Adds Singapore Electric Vehicle Center of Excellence to its network in the region, covering every segment in the electric vehicles supply chain
Customized solutions in more than 10 countries across Asia Pacific
Safety and compliance at the core of solution design to cater to rising demand as Asia drives the electric vehicles sector forward

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 March 2025 – DHL Group (DHL), the world’s leading logistics company, is enhancing its end-to-end EV logistics and supply chain solutions for the Asia Pacific market, with the opening of three Electric Vehicle (EV) Centers of Excellence (COEs) within the region in 2024. These COEs build on DHL’s offering of customized solutions covering capital equipment for new EV-related factories, inbound-to-manufacturing (I2M), finished vehicles and aftermarket logistics in the region.

DHL supports the electric vehicle sector growth in Asia Pacific

“Over the next five years, Asia is expected to account for 63% of the new 115 million EVs sold worldwide.[1] A robust and compliant logistics supply chain ecosystem is needed to support this growing demand, and our EV Centers of Excellence in Shanghai, Singapore, and Indonesia serve as hubs of competencies and resources for the growing EV industry across the Asia Pacific , ” said Fathi Tlatli, Global Auto-Mobility Sector President, DHL Customer Solutions and Innovation.

EV COEs to provide a network of expertise in Asia

An EV COE is a center of knowledge and know-how, showcasing existing EV logistics expertise, capability, and resources and demonstrating DHL Group’s commitment to further enhance its EV offerings. These centers cover a wide range of solutions, offering modular and integrated end-to-end logistics across the EV supply chain.

The three EV COEs in China, Singapore and Indonesia are connected to a global network of COEs in 10 countries including Italy, United Kingdom, Mexico and the United Arab of Emirates.

“When people think of EVs, it is often associated with the finished vehicle itself. However, there is an entire complex ecosystem behind the EV value chain, which is crucial in orchestrating the process. That is our advantage as DHL Group, as we can offer customized solutions for every segment utilizing our expertise and our extensive global network,” said Audrey Gerard, Vice President of Auto-Mobility, Asia Pacific, DHL Customer Solutions and Innovation.

EV COEs will also be established in other countries with an existing EV footprint and expertise, such as India, Japan, Malaysia and Thailand.

DHL Group will continue focusing on the EV sector, with the New Energy sector identified as a key growth area in its Strategy 2030. As the sector matures, there is an increasing need to repurpose end-of-life EV parts and batteries or recycle them for raw materials.

“This segment will require complex logistics support, which we are exploring in the region leveraging solutions implemented in Europe and the Middle East networks as well as a market-leading cross-border road freight network in the ASEAN region,” said Tlatli.

Capital equipment and battery materials for gigafactories

For companies expanding their mining of EV battery minerals and battery manufacturing operations globally, DHL Group offers the management of the entire process, from capital equipment logistics to the supply of battery materials such as electrolytes and processed minerals.

Inbound to manufacturing (I2M) for EV assembly plant

Today, DHL is the preferred partner for the door-to-door storage and transportation of EV batteries and parts for multiple global vehicle manufacturers. Control towers oversee these solutions, managing the suppliers and tracking end-to-end temperature, humidity, and geolocalization data to ensure safety and performance. At the assembly plant, DHL supports in-plant logistics solutions, such as processing the arrival of material from vendors, storing, picking, and kitting. Air transport of smaller battery cells, modules, and critical components for urgent shipments is offered to prevent disruptions.

Finished EVs

DHL’s network of specialists has worked on electric vehicle-in-container solutions for mass market distribution, and air freight services for prototypes and critical vehicle shipments. Across 2024, DHL delivered soon-to-be-launched vehicle prototypes from China to Europe, including customized boxes, dangerous goods (DG) checks, and the management of export clearance.

At the destination, additional finished vehicle services for pre-delivery inspection and yard management have been implemented in several geographies.

EV aftermarket

DHL establishes and manages EV aftermarket networks for various Western and Asian OEMs, including regional and local part distribution centers in key Asia Pacific markets, such as India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. It has developed EV parts and battery-specific solutions, such as shared storage facilities, to cover requirements from compliance, import, storage, and time-definite deliveries to dealerships.

The new report ‘The State of Hong Kong Biodiversity 2025’ reveals over 25% of species in Hong Kong are at risk of local extinction

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 March 2025 – WWF-Hong Kong, in association with the Hong Kong Bird Watching Society, Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden, Outdoor Wildlife Learning Hong Kong, and local researchers, have released a new report titled ‘The State of Hong Kong Biodiversity 2025‘ today. This report is a comprehensive overview of the current state of Hong Kong biodiversity which evaluated the local extinction risk of hundreds of terrestrial and freshwater species, identified critical biodiversity hotspots, and offers science-based recommendations for guiding conservation decisions.

