HONG KONG, December 10, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – CITIC Telecom International CPC Limited (“CITIC Telecom CPC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CITIC Telecom International Holdings Limited (SEHK: 1883) is pleased to announce that the ICT-empowered partner of its subsidiary, China Enterprise ICT Solutions Limited (“China Entercom”), Yingke Law Firm (“Yingke”), has earned industry recognition at the IDC China CIO Summit 2025 and IDC Future Enterprise Awards Digital Ceremony, where its pioneering benchmark project, “YingFaBao AI Legal Space Station” received the 2025 IDC China Future Enterprise Awards of Excellence - Future Enterprise of the Year. Dedicated to recognizing future enterprises who embrace the digital-first era, this accolade represents a milestone in the partnership between China Entercom and Yingke, and also serves as a testament to China Entercom’s role in fostering a digital and intelligent ecosystem to realize digital intelligence and globalization for businesses across industries. Ms. Sun Wen, Director of Global Board of Directors, Beijing Yingke Law Firm, receiving the award at the eventHeadquartered in Beijing and established in 2001, Yingke Law Firm is a global legal service provider and a co-founder of the Global Coalition of Think Tank Networks for South-South Co-operation. Since 2022, Yingke has consistently held the top position in The Global 200 ranking of global law firms based on the number of lawyers, and its global legal service network has covered up to 199 cosmopolitan cities across 104 countries and territories. As the digital era approaches, Yingke is accelerating its “Digital Intelligence Law Firm” transformation and upgrading, with the aim of establishing a “Yingke Global One-Hour Legal Service Ecosystem” . The development strategy of the firm is also evolving from geographical business expansion to digital-intelligence transformation.“2025 marks the tenth anniversary of the IDC China Future Enterprise Awards. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its deep integration across industries, we are witnessing an increasing number of enterprises transforming into AI-driven firms as they enter the era of digital operation. These enterprises are customer-centric, open to experiment and constantly enhancing their products, services and user experiences,” said Mr. Wu Lianfeng, Vice President and Chief Analyst at IDC China. “Yingke Law Firm is a remarkable example of such organizations. From strategic vision to practical execution, Yingke actively adopts new technologies with an open and inclusive mindset, driving transformation within the legal sector. To streamline transformation, suppliers of innovative technologies and solutions like China Entercom play an indispensable role. As a trusted enabler of digital-intelligence transformation, China Entercom strives to offer clients with value-driven and reliable technologies and solutions. Moreover, as a successful example of international expansion, the company’s extensive experience and expertise in globalization provide valuable support for Chinese enterprises in their journey of going global.”Extending warm congratulations to Yingke Law Firm on its recognition as an Excellence Award winner at the 2025 IDC China Future Enterprise Awards, Mr. Henry Ko, General Manager at China Entercom, underlined the key to “Redefining Global Legal Services with Digital Intelligence” by integrating China Entercom’s ICT capabilities and Yingke’s expertise in digitalizing and globalizing legal services. He added that this cross-industry collaboration has reassured enterprises in their pursuit of globalization. “Our collaboration with Yingke began in 2021, when the firm embarked on its four strategic pillars — globalization, professionalization, digitalization and carbon neutrality — to optimize its worldwide operations and services,” said Mr. Ko. “We look forward to taking this collaboration to new heights, empowering enterprises to expand overseas and creating a new paradigm of legal and ICT innovations.”In today’s ever-changing economic and social landscape, every industry is confronted with new challenges, and these changes also raise the expectations for China Entercom. As an innovative ICT service enabler, the company is committed not only to staying ahead of technological advancement and strengthening its core capabilities, but also to gaining deeper insight into industry transformation and accumulating practical experience. Mr. Ko emphasized, “As AI is applied profoundly in various business scenarios, law firms and other enterprises are demanding higher standards in global network stability, data security and intelligence. As a result, more clients are partnering with China Entercom to explore efficient, flexible and future-ready models of digital and intelligent services.”Harnessing AI to Pioneer a New Legal Service ModelAs technology rapidly advances and the macro-environment evolves, the legal services industry finds itself in the midst of fierce competition, undergoing profound structural challenges in traditional legal services models. The first challenge stems from global economic integration, which has sharply increased demand for cross-border legal services. Law firms are now expected to demonstrate stronger global service capability, cross-regional collaboration, and the ability to deliver tailor-made services. Secondly, the rise of the digital economy has given birth to new legal issues, raising the standards of a firm’s knowledge base and learning agility.

