Is Japan Left With No Choice But a Last-Resort Measure Against Illegal Gambling?

(AsiaGameHub) -   Authorities in Japan are considering all available measures, including the potential implementation of website blocking, as illegal gambling activities in 2025 have reached unprecedented levels. According to reports from The Japan News, these proposals are currently under discussion by the Internal Affairs and Communications Ministry and have been recognized as a viable strategy for reducing participation in online gambling platforms. However, there are ongoing concerns that enacting these measures could contravene provisions within Japan’s constitution pertaining to the ‘secrecy of any means of communication’. Consequently, the Ministry views website blocking as a measure of last resort, to be employed only if other strategies prove ineffective in combating online gambling. Last week, the National Police Agency reported that enforcement actions were taken against 317 individuals in 2025, marking a record high since data collection began in 2018. Among these individuals, 221 were arrested in connection with online casinos across 158 cases. Online gambling is strictly forbidden in Japan. Nevertheless, data from the NPA estimates that approximately 2 million people engage in online gambling annually, primarily by accessing overseas websites. The total amount wagered by players is estimated to exceed ¥1.24 trillion (£5.76bn) each year. Is website blocking inevitable? The panel tasked with analyzing the implementation of website blocking has stressed that specific criteria must be met before it can be approved. These rules must be deemed necessary and effective, demonstrate a clear societal benefit, and the technical specifications of the blocking system must satisfy the panel’s requirements. Given apprehensions about potential government overreach, which would necessitate internet service providers monitoring all user access, the use of website blocking has been infrequently considered. Currently, such restrictions are exclusively in place to prevent access to child pornography websites. Joji Shishido, a Professor at the University of Tokyo specializing in constitutional law, informed the panel: “Blocking websites is the final action to be taken within the broader effort to eliminate the harm caused by online casinos. “If the measure is to be implemented, the government must adopt a significantly more serious approach to establishing the necessary infrastructure.” Last year, Japan’s government introduced new legislation aimed at combating unlicensed gambling by prohibiting the operation and use of such sites, as well as their promotion through banner advertisements, affiliate marketing, and social media posts. The report indicated that these efforts have shown ‘a certain degree of effectiveness’. However, it is evident that there is a demand for more impactful changes, which website blocking could provide.

Rivalry’s leadership team makes major resignations including c-level and co founders

(AsiaGameHub) -   Three of the four original founders of the Canadian esports company Rivalry have stepped down, with all three also serving in C-level roles. These departures occur during a period of considerable difficulty for Rivalry. The company suspended its operations in February as a broader initiative to cut expenses, which involved halting all player activity, implementing employee layoffs, and evaluating potential asset sales. Rivalry’s director exodus Rivalry, a business listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX), reported on Friday that five senior executives in total have resigned from its board of directors. Those departing include Ryan White, Kevin Wimer, Steven Isenberg and Demi Abidogun-Benson. White and Wimer established Rivalry in 2016 together with Chief Executive Officer Steven Salz. They served as Chief Technology Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively. Steven Salz, CEO of Rivalry – Source: Rivalry Steven Isenberg is the third and final co-founder to depart the company. According to Rivalry’s website, he sits on the local advisory committee for the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV). He also founded Urbanfund Corp, a real estate firm focused on Toronto that is listed on the TSXV, and was the founder and CEO of M Partners, an investment bank established in 2005. In 2023, Research Capital Corporation, another TSX-listed company, acquired M Partners. During its eight-year existence, the bank employed Rivalry co-founder and CEO Salz as an Equity Research Analyst from 2014 to 2016. The remaining two individuals who resigned were not among the company's 2016 founders. Abidogun-Benson has left her positions on the board and as interim Chief Financial Officer. She originally joined the firm in 2022 as a Senior Manager for corporate reporting, planning, and analysis, later advancing to Head of Finance in August 2024. The last director to resign was Stephen Rigby, the previous President and CEO of the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG). From 2010 to 2015, he acted as National Security Advisor to former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Rivalry’s struggle continues Rivalry has historically targeted Gen Z and millennial customers since it began, supported by product design, marketing, and content that leverages internet humor and culture. The company holds licenses in Ontario and Australia, but also operates in several international grey markets using an Isle of Man license. It introduced the casino.exe platform in March 2023, and iGaming has subsequently made up approximately half of its betting volume in quarterly reports. Its move into digital currencies happened even though cryptocurrency gambling is not permitted in Canada or Australia, its two licensed jurisdictions. The company continues to be referred to as a 'crypto casino' in Google search results, although its website has been offline since operations were paused in February. Rivalry started facing challenges on the TSX in 2025 when it was late filing its full-year 2024 financial statement. In April, it sought a management cease trade order from the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). The subsequent months involved significant cost-cutting measures, including a strategic review and the engagement of New York advisory firm XST Capital Group.

