nhà nghiên cứu cho biết. Discord của Harris-Walz có một mô-đun “Twitter (X) Community Notes Training”, dạy người dùng cách tăng điểm số của họ và thúc giục họ hạ bậc xếp hạng những ghi chú gọi ra những tuyên bố không chính xác của Đảng Dân chủ, theo ảnh chụp màn hình được Federalist công bố. Mặc dù chiến dịch có thể đã thành công trong việc giữ Community Notes khỏi các bài đăng gây hiểu nhầm của họ, nhưng nó không thể thao túng hệ thống theo ý muốn, ‘Reddit Lies’ nói, trích dẫn một bài đăng trong đó một trong những người tổ chức than thở về các biện pháp bảo vệ của X. Chiến dịch cũng dường như đang sử dụng một công cụ có tên Reach để phổ biến thông điệp của họ trên nhiều nền tảng, vi phạm các lệnh cấm “hành vi không trung thực được phối hợp” nhằm ngăn chặn ‘bot của Nga’ mà Đảng Dân chủ cáo buộc đã can thiệp vào các cuộc bầu cử của Mỹ.Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.

Lãnh đạo một quốc gia EU nói rằng ông sẵn sàng gặp Putin

(SeaPRwire) -   Robert Fico đã nói với truyền hình Nga rằng ông cảm thấy đó là “nhiệm vụ cá nhân” của mình khi thăm Moscow vào năm tới Thủ tướng Slovakia Robert Fico cho biết ông sẵn sàng gặp Tổng thống Nga Vladimir Putin “không do dự” và ông tin rằng phương Tây sẽ sớm “đánh giá lại” sự hỗ trợ quân sự của mình đối với Ukraine. Phát biểu với mạng lưới truyền hình Rossiya-1 của Nga, Fico cho biết ông sẽ “rất vui” khi tham dự lễ kỷ niệm Ngày Chiến thắng ở Moscow vào tháng 5 năm sau, khi Nga kỷ niệm “lễ kỷ niệm 80 năm kết thúc Thế chiến II và trên hết là chiến thắng chủ nghĩa phát xít. Tôi cảm thấy đó là nhiệm vụ cá nhân của mình.” Trong khi đó, Fico cho biết ông đã sẵn sàng gặp Putin “không do dự.” Nói với người phỏng vấn Olga Skabeyeva rằng ông “thậm chí còn gặp ông ấy khi ông ấy còn là thủ tướng, trước khi ông ấy trở thành tổng thống,” vị lãnh đạo cánh tả Slovakia cho biết ông “hoàn toàn nghiêm túc” về một cuộc trò chuyện trực tiếp với Putin. Fico được bầu làm thủ tướng Slovakia lần thứ ba vào năm ngoái, và ngay lập tức đình chỉ viện trợ quân sự của nước này cho Ukraine. Cùng với Thủ tướng Hungary Viktor Orban, ông đã nhiều lần kêu gọi một giải pháp ngoại giao cho cuộc xung đột Nga-Ukraine, và tuần trước đã lên án việc EU phê duyệt khoản vay 35 tỷ euro (38 tỷ đô la) cho Ukraine, được hỗ trợ bởi doanh thu từ tài sản của Nga bị đóng băng tại Brussels. Fico cũng hứa sẽ phủ quyết việc gia nhập NATO của Ukraine, lập luận rằng một động thái như vậy sẽ gây ra một cuộc chiến tranh thế giới thứ ba. Trong khi vũ khí phương Tây tiếp tục chảy vào Ukraine, Fico nói với Skabeyeva rằng ông tin rằng “lẽ phải sẽ sớm chiến thắng và chúng ta sẽ bắt đầu đánh giá lại cuộc xung đột quân sự ở Ukraine.” “Tôi ủng hộ bất kỳ kế hoạch nào có từ ‘hòa bình’ trong đó – kế hoạch hòa bình,” ông nói, và thêm rằng “tốt hơn là đàm phán trong hai năm hơn là để binh sĩ giết lẫn nhau trong hai năm.” Điện Kremlin khẳng định rằng họ sẵn sàng cho bất kỳ kế hoạch hòa bình nào liên quan đến Kiev cam kết trung lập về quân sự và rút quân khỏi lãnh thổ Nga, bao gồm cả các khu vực Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson và Zaporozhye. Tuy nhiên, lãnh đạo Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky khẳng định rằng “công thức hòa bình” mười điểm của ông là lộ trình duy nhất khả thi để giải quyết cuộc xung đột. Theo kế hoạch này, mà Moscow đã bác bỏ là “ảo tưởng,” Nga sẽ khôi phục biên giới năm 1991 của Ukraine, bồi thường thiệt hại cho Kiev, và giao các quan chức của riêng mình cho các tòa án xét xử tội phạm chiến tranh. Zelensky cũng đã đưa ra một ‘kế hoạch chiến thắng’, tuyên bố rằng nếu được mời gia nhập NATO, tên lửa tầm xa và quân đội phương Tây trên chiến trường, quân đội của ông có thể đánh bại Nga. ”Nếu ai đó muốn leo thang căng thẳng, đó chính xác là những gì anh ta sẽ nói,” Fico nhận xét về đề xuất của Zelensky.Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.