Washington, D.C., Dec 9, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI) released new research today examining how parents and children in the United States and Australia view social media bans for anyone under 16. The findings reveal strong parental support for such bans, in contrast with widespread concern from children who fear losing friendships and support systems that exist primarily online.The research arrives as Australia implements a national under 16 social media ban, placing global attention on how the policy will affect youth and their families. FOSI's study surveyed 4,000 parents and children ages 10 to 17 to understand how both groups feel about restrictions, enforcement, and the broader impact of social media on daily life.Support for the Ban: Parents vs ChildrenParents Support the Ban65% of Australian parents support a national under 16 ban58% of U.S. parents support itChildren Do NotOnly 38% of Australian children support a banOnly 36% of U.S. children support itChildren, who are most directly affected by the restrictions, are less likely to support them. This gap raises a central question for policymakers. Why do parents and children view the potential impact so differently, and what might be lost if children's concerns are overlooked?Connection Concerns: Children Feel the Most at RiskChildren Fear Losing Essential Connections53% of U.S. children fear a ban would disconnect them from important cause them to lose connections and support56% of Australian children feel the sameParents Show Lower Concern35% of U.S. parents36% of Australian parentsFor many children, social media can play a meaningful role in their daily lives, offering a place to stay connected, share experiences, and feel part of a wider community. Losing access to those spaces raises important questions about how young people will continue nurturing the relationships and support system they rely on. This cultural context along with the findings above highlights an emotional dimension of the ban that many parents may underestimate.Families are divided on the mental health impact of a banSome parents support a ban because they hope it will protect children's mental health. However, parents and children disagree on whether this will actually happen. A total of 52% of U.S. parents and 42% of Australian parents agree that a ban will help protect the mental health and well-being of children. Children are less convinced, as only 43% of U.S. and 33% of Australian children hold this view. These mixed views show that families see the mental health conversation as complicated and deeply personal.Screen Time Reduction is Expected but Not GuaranteedParents and children share similar beliefs about whether a social media ban would reduce overall screen time. A total of 55% of U.S. parents and 47% of Australian parents believe screen time would decrease, and nearly half of children in both countries agree. While reducing screen time is one of the most common arguments for the ban, it is important to note that not all screen time is equal. Many children use social media not only for entertainment, but for communication, schoolwork, creativity, and support. Additionally, many children, 64% in the U.S. and 59% in Australia, say they would spend more time on other digital platforms, including video games or text messaging, indicating the total screen time may remain the same.Many believe kids will find a way around the banParents and children are closely aligned when it comes to one concern. More than half of parents believe that children will find ways to circumvent the new restrictions. In the United States, 53% and in Australia, 54% of parents believe their children could work around the ban. When it comes to children ages 10 to 15 (those affected by the Australian ban), 45% of Australian children and 53% of U.S. children claim they could find a way around a ban.These findings reflect a common perception that tech-savvy teens will find ways to bypass age restrictions if motivated to do so.High support for teen accountsOne of the strongest areas of consensus across all four groups is the idea of creating special teen accounts with stronger protections and guardrails. A total of 77% of U.S. parents, 74% of Australian parents, 80% of U.S. children, and 77 % of Australian children support this approach. These findings suggest that families are looking for solutions that prioritize safety without removing social media altogether. The strong support for teen accounts indicates that both parents and children prefer safer, age-appropriate options rather than an outright ban."Children will be the most affected by this ban, yet only one third support it," says Alanna Powers O'Brien, Director of Research and Education at FOSI. "Many are worried about losing friendships and support they rely on every day. Their concerns should not be overlooked. As policies evolve, it is important that we listen to how young people experience the online world and ensure they feel informed, supported, and included in these conversations."For more information and to download the Children and Parents' Perceptions of Social Media and Classroom Smartphone Bans in the U.S. and AustraliaAbout the Family Online Safety InstituteThe Family Online Safety Institute is an international nonprofit organization dedicated to making the online world safer for children and families.