Thanks to its complex topography, diverse habitats, and the extensive Country Park system, Hong Kong is home to an impressive range of biodiversity. However, as our protected areas are concentrated in hillsides and coastal wetlands, many of the most vulnerable species and habitat types lack adequate protection.

Leveraging the expertise of 24 local ecologists and specialists, the study assessed the conservation status of 886 species across eight animal groups, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, freshwater fishes, butterflies, dragonflies and freshwater crustaceans. Alarmingly, the report reveals that 21 of the 886 assessed species have already disappeared from Hong Kong and over 25% (232 out of 886) are at risk of local extinction. Among the assessed fauna, birds and freshwater fishes are the most at risk groups, with almost half facing moderate to high risk of local extinction. Species dependent on lowland habitats, such as freshwater marsh, river, farmland and other open country habitats, are experiencing the most serious decline, necessitating urgent conservation intervention. Habitat loss and degradation, poaching and the spread of invasive species are major drivers for their decline.

The report is accompanied by the Hong Kong Terrestrial Biodiversity Hotspot Map 2025, which highlights 27 critical biodiversity hotspots outside the protected-area system. These hotspots, which cover merely 6% of Hong Kong’s land area, are home to about 95% of at-risk species. Yet, nearly 80% of the hotspots have suffered from eco-vandalism and nearly 50% overlap with planned/committed development. This underscores both the conservation significance of these areas and the need of immediate conservation efforts at these vulnerable hotspots to prevent further species decline or extinction.

The report serves as a key reference for government officials, statutory bodies, researchers, environmental consultants, and conservationists, highlighting the areas requiring attention to improve relevant policies, laws and regulations, and to conduct research and projects. It also calls on public to engage in conservation efforts of at-risk species and biodiversity hotspots. An immediate, collective effort, and societal commitment are imperative to prevent these at-risk species from local extinction.

Dr. Bosco Chan, Director, Conservation of WWF-Hong Kong said: “Our aim in publishing this report and the biodiversity hotspot map is to inform strategic conservation actions, elicit interest in the conservation of overlooked fauna and their habitats, and help the Government to enhance relevant policies, laws and regulations. The findings of this report underscore the urgent need for collective actions to protect at-risk species and habitats, which are concentrated in the unprotected lowlands. We must make and invest in concrete plans to protect Hong Kong’s most threatened biodiversity and wildlife habitats before it is too late.”

Dr. Carmen Or, Manager, Wetlands Research of WWF-Hong Kong highlighted that: “The last comprehensive species status assessment and biodiversity hotspot map for Hong Kong were produced over two decades ago. It is high time for us to reassess the state of biodiversity in Hong Kong to reflect changes in the environment and ensure our conservation actions align with species and habitats in the most urgent needs.”

Mr. Yu Yat Tung, Director, The Hong Kong Bird Watching Society added that: “Birds are among the most seriously threatened faunal groups in Hong Kong. The loss of lowland wetlands and farmland, along with habitat changes resulting from vegetation succession, significantly impacts both breeding and visiting birds, as illustrated by the habitats required by at-risk birds.

Dr. Michael Lau, renowned herpetologist in Hong Kong shared that: “Other than habitat loss, which impacts both reptiles and amphibians and has led to the extinction of Chinese Floating Frog, all native turtles are facing risk of local extinction, and poaching is the most serious threat to their survival.”

Dr. Alphonse Tsang, Research Assistant Professor of Lingnan University stated that: “With nearly half of the native freshwater fish species at risk of local extinction, threats such as channelisation and water pollution, and the invasion of non-native species must be tackled.”

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 3 March 2025 – Cushman & Wakefield has been appointed by the owner as the lead sales agent for the sale of the enbloc building including the whole student accommodation located at No. 33 Cooke Street/ No. 13 Lo Lung Hang Street, Hung Hom. The property has a total building area of approximately 7,501 square feet (Not verified.) and is currently listed at HKD 85 million with existing tenancies.

Acquired and renovated by a fund in October 2021, the property features three shops, generating around HKD 80,000 per month. The residential section comprises 50 rooms, managed by IRENT as student apartments. According to IRENT’s website, room rentals inclusive of management fees range from HKD 6,610 to HKD 9,240 and occupancy levels are high. There is potential to upgrade the rooms to all include an ensuite bathrooms, which would further enhance rental returns. Additionally, the property can be sold as a company, offering investors greater flexibility and convenience.

