Entering the new development cycle of China’s 15th Five-Year Plan, DFLZM will continue to implement its "Dual Engine Plan", targeting overseas sales of 155,000 vehicles by 2030 and accelerating its goal of "building another DFLZM overseas." To strengthen its global footprint, Dongfeng Forthing plans to add nine overseas smart manufacturing bases, 300 sales outlets, and 300 service outlets by 2030. This will shorten service coverage distances, enhance localized production and services, and drive the brand’s transformation from "going global" to "deeply rooted and sustainably growing overseas."

At the event, Dongfeng Motor Group unveiled its next-generation T1 New Energy Commercial Vehicle Platform. As the industry’s first fourth-generation 1,000V integrated hydrogen-electric platform developed through a scenario-driven approach, it supports multiple technology routes, including hydrogen fuel, hybrid hydrogen-electric, and battery-electric solutions. The platform is regarded as a "Chinese solution" for commercial vehicle electrification. Based on the T1 platform, DFLZM launched two new models: the Chenglong Yiwei 5 Super Edition and the Chenglong H7 PRO Hydrogen Edition, further expanding the Chenglong new-energy product portfolio.

The 2027 Forthing V9 also made its debut. Focusing on four key areas—comfort, intelligence, spaciousness, and safety—the vehicle features more than 20 upgrades, delivering a premium new-energy MPV experience. The Forthing V9 Camping Edition was showcased alongside it, creating a new market segment with its differentiated positioning. Designed for urban commuting, long-distance travel, and outdoor camping, it offers true multi-scenario versatility. Several popular overseas Forthing models were also displayed, attracting strong interest and recognition from customers.

DFLZM officially launched the "Her Haven" Women Truck Driver Care Program, establishing a four-dimensional support system to empower female truck drivers in the freight transport industry. Meanwhile, the company continues to support overseas vocational education and public welfare initiatives by operating the Luban Workshop project in Laos, providing employment opportunities for many outstanding students.

A Global Customer Recognition Ceremony was also held during the event, where three major awards were presented. Through user co-creation and deeper collaboration between government and enterprise partners, the ceremony highlighted the spirit of mutual success and partnership.

Driven by forward-looking technological innovation, market-oriented implementation, industrial upgrading, and social responsibility, the 10th "67 Brand Customer Day" showcased DFLZM’s transformation achievements. Rooted in Liuzhou and looking to the world, the company will continue to work closely with customers and partners worldwide to advance collaborative growth and embark on a new chapter of globalization.

A special highlight is Sun Group’s unveiling of its new development vision for Phu Quoc in the lead‑up to APEC 2027, presented directly to Korean partners and visitors.

From the first day of the fair, Sun Group’s booth has welcomed a steady stream of visitors. Throughout the four-day event, the booth has organized B2B and B2C networking activities, customer consultations, and introductions to tourism, resort, and aviation products. Interactive programs, including mini-games, souvenir giveaways, and tailored offers for the Korean market, have kept the atmosphere lively for hours, with a continuous flow of engaged visitors.

During SITF (June 4–7), travelers have the opportunity to receive a 20% discount on the base fare when booking Sun PhuQuoc Airways tickets via the airline’s website or app. The offer applies to the Korean market for one‑way or round‑trip journeys from Korea to Phu Quoc. Limited to 200 Economy Class discount codes, it is valid for flights from June 15 to October 24, 2026 (excluding peak periods as defined by the airline).

Visitors also have the chance to win attractive prizes through booth activities, including free round‑trip air tickets on the Seoul–Phu Quoc route (ICN–PQC) and resort vouchers at hotels within Sun Group’s ecosystem.

By combining destination promotion with airline incentives, Sun Group aims to further encourage South Korean tourists to choose Vietnam for their upcoming holidays, especially Phu Quoc, which is entering a new era of large‑scale investments in projects, products, and experiences all aimed at APEC 2027.

INDIAN ROCKS BEACH, Fla., June 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cyndee Haydon, Broker Associate with Future Home Realty and founder of the Sandbars to Sunsets Team, has been named among the 2026 Best Real Estate Agents in the United States by RealTrends Verified, which analyzes agent and brokerage performance data nationwide to spotlight the top 1.5% of residential real estate professionals.

RealTrends Verified is an annual ranking of America’s top real estate agents and teams in residential real estate, evaluated on verified sales volume and transaction sides from the prior year. Fewer than one in 300 Florida Realtors earn the designation.