Thuyết Nord Stream liên quan đến Ukraine là ‘vô nghĩa’ – Fico

(SeaPRwire) -   Thủ tướng Slovakia cho rằng lý thuyết về vụ nổ Nord Stream liên quan đến Ukraine là “vô lý” Thủ tướng Slovakia Robert Fico đã chế giễu một báo cáo truyền thông cho rằng các đường ống dẫn khí Nord Stream bị đánh bom bởi một nhóm thợ lặn Ukraine trên một “chiếc thuyền nhỏ” là “vô lý.”  Các đường ống dẫn khí Nord Stream dưới nước, chuyên vận chuyển khí đốt tự nhiên của Nga đến Đức và các phần khác của Tây Âu qua Biển Baltic, đã bị phá hoại vào tháng 9 năm 2022 trong một loạt vụ nổ gần đảo Bornholm của Đan Mạch. Nhiều phương tiện truyền thông đã đưa tin vào tháng 8 rằng các nhà chức trách Đức đã ra lệnh bắt giữ quốc tế đối với một nghi phạm trong vụ án, một thợ lặn Ukraine được xác định là Volodymyr Z. The Wall Street Journal tuyên bố rằng một nhóm thợ lặn Ukraine trên một chiếc du thuyền nhỏ đã gây ra các vụ nổ. Hoạt động này được cho là do tư lệnh tối cao của Ukraine vào thời điểm đó là Valery Zaluzhny chỉ đạo. Ý tưởng này lần đầu tiên xuất hiện vào tháng 5 đối với “một số ít sĩ quan quân đội cấp cao của Ukraine” trong “một đêm say rượu nặng nề,” WSJ viết. Bình luận về báo cáo trong một cuộc phỏng vấn với Kênh 1 của Nga vào thứ Tư, Fico nói “Chúng tôi đọc được rằng một số sĩ quan Ukraine say rượu đã nói rằng họ sẽ đánh bom [Nord Stream]. Tôi đang phóng đại một chút, nhưng hãy tưởng tượng rằng họ đã đi thuyền trên một chiếc thuyền nhỏ đến nơi đặt ống dẫn ... lặn xuống vài trăm mét, mang theo một số pháo hoa, và đánh bom nó. Vô lý.”  Theo WSJ, một phi hành đoàn gồm sáu người đã thuê một du thuyền giải trí tại một cảng Đức và khởi hành chỉ với trang thiết bị lặn, định vị vệ tinh và bản đồ nguồn mở. Nhóm này đã đặt một chất nổ có tên là HMX được nối với bộ kích nổ điều khiển bằng đồng hồ hẹn giờ vào các đường ống nằm ở độ sâu hơn 250 feet (80 mét) dưới nước. Moscow bác bỏ báo cáo này là không có cơ sở. Tổng thống Vladimir Putin đã giữ quan điểm rằng các vụ nổ được thực hiện bởi những người chuyên nghiệp được hỗ trợ bởi “toàn bộ sức mạnh của nhà nước, những người có một số công nghệ,” lưu ý rằng Mỹ “có khả năng” đứng đằng sau nó. Ngoại trưởng Sergey Lavrov lập luận rằng “chỉ những người sợ sự thật và đang cố gắng bảo vệ chế độ Kiev tội phạm” mới tin vào câu chuyện thợ lặn. Fico cũng lập luận rằng EU “từ chối” trả lời các câu hỏi về việc ai đứng sau vụ phá hoại Nord Stream. Vào tháng 9, Thủ tướng Đức Olaf Scholz kêu gọi một cuộc điều tra trung thực, tuyên bố rằng không có gì “được che giấu.”  Bình luận về cuộc điều tra của Đức, Lavrov tuyên bố rằng Berlin đã không chia sẻ bất kỳ thông tin nào với Moscow mặc dù đã có nhiều yêu cầu. Ông khẳng định rằng Nga sẽ yêu cầu một cuộc điều tra minh bạch, “đang bị Mỹ, Anh và các đồng minh chặn.”Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.

