With its focus on storytelling and providing end-to-end branding services, More Media has onboarded a diverse roster of clients such as Langsre, Emilia, Kei Dining, and Allino. Post acquisition, More Media is re-branded as Thoughtful Media Indonesia with its Co-Founder, Eugenia Agnes Gusti, appointed as VP of Business Development for Thoughtful Media to drive sales and onboard Indonesia clients onto the regional TMG digital advertising platform.Mr. Dennis Nguyen, Society Pass Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer/TMG Chairman, exclaims, "We are so excited to welcome Eugenia Agnes Gusti, Ursula Michelle and the rest of the More Media into our ever-expanding TMG platform.

By combining More Media's market leading design and branding capabilities in Indonesia with TMG's social commerce and influencer advertising focused MPN, we leverage our storytelling capabilities and amplify SoPa's upcoming loyalty offering. And with this acquisition, TMG now operates in Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia.

This trend comes as a result of the shifting inclination of brands from traditional celebrities to online influencers to endorse their products. Indeed, influencer marketing is quickly becoming an indispensable part of the mainstream branding strategies across organisations of all types."More Media is proud to officially merge with TMG. By joining forces with TMG's broad advertising network and SoPa's extensive ecosystem and large user and merchant bases in SEA, we are thrilled about expanding our business to fully become an end-to-end digital marketing company.

Korindo in its Transition to an Eco-Friendly Company

October 3, 2022

JAKARTA, Oct 3, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Environmental issues and climate change get increasingly highlighted as nature declines at unprecedented speed and level. Continuous innovations and mass movements become necessary to soften impacts from the crises.Korindo Group acknowledges the need to transform into a more environmentally-friendly company by creating breakthroughs in its various business units. An example of this is Cibubur Square Rest Area, with which the company tries to alleviate organic waste dumping issues. Operated by Korindo Group, the public facility includes a bioconversion waste processing plant with BSF (Black Soldier Flies) as its biological agent."Poor food waste management practices remain prevalent in many places, and these practices bring negative long-term impacts to nature and human health. That is why we built this facility," said Seo Jeongsik, Korindo Foundation's General Secretary.Aside from being environmentally beneficial, the bioconversion process is relatively safe for the surrounding area and community. Of all 800 fly species on earth, the Black Soldier Fly stands out for its non-pathogenic nature and the absence of disease agents.This project marks the foundation's second collaboration with Forest For Life Indonesia (FFLI). In 2018, they built a similar plant in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara.For years, Korindo Group has strived to be more eco-friendly, especially in developing its businesses. Its Paper Division has been awarded as an environmentally-friendly paper producer by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), due to its use of recycled product.As we know, recycling is one of the ways to solve environmental problems caused by deforestation. Yet, despite using recycled material, Korindo Group pays attention to product quality by upholding ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System.Korindo's Paper Division is one of the largest newsprint suppliers in Southeast Asia. Its mill is provided with DIP (Deinked Pulp) and paper machines with a total capacity of 330,000 MT per year. Boasting such a large capacity, the Division partners with a number of esteemed media companies, both domestic and abroad (Japan, United States, European countries). Korindo Group is also the region's only wind tower manufacturer, with more than 50 years of operation. The wind towers help industries generate environmentally-safe renewable energy.The factory has a production capacity of 500 towers per year, and received certification for ISO 14001:2000, ISO 9001:2000, and The National Board of Boiler & Pressure vessel DIN 18800-7 Class E Japan H-Grade. Today, over 3,000 towers (6 gigawatt) have been created and delivered around the world.Korindo Group, a leader across multiple industries in the South East Asian market, have a lot to be proud of. Over our 50 years of operation, we've built up our business by making a significant contribution to the country's economic development while simultaneously upholding environmentally friendly, future-oriented practices.