The survey involved 4,000 respondents, evenly split between the United States and Australia, including 1,000 parents and 1,000 children aged 10-17 in each country. Participants qualified if they or their children used the internet for at least three hours weekly. This survey was conducted from October 2nd to October 20th, 2025. No post-hoc weights were applied to this study, and the findings reflect the opinion of survey respondents only.This research is supported by Disney's Digital Wellness Grant Program and TikTok.Media Contact:Family Online Safety Institute (FOSI)Amy Bartkoamy@fosi.org | www.fosi.org | 480-201-6733SOURCE: FOSI Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

JAKARTA, Dec 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Devastating flash floods and landslides struck three provinces in Sumatra - Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra - in late November. According to data from the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB), the disaster has lead to 916 fatalities as of December 7, and cut off access to roads, bridges, and electricity, isolating the affected areas.Kuala Simpang on Dec. 6 after devastating flash floods in Aceh Tamiang District, Sumatra, in early December. A total of 916 people have died in the flooding that struck three provinces in Sumatra, the National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) confirmed on Saunday, Dec. 7. [PHOTO/Erlangga Bregas Prakoso/app/YU]In response, the Indonesian government moved rapidly to recover the affected infrastructure by collaborating with various parties, focusing on restoring road and communication access to ensure the affected residents can reconnect with their relatives and receive up-to-date information. During the emergency, the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs focused on accelerating the restoration of telecommunications and internet connections. Within 24 hours, 707 towers were back to normal operation from the 2,463 towers that had experienced disruption as of November 28 at 7:00 a.m. Western Indonesia Time (WIB).On Sunday, November 30, the Ministry's Telecommunications and Information Accessibility Agency (BAKTI), together with BNPB, the search and rescue (SAR) team, and the Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI), mobilized equipment to several locations, providing internet service at the command posts of BNPB and the National Search and Rescue Agency (Basarnas).The Republic of Indonesia Satellite-1 (SATRIA-1) has also been used to provide internet service in a number of disaster-hit regions, including Central Tapanuli in North Sumatra; North Aceh, Central Aceh, Lhokseumawe, East Aceh, and Aceh Tamiang in Aceh; as well as Agam and Padang in West Sumatra.Communication and Digital Affairs Minister Meutya Hafid stated that cellular operators reported that 95 percent of base transceiver stations (BTS) in West Sumatra had been restored, while in North Sumatra, the progress had reached 90 percent."For Aceh, 60 percent of the towers remain inoperable due to electricity issues. The government, along with operators and PLN (state-run electricity company), continues to work so that services can return to normal immediately," she said while leading a coordination meeting in Medan, North Sumatra, on Monday, December 1.Residents clear debris from their homes in Malalak, Agam District, West Sumatra, on Dec 8, 2025, after flash floods and mudslides in November lead to 916 fatalities. [ANTARA/Muhammad Zulfikar]Meanwhile, the Ministry of Public Works is prioritizing road repairs and the deployment of additional heavy equipment and personnel in collaboration with the Regional Disaster Mitigation Agencies (BPBD). To speed up the restoration of connectivity, the ministry has also installed Bailey bridges in priority areas.“Our focus today is on opening connectivity from the northern coast of Sumatra toward Tapanuli. The route from North Sumatra to the west is not yet open, thereby hindering the distribution of aid. We are deploying all heavy equipment, and if more is needed, we will bring it in from the nearest unaffected provinces," Public Works Minister Dody Hanggodo said on December 4.The government’s disaster response efforts have extended to the education sector. The Ministry of Primary and Secondary Education provided initial assistance in the form of school cleaning, as well as the provision of books and learning equipment. Furthermore, the government has prepared the replacement of damaged learning equipment, including interactive flat panels (IFPs).Meanwhile, the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning will carry out spatial planning evaluation in Aceh, North Sumatra, and West Sumatra following the deadly floods and landslides. This measure is taken to ensure that land use aligns with environmental characteristics and to minimize the risk of future disasters.Likewise, the Ministry of Environment will also study the spatial planning in the flood-affected areas to restore the ecosystem, aiming to strengthen the environment's carrying capacity.Aceh’s Natural Resources Conservation Agency (BKSDA) is deploying four elephants to help remove wood debris and restore access to homes after flash floods struck Pidie Jaya District in late November. The elephants - Abu, Mido, Ajis, and Noni - assist in areas inaccessible to heavy machinery, including Meureudu and Meurah Dua sub-districts. [ANTARA /Rahmat Fajri]BNPB, as well as other agencies and ministries, has received budget support prepared by the Ministry of Finance, the central government making the disaster response a national priority. The response measures include search and rescue, meeting the community's logistical needs, clearing road access, and restoring communication services and infrastructure."The central government is going all out to accelerate emergency response efforts. This covers five key areas: search and rescue, logistical support for the community, clearing road access, restoring communication access, and repairing electricity and fuel infrastructure," Head of the BNPB Disaster Data, Information, and Communication Center Abdul Muhari said.BNPB has actively