Study: Asian Coastal Cities Sinking at Fastest Rate

Sprawling coastal cities in South and Southeast Asia are sinking faster than elsewhere in the world, leaving tens of millions of people more vulnerable to rising sea levels, a new study says.

Rapid urbanization has seen these cities draw heavily on groundwater to service their burgeoning populations, according to research by Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University, published in the journal Nature Sustainability last week.

“This puts cities experiencing rapid local land subsidence at greater risk of coastal hazards than already present due to climate-driven sea-level rise,” the study says.

Vietnam’s most populous urban center and main business hub, Ho Chi Minh City, was sinking an average of 16.2 millimeters (0.6 inches) annually, topping the study’s survey of satellite data from 48 large coastal cities around the world.

The southern Bangladeshi port of Chittagong was second on the list, with the western Indian city Ahmedabad, Indonesian capital Jakarta and Myanmar’s commercial hub Yangon also sinking more than 20 millimeters in peak years.

“Many of these fast-subsiding coastal cities are rapidly expanding megacities, where … high demands for groundwater extraction and loading from densely constructed building structures, contribute to local land subsidence,” the study says.

Sinking cities are not of themselves a result of climate change, but researchers said their work would give a better insight into how the phenomenon would “compound the effects of climate-driven mean sea-level rise.”

More than 1 billion people will live in coastal cities at risk of rising sea levels by 2050, according to the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

The IPCC says that global sea levels could rise by up to 60 centimeters (24 inches) by the end of the century, even if greenhouse gas emissions are sharply reduced.

4.4M Americans Have Rolled Up Sleeves for Omicron-Targeted Boosters

U.S. health officials say 4.4 million Americans have received the updated COVID-19 booster shot. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention posted the count Thursday as public health experts bemoaned President Joe Biden’s recent remark that “the pandemic is over.”

The White House said more than 5 million people had received the new boosters by its own estimate, which accounts for reporting lags in states.

Health experts said it was too early to predict whether demand would match up with the 171 million doses of the new boosters the U.S. ordered for the fall.

“No one would go looking at our flu shot uptake at this point and be like, ‘Oh, what a disaster,’ ” said Dr. David Dowdy, an infectious-disease epidemiologist at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. “If we start to see a large uptick in cases, I think we’re going to see a lot of people getting the [new COVID] vaccine.”

A temporary shortage of Moderna vaccine caused some pharmacies to cancel appointments while encouraging people to reschedule for a Pfizer vaccine. The issue was expected to resolve as government regulators wrapped up an inspection and cleared batches of vaccine doses for distribution.

“I do expect this to pick up in the weeks ahead,” said White House COVID-19 coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha. “We’ve been thinking and talking about this as an annual vaccine like the flu vaccine. Flu vaccine season picks up in late September and early October. We’re just getting our education campaign going. So, we expect to see, despite the fact that this was a strong start, we actually expect this to ramp up stronger.”

Some Americans who plan to get the shot, designed to target the most common omicron strains, said they were waiting because they either had COVID-19 recently or another booster. They are following public health advice to wait several months to get the full benefit of their existing virus-fighting antibodies.

Others are scheduling shots closer to holiday gatherings and winter months when respiratory viruses spread more easily.

Retired hospital chaplain Jeanie Murphy, 69, of Shawnee, Kansas, plans to get the new booster in a couple of weeks after she has some minor knee surgery. Interest is high among her neighbors, she said.

“There’s quite a bit of discussion happening among people who are ready to make appointments,” Murphy said. “I found that encouraging.”

Steady state

Biden later acknowledged criticism of his remark about the pandemic being over and clarified the pandemic is “not where it was.” The initial comment didn’t bother Murphy. She believes the disease has entered a steady state when “we’ll get COVID shots in the fall the same as we do flu shots.”

Experts hope she’s right but are waiting to see what levels of infection winter brings. The summer ebb in case numbers, hospitalizations and deaths may be followed by another surge, Dowdy said.

Some Americans who got the new shots said they were excited about the idea of targeting the vaccine to the variants circulating now.

“Give me all the science you can,” said Jeff Westling, 30, an attorney in Washington, who got the new booster and a flu shot Tuesday, one in each arm. He participates in the combat sport jujitsu, so he wants to protect himself from infections that may come with close contact.

Meanwhile, Biden’s pronouncement in a 60 Minutes interview broadcast Sunday echoed through social media.

By Wednesday on Facebook, when a Kansas health department posted where residents could find the new booster shots, the first commenter remarked: “But Biden says the pandemic is over.”

The president’s statement, despite his attempts to clarify it, adds to public confusion, said Josh Michaud, associate director of global health policy with the Kaiser Family Foundation in Washington.

“People aren’t sure when is the right time to get boosted. ‘Am I eligible?’ People are often confused about what the right choice is for them, even where to search for that information,” Michaud said.

“Any time you have mixed messages, it’s detrimental to the public health effort,” Michaud said. “Having the mixed messages from the president’s remarks makes that job that much harder.”

University of South Florida epidemiologist Jason Salemi said he’s worried the president’s pronouncement has taken on a life of its own and may stall prevention efforts.