Thế giới giờ đây có ba cường quốc – tướng Mỹ nghỉ hưu

(SeaPRwire) -   Washington không còn là thế lực thống trị duy nhất trên trường quốc tế, cựu Chủ tịch Hội đồng Tham mưu trưởng Liên quân Mỹ Mark Milley đã nói. Kỷ nguyên đơn cực khi Mỹ là cường quốc thống trị duy nhất đã nhường chỗ cho thế giới đa cực, tướng Mark Milley đã thừa nhận vào hôm thứ Ba tại một cuộc họp của Hiệp hội các Ngân hàng Mỹ ở New York.   Cựu Chủ tịch Hội đồng Tham mưu trưởng Liên quân, người đã phục vụ dưới cả hai tổng thống Donald Trump và Joe Biden, cho biết hiện nay có ba siêu cường trên thế giới: Mỹ, Nga và Trung Quốc.   “Trong Chiến tranh Lạnh, có hai [siêu cường], ngay sau Chiến tranh Lạnh, đã có một thời khắc đơn cực, vì vậy trong một thời gian ngắn, Mỹ rõ ràng là tối cao và là siêu cường thực sự duy nhất ngoài kia,” theo Milley.   “Nhưng ngày nay, rõ ràng là chúng ta đang ở trong một thế giới đa cực,” Milley nói.   Ông cũng tuyên bố rằng các nhà lãnh đạo Mỹ nên đặc biệt chú ý đến Bắc Kinh, do tốc độ tăng trưởng và tham vọng phát triển quân sự của Trung Quốc. “Họ có lẽ là quốc gia duy nhất có khả năng và tầm xa để có thể thách thức vị thế của Mỹ trên quy mô toàn cầu,” vị tướng đã nghỉ hưu nói.   Milley nói thêm rằng Nga vẫn là một “mối đe dọa cấp tính,” vì họ có “rất nhiều vũ khí hạt nhân” và đang tham gia vào “cuộc chiến tranh mặt đất lớn nhất ở châu Âu kể từ năm 1945.”   Ông tin rằng thế giới đã trở nên “phức tạp hơn nhiều” và nhấn mạnh rằng trước những thách thức này, Mỹ phải nỗ lực duy trì cái gọi là “trật tự dựa trên luật lệ.” Nếu trật tự này bị sụp đổ, Milley cảnh báo, thế giới có thể bị đưa trở lại tư duy nơi mà “chỉ những người mạnh mới sống sót.”   Trong khi đó, Nga đã nhiều lần cáo buộc Mỹ lợi dụng cái gọi là “trật tự dựa trên luật lệ” để duy trì bá quyền toàn cầu bằng cách áp đặt các quy tắc của mình lên các quốc gia khác trong khi bản thân Mỹ không bao giờ tuân theo.   Tổng thống Nga Vladimir Putin cũng đã nhiều lần chỉ ra rằng không có quy tắc nào trong cái gọi là “trật tự dựa trên luật lệ” đã từng được xác định rõ ràng hoặc được bất kỳ ai phê duyệt, và ông đã cáo buộc phương Tây liên tục thay đổi chúng “tùy thuộc vào tình hình chính trị hiện tại.”  Thay vào đó, Moscow đã thúc đẩy một trật tự thế giới dựa trên luật pháp quốc tế, trong đó các quốc gia đối xử với nhau trên cơ sở tôn trọng lẫn nhau và cùng có lợi.    Phát biểu tại Hội nghị thượng đỉnh BRICS ở Kazan hồi đầu tháng này, Putin kêu gọi tạo ra “một trật tự thế giới đa cực, bao trùm và dân chủ hơn, dựa trên luật pháp quốc tế và Hiến chương Liên hợp quốc.”Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.

‘Lửa lớn’ bùng phát tại xưởng đóng tàu hạt nhân của Anh (ẢNH, VIDEO)

(SeaPRwire) -   Hai người đã được đưa đến bệnh viện nhưng các nhà chức trách cho biết “không có nguy cơ hạt nhân” Một “lửa lớn” đã bùng phát tại một xưởng đóng tàu ngầm hạt nhân ở tây bắc nước Anh, làm hai người bị thương, chính quyền địa phương cho biết, đồng thời khẳng định không có nguy cơ xảy ra thảm họa hạt nhân. Cảnh sát cho biết vụ việc xảy ra vào khoảng 12:30 sáng thứ Tư tại cơ sở đóng tàu của nhà thầu quốc phòng BAE Systems ở Barrow-in-Furness. Hai người được cho là đã được đưa đến bệnh viện sau khi bị ngạt khói. “Không có nguy cơ hạt nhân. Tuy nhiên, người dân sống gần đó được khuyên nên ở trong nhà trong khi các dịch vụ khẩn cấp ứng phó với vụ việc và đóng cửa sổ và cửa ra vào,” cảnh sát cho biết, lưu ý rằng những người ở khu vực bị ảnh hưởng bởi đám cháy đã được sơ tán và được kiểm tra. Hình ảnh và video được đăng trên mạng xã hội cho thấy những gì có vẻ như là một cột khói bốc lên từ bên trong cơ sở đóng tàu. Vương quốc Anh hiện đang tăng cường hạm đội tàu ngầm hạt nhân của mình và dự định đưa vào hoạt động bốn tàu ngầm mang tên lửa đạn đạo lớp Dreadnought mới vào những năm 2030. Loại tàu này dự kiến ​​sẽ thay thế lớp Vanguard, và giống như người tiền nhiệm, sẽ mang theo tên lửa có thể được trang bị đầu đạn hạt nhân. Ngoài ra, vào tháng 9, Vương quốc Anh đã cam kết 4 tỷ bảng Anh (5,2 tỷ đô la) để phát triển tàu ngầm chạy bằng năng lượng hạt nhân SSN-AUKUS, việc xây dựng sẽ diễn ra tại Barrow-in-Furness.Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.