Spotless Laundry Tips from Bosch: Detergent, Water and Electricity Saving Made Easy

August 18, 2022

SINGAPORE, Aug 18, 2022 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - Research has shown that post-pandemic, people have amended their laundry habits, developed better hygiene habits and overall become more conscious of environmental impacts on our planet. Laundry will and has always been that never-ending chore - having said that the pandemic has brought it to a new positive light.More than ever before, laundry products have begun to play an essential role in maintaining one's health and well-being. Cleaning and laundering are part of self-care and caring for our family.An increase and change in laundry habitsDuring the various phases of the pandemic, it has been observed that people have been doing more and more frequent laundry - driven by a need for better cleaning and reassurance that they aren't carrying invisible dirt on their clothing. It's not only clothes that are being washed more or more often, since the pandemic, there is also an increase in washing household items more frequently (such as bedding, towels, etc.) to keep the household safe.On average, a regular 2 kids and 2 adults' household will do laundry 1-3 times a week and spend between 2-5 hours on it. With that, the increasing trend for more intelligent washing machines has been observed.Doing laundry is still a chore, but with the help of new, more innovative washing machines, can be simplified and even made more economical and environmentally friendly. It may be time to upgrade to a new washing machine that is smarter and will ensure you have perfectly clean laundry with every cycle.The iDOS Bosch Serie 6Doing the laundry may seem simple but in reality, precise detergent dosage plays a large part in ensuring perfect wash results. The latest i-DOS Bosch Serie 6 washing machine is there to meet any laundry needs. Check out these 4 Reasons why a Bosch i-DOS washing machine is perfect for your family household.Perfect wash results every timeUsing too little detergent, especially for heavily soiled laundry, can lead to unsatisfactory results - stains and odours may remain on your laundry after the wash. Bosch i-DOS washing machines provide a perfect clean by automatically dispensing the optimal dose of detergent and softener. Thanks to integrated sensors located inside the drum, this innovative feature detects the load volume, fabric type, degree of soiling, and water hardness of every laundry load, in order to determine the optimal amount of detergent and softener to dispense.No more allergies from detergent residueUsing too much detergent can result in traces of them remaining on your clothes, which may trigger irritation, rashes, and allergies for those with sensitive skin. By using only the precise amount of detergent needed, i-DOS washing machines give you clean, fresh laundry every time. For greater peace of mind, detergent residue can be removed effectively by using the AllergyPlus programme, which treats your laundry with a higher washing temperature and a longer rinse cycle.Gentle on the environment and utility billsContrary to popular belief, using more detergent does not necessarily give you cleaner clothes. In fact, excessive detergent usage may require longer rinses, resulting in increased water and energy consumption. With precise dosing to the nearest millimetre, Bosch i-DOS washing machines use up to 38% less detergent and saves up to 10L of water per washing cycle.Intelligent dosing technology - top up once for many washesYou only have to fill up detergent once that will last up to 26 washes. Instead of manually dosing detergent and softener for every wash, Bosch i-DOS washing machines have two separate chambers to store up to 1.3 litres of liquid detergent and 0.5 litres of liquid softener for added convenience. Simply fill up the chambers when the automatic alert comes on, and you won't have to refill them again for many laundry loads.All in all, you can be assured that each wash is intelligently weighed by automatic load detection, i-DOS will assess the dirtiness of the clothes and accordingly dispense water using the automatic programming that will determine the fabrics to be washed and most importantly automatically dose the precise amount of detergent needed for each load.Using the right amount of detergent guarantees that your laundry is perfectly clean and helps to ensure residue-free laundry. It also means you'll avoid skin irritation and allergies - just right for anyone with sensitive skin.From now until 31 August 2022, shoppers can get the Bosch i-DOS 9kg front-load washing machine (WGG244A0SG) at $1,399 (U.P. $2,899) and the Bosch i-DOS 10kg one at $1,599 (U.P. $4,199). For a limited time only receive two Persil Odour Eliminators 2.7L (U.P. $12.55) and two Persil Antibacterial Refills 1.5L (U.P. $6.75) thrown into the bundle.For more details on Bosch's products, please visit www.bosch-home.com.sg.You may download the complementing images from the virtual media kit here. https://preciouscomms.app.box.com/folder/169280237747About BoschThe name Bosch is known worldwide as a symbol of excellent quality and reliability.