Her full biography and transaction history are available.

“Buyers coming to the Gulf Beaches to purchase a vacation rental or Airbnb property need more than a Realtor. They need someone who knows which buildings allow short-term rentals, which flood zones affect insurance costs, and what the real operating numbers look like before they close,” Haydon said. “That specialization is what this recognition reflects.”

NEW YORK, June 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — For many people, neck tension can return by the next morning, even after using a traditional neck massager. SKG Health developed PS700 neck massager with a different starting point — not a feature checklist, but an anatomical question: why does neck tension keep coming back?

The answer, SKG found, is that the muscles often associated with everyday neck tension from screen time — the semispinalis and splenius beneath the trapezius — can be difficult for vibration pads, heat wraps, or roller-style devices to effectively reach. Reaching them calls for a different kind of mechanical motion: the lift-and-press stroke of a professional therapist’s hands. SKG designed PS700 neck massager, priced at $179.99, to bring that motion into a wearable device for commutes, desk breaks, or a pre-sleep wind-down routine.

At the core are dual biomimetic kneading heads driven by a 3025 brushless motor at up to 3,000 RPM, generating 23 mN·m of torque. The hollow-core silicone contact surface conforms to the neck’s curvature without pinching, tracing a 360-degree arc designed to deeper areas where neck tension builds, rather than simply gliding over the surface. Operating noise measures 45 dB — quiet enough for a shared workspace.

Heat comes from three sources simultaneously: 830 nm near-infrared light designed to deliver deeper warming comfort, 28 red-light LEDs across the contact surface, and an FPC heat film for consistent contact warmth — reaching soothing warmth in 3 seconds. The 10-minute automatic shut-off helps keep each session controlled, making it easy to incorporate into a pre-sleep wind-down routine.

Another standout feature of the PS700 is its audio system. Dual acoustic chambers create an immersive stereo sound experience, combining physical relief with mental relaxation through Bluetooth-connected playlists. Its 1,400 mAh battery delivers up to 120 minutes per charge, while the 0.59 kg compact design fits easily in a bag, desk drawer, or bedside setup.

PS700 neck massager is available now at skg.com and Amazon.

Nearly 20 investment funds posted losses even as Vietnam’s benchmark VN-Index reached an all-time high, exposing a widening gap between headline gains and underlying market performance.

VIETNAM INSIDER – Vietnam’s stock market may be celebrating record highs, but a closer look reveals a more troubling reality for investors. While the VN-Index briefly climbed to an all-time peak of 1,933 points in May, nearly two-thirds of actively managed investment funds failed to keep pace, and 18 funds remained in negative territory after the first five months of 2026.

The divergence highlights a challenge increasingly familiar to global investors: headline index gains driven by a handful of heavyweight stocks can mask widespread weakness beneath the surface. In Vietnam’s case, the rally was heavily supported by shares linked to major property conglomerate Vingroup, while many sectors struggled to attract sustained capital inflows.

Vietnam’s benchmark index closed May at 1,863 points, up just 0.5% from April despite reaching record territory earlier in the month. The broader picture was even less impressive, with the VN30 Index—tracking the market’s largest companies—falling 1.3% during the same period. Since the start of 2026, the VN-Index has gained 4.4%, while the VN30 remains down 1.7%.

Data compiled from fund reports shows that only three of 30 actively managed funds outperformed the benchmark during the first five months of the year. VNDAF led the field with a 9.3% return, followed by TVGF3 at 4.8% and TVGF4 at 4.7%. Meanwhile, only 12 funds delivered positive returns, while 18 posted losses—an increase from just 11 loss-making funds a month earlier.

The performance gap underscores the growing difficulty of active management in highly concentrated markets. Several funds managed by Dragon Capital ranked among the weakest performers despite holding significant positions in index-leading stocks. DCDS and DCDE both maintained exposure to Vingroup-related names such as VIC and VHM, yet still recorded losses of 6.5% and 6.1%, respectively, after broader portfolio holdings struggled. Retail giant Mobile World Investment Corporation, one of their major positions, fell more than 9% in May, offsetting gains elsewhere.