Military Metals Enters Definitive Agreement to Acquire European Union Antimony Deposits

Two Antimony and One Tin Project in SlovakiaVancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 30, 2024) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "Military") is pleased to announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with 1509149 B.C. Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, 1458205 B.C. Ltd. (the "Target"), and the controlling shareholder of the Target pursuant to which the Company will acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital of the Target (the "Target Shares") by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the "Amalgamation")."As we acquire this premier antimony project in Slovakia with historical resources, we're taking a transformative step to strengthen Europe's access to essential raw materials. With a well established, rich mineral base, this brownfield site enables us to work towards a reliable domestic antimony supply when Europe faces mounting supply chain pressures," said CEO Scott Eldridge. "This acquisition reflects our commitment to reducing reliance on Chinese imports, ensuring stability for the European market, and empowering the West to drive a more resilient, self-sufficient future for critical materials."About the TargetThe Target owns three brownfield projects in Slovakia. Of the three projects, Trojarova is the most advanced ("Trojarova"). Located in western Slovakia, it potentially hosts one of the European Union's most significant known primary antimony deposits. 63 holes were historically completed into the deposit during the 1980-1900s over a strike length of 1.5 kilometers, along with nearly 1.7 kilometers of underground workings; the deposit hosts historical (non-compliant) antimony and accessory gold resources classified in the Soviet era Russian classification system.Additionally, Military has acquired both a tin and second antimony property in Slovakia. The tin property ("Medvedi-Potok"), likewise features significant historical drilling, underground development, and features a historical (non-compliant) tin resource. The Tiennesgrund antimony property features over two dozen small underground workings along its 10-kilometer length where historical production is reported.Consideration for the acquisition of 100% of the Target Shares comprises 10,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (the "Company Shares"), at a deemed issuance price of $0.56 per Company Share, valued at a sum of CAD $5.6 million. The Company will also assume the Target's obligations in respect of its outstanding share purchase warrants, which will provide holders the right to acquire up to 3,499,997 Company Shares at an exercise price of $0.10 per share."The Trojarova antimony project is potentially one of Europe's most significant primary antimony deposits. We've experienced an unprecedented rise in the antimony price increasing from $11,000 USD per tonne, to a current spot of approximately $34,000. Increased trade wars and geopolitical tensions have placed stronger importance on this strategic metal with multiple applications," said CEO Scott Eldridge. "The EU's Critical Raw Materials Act has opened multiple financing sources from local European institutions to foster the development of strategic metals within Europe's boarders."Antimony, a vital component in everything from battery technologies to advanced military applications such as night vision and infrared sensors, is classified as a critical mineral by the United States, Canada, the European Union, and the United Kingdom. Currently, over 90% of global antimony reserves are concentrated in China, Russia, and Tajikistan. Military seeks to target antimony with the goal of contributing to the global antimony supply, and filling a gap that is present in the ability of Western countries to obtain this critical mineral.About the ProjectsDiscovered in the late 1970s, Trojarova was the focus of extensive surface and underground exploration from 1983 to 1995, with 63 core holes for a total of 14,330m, and 1.7km of underground workings completed. Efforts continued over the years as additional trenches were dug and holes were drilled. Starting in 1990, underground development work began ultimately comprising a 300-meter-long adit connected to a 700-plus meter-long drive in the footwall of the mineralized zone with seven crosscuts into the mineralized zone for sampling purposes. These efforts culminated in a multi-volume study comprising drill logs, analyses, drill plans, maps and sections, deposit model studies, petrographic studies, metallurgical studies and more, culminating in a multi-volume compendium of reports produced by the Slovak Geological Institute published in 1992 (the "1992 Report"). Upon completion of the Amalgamation, the Company will move forward to verify this historical estimate by confirmation drilling so that it is able to classify mineral resources at Trojarova as current, in accordance with National Instrument 43-101. The historical estimate at Trojarova was classified using the Slovak version of the newly post-Soviet Russian classification system, which is not directly comparable to or compatible with the western system as defined by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroluem ("CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves").The 1992 Report contains a table featuring 10 alternate historical resource estimates, five focused on the antimony component of the mineralized system and five on its gold component, each group of five featuring decreasing tonnage at increasing grade for antimony and gold, respectively:Historical alternate resource estimate scenarios for TrojarovaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/228324_9c2d07525482cbe0_001full.jpgThe Slovak Geological Institute, the state agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojárová, classified the resource as "P1" in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system. P1 is closest within the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum's ("CIM") classification system to "Inferred Mineral Resources," which is defined by the CIM as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes.Considerable work remains to be completed before it will be possible to classify mineralization documented at Trojarova as current mineral resources. The historical drill logs need to be translated and transcribed into a logging format suitable for resource estimation purposes. All collar locations along with the underground maps need to be digitized and georeferenced. Depending upon the assessed quality and reliability of these data, it will be possible for a resource estimation geologist to determine the extent of confirmation drilling necessary so that mineralization documented at Trojarova can be classified as current mineral resources. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. Military is not treating the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves.The Tiennesgrund antimony project, located in eastern Slovakia, comprises a 10-kilometer-long license covering a large, fault/shear-hosted antimony-gold vein system hosting multiple adits and a long artisanal-scale mining history. The nearby Medvedi-Potok property hosts a classic tin vein system in a greisened intrusive; it features underground workings and a historical (non-compliant) resource. Additionally, on completion of the Amalgamation, the Company will inherit a small processing facility in Slovakia owned by the Target. Its inclusion in our strategic narrative underscores our commitment to efficiency and innovation, making it a key differentiator in today's market.With global demand for antimony soaring and critical mineral supply chains becoming increasingly strained geopolitically, Military is seeking to take advantage of a strategic opportunity to acquire an asset that can fill this global demand.Map showing the location of Military's properties in SlovakiaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/228324_9c2d07525482cbe0_002full.jpgThe technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by Avrom E.

