Direct Flights to MyanmarFlights to Myanmar
Straight to Laos? - The Myanmar Message Board
Straight to Laos? So, which carriers are offering this direct to Laos, direct to Laos, direct to Laos? When this works for you, it is less expensive to travel with Air Asia to Udon Thani, Thailand (via Bangkok). From the Friendship Bridge to Vientiane, Laos, it is only about 60-90 min. by coach.
If you want to stop there, Nong Khai, Thailand, is a nice city on the Thai side of the Mekong, if you want to take a direct plane to Laos? then you might as well take Airasia from Bangkok to Vientienne.... Direct plane to Laos? Direct plane to Laos? The thread has been discontinued due to apathy.

Dragoonair launches direct flights to Myanmar in January
From January, Hong Kong will be linked to Yangon, Myanmar's biggest town and former capitol, by direct flights. Dragonair's flights are part of the growing relationship between Hong Kong and the land that has emerged from years of economical and policy separation. Myanmar Airways International (MAI) also has direct flights to Hong Kong, although no launch date has been made.
A group of Hong Kong producers and Myanmar embassy representatives spoke to each other about the possibilities for investing in the state. Patrick Yeung, CEO of Dragoonair, announced the new Yangon service: "The launch of this new location will further reinforce Hong Kong's status as a major air transport centre. Currently Hong Kong travelers travel via Bangkok, Guangzhou or Singapore to Myanmar and it may take seven hour to the city.
With the new flights, which will be operated four days a week, the trip will be reduced to five-hour. The last time Cathay Pacific had a direct duty was in the 1940'. Hong Kong to Myanmar direct flights were temporarily operated by Hong Kong Express and MAI until 2008. Wimn Kahine, MAI General Deputy General manager of Sale andarketing, said that the carrier had initially scheduled to recommence direct services on the line from December, with flights three flights a day per time.
"Hongkong International did not give us convenient time. Companies and tour operators greeted the new Dragoonair alliance. Felix Chung Kwok-pan, president of the Hong Kong Apparel Society, said a group of textiles, apparel and watches producers were interested in creating an "industrial park" on the outskirts of Yangon, as the United States relaxed Myanmar's trading sanction after Burma's regime's political reform in September.
Chung, the new legislator for the clothing and textiles industry, said he headed an economic mission with the Yangon based Council for Economic Development in June. In Hong Kong today, he held a meeting with Myanmar consular officials to consider the suggestion. "Direct flights are good because they can spare us a few extra time.
Yiu-chung, head of the Council, said he expects there to be packages organized by MYMCA. Said he believes Yangon with its long and wealthy past will become a favorite holiday spot for its people.

The recent publication of a white paper by the Beijing municipal government is generating a lot of interest in the crypto world. The document coincides with the introduction of new digital asset regulations in Hong Kong, further fueling curiosity about China’s stance on the crypto industry.
Beijing strengthens position as global innovation hub
At the prestigious Zhongguancun Forum, an event known as a technology innovation incubator, the Administrative Commission of Zhongguancun Science Park presented the “White Paper on Web3 Innovation and Development”. The local news medium The Paper message that the document considers the emerging Web3 technology as an inevitable trend for the future development of the Internet industry.
The ambitious goal of the committee is to Beijing to transform into a leading hub of global innovation in the digital economy. To achieve this vision, the committee has announced plans to allocate at least $14 million (100 million yuan) annually until 2025. The announcement was made by Yang Hongfu, the director of the management committee of Zhongguancun Chaoyang Park, during the forum. He emphasized that Zhongguancun is widely recognized as China’s Silicon Valley.
The white paper, according to reports, highlights Beijing’s determination to strengthen policies and accelerate technological advancements to promote the growth of the web3 industry. This indicates a clear recognition of the enormous potential of the Web3 technology and Beijing’s desire to play a leading role in this emerging sector.
The publication of this white paper, combined with recent Hong Kong regulations, sheds new light on China’s stance on cryptocurrencies and the wider crypto industry. While some countries struggle to get the right approach and create regulations that not only promote innovation but also protect investor interests, China seems determined to take a leading position in this rapidly evolving sector.
A fascinating time for the crypto industry
Changpeng Zhao, Binance’s CEO, has expressed surprise at the timing of the white paper’s release. He points out that Hong Kong’s cryptocurrency regulation will start on June 1, which makes the timing of this announcement all the more remarkable.
Last week, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission announced new regulations for the crypto industry, announcing that retail investors will be able to participate in cryptocurrency trading from June 1. At the same time, a new licensing framework for crypto platforms is being introduced. These efforts by Hong Kong to attract crypto companies coincide with the current trend of tighter regulation in the United States. It is interesting to see how, in contrast to the ban on cryptocurrencies in 2021, China now seems to be showing signs of some opening up to the industry.
On May 23, a segment about cryptocurrencies aired on China Central Television (CCTV). It was striking that the Bitcoin logo and a Bitcoin ATM in Hong Kong were prominently displayed. Binance’s Changpeng Zhao noticed that this type of coverage has historically been associated with market increases.