Even the market’s best-performing fund, VNDAF, illustrates how fragile performance leadership can be. Its year-to-date return of 9.3% remains impressive, but that figure has sharply retreated from 16.5% recorded just one month earlier. Several of its largest holdings, including NVL, VCG, VCI, and HHV, came under pressure in May. Property developer NVL alone dropped roughly 26% after surging 45% in April, highlighting the volatility that continues to define Vietnam’s equity market.

For international investors, the lesson extends beyond Vietnam. Similar patterns have emerged in markets ranging from the United States to India, where a small group of dominant stocks has increasingly driven benchmark returns while the average stock lags behind. Such environments often reward passive index exposure while making stock selection considerably more challenging.

As Vietnam enters the second half of 2026, investors remain focused on potential market-upgrade status, resilient economic growth, and improving corporate earnings. Yet risks persist, including foreign investor outflows, global interest-rate uncertainty, and geopolitical tensions. The real story behind Vietnam’s record-breaking stock market may not be how high the index climbed—but how few investors were actually able to benefit from the ride.

WASHINGTON, June 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) announced an agency-wide reorganization designed to modernize its organizational structure, improve operational efficiency to better serve small businesses, and strengthen accountability to taxpayers. By aligning employees around departmental expertise and management, the reorganization will reduce significant duplication across areas like technology, finance, and human resources. Alignment around centers of excellence will improve coordination and reduce unnecessary overhead, strengthening the SBA’s ability to deliver results for small businesses, disaster survivors, and taxpayers well into the future. SBA services and core functions will benefit as the agency shifts its focus from managing layers of internal bureaucracy to performance and service.

“The American people deserve an SBA that holds itself to the standards held by the small businesses we serve – with a relentless focus on quality, service levels, and efficiency,” said SBA Administrator Kelly Loeffler. “Last year, after reducing agency headcount by over fifty percent and returning to full-time, in-office work, the SBA delivered record capital to small businesses. We restored the agency to its founding mission, took decisive action to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, and rebuilt the agency’s operational and financial accountability. This reorganization builds on that progress to create a stronger, modernized, and efficient SBA that is better positioned to serve entrepreneurs, job creators, and disaster survivors while safeguarding taxpayer dollars.”

As part of the reorganization, the SBA is consolidating functions under their respective expertise-focused offices to drive operational consistency and align employees with similar responsibilities and shared objectives. The consolidations will break down internal silos, eliminate costly redundancies, standardize operational processes, and maximize resource efficiency, while empowering program offices to scale operations smoothly, accelerate decision-making, and reduce overhead. This includes:

• Centralizing disaster-related functions within the Office of Disaster Recovery to improve responsiveness, streamline recovery operations, and optimize service delivery for disaster survivors.

• Centralizing data analysts, economists, grants management professionals, and acquisition professionals within the Office of the Chief Financial Officer to create a more coordinated approach to financial management, strengthen internal controls, and support more efficient use of taxpayer resources.

• Centralizing information technology professionals within the Office of the Chief Information Officer to accelerate IT modernization, standardize technology operations, and improve efficiency across the agency’s digital infrastructure.

• Centralizing human resource professionals within the Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer to streamline workforce operations, standardize personnel processes, and improve administrative efficiency agency-wide.

• Centralizing attorneys and paralegals within the Office of General Counsel to strengthen agency coordination.

Additionally, the SBA is formally establishing the Faith Office and the Office of Rural Affairs to improve service delivery to faith-based communities, rural small businesses, and domestic manufacturers.

The reorganization builds on the SBA’s broader effort to create a leaner, more accountable, and mission-focused agency. In 2025, the SBA reduced its workforce by over 50%, cut roughly $300 million in annual spending, terminated or paused more than 120 contracts, consolidated nearly half of its leases, and reduced its operating budget by 33%. This reorganization continues that work by eliminating redundancies and wasteful spending while delivering greater value for taxpayers.

Vancouver, BC, June 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SalesCloser Technologies Ltd. (“SalesCloser” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SCAI) (FSE: MJ5), a pioneer in autonomous AI sales technology, today announced its recent entry into the global hospitality sector with the engagement of a new commercial customer   – a major hotel in North America that is part of one of the world’s ten largest hotel companies (the “Customer”).¹ The deployment will mark SalesCloser’s first commercial deployment in the hospitality industry and extends the platform from sales workflows into operational guest service environments.

The Company’s AI voice agents are in the process of being deployed in order to assist the Customer in automating after-hours room service operations, with a direct integration into the resort’s point-of-sale platform.