Notably, the latter project has been selected by IDC China as a contender for the prestigious IDC Future Enterprise Awards Asia Pacific, where it competes alongside other world class top-tier companies. This recognition signifies the widespread acknowledgment of these two projects by esteemed consulting institutions, industry experts, and the business community at large.  China Entercom collaborates with CR Beer to launch “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network” project, Earned the “Best in Future of Connectedness of IDC Future Enterprise Awards China”, Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy director of the Intelligence and Digital Department of China Resources Beer, received the award on site  China Entercom empowers “CR Beer’s Green Factory with Digital Intelligence” projectAwarded the “IDC’s Best in Future of Digital Industry Navigator Case”Mr. Tao Zhi Bin, Deputy Director of Intelligence and Digitalization Department of China Resources Beer, received the award on siteAccording to the IDC panel of judges, CR Beer has established itself as a benchmark company in the industry for its outstanding performance in smart manufacturing and green production. By extensively and proactively integrating innovative technologies into business scenarios, such as Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), the company has developed various types of technology applications to enhance their productivity and resource utilization with smarter production processes. Coupled with digitization, the company has optimized the supply chain management, reduced wastes of resources and improved the transparency of the entire value chain. An environmentally-friendly production mode has also been created by technological innovations, thereby decreasing wastewater discharge, effectively recycling energy and limiting carbon footprints. The two award-winning projects of CR Beer that highlight digital intelligence have not only demonstrated a win-win situation for economic and environmental benefits through digital transformation, but have also highlighted its role as an enabler of social and digital economic development, showcasing its corporate responsibility.“It is such an honor to receive these two valuable awards, and the recognition of our efforts in digital transformation. We are further convinced to uphold longtermism, and to accelerate all-round development in terms of globalization, premiumization, greening, cultural innovation and so on,” said Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer. “We would not have developed these two benchmark projects and outcompeted others without our critical partner, China Entercom, and its innovative ICT technologies and solutions. Our partnership dates back to 2019, and our teams have gained mutual trust in those five years so that we have achieved successful digitization regarding innovative technology and business innovation services. Far beyond being a provider of technologies, solutions and services, China Entercom is the trusted partner of CR Beer’s digital transformation journey.”Mr. Tao Zhi Bin, Deputy Director of Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer, said, “ At the IDC conference, CR Beer's green factory with digital intelligence was honored “Future of Digital Industry Navigator Case”. This acknowledgement not only affirms our achievements in constructing a green factory with digital intelligence, but also recognizes the potential for our company's future development. As a critical partner of CR Beer, China Entercom has provided strong support in intelligent cloud network security services, laying a solid digital foundation for us to realize our green vision of low-carbon operations. The collaboration between the two parties has achieved technical complementarity and integration, sparking deep synergies across business models, market strategies and different aspects.”Mr. Brook Wong, Chief Executive Officer of CITIC Telecom CPC and President of China Entercom, said, “It is a great pleasure and honor to work with CR Beer on digital transformation, which is both a leading, high-quality, all-rounded alcoholic beverage company and a very important corporate client. I believe that this award is undoubtedly a high recognition for the collaborative projects between the two parties, and it is also a strong affirmation of our motto “Innovation Never Stops” and dedication in the ICT industry for more than two decades. Our next step will be riding on the wave of the digital economy, while pursuing innovation in digital intelligence, boosting high-quality development in ‘AI+ Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions, and accelerating the advancement of the ICT industry. We are committed to making technology the ultimate business enabler, promoting high-quality development with innovation and intelligence.”From the Present to the Future: China Entercom Customizes a Future-Proof “All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security” Platform for CR Beer to Realize Digital IntelligenceHeadquartered in Beijing, CR Beer is one of the significant members of China Resources Group in terms of the consumer sector, and also a pioneer with a history spanning over 30 years in the domestic alcoholic beverage industry. In view of aggregate sales, CR Beer has been top-ranked in the Chinese beer market since 2006, however, the market competition has become fiercer with the change in market demands and consumption needs, notably the trends of premiumization and diversification among the leading enterprises in the past few years. CR Beer realized digitization and intelligentization are the keys to capture the market, so it implemented the “3+3+3” corporate development strategy for premiumization in 2017, moved towards technology productization in 2020, and recently launched a dual empowerment model of “Beer and Baijiu”.To achieve digital transformation, CR Beer needs to generate higher values from technologies and foster business growth by addressing the preexisting challenges. More importantly, it needs a reliable partner with technological expertise, tailor-made solutions, exceptional service capabilities and global resources to flexibly support its future businesses and advance the three critical objectives: (1) enhance network continuity and scalability, (2) improve network efficiency, and (3) reinforce the security protection of the entire digital infrastructure.