- Google briefly teased the Pixel Buds A-Series with a (since removed) tweet.
- They’ll promise “quality” audio and easy pairing.
- Price, availability, and most specs are still mysteries.
Google’s launch strategy for the Pixel Buds A continues to be… less than elegant. Mere weeks after an inadvertent teaser, the tech briefly posted (and has already removed) a tweet prematurely announcing the Pixel Buds A-Series.
The social post said precious little about the Pixel Buds A-Series, but did promise “quality sound” as well as simple setup through the latest Fast Pair experience. The design is virtually identical to the existing Pixel Buds, just without the contrasting black and white colors. You won’t need a recent phone to use them, at least — the true wireless earbuds should work with Android 6.0 Marshmallow and later.
We’ve asked Google for comment.
See also: The best true wireless earbuds
Past rumors and teases have suggested the A-Series will be a more affordable alternative to the standard Pixel Buds. It’s not certain just what Google might cut (if anything) to keep the price down, as the current model doesn’t include active noise cancelling or most other luxuries from higher-end wireless buds.
The post suggests Google may be close to a more intentional debut, though. While nothing is certain at this stage, the company could use its virtual I/O 2021 event to launch both the Pixel Buds A-Series and its expected Pixel 5a 5G smartphone. If so, Google will clearly be focused on making hardware affordable at I/O instead of competing with the latest flagships.
Google asks Wear OS users to fill out survey with update expected soon
Google I/O is taking place next week where the company will announce updates and future improvements across its various platforms, operating systems, and online services. Android Central reports that some users on Android have been prompted to fill a survey to help improve Wear OS.
There has been much speculation about Wear OS and what direction Google may be steering the platform. Ever since Google’s Acquisition of Fitbit, it was rumored that Google planned to launch a Pixel-branded smartwatch, but that never materialized.
Scrolling through Wear OS App drawer on Skagen Faslter 3 using its rotating dial
In recent months, Wear OS has been seeing gradual updates to core features like Google Fit, and more recently, it received an update to the built-in Gboard formatted for tiny-screen input. Custom Tiles are expected to come with the Spring update as well.
Wear OS is expected to be a significant focus at this year’s Google I/O given the amount of time it’s been since Wear OS received a significant update. As of this writing, there is currently no replacement app for Google Play Music, which was fully retired last year and succeeded by YouTube Music, which still has no app for Wear OS.
It’s going to be interesting to see how Google will optimize Wear OS for Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon Wear 4100 platform.
Unannounced Realme Narzo 30 stars in hands-on video ahead of launch
Realme’s Narzo 30 family is so far comprised of the Narzo 30 Pro 5G and the Narzo 30A, but there’s a third member coming soon. This will be the ‘vanilla’ Narzo 30, which was already spotted in a benchmark last month.
Although we still don’t know exactly when this phone is due to become official, someone has already gotten their hands on a review unit, and promptly posted an unboxing and hands-on video on YouTube – of a phone that isn’t even announced yet. Here it is for your viewing pleasure.
The device comes in a blue Narzo box, and has a 6.5-inch IPS LCD FHD+ 90Hz display with 580 nits of maximum brightness, a triple rear camera system (48 MP main, 2 MP black and white, 2 MP macro), 6GB of RAM, 128GB of expandable storage (with a dedicated slot), the MediaTek Helio G95 chipset at the helm, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 30W fast charging support.
It runs Android 11 with Realme UI 2.0 on top, weighs 192g and is 9.4mm thick. This unit is in the Racing Silver colorway. Unsurprisingly, there’s a soft jelly case in the box too. The phone is made of plastic and the fingerprint sensor is embedded in the power button on the right side. A 3.5mm headphone jack is on the bottom.
Redmi Note 10S receives MIUI 12.5 update right before launching in India
Quick, let’s play a game of “which Redmi is this”? Can you name, off the top of your head, what the Redmi Note 10S has going for it that’s different than all the other Redmi Note 10 series devices? No? Well, it’s the one with the MediaTek Helio G95 chipset, if that helps.
It became available last month in specific markets, and is going to be made official for India on May 13. Now just a few days before that, it’s receiving the update to MIUI 12.5. It’s still going to run Android 11, of course, just with the newer skin on top.
MIUI 12.5 was unveiled for international markets in February, following a December announcement for the Chinese market, and since then it’s slowly started to make its way to more and more Xiaomi and Redmi devices. The pace still isn’t very fast, but it should pick up over the next few weeks.
The builds that are on their way to the Redmi Note 10S are as follows: 184.108.40.206.RKLEUXM for Europe, 220.127.116.11.RKLMIXM for other global markets, and 18.104.22.168.RLLINXM for India. This will either be preinstalled on units that will go on sale in India, or will be presented as a day-one update once you take the phone out of the box.
In case you need a quick refresher, the Redmi Note 10S has a 6.43-inch 1080×2400 AMOLED touchscreen, 6/8 GB of RAM, 64/128GB of expandable storage, a quad rear camera setup (64 MP main, 8 MP ultrawide, 2 MP macro, 2 MP depth), a 13 MP selfie snapper, and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W fast charging.