deployed 40 helicopters, supported by helicopters and Hercules aircraft from TNI and National Police (Polri), bringing the total air fleet to 50 units. This air fleet delivers 25 to 35 tons of aid to district and city command posts, as well as to refugee pockets. In addition to helicopters, TNI personnel have been deployed to support BNPB’s operations by distributing aid to the refugee pockets on foot.BNPB, in collaboration with TNI, Polri, ministries, government agencies, regional governments, volunteers, and international partners, continues to make every effort to speed up search operations, the restoration of access and vital services, and the fulfillment of affected communities' basic needs.Editor: Arie Novarina, Copyright © ANTARA 2025 Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - December 8, 2025) - Doubleview Gold Corp. (TSXV: DBG) (OTCQB: DBLVF) (FSE: 1D4) ("Doubleview" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the completion of its 2025 drilling season at the Hat Polymetallic Project in northwestern British Columbia. This year's program marks the largest drilling campaign in the Hat Project's history, with 13,290 metres drilled across 19 drill holes, achieving a 100% success rate with every drill hole intersecting mineralization, while confirming the deposit remains open to depth and laterally.The 2025 campaign delivered major advancements in our understanding of the geology and dimensions of the Hat deposit, including the identification of a newly recognized mineralized horizon located beneath and adjacent the 2024 conceptual open-pit shell. Importantly, mineralization domains were better defined, existing data gaps were closed, and the Company's evolving geological and resource models were validated (see Figures 1-4, also available on the Company's website at www.doubleview.ca).Assays from holes H100 through H108 remain pending and will be released once received, reviewed, and interpreted in accordance with NI 43-101.Highlights of the 2025 Drill Season13,290 metres drilled in 19 holes, averaging 699.5 metres per hole — the largest and most efficient and technically productive program ever.A newly discovered deep mineralized horizon beneath the 2024 conceptual pit outline confirms significant down-dip continuity and expansion potential as mineralization remains open at depth and laterally in multiple directions.Every drill hole intercepted mineralization, demonstrating the strength and continuity of the porphyry system.H097, H098, and H099, previously disclosed, extended mineralization by 200-300 metres down-dip and up to 100 metres laterally, significantly improving the block model and geological interpretation.H099 returned 438 m of 0.40% CuEq, including 52 m of 1.02% CuEq, another one of the strongest continuous intervals drilled at the Hat to date.Newly completed holes H100-H108 were strategically positioned to evaluate depth extensions, lateral continuities, and untested model gaps. Core samples from these drill holes are being processed at the independent assay lab.Pending assays for nine remaining holes will inform updates to the Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE-2) and the ongoing Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Note: Due to timing issues, we may not be able to include all assay data in those technical reports.2025 work further advances Doubleview's understanding of copper-gold-cobalt-scandium mineral domains. The recently-announced potential scandium recovery achievements are a major milestone for the Hat's critical-metals profile.Farshad Shirvani, President & CEO, commented:"This has been a transformational year for Doubleview and the Hat Project. Our 2025 drill campaign successfully demonstrated the strength of our geological model, filled key data gaps, and uncovered an entirely new mineralized horizon beneath the 2024 conceptual pit shell. Every drill hole intersected mineralization, which is a testament to the quality and strength of our technical team, along with the robustness of the system.The discovery potential at Hat continues to expand, with the deposit remaining open both laterally and at depth. Combined with last year's exceptional drill results, our scandium recovery breakthrough, and the ongoing work toward the updated Resource Estimate and PEA, we are entering the next phase of project development with a high degree of confidence and momentum. I extend my thanks to our technical team, contractors, and shareholders for enabling the most successful drilling season in our Company's history."The Company is now focused on completing the assay review and disclosure for drill holes H100 through H108, which represent the final nine holes of the 2025 program. Assay results, when received, verified, and interpreted in accordance with NI 43-101 standards, will be announced and incorporated into the geological and resource models.In parallel, the Company continues to advance its Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), which is currently undergoing both internal modelling and external third-party review. The integration of the full 2025 drill dataset, including pending assays, is expected to materially enhance the confidence and robustness of the forthcoming PEA, supporting a comprehensive evaluation of the Hat Project's economic potential and paths to development.Figure 1: Drill plan and 2025 Extension around the 2024 Conceptual PitTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/277248_9efb9102e4f63b8e_001full.jpgFigure 2: 2025 drilling, mineralization extension at depth and around the 2024 conceptual pitTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/277248_9efb9102e4f63b8e_002full.jpgFigure 3: 2024 Conceptual pit shell in 3D and 2025 drill holes demonstrating the strategic exploration in 2025To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/277248_9efb9102e4f63b8e_003full.jpgFigure 4: 2024 Conceptual pit shell in 3D and 2025 drill holes demonstrating the strategic exploration in 2025To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/8003/277248_9efb9102e4f63b8e_004full.jpgDoubleview maintains a website at www.doubleview.ca.Qualified Persons:Erik Ostensoe, P.