The location boasts excellent connectivity, with Ho Man Tin MTR Station just a 6-minute walk away, and both Hung Hom MTR Station and Whampoa MTR Station approximately 10 minutes on foot. The Hong Kong Polytechnic is about a 15-minute walk from the property and Metropolitan University is just a 19-minutue walk away. Situated in Hung Hom, it is adjacent to the new residential project Baker Circle developed by Henderson Land and the Onmantin development atop Ho Man Tin MTR Station by Great Eagle. The surrounding neighborhood features numerous shops and dining options, providing convenient amenities to meet diverse needs.

Mr. Alvin Lau, Director of Capital Markets in Cushman & Wakefield, stated: “In the 2024 Policy Address, the government reaffirmed its commitment to establishing a ‘Study in Hong Kong’ brand by increasing the quota for non-local students from 20% to 40%. This initiative is expected to attract a greater number of non-local students to pursue their studies in Hong Kong, resulting in a projected shortage of at least 55,400 university accommodation places. Due to the insufficient availability of on-campus accommodation, students who are unable to secure university accommodations will inevitably turn to the private market. This strong demand presents significant business opportunities for both private real estate investors and student hostel operators. As private student accommodations are specifically designed for students, investing in student apartments has increasingly become a popular choice. It offers investors stable rental income, making it an attractive option for long-term investment strategies.

Health – General Practice gives cautious thumbs up to primary healthcare boost

General practice is giving a cautious thumbs up to the government saying it will increase investment in general practice and help grow the workforce, said Angus Chambers, Chair of the General Practice Owners Association (GenPro).

“On the face of it, today’s announcement is good news for general practice and our patients, but we’ll need to look more closely at the package before celebrating,” Dr Chambers said.

“While general practice will welcome the focus on growing the numbers of GPs – which is essential to an accessible high-quality GP service – and we’re pleased to see investment in nursing, we are disappointed that the key issue of nurse pay parity has not yet been addressed.”

In regard to the announced 100 placements for overseas-trained doctors, Dr Chambers said while this was positive, retaining the current workforce should have equal priority to bringing in new staff.

“And we need to see the detail around the 24/7 digital service, as overseas experience suggests that telehealth has little impact on key targets for access and waiting times,” Dr Chambers said.

GenPro looks forward to working with the Minister of Health to support this investment achieving the right outcomes.

GenPro members are owners and providers of general practices and urgent care centres throughout Aotearoa New Zealand. For more information visit www.genpro.org.nz

To be attributed to Assistant Commissioner Jill Rogers:

Police are continuing with a critical incident investigation surrounding the events leading up to a man dying after being taken into Police custody in Ōrere Point on 2 March.

Today, Police are in a position to release some further information as those enquiries continue.

This was an incredibly fast-moving and volatile incident which unfolded over a short period of time.

We would like to acknowledge the impact that yesterday’s events will have had on the community and our thoughts are with everyone involved.

We are providing support to staff involved in this incident and there are now several investigations underway, including a critical incident investigation and a policy, practice, and procedure investigation.

As is standard procedure, the Independent Police Conduct Authority has also been notified, along with WorkSafe.

Clarification around Sunday’s events:

Police can advise that the vehicle sighted in Papakura on Sunday afternoon was a vehicle of interest in an aggravated robbery at a Takapuna bar on Saturday night.

That investigation remains ongoing. No charges have been laid as yet.

In an earlier release, Police advised the passenger of the vehicle challenged Police staff with a samurai sword.

We can now confirm this was in fact a metal pole.

Officers have then deployed taser and pepper spray however the man has continued to resist arrest and an officer has suffered a serious hand injury after being bitten by the man.

A Police dog was then deployed, and the man was eventually taken into custody but has quickly become unresponsive.

Medical assistance was rendered immediately and a medical helicopter was dispatched, however he was unable to be revived and was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Injuries to Police officer:

A Police officer suffered a serious hand injury after being bitten by the passenger of the vehicle.

We are continuing to support this officer after they underwent medical treatment at Middlemore Hospital and have since been discharged.

Further information around the deceased man:

Until the next of kin notifications have been carried out, further details regarding the deceased are unable to be released.

A post mortem examination will be carried out in the coming days, to establish the cause of death, and Police will make enquiries on behalf of the Coroner.

Footage at Ōrere Point:

Police are aware members of the public may have filmed the incident at Ōrere Point yesterday afternoon.

Given the man has yet to be formally identified, and next of kin not yet notified, we would encourage people not to share footage.

This is for the family’s sake, and there is a critical incident investigation underway.

Police ask anyone with footage to contact Police to assist with the investigation.