“Having considered carefully and conducted rigorous technical tests, CR Beer decided to join hands with China Entercom. With its full-cycle support from customization, deployment and installation, implementation to operation and maintenance, we adopted its innovative suite of ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions (MPLS + SD-WAN + Security + SASE + Private Cloud). With this solution as a solid and secure foundation for digital transformation, CR Beer has experienced a seamless and highly efficient transformation journey, which is in line with the ultimate goals of our partnership,” said Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.IDC commented on “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network” project, said: “This project has excelled and outcompeted others in network optimization, service delivery, technology innovation and low-carbon development. Additionally, the one-stop service provided by China Entercom not only streamlines the network management, but also ensures network stability and security with its round-the-clock monitoring function. With the integration of multiple innovative technologies, the customized ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions have addressed the digital transformation requirements of CR Beer. In particular, deploying the private cloud in the low-carbon data center is apparently a proactive approach to environmental protection and low-carbon operation, providing an excellent paradigm of both economic benefits and social responsibility commitments, setting a benchmark for the industry.”Rooted in China, Connecting Globally: China Entercom as the long-term partner of CR Beer’s Globalization StrategyCR Beer is committed to fulfilling its responsibility as a subsidiary of China Resources Group, actively promoting the “Belt and Road” Initiative and global development. To connect globally, the company first established a global strategic partnership with Heineken Group in 2019 under the “Going Global” policy, making China the second largest market for Heineken. By leveraging the global resources of China Entercom and its parent company CITIC Telecom CPC, the next step of CR Beer is to promote a comprehensive digital transformation with network improvement as the basis, realizing automated workflow and intelligent decision support. Meanwhile, the company is looking forward to boosting operational efficiency and responsiveness to drive rapid business growth and expand its market presence along the “Belt and Road”, in Southeast Asia, Europe and the global market.Mr. Henry Ko, General Manager of Enterprise Sales, China Entercom, said, “The cooperation between China Entercom and CR Beer started at the initial stage of its digital transformation journey. As an industry leader, CR Beer has more heightened requirements of digital transformation — cost reduction, higher efficiency, and most importantly, holistically solving current pain points and challenges for a better future. And this is where our strengths lie. Having worked with a variety of industries for more than 20 years, China Entercom is well aware that forward-looking technologies and services offered by solution providers are the keys to maximizing clients’ IT investment efficiency.”“There are some prerequisites for new technology applications to attain cost reduction and efficiency enhancement during digital transformation. The first is to select the right technologies and solutions, and the second is to carry out customized implementation and deployment for better business development. In other words, choosing the right partner matters. It is a great pleasure to be the right partner for CR Beer, and to be working together since the very beginning of its digital transformation, which it has eventually achieved higher efficiency with technologies,” continued Mr. Ko.Beer with ICT Innovations: CR Beer Adds a Hint of New Technology FlavorThe in-depth cooperation between CR Beer and China Entercom demonstrates the convergence of innovative ICT technologies with the traditional alcoholic beverage industry, resembling a brewer blending liquors delicately. The next stage of cooperation is reportedly in the direction of going globally, AI+ and SOC-as-a-Service (SOCaaS).“Under the leadership of Mr. Guo Hua, Chief Digital Officer of CR Beer, the information technology team is actively promoted ‘Five Transformations, Three Concentrations, One Core, and Four Platforms as the transformation framework to comprehensively promote the implementation of the digital strategy, committed to aligning with top international standards.  As we strongly support the digitalization of our business systems, we consistently enhance infrastructure development and information security. In parallel, we are proactively delving into the implementation of cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, aiming to propel our digital transformation efforts.  Our goal is to establish a globally competitive IT brand and highlight the distinctive value of CR Beer and its IT division through recognition at the IDC awards.  We anticipate our continued collaboration with China Entercom, strategically mapping out our long-term partnership to achieve a more robust digital transformation and sustainable development,” concluded Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.References[1]Source: CR Beer[2]https://www.jnexpert.com/article/detail?id=4040About IDC Future Enterprise Awards ChinaIn its ninth year, the IDC Future Enterprise Awards recognize remarkable institutions, organizations and/or individuals that have showcased critical efforts and breakthroughs in digital transformation.