“That soundbite is there for a while now, and it’s going to spread like wildfire. And it’s going to give the impression that ‘Oh, there’s nothing more we need to do,’ ” Salemi said.

“If we’re happy with 400 or 500 people dying every single day from COVID, there’s a problem with that,” Salemi said. “We can absolutely do better because most of those deaths, if not all of them, are absolutely preventable with the tools that we have.”

Digital Downloads Merchant Gembyte Gearing Up in Asia

The market for digital downloads is buzzing and the virtual goods platform Gembyte has set its sights on the Asian region.

Digital downloads merchant Gembyte gearing up in Asia

TALLINN, Estonia, Sept. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Estonian digital downloads merchant Gembyte is announcing that it will start accepting customers from the wider Asian market, including Japan. The company will first begin accepting customers in selected jurisdictions, while further expansion is expected to continue in 2023. Whilst expanding its global offering, the company itself and its day-to-day operations will continue to be domiciled in Web 3.0-haven Tallinn, Estonia.

Gembyte is an online merchant specializing in the sale of virtual commodities and digital downloads, geared towards the competitive e-sports market. Gembyte provides competitive prices based on discounted market value. All products are curated and sourced, then subject to individual resale. Today, the primary focus lies on Counter-Strike skins and items, but the offering is set to expand as the virtual goods platform gains momentum. Still, Counter-Strike is in a league of its own. According to the official Steam Charts, in early 2022 between 430,000 and 800,000 people played CS:GO concurrently across all devices.

Virtual economies on the rise

The release of Blizzard Entertainment’s World of Warcraft in 2004 and its subsequent huge success across the globe has forced both MMORPGs and their secondary markets into mainstream consciousness. In its wake, games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Fortnite, Dota and League of Legends have followed, each deeply intertwined with the digital economy.

In 2001, EverQuest players Brock Pierce and Alan Debonneville founded Internet Gaming Entertainment Ltd, a company that offered virtual commodities in exchange for real money. Today, real money commerce in a virtual market has grown to become a multibillion-dollar industry. Hundreds of companies have been enormously successful in this newfound market, with some virtual items being sold for several million dollars, such as Beeple’s NFT art project “Everyday” which fetched $69.3 million at the esteemed British auction house Christie’s in 2021.

Numerous studies have shown that the important markets for virtual goods are emerging markets such as eastern Europe, South America, and Southeast Asia. South Korea is estimated to have the biggest share of the global real money trading market, closely followed by countries like Japan. As such, Gembyte’s foray into Asian markets should come as no surprise: the virtual goods platform is simply following its target audience.

Gembyte.com is owned and operated by Gembyte International OÜ. The company was founded in 2021 and is headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia.

Akwel: RESULTS FOR THE HY 2022

Thursday 22 September 2022

RESULTS FOR THE HY 2022

AKWEL (FR0000053027, AKW, PEA-eligible), the automotive and HGV equipment and systems manufacturer, published its 2022 half-yearly results.

Consolidated data – in € millions	30.06.2022	30.06.2021	Var. in %
Revenue	491.0	487.6	0.7%
EBITDA	42.3	64.7	(34.6)%
Current operating income	17.7	50.0	(64.6)%
Current operating margin	*3.6%*	10.3%	-6.7 pts
Operating income	17.2	50.7	(66.1)%
Financial income	(10.0)	(0.6)	–
Net result (group share)	1.9	38.0	(95.0)%
Net margin	*0.4%*	7.8%	-7.4 pts

In the first half of 2022, AKWEL posted a consolidated turnover up by 5% on a like-for-like basis, while global vehicle production has remained down over the period. In a market that remains widely disrupted by supply limitations, the Group has achieved strong growth in North America (+18.4%).

The half-year results have been affected by the significant price inflation undergone by raw materials, components, energy, transport, and labour. These rises are partially and gradually reflected in sales prices.

Free cash-flow generation was €16.9 m compared to €44.4 m in the first half of 2021. The Group’s net cash position at 30 June 2022 was €105.7 m, compared with €98.2 m at 31 December 2021.

As part of the transition to new electric- or hydrogen-powered vehicles, AKWEL also develops structural components for electric vehicles, with examples including electronic modules, battery pack interiors, EV flaps, service battery casings, and cable ducts. As such, the Group will be able to seize the many opportunities linked to the rapid roll-out of electric vehicles.

In a global automotive market that continues to be very turbulent, AKWEL confirms its forecast of moderate turnover growth for the 2022 financial year, with the third quarter expected to bring good performance. The Group nonetheless remains cautious about forecasts for the sector, despite the fact that the first effects of sales price increases should be seen in the second half of the year.

An independent, family-owned group listed on the Euronext Paris Stock Exchange, AKWEL is an automotive and HGV equipment and systems manufacturer specialising in fluid management, mechanisms, and structural components for electric vehicles. The Group achieves this by relying on state-of-the-art industrial and technological expertise in applying and processing materials (plastics, rubber, metal) and mechatronic integration.

Operating in 20 countries across every continent, AKWEL employs 9,700 people worldwide.