You do have to love it when retailers jump the gun on new hardware listings, as it gives us our best insight yet into what the hardware will look like on the surface and under the hood. That happened this week with Newegg, where it sent a Visiontek RX 480 4GB listing live way before the intended June 29 launch date.
Newegg quickly realised its mistake and pulled the listing from its store, but of course one of the internet’s speedy-fingered denizens got there first and screen capped the page, saving the specifications and other details in all their glory.
Although this is an AMD partner card, and therefore perhaps not indicative of what a stock RX 480 4GB will be like, all of the specifications listed line up with what we already know about the card. The only bit of new data is the clock speeds. These may or may not be the stock clocks. They could be overclocked, but the card’s sales pitch makes no mention of it.
The clock speed for the core was listed at 1,120MHz, boosting up to 1,266Mhz when needed. As PCPer points out, this equates roughly to the five teraflop mark that AMD said the 4GB version of the card would put out.
Whether this clock speed works out as the clock speed for all of the stock-clocked RX 480s, or if this is an example of an overclocked version, doesn’t matter too much at this point. The RX 480 is set to release in seven days – so we will find out for sure before long.
Although no price was listed for this “out of stock” part on the Newegg page, we know that the RX 480 4GB will eventually come in at $200, with its 8GB brother a little bit more.

You’ve seen this movie before. Or at least you know the plot: a new technology is starting to catch the eye, baffling those who doubted but exciting its fans, who promise to change everything. A wave of exaggeration and speculation raises it in the public eye, culminating in Super Bowl announcements that make the new technology seem completely popular and appealing, though still confusing to most normal people. Then the shock.
So yes. This was the first web bubble, in the 1990s, to appear in March 2000.
It also looks like it’s happening with crypto and / or “Web3” (the recent crypto brand change) right now. Over the last year, your friends who know nothing about technology have noticed NFTs, even if they can’t tell you. The 122 million people who watched the Bengals-Rams Super Bowl in February also saw ads from previously obscure cryptocurrency companies, such as FTX, backed by a celebrity with no obvious connection to the product. Label line: “Don’t miss the crypto”.
And now the fall: something like $ 1.5 trillion worth of value has been missing since last fall as cryptocurrencies have plummeted: Bitcoin is down 56 percent from its November high; ethereum has dropped 63 percent. Don’t even ask about Dogecoin. Even venture capitalists Andreessen Horowitz, perhaps the most prominent proponents of cryptography in technology, admit that we may be entering a “cryptographic winter.”
The big question for everyone who has invested in crypto so far (institutional investors, founders and start-ups and average people who bought a bitcoin or a digital cartoon monkey) is whether things are different this time around. We don’t have an answer yet.
There are many arguments on both sides. Here we have to keep in mind that crypto bulls strive to distinguish between blockchain, the technology based on a global network of computers that talk to each other and record transactions, and cryptocurrencies, the assets that this technology often generates. In theory, interest in the blockchain should not be tied to the price of the cryptocurrency; in fact, it is very much so.
If you believe that cryptography is falling along with the rest of the stock market and the technology market specifically, you can point to data points such as falling NFT prices. Or “downward rounds” of investment: private companies that are forced to raise money in bids that value their company for less than they were worth just a few months ago. This may be happening in BlockFi, a crypto trading platform. Less than a year ago, the company thought it was worth $ 5 billion; now investors are telling the company that it is worth $ 1 billion.
Or the fact that other cryptocurrency companies, including Coinbase, one of the cryptocurrency companies that splashed millions on a Super Bowl ad a few months ago, are making frozen contracts or even layoffs.
Meanwhile, some workers who were eager to leave their Big Tech jobs for Web3 startups a few months ago may be thinking about them. An executive at a private company without cryptography tells me that it has been much easier to recruit people like Google and Facebook than earlier this year, when everyone was targeting cryptography.