Suzuki and Toyota to Deepen Collaboration in the Field of Electrified Vehicles

Toyota City, Japan, Oct 30, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Suzuki Motor Corporation (Suzuki) and Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) have decided to further strengthen collaboration in the supply of a battery EV (BEV) SUV model developed by Suzuki to Toyota. This new model is scheduled to be manufactured at Suzuki Motor Gujarat in India from the spring of 2025.Both Suzuki and Toyota's businesses have their roots in Enshu―the western part of Shizuoka Prefecture―and both companies took on the challenge of switching their businesses from looms to automobiles. Since Suzuki's Chairman (current Senior Advisor) Osamu Suzuki and Toyota's President (current Chairman) Akio Toyoda started exploring business partnerships in 2016, both companies have engaged in a wide-ranging collaboration, aiming to provide people with freedom of movement and fun-to-drive. The fields of collaboration are diverse and include production and mutual supply of vehicles, and the spread of electrified vehicles. As a result, the market launch of collaboration vehicles has expanded to Japan, India, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.This new development marks the first BEV in the OEM relationship between the two companies. It will be launched worldwide, providing a BEV choice even in the SUV market, which is showing remarkable growth. With this new addition, Suzuki and Toyota will further promote their respective initiatives toward realizing a carbon-neutral society.The new model was designed exclusively as a BEV. A nimble SUV with the sharp driving characteristics of a BEV, it features ample cruising range and a comfortable cabin. It is also available with a 4WD system, offering exceptional drivability on rough roads and a more powerful driving performance.The BEV unit and platform adopted for this model were jointly developed by Suzuki, Toyota, and Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd., utilizing each company's strength.Comment from Suzuki President Toshihiro Suzuki"Suzuki will supply our first BEV to Toyota globally. I am grateful that the collaboration between the two companies has further deepened in this way. While continuing to be competitors, we will deepen our collaborations toward solving social issues, including the realization of a carbon-neutral society through a multi-pathway approach."Comment from Toyota President Koji Sato"By leveraging the BEV unit and platform that we jointly developed, we will take a new step in our collaboration in the field of electrified vehicles. This will allow us to deliver various choices that contribute to a carbon-neutral society to customers worldwide. We would like to learn from each other's strengths, compete, and further joint efforts based on a multi-pathway approach."About Toyota Motor CorporationToyota Motor Corporation works to develop and manufacture innovative, safe and high-quality products and services that create happiness by providing mobility for all.

Lầu Năm Góc công bố chiến lược công nghiệp quốc phòng

(SeaPRwire) -   Hoa Kỳ lo ngại về những vấn đề gặp phải khi cố gắng cung cấp vũ khí cho Ukraine Bộ Quốc phòng Hoa Kỳ cho biết, cuộc xung đột Nga-Ukraine đã bộc lộ “những điểm yếu” trong chuỗi cung ứng toàn cầu, đòi hỏi hành động của khối quân sự-công nghiệp phương Tây. Các ngành công nghiệp của Hoa Kỳ và các đồng minh đã phải vật lộn để đáp ứng nhu cầu của Ukraine về vũ khí và đạn dược, và cần phải “trở nên linh hoạt và kiên cường hơn,” Lầu Năm Góc lập luận trong kế hoạch triển khai Chiến lược Công nghiệp Quốc phòng Quốc gia (NDIS), được công bố vào thứ Ba. “Kế hoạch triển khai này cung cấp cho ngành công nghiệp, các đồng minh và đối tác toàn cầu hướng dẫn rõ ràng về các ưu tiên của Bộ đối với việc xây dựng năng lực công nghiệp,” Laura Taylor-Kale, trợ lý bộ trưởng về chính sách cơ sở công nghiệp, nói với các phóng viên trong một cuộc họp báo. Theo Bill LaPlante, thứ trưởng phụ trách mua sắm và duy trì, kế hoạch triển khai nhằm mục đích “phục vụ như một khung khổ hướng dẫn cho các quyết định phân bổ nguồn lực và đầu tư trong những năm tới,” từ việc thông báo các ưu tiên ngân sách và xác định trọng tâm của các nỗ lực nghiên cứu và phát triển, đến việc thúc đẩy “sự hợp tác của Lầu Năm Góc với ngành công nghiệp.” Kế hoạch nêu rõ cách giải quyết sự thiếu hụt trong các hóa chất quan trọng, đúc và rèn, vi điện tử, và cơ sở công nghiệp cần thiết cho vũ khí siêu thanh, với ước tính 393,4 triệu USD từ quỹ Luật Sản xuất Quốc phòng. “Có một mối quan ngại thực sự xung quanh sự yếu kém của chuỗi cung ứng,” Taylor-Kale cho biết, lưu ý sự hiện diện của “các nguồn đối địch trong chuỗi cung ứng của chúng ta” và đôi khi chỉ có một nguồn cung cấp phụ tùng. Một phần khác của kế hoạch liên quan đến việc thúc đẩy sản xuất trong nước các loại đạn pháo 155mm lên đến hàng tỷ đô la, và yêu cầu Quân đội Hoa Kỳ hiện đại hóa các nhà máy và kho đạn dược của mình. Trong số sáu sáng kiến ​​quan trọng được nêu trong kế hoạch là đầu tư để “di dời” các thành phần và vật liệu quan trọng nhất, hợp tác với các ngành công nghiệp của các nước đồng minh, phát triển các khả năng mới bằng cách sử dụng “các con đường linh hoạt,” và hiện đại hóa các hệ thống vũ khí hiện có, chẳng hạn như bộ ba hạt nhân. Một sáng kiến ​​khác sẽ bảo vệ quyền sở hữu trí tuệ của Hoa Kỳ và bảo vệ chống lại “đầu tư của đối thủ.” Lầu Năm Góc hy vọng kế hoạch NDIS sẽ thông báo chính sách ở Washington bất kể ai được bầu làm tổng thống vào tháng 11. Quân đội đã yêu cầu 37,73 tỷ USD để thực hiện chiến lược này, trong số 849,8 tỷ USD ngân sách được yêu cầu cho năm tài chính 2025. Hơn 75% số tiền đó đã được dành cho tên lửa và đạn dược, trong khi khoảng 4 tỷ USD sẽ được dành cho cơ sở công nghiệp tàu ngầm.