- BIP Asia Forum welcomed over 3,300 participants, with the Forum’s first-ever “IP Go-Global Business Matching Session” supporting international expansion of Mainland enterprises.- Entrepreneur Day attracted over 12,000 visits, facilitating more than 350 business matching meetings to help start-ups and SMEs unlock new market opportunitiesHONG KONG, December 8, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – The 15th Business of IP Asia Forum (BIP Asia Forum), jointly organised by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, and the 17th Entrepreneur Day (E-Day), hosted by the HKTDC, concluded on 5 December 2025. Held concurrently on 4 to 5 December, these two flagship events connected leading IP experts and business leaders from around the world, including Hong Kong, Chinese Mainland, ASEAN and global markets. Through a diverse range of activities, the events examined how IP can drive business expansion, unlock new financing opportunities, and support start-ups in identifying investors and accessing new markets. This year, BIP Asia Forum welcomed over 3,300 attendees, while E-Day recorded over 12,000 visits. More than 350 business matching sessions were successfully arranged, helping solidify Hong Kong’s position as a regional IP trading centre and an international innovation and technology hub.BIP Asia Forum unlocks the value of IPWith a global intangible asset value estimated at USD 80 trillion, IP is increasingly recognised as a powerful engine for accessing capital and scaling business growth. BIP Asia Forum explored a range of topics, including IP Valuation and Financing, to examine how enterprises can leverage IP as collateral to secure funding. During the session, Lewis Lee, Founder & CEO of Moat Metrics said, “Never before have we been in a place where we are very close to being able to assess IP value in a systematic and high-fidelity manner. The advances in AI and data in the last 12 months have accelerated the development of this framework. I encourage the industry to continue pushing forward.”The plenary session “Propelling Sustainability with IP” examined how enterprises can leverage IP to strengthen their competitive edge amid the global shifts toward green transition and sustainability. As Krishna Singhania, Senior Intellectual Property Counsel of Maersk said, "Discarding the legacy model of 'IP is mine' and instead embracing flexibility is how we make changes. Exploring different models including lead-partnership, field-of-use ownership, joint ownership and government-funded projects ensures and preserves the competitive edge of each partner's core technology. Thus, we can meet our climate target of decarbonisation by 2040."To respond to growing demand from Mainland companies for overseas expansion, the Intellectual Property Department hosted a dedicated “IP Go-Global Business Matching Session” during the Forum. Local professional service providers, IP lawyers, and specialists offered one-on-one consultations covering IP registration strategies, application procedures, and patent claims drafting. Zoe Fang, CEO of participated mainland enterprise Sichuan HangWan Cultural Communication Co. Ltd said: "To align with our national 'Go Global' strategy, we will leverage Hong Kong’s international legal services to address practical cross-border IP issues by participating in the matching session. We plan to utilise Hong Kong's professional services to outline our patent registration and market expansion strategies, and to develop actionable plans for entering international markets.”Another participant from the Middle East, Founder and CEO of Voithy Tech Limited, Mohamed Orikat said: "Hong Kong serves as a crucial bridge to Chinese Mainland and APEC markets.