There is also a change in the general environment: a year ago, it was difficult to find many technology people willing to spend time publicly criticizing cryptography and the Web3. There are now a growing number of them, of Box CEO Aaron Levie to software engineer Molly White, who runs a site dedicated to cataloging the work and bugs of crypto and Web3 (I chatted with her recently at Recode media podcast.) See also: Joy in headlines like “Someone stole the boring ape from Seth Green, who was supposed to star in his new show.”
But if you believe that cryptography is going nowhere, you have your own data points: while Andreessen Horowitz talks about dark times in the near future, she has also just raised a $ 4.5 billion fund explicitly for investments in cryptography. That money has to be spent somewhere, and there are still a lot of cryptocurrency investments: Katie Haun, a former federal prosecutor who became a cryptocurrency investor and raised $ 1.5 billion earlier this year, just announced a new deal this week.
And yes, some people may be tired of cartoon monkeys. But that doesn’t mean they’re tired of NFT. One thing called Goblintown is the new heat, people tell me they spend time in this space, while I nod, though I have no idea what they’re talking about.
Meanwhile, Gary Vaynerchuk, the marketing / self-improvement guru who loves nothing more than the Next Big Thing, recently hosted a four-day VeeCon event on the floor of the Minnesota Vikings Stadium in Minneapolis. The only way to get in was to buy a NFT Vaynerchuk, and he tells me that about 7,000 VeeFriends owners showed up.
And a lot of people I talk to on Web3 and crypto insist that things aren’t as serious as they seem, and that they’re used to the prices of cryptocurrencies fluctuating wildly. It would be weird for them to tell me otherwise because they are bought. But that doesn’t mean they can’t believe it.
“This has been a cycle that has been widely talked about as a cryptocurrency failure. But when you’re in it, you don’t feel like it,” says Jarrod Dicker, a technology entrepreneur and executive who is now a cryptocurrency investor for the Chernin Group, an investment firm. specializing in media and technology. “I think a lot of these companies that are building or starting to build, have raised their capital, they have their three- to five-year plan, and they’re doing it.”
For now, at least, cryptography is still something that many ordinary people are interested in, for better or for worse. Brandwatch, a social media sentiment analysis company, says the social mentions of “crypto”, “NFT” and “Web3” have remained mostly positive over the past 12 months. According to Data.ai, download rankings for crypto trading applications have also remained fairly high.
But if we’re drawing parallels between now and the Web 1.0 bubble, it’s important to keep in mind that it didn’t deflate completely during the night of March 2000: it took a couple of years for all the dot bombs to explode. more stupid.
I was at that point, and I remember that the decline could be measured by the way the successive waves of layoffs were handled: the people who were fired for their point-com from the beginning received good compensation packages. (I remember several people telling me they were going to spend their “fun” payments on cooking school). But successive rounds of layoffs became less and less generous, and when companies closed their doors for good, employees had nothing because there was nothing to give them.
So even though I hate this coverage, I’ll do some coverage – we won’t know how bad and significant the cryptographic collapse is for a while. In the meantime, one of the things you hear from Web3 believers is that it would not be terrible for lame cryptographic companies to leave and leave the good ones intact. In this scenario, his company is Amazon, which survived the dot-com crisis and became … Amazon; other people’s lame companies are theGlobe.com, a flagship-like flagship that now only exists as a Wikipedia entry.
“Every cycle, when there’s a big bankruptcy, I think people who are building in silence are pretty ecstatic because a lot of the noise is removed,” says Tina He, the Web3 entrepreneur I spoke to earlier. this year when I was testing. to get my head around the hype.
She’s still building something called Station, which she hopes will be a LinkedIn for crypto workers, and she says she has a “super skinny” team of six workers and “a lot of track”. On the other hand, he says, the fact that other Web3 teams may be struggling will affect their project, which means there will be many Web3 projects and employees to follow up and connect with each other. So it can’t last forever without new money.
“We’re actually quite optimistic and idealistic about our progress,” he tells me before acknowledging that he may need to organize a “bridge round” to achieve a more lenient funding climate. “Even without that, we could last all winter, if the winter lasts less than two years.”