‘Nhà kinh tế học chính xác nhất thế giới’ dự đoán kết quả cuộc bầu cử Mỹ

(SeaPRwire) -   Trump sẽ “có khả năng cao” chiến thắng, theo Christophe Barraud Ứng viên đảng Cộng hòa Donald Trump sẽ “có khả năng cao” giành chiến thắng trong cuộc bầu cử tổng thống Hoa Kỳ vào tháng tới, nhà kinh tế học Christophe Barraud, được Bloomberg xếp hạng là nhà dự báo hàng đầu về nền kinh tế Mỹ, đã nói. Còn một tuần nữa là đến ngày bầu cử, ứng viên đảng Dân chủ và phó tổng thống hiện tại Kamala Harris dẫn trước Trump với tỷ lệ ít hơn một điểm phần trăm, theo New York Times, tờ báo đã đưa tin rằng khoảng cách đang thu hẹp và các bang chiến trường vẫn “cực kỳ sít sao.” Đưa ra dự đoán của mình trong một bài đăng trên X (trước đây là Twitter) vào thứ Hai, Barraud viết: “Nhìn vào các chỉ số khác nhau như thị trường cá cược, các cuộc thăm dò, dự báo của các mô hình bầu cử, thị trường tài chính, tính đến thời điểm hiện tại, kết quả khả thi nhất là: Trump chiến thắng; Đảng Cộng hòa giành chiến thắng áp đảo.”   Barraud là nhà kinh tế trưởng và chiến lược gia tại Market Securities, và đã được trao danh hiệu Nhà dự báo hàng đầu về Kinh tế Mỹ của Blomberg hàng năm ngoại trừ một lần kể từ năm 2012. Ông cũng đã trình bày một số kịch bản có thể xảy ra về kết quả bầu cử Hoa Kỳ trong một cuộc phỏng vấn với Business Insider hồi đầu tuần này. “Trump chiến thắng với Đảng Cộng hòa giành chiến thắng áp đảo” và đa số tại Thượng viện sẽ cho phép tổng thống mới thực hiện giảm thuế cho các tập đoàn và hộ gia đình, cũng như tập trung nhiều hơn vào chính sách trong nước hơn là chính sách đối ngoại, Barraud cho biết. Điều này cũng sẽ có tác động tích cực trong ngắn hạn đối với tăng trưởng kinh tế của Hoa Kỳ, tạo ra sự thúc đẩy GDP từ 2,1% đến 2,3% vào năm 2025, ông nói thêm.  Trong số các kịch bản khác là Trump chiến thắng với Quốc hội bị chia rẽ, theo chuyên gia. Điều này sẽ hạn chế khả năng cắt giảm thuế của ông, buộc ông phải tập trung vào chính sách đối ngoại, có khả năng bằng cách thực hiện các hạn chế thương mại và thuế quan, Barraud nói. Kết quả sẽ làm tổn hại đến tăng trưởng toàn cầu và làm chậm nền kinh tế Hoa Kỳ về lâu dài, ông nói thêm. Nếu Harris chiến thắng với Quốc hội bị chia rẽ, sẽ có những thay đổi tối thiểu đối với các chính sách kinh tế, theo Barraud. Trước đó, Allan Lichtman, được biết đến như là “Nostradamus” của các cuộc bầu cử Hoa Kỳ vì đã dự đoán chính xác chín trong số mười kết quả bầu cử tổng thống gần đây kể từ năm 1984, cho biết Harris sẽ giành chiến thắng trong cuộc bỏ phiếu ngày 5 tháng 11.  Bài viết được cung cấp bởi nhà cung cấp nội dung bên thứ ba.