The deployment aims to apply SalesCloser’s AI voice agents to after-hours room service operations at the 270-room beachfront resort, automating an operational workflow that has historically required dedicated overnight staffing. Guest calls are answered immediately by a SalesCloser AI agent, which captures order details – items, modifications, room number, and timing – and submits the order in real time to the resort’s kitchen through a direct integration with the Oracle Hospitality point-of-sale platform. The integration is designed to deliver an automated, end-to-end overnight ordering workflow without manual intake.

The deployment is designed to provide consistent 24/7 guest coverage, faster response on after-hours service requests, and a lower operational burden during overnight shifts, while preserving order accuracy and the property’s service standards. SalesCloser believes this deployment demonstrates the platform’s applicability beyond traditional sales workflows into broader operational use cases where always-on availability, real-time conversation handling, and integration with important existing enterprise systems are.

“We see hospitality is a natural extension of what our platform already does well – conducting high-quality, real-time conversations at scale and connecting those conversations into the systems operators already use. SalesCloser intends to help hospitality operators modernize guest-facing workflows while improving responsiveness and operating efficiency.”The hospitality industry represents a meaningful adjacent market for SalesCloser’s conversational AI platform. Guest service operations – including reservations, room service, concierge, front-desk overflow, and after-hours response – share the same underlying execution requirements as the sales conversations the platform was built for: voice-first interaction, multilingual fluency, integration with enterprise systems of record, and reliable performance at scale. The Company intends to leverage this initial deployment as a reference point for further expansion into the hotel, resort, and broader hospitality vertical.

Wing Kai New Energy X QIJI Energy X C&D Hi-Tech

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 June 2026 – The 19th (2026) International Photovoltaic Power Generation and Smart Energy Exhibition & Conference (SNEC 2026) was grandly held from June 3 to 5, 2026, at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). Attracting over 3,000 exhibitors from 95 countries worldwide, the event stands as the largest and most influential professional grand gathering for the photovoltaic and energy storage sectors across Asia and globally.

During the exhibition, Mr. Yiu Wang Lee, Chairman of the Board of Wing Lee Development Construction Holdings Limited (“Wing Lee” or the “Group”, stock code: 9639.HK); Mr. Cai Huihui, General Manager of Wing Kai New Energy Technology Co., Limited (“Wing Kai New Energy”); Mr. Wang Yi, Key Account Manager of QIJI Energy; Mr. Xu Jun, Overseas Energy Storage Commercial Director of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL); and Mr. You Yuxian, ASEAN Regional Energy Storage Sales Director of CATL, jointly visited the exhibition booth of C&D Hi-Tech. The delegation engaged in in-depth discussions with the team led by General Manager Mr. Zhan Shengli, focusing on battery swapping station projects in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. By integrating multi-party resources, the teams successfully finalized and signed a Strategic Cooperation Agreement.

Through this signing, the three parties will join forces to address and resolve the industry pain points of overseas markets regarding regulatory compliance, engineering infrastructure, and supply chain coordination. The collaboration represents a deep integration of QIJI Energy’s cutting-edge battery swapping solutions, Wing Kai New Energy’s localized infrastructure and operational capabilities across Hong Kong and Shenzhen, and C&D Hi-Tech’s robust global resource allocation strengths. Moving from single-project development to an ecosystem of mutual win-win, this partnership will significantly enhance the delivery efficiency of green energy across Hong Kong, Macau, and the Southeast Asian region, setting a brand-new benchmark for regional zero-carbon smart transportation.

As a subsidiary of Wing Lee, Wing Kai New Energy has been rooted in Hong Kong since its inception while radiating its presence globally, deeply cultivating sustainable clean energy solutions. Addressing the acute pain points in the Greater Bay Area and Southeast Asian markets, where rapid fluctuations in energy prices have led to surging cost pressures for logistics distribution enterprises, Wing Kai New Energy will focus on urban distribution logistics battery swapping businesses in the future. The company plans to integrate site resources, infrastructure, and operations to fill the gap in regional infrastructure. We firmly believe that this cooperation will effectively bridge the cross-border green energy eco-link, accelerate the construction of a green energy service network, and contribute solidly to the realization of the “dual carbon” goals. Meanwhile, we sincerely invite more partners to join the Zero-Carbon Smart Alliance to jointly advance sustainable development.