The big surprise at today’s Google announcement was the Pixel C, an Android tablet developed by the team behind the Pixel Chromebooks.
The Chromebook Pixels are powerhouses of speed and wonders of design — and they definitely had the prices to match those outsized ambitions. The same thing applies to the Pixel C. It starts at $499, but you’re also going to want to pony up for the keyboard, which costs $149. That’s pretty-good laptop territory, so does the Pixel C actually compete with a pretty-good laptop?
Well, sort of.

By Bruce Horovitz, USA TODAY
The federal government appears poised to take a far more aggressive watchdog role under the Obama administration over deceptive ad practices.
Dannon — part of the world's biggest yogurt maker Danone— agreed to pay a $21 million fine and stop making exaggerated health claims for two popular Dannon products under a settlement with the federal government and attorneys general from 39 states on Wednesday.
It follows Monday's $2.1 million FTC settlement with kids-vitamin maker NBTY over unsupported health claims and because the products didn't have the amount of omega-3 claimed.
FROM THE FTC: Read the press release
DECEPTIVE ADS: FTC says POM juice ads are misleading
"It's a shot across the bow that food marketers are going to have to stop using unsubstantiated health claims as marketing tools," says New York University nutritionist Marion Nestle. "The claims aren't about health, they're about marketing."
Yogurt is a $4.2 billion-plus business in the USA, with sales up 8% over the past year, says researcher SymphonyIRI Group. The two Dannon products cited by the FTC both contain beneficial bacteria know as probiotics. But, Nestle says, "Yogurt is just food. It's not a miracle. No food is a superfood."
The government says Dannon will stop claiming that one daily serving of Activia yogurt relieves irregularity and that DanActive helps people avoid catching colds.
"These types of misleading claims are enough to give consumers indigestion," FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz says. "Companies like Dannon shouldn't exaggerate the strength of scientific support."
In Dannon's case, some say, it's too little too late.
"Dannon's had so much television exposure of these claims that people will still believe them," says Katharine Paine, a corporate image expert. "They've already got the perception in the minds of consumers that this stuff is good for them."
The FTC charged that Dannon's ads were deceptive because it did not have substantiation. The FTC also charged that Dannon's claims that Activia and DanActive were clinically proven were false.
In one ad for Activia, actress Jamie Lee Curtis reassures viewers that eating Activia can help people who suffer from irregularities.
"I am proud of my association with Dannon, and I am reminded daily by consumers of the help that Activia has brought them," the actress said Wednesday via her publicist, Heidi Schaeffer. Curtis is still doing the ads and eats Activia regularly. Despite the settlement, Dannon was disputing some FTC claims on Wednesday. "We never made a claim that eating DanActive helps prevent colds or flu," spokesman Michael Neuwirth says. "We respectfully disagree."

text: IDFC Bank on Tuesday launched the biometric-based Aadhaar Pay payment system. At a launch event in New Delhi, IDFC Bank launched the Aadhaar Pay app – what’s being called India’s first Aadhaar-linked cashless merchant solution. Aadhar Pay service is for merchants which will enable them to receive Aadhaar-enabled payments bypassing credit and debit cards, pin and password. The biometric reader is currently available for Rs 2,000. The Android app, which enables customers to pay merchants, was in its pilot phase before this, and was trialled by over 1,500 merchants across 16 states.The IDFC Aadhaar Pay app was developed by IDFC Bank “under the guidance” of the Ministry of IT, NITI Aayog, Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), and National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI). It is available only to merchants, who are on-boarded via e-KYC. The bank in an emailed statement detailed the on-boarding process, saying an SMS link enables the merchant to download the IDFC Aadhaar Pay app on any basic smartphone. This phone will then need to be connected to an STQC certified Aadhaar biometric reader. To make payments, customers need to select their bank’s name and fill one field on the merchant’s phone – their Aadhaar number. The customer’s fingerprint is then used to authenticate the transaction. Customers themselves do not need a smartphone to complete the transaction, making the app most useful in rural regions. As for the merchants themselves, IDFC Bank says they will see benefits with the new app. The IDFC Aadhaar Pay app is part of the new AEPS payment railroad, and hence has no merchant discount rate (MDR) attached to it – thus, they won’t be required to pay the bank a transaction fee. IDFC Bank says it targets reaching of 50,000 to 75,000 merchant points in the next two years.

