The two countries are attracting global manufacturing companies seeking to establish a base in Southeast Asia to weather geopolitical uncertainties.Aerial view on Amata City Chonburi, the company’s flagship project in ThailandMr. Vikrom Kromadit, Founder and Chairman of Amata Corporation Public Company LimitedThe story of Amata started in the mid-1970s, when Mr Vikrom, then a young graduate from the Taiwan National University, set up on an entrepreneurial journey in his native country, Thailand. After forays in import-export and business consulting, he entered the industrial estate business. Amata now manages full-service industrial parks in Thailand and Vietnam that are home to over 1,500 factory and commercial outlets.Amata’s clients include many Global Fortune 500 (2023) groups such as BASF, BMW, Bosch, Bridgestone, Brystol-Myers Squibb, Cardinal Health, Conch, Denso, Foxconn, GAC, Idemitsu, Magna, Mitsubishi Chemical and Mitsubishi Electric, Nestlé, PepsiCo, Posco, Sony, Toyota Tsusho, Toyota, etc.The five large industrial parks the company manages in Thailand—including Amata City Chonburi, the company single-largest estate—and the seven projects, including industrial parks and townships, that its affiliate Amata VN manages in all key economic zones of Vietnam, are no ordinary industrial estates.

But we also add facilities that go one well beyond that to make our parks liveable cities, ensuring a convenient and clean environment to all.”The total industrial land managed by Amata, which started in 1989 with a six-hectare pocket of land, now represents around 150 sq. km. across the region, including Thailand, Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar. The company has another equivalent amount of land in reserve, ready for future expansion.The development in Laos, in the country’s northern province of Udomxai, is located next to the Namor station of the Lao-China Railway line. This new smart and eco-industrial park focuses on renewable energy, agro-industries, as well as the automotive and electronics sectors.“In all countries where we operate, Amata’s focus is to live up to its name, which means ‘Eternity’ in Sanskrit.

It is our great honor to be the platinum sponsor of this event, and Dr. Kenneth Lam, Co-Chairman and CEO of the Group, has been invited to serve as the Chairman of the Organizing Committee. Together with other members of the senior management team, we joined numerous professionals from the capital markets, government agencies, academia, and the financial industry to explore ways to further enhance the economic momentum of Hong Kong.The forum was organized by The Chamber of Hong Kong Listed Companies, The Hong Kong Institute of Directors, and the Hong Kong Association of Registered Public Interest Entity Auditors Limited, with strong support from institutions such as the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Securities and Futures Commission and the Accounting and Financial Reporting Council.This year's forum is themed "How to Enhance Economic Vitality and Strengthen Competitiveness." The conference invited Mr. Qi Bin, Deputy Director of the Central Government's Liaison Office in Hong Kong Administrative Region, and Mr. Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR, as guest speakers.Mr. Qi stated, "Last year, with strong support from the central government and the joint efforts of various sectors in Hong Kong, the economy showed steady improvement. The central government intensified macroeconomic regulation and introduced a series of incremental policies, which also helped reverse the decline in the Hong Kong stock market last year."Mr. Paul Chan pointed out, "This week, the People's Bank of China and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority announced several measures to deepen financial cooperation, greatly enhancing Hong Kong's ability to connect with mainland and overseas capital markets." He also noted, "As long as Hong Kong continues to embrace reform, dare to innovate, seize opportunities, and effectively play the roles of a super connector and a super value creator, it can inject new momentum into the financial development of Hong Kong and contribute even more to the country's goal of becoming a financial powerhouse."Dr. Kenneth Lam delivered the opening speech at the forum, stating “Market progress does not solely rely on the efforts of the government and regulatory bodies. As market participants, we also bear responsibility. This is one of the important reasons we are holding this forum today. We hope to gather the wisest perspectives and richest experiences from the industry to jointly explore the right development path for Hong Kong, helping us rise and become stronger amidst challenges.”As an important bridge connecting mainland China with international markets, Hong Kong has long leveraged its unique position to become a global hub for capital flows. However, as the global economic landscape continues to reshape, Hong Kong's capital market is at a critical moment filled with challenges and opportunities. Against this backdrop, this year's forum aimed to explore how to further stimulate market vitality in a complex environment. Political and business leaders engaged in various sessions, including keynote speeches and discussions, to vigorously debate how to consolidate Hong Kong's core competitive advantages as an international financial center and deepen its important role in global and national development.About Quam Plus International Financial LimitedQuam Plus International Financial Limited (the “Company”, Stock Code: 00952.HK) is a Hong Kong based financial services group which is listed on the Main Board of the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - January 16, 2025) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "Military") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Agreement"), dated effective January 15, 2025 to acquire further claims surrounding its West Gore Antimony Project ("West Gore" or the "Project") to consolidate the mineralized area located in Nova Scotia, Canada (the "Transaction"). A historically significant antimony producer, West Gore produced 7,000 tonnes of antimony concentrate grading 46% antimony between 1914 to 1917, making a significant contribution to the Allied war effort during World War One until a shipment to England was sunk by a German U-boat and the company then operating went bankrupt.West Gore consists of four exploration licenses comprising 585 hectares located in Hants County, Nova Scotia, Canada, and the newly acquired ground adds 388 hectares under additional exploration licenses to the immediate northwest of the Project, which is thought to comprise the balance of the West Gore antimony-gold mineralized system and includes its historical mine workings. The Company has acquired a 100% interest in the additional claims for $235,000 from ExplORE Resources Ltd. ("ExplORE"), which is spread over two years and ExplORE will receive a 3% Net Smelter Royalty ("NSR"). The NSR buydown provisions include $500,000 on the first 1%, and $1,000,000 on an additional 1%, providing Military the opportunity to reduce the overall NSR to 1% at its sole discretion.The historical West Gore mines have a mining history dating back to 1883 and were a significant source of antimony during the First World War, most of which was shipped to England. Total production of gold and antimony between 1883 and 1917, the last recorded year of production, remains unknown. However, between 1914 and 1917, nearly 32,000 tonnes were mined yielding over 7,000 tonnes of antimony concentrate grading 46% antimony. The total amount of gold recovered up to 1917 was estimated to be nearly 6,900 ounces. Aside from minor exploration work in the 1960s, the 1980s, and again over the past few years, the West Gore system remains essentially unexplored in modern times.With the acquisition of the new claims on completion of the Transaction, the Company will gain significant coverage over the mineralized system including all the historical mine workings and known antimony-gold occurrences with additional ground along trend in both directions as exhibited in Map 1 below. This in turn is anticipated to enable the Company to approach this antimony-gold system in its entirety to unlock future value. All relevant data are in the process of being compiled into an integrated digital database, with exploration plans to follow.Map 1: West Gore Project ClaimsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10818/237404_6e1e7c83d40478cc_001full.jpgAntimony-gold mineralization at West Gore is hosted in graphitic and sulfide-bearing slates of the lower units of the Cambrian-age Halifax Formation that were deformed into a northeast-trending, upright, closed syncline and metamorphosed to greenschist facies during the regional Acadian orogeny. Mineralization occurs as stibnite, native antimony, aurostibnite, and antimony-gold alloys and oxides. Whereas the fold belt strikes northeast-southwest, mineralized structures trend northwest-southeast.The technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by Avrom E.