Arnell had been talking to WPP and Omnicom. Both companies expressed big-time interest in his new multicultural unit PASS and his partner Steve Stoute, the talented head of black music at Interscope Records.
One might see parallels between Arnell's business moves and his favorite sport, . He met Stoute at the TriBeCa sushi joint Nobu. Recently, he was spotted sharing a table at another restaurant with Wren. Several months ago, before Arnell left Interpublic, Adages was treated to a lively session with Arnell and Stoute at Nobu. Before they sat down at their own table-their regular place is directly behind the hostess-they spotted Donald Trump and bolted to his table. Later, Trump and his date hopped over to Arnell's table. "You wanna know about Peter," said Trump to Adages, "give me a call."
Arnell also has been spotted with Martha Stewart lately. The upshot? Arnell will be handling advertising and marketing for Stewart's Omnimedia, excluding the work TBWA/Chiat/Day does for Kmart and its Stewart connection. "They handle Kmart and we will handle Martha," says Arnell.
Arnell also landed a piece of the Chrysler business. What piece exactly? "Ideation, I'm doing creative ideas for the Chrysler brand," says Arnell. "The services he will provide are just what we're missing in the PentaMark deal," says Wren, who introduced Arnell to Chrysler before buying his shop. Omnicom's PentaMark handles the entire Daimler-Chrysler account. Doesn't Chrysler conflict with Maserati, a $10 million account Arnell won in April? A Chrysler spokeswoman says the automaker doesn't compete against them. Chrysler has the Viper, a $78,000 car; a Maserati costs more than $100,000. A Maserati spokesman says "We are comfortable with the situation."
The Big Time
There's a new band in New York, The Big Richards. Their new demo CD features tunes with insightful lyrics such as the following: "Since you've been gone, you know it's been so long. Why don't we figure out just where it all went wrong." Who are these budding rock geniuses? D'Arcy employees. Lead vocalist is Jenni Katz, public relations, bassist Adam Regan, group creative director, lead guitarist Brad Stratton, music producer, on drums Graham Woodall, EVP-exec creative director. Also on board guitarist Brian Jones, senior music producer at Bang Music.

Thanks to that, Layden has indicated that he believes that PlayStation 4 will "humbly" maintain its "dominance in the video game market" during the coming year.
The Last Guardian VR Demo is a fully standalone experience, and it's also pretty short. The original PlayStation action -dventure is getting revamped for a return on PlayStation 4 next year. These include The Last of Us Part II, Detroit: Become Human, Days Gone, God of War, and Spider-Man. The PlayStation VR Gran Turismo Sport Bundle deal is $199.99 and the PlayStation VR Skyrim bundle sells for $349. The update will be free, available early next year, and will allow you to play every track and mode in the game (which is a lot) in VR.
A new trailer was also shown for Soul Calibur 6.
Capcom has just launched the Monster Hunter: World beta for PlayStation Plus subscribers.
Putin undecided whether to run as an independent or not
Investments in Yamal LNG were put at risk after Novatek came under Western sanctions over Moscow's role in the Ukraine crisis. More than 95 percent of output from Yamal LNG for the next 20 years or so has been sold, mostly to the Asia-Pacific region.
Shawn Layden, President and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment America (SIEA) as well as Chairman of Sony Interactive Worldwide Studios, appeared on stage during the PlayStation Experience 2017 event in Anaheim, California. We got a bunch of new announcements as well such as the MediEvil Remaster that's coming and Soul Calibur VI that was revealed at the conference.
The book is wonderful - it contains such a wealth of information on PlayStation, it's games and basically everything you ever wanted to know! So that actually sounds really good, especially as it's unusual to see a game with such an emphasis on speed being reworked for VR.
Of course, PSX wouldn't be the same without a host of new trailers.

Years spent calling for China to recognise international patents appears to have borne fruit, though not as originally intended.
In 15 years of attending gaming trade shows, the events that unfolded at G2E Asia rank as a unique experience.
Macau-based LT Gameâ€™s patent action against companies exhibiting live multi-player products at G2E Asia was bizarre. Court injunctions, patent claims, customs officials, judges and show organisers bounced back-and-forth between stands at the Macau show, following LT Gameâ€™s claim that it has patented â€˜Live Multiple Games Systemâ€™ and its Paradise Jackpot System (Baccarat Side-Bet Progressive Jackpot). Both apparently have been patented in Macau, US and PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) countries.

A tourist takes part in activities of a local community. Responsible travel to natural areas, conserving the environment, and improving the well-being of the local people dubbed ecotourism is billed to be the surest approach. PHOTO | MAKOYE SAFARIS
By Adam Ihucha
Better days for poor communities surrounding Tanzania’s tourist circuits are in the offing if a proposed ambitious strategy for spurring the local economy is anything to go by.
The prospective strategy dubbed integrated tourism and local economic development (LED) is seeking an apt mode of transferring tourists’ dollars into the pockets of a critical mass of ordinary folks living adjacent to the country’s northern, southern, western and coastal tourist circuits.
UNDP Tanzania through its Green Growth and Innovation Disruptions project is in collaboration with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism, Tanzania Association of Tour Operators (TATO) and UNWTO supporting the preparation for the integrated tourism and LED strategy.
The blueprint aims at enhancing the recovery of tourism from the COVID-19 pandemic and identifying ways for both businesses and communities to benefit from the tourist attractions and to dedicate themselves to sustainable conservation of the assets.
It also seeks to capacitate all actors in the entire tourism value chains to become competitive, resilient and effectively integrated into the industry.
The strategy focuses on growth, poverty reduction and social inclusion as it promotes participation, dialogue and connecting people to surrounding resources for decent employment and quality life for both men and women.
“Clearly, one key aspect of sustaining the enormous benefits and contribution of tourism on the economy is to ensure local ownership and traction on tourism development strategies,” said Dr Josaphat Kweka, the CEO and Lead Consultant at Talanta International Limited which is preparing the document.
“That is, the sustainability of tourism assets depends significantly on the extent to which the surrounding local community appreciates and benefits directly or indirectly from its development or growth,” Dr Kweka told a stakeholders meeting in Arusha recently, stressing:
“A strategy for ensuring tourism stirs the local economic development is of utmost importance.”
Gracing the key players’ strategic meeting on the roadmap for the blueprint, the UNDP Tanzania Resident Representative, Ms Christine Musisi, underscored the need for involving communities surrounding the tourism circuits not only in conservation drives, but also in sharing benefits arising from the industry.
“As UNDP, we envision that the LED strategy can catalyse transformative change by enhancing forward and backward linkages within the tourism ecosystem through creating jobs, stimulating innovative business models, and contributing to livelihoods,” Ms Musisi said.
In developing the strategy, she explained, UNDP will collaborate with UNWTO and TATO, and will be guided by the government on how best the plan will be implemented once it is formulated.
Tourism remains at the centre of the Tanzania’s economy in terms of its contribution to the GDP growth, foreign currency, jobs and also plays an integrator role of connecting other sectors with the global economy.
In real terms, tourism is a money-spinning industry in Tanzania as it creates 1.3 million decent jobs, generates $2.6 billion annually, equivalent to 18 as well as 30 per cent of the country’s GDP and export receipts, respectively.
However, transferring dollars accrued from international tourists to poor people surrounding the tourist attractions has been a major challenge in the country.
For instance, lots of dollars are generated from Tanzania`s world-famous northern tourist circuit, but very little trickles down into the pockets of ordinary people living in its vicinity.
According to the SNV study dubbed “Tracing the Tourist Dollar in Northern Tanzania”, while the northern safari circuit attracts 700,000 tourists with combined revenues of nearly $950 million, only $171 million, equivalent to18 per cent, goes to communities through the multiplier effects.
However, analysts say cultural tourism is the best model for transferring tourist’s dollars to the poor people than any other model.
“Offer complementary products as unique as possible by making optimal use of local knowledge, cultural attractions – traditional healers, handicrafts, cuisine – cooking classes, chameleons, birds, snake and nightjar stories. Create win-win situations, focus on enhancing length of stay and local expenditure through new activities,” the UNWTO expert, Mr Marcel Leijzer, proposed.
The TATO Chairman, Mr Wilbard Chambulo, said the strategy should also focus on how to increase the number of tourists visiting Tanzania, as its multiplier effects will certainly touch a critical mass of ordinary peopleΩ

- Solid-state capacitive buttons no longer expected on iPhone 15 Pro
- iPhone 15 Pro will revert back to "traditional physical button design"
- iPhone 15 Pro is in EVT stage, still time to modify internal layout and design
- Mass production and shipments will not be affected
Apple’s next Pro iPhone lineup was widely expected to drop physical buttons in favor of capacitive solid-state ones that would either be swipe-activated or pressure-sensitive. This may not materialize, however, as Kuo explains that “unresolved technical issues” have ultimately led Apple to shelve its plans, forcing it to “revert to the traditional physical button design.”
The iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max are currently in the EVT development stage, adds Kuo. Apple and its partners should have minimal impact on planned mass production as “there is still time to modify the design.” Kuo did not clarify whether the mute switch is also expected to be retained in lieu of the reported “action button.”
Kuo explains that the recent development should significantly impact two of Apple’s suppliers. Cirrus Logic and AAC Technologies are set to miss out on revenue from orders for controller ICs and extra Taptic Engine modules, respectively.

One of the most hyped (and delayed) releases of Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) Beta software, now labelled as version 10.69, is still scheduled to be released on Saturday August 20, as Elon Musk has been promising.
However, the majority of Tesla owners won’t be receiving it for at least another few weeks.
In a tweet last night Musk explained this version contains “many major code changes.” As a result, they will be taking an “extra cautious” approach to the rollout, and only release it to about 1,000 testers on Saturday.
If all goes well and no major bugs are found, 10.69.1 will be released the following week, August 27, to about 10,000 testers. Following the same process, 10.69.2 will then hopefully be released to the remaining testers on September 3.
Keep in mind this is a best-case scenario timeline, and it could easily shift further into the future if any issues are found, something which has happened numerous times before with prior releases.
This version of FSD Beta, originally labelled 10.13, was first released to internal testers in mid-July. Musk has said it would be released soon several times, but each timeline has passed without a public release.
According to release notes leaked from an internal tester, there are a number of significant improvements coming in this version. You can read the release notes here.
There are many major code changes, so this will be an extra cautious rollout.
Releasing on 8/20 to ~1000 Tesla owners, then 10.69.1 next week to accommodate feedback & release to ~10k customers, then 10.69.2 week after & release to rest of FSD Beta.

PETALING JAYA: Slower economic growth is anticipated for Malaysia for the months ahead, even without factoring in pandemic concerns, according to the leading, coincident & lagging indices for January 2020.
Malaysia chief statistician Datuk Seri Mohd Uzir Mahidin revealed that the leading index (LI) increased by 0.1% in January 2020 from -0.3% in the previous month.
“Among seven components of LI, two posted rises namely, expected sales value in manufacturing sector (0.5%) and the Bursa Malaysia industrial index (0.1%),” he said in a statement.
On a year-on-year basis, the LI saw a slower growth of 0.7% in January compared to 1.9% in January 2019, which indicated a slower economic growth is anticipated in the months ahead.
Mohd Uzir highlighted that the index for January 2020 has not taken into account the internal shocks, especially the Covid-19 pandemic that have a direct impact on the economy.
“These pandemic effects are expected to be reflected in the index of the subsequent month.”
The rapid spread of the pandemic has resulted in an institution of a nationwide movement control order by the government.
“However, the mitigation measures undertaken by the government is expected to soften the impact of this pandemic to the economy,” Mohd Uzir added.

Creator of Wasteland 2 #BrianFargo doesn’t believe that people are sick of #funding projects on Kickstarter, only that not all project are meant to be funded.
Wasteland 2 launched its Kickstarter in 2012 hoping to raise $900,000, and eventually hit nearly $3 million in funding. Many other Kickstarters didn’t have as much luck. Renegade Kid’s Cult County, for example, failed to meet its funding goal earlier this month.
“I think sometimes some of the projects that have failed is Kickstarter doing its job,” Fargo told Digital Spy. “Which is saying, ‘We don’t really want that, or there’s already too much like it’. I think it worked very well for us, and it worked well for [Tim] Schafer, because it’s quite honest to say this game wouldn’t have existed without it, period, because we’re a middle-ground developer, we’re not two guys.”
Harmonix’s Amplitude, which was successfully Kickstarted last week, fits Fargo’s description, as does Keiji Inafune Mighty No. 9, which raised more than $3.8 million on Kickstarter. Both of them appeal to niches in the market that weren’t being served otherwise, but there’s less demand for such games with each successfully funded Kickstarter.
Quite honestly, this all fits well within the confines of games that suit a niche, but all of the games outlined here also have a history. In other words, they build up a following long before Kickstarter or crowdfunding was a “a thing”. So we really do have to give credit to all those indie titles coming on stream. It’s not just tripe-A game companies that are making in-roads, it’s those who are original and innovative. That is where the niche market exists.
As for the big money, bringing in millions through crowdfunding, that all depends on presentation, media presence, and of course being available online. Simple things, like a game webpage, Twitter, Facebook page, and the same for a developers own social media. Then making sure people understand the depth of what is being developed, which is huge.
At Linux Game News we see a plethora of new Kickstarters all the time. In fact we have been invited to report on more campaigns than we have in just introducing people to new or upcoming games. Why? It’s simple, gamers want to see something new and original.
As a further Brian Fargo example: “There was a Fallout audience that loved one and two, and they wanted something more like that than where Fallout 3 and New Vegas went,” he said. “Now if somebody came up with another one after us, it wouldn’t do as well, I think, because we would have been scratching that itch.”
Wasteland 2 will release around “the end of August” 2014, on PC, Mac, and Linux.