铝业遭遇供给冲击,中国宏桥稀缺性凸显

EQS via SeaPRwire.com / 2026-04-27 / 15:38 UTC+8 全球市场正在重新定价铝。过去,铝更多被当作周期品交易:需求好,价格涨;库存高,价格跌。但今年的变化在于,铝正在被重新看作供应安全资产。中东冲突推高能源和航运风险,霍尔木兹海峡扰动海外铝厂原料输入和产品输出;几内亚铝土矿政策变化,则让市场重新审视矿石资源的稀缺性。 这对中国宏桥意味着一件事:只要铝的市场还在,股价就很难真正跌得动。 宏观逻辑并不复杂。中国国内电解铝产能逼近 4500 万吨天花板,新增供给有限;海外产能又受电力、天然气、物流和地缘政治约束。需求端虽然有周期波动,但新能源车、光伏、储能、电网投资、轻量化和 AI 算力基础设施,仍在不断抬高铝消费的中长期底座。 国泰海通研报曾指出,2026 年铝市场供给仍将偏紧,并上调中国宏桥目标价至 43.2 港元;其逻辑包括国内运行产能接近上限,以及铜铝比高企推动“以铝代铜”需求。富途新闻转载的中金观点也提到,卡塔尔铝业和巴林铝业相继出现不可抗力后,LME 铝价一度升至 3418 美元/吨,并认为铝价上行和吨铝利润扩张带来重估机会。 宏桥的不同之处在于,它不是单纯跟随铝价波动的冶炼企业。它有上游矿源、氧化铝、电解铝和加工的一体化链条。 华源证券 4 月 25 日研报称,中国宏桥截至 2025 年拥有国内外氧化铝产能合计 2100 万吨、电解铝合规产能 646 万吨、铝加工产能 97 万吨。该报告还提到,宏桥作为赢联盟成员布局几内亚铝土矿,2025 年赢联盟博凯铝土矿出口量超过 7000 万湿吨,韦立国际预计 2026 年出货量将超过 9000 万吨;公司理论氧化铝产能自给率达 171%。 这组数据很关键。铝价上涨时,市场看利润弹性;供应链紧张时,市场看资源确定性。宏桥两者都有。 几内亚是这条逻辑的核心。五矿期货此前报告显示,截至 2025 年前 10 个月,中国累计进口铝土矿 17140 万吨,同比增长 30.11%;其中自几内亚进口 12743 万吨,同比增长 38.37%。几内亚已不是边际补充,而是中国铝产业链原料安全的核心变量。对普通铝企来说,这是风险;对有长期矿源和物流体系的宏桥来说,这是护城河。 华创证券 4 月 3 日研报给出了另一个角度。2025 年中国宏桥实现营业收入 1623.54 亿元,同比增长 4.0%;归母净利润 226.36 亿元,同比增长 1.2%,创历史新高。铝合金业务销量 582.4 万吨,毛利率提升至 28.5%;资产负债率由 48.24% 降至 42.25%。华创证券将其目标价定为 44 港元,维持“推荐”评级,并把 2026—2028 年归母净利润预测上调至 321.5 亿元、349.7 亿元、382.9 亿元。 股东回报也在托底估值。申万宏源 4 月 2 日研报称,中国宏桥 2025 年末期股息拟派每股 165 港仙,分红比例约 65.4%;年内斥资 55.8 亿港元回购 3.06 亿股并全部注销。该机构维持“增持”评级,并预计公司 2026—2028 年归母净利润为 322 亿元、344 亿元、378 亿元。 外资口径也不弱。AASTOCKS 援引汇丰研究报告的公开摘要称,宏桥 2025 财年业绩稳健但略逊预期,维持“买入”评级和 41 港元目标价;汇丰认为,在宏观不确定性下,铝在其覆盖范围内比铜和黄金更具韧性,宏桥以约 2026 财年预估市盈率 7.7 倍交易,股息率约 9%,估值具有吸引力。这就是宏桥股价“跌不动”的底层原因。短期它会受港股情绪、资金流和商品价格波动影响;但只要铝价中枢不塌,只要几内亚矿石和海外铝厂扰动仍在,市场就很难忽视宏桥的利润弹性、资源优势和现金回报。 更直接地说,铝价给宏桥业绩弹性,矿源给宏桥估值溢价,分红和回购给股价提供缓冲。 只要价格向上的逻辑还在持续,关注周期股就正当时。但宏桥现在的支撑不只来自铝价,还来自矿石、氧化铝自给、成本曲线和股东回报。铝的市场仍在,只要全球供应链还在为能源、航运和资源政策付出溢价,宏桥每一次被市场情绪带下去,都更像是一次重新买入的窗口,而不是趋势反转的开始。   2026-04-27 此财经新闻稿由EQS via SeaPRwire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php

6 Ways to Avoid Hidden Fees When Spending Overseas

SINGAPORE, Apr 27, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Travelling overseas often feels exciting until unexpected charges appear on your card statement after returning home. Many travellers from Singapore rely on overseas credit cards for convenience, rewards, and security, but international transactions can sometimes include hidden costs that are easy to overlook. From currency conversion markups to foreign transaction fees, these charges can quietly increase overall travel expenses. Understanding how these charges work can help travellers manage spending better and make more informed payment choices while abroad.Below are practical ways that can help minimise hidden fees when using credit cards overseas while keeping travel spending smooth and predictable.Understand foreign transaction fees before travellingForeign transaction fees are among the commonly overlooked charges linked to overseas spending. Many cards issued in Singapore charge a fee of around 3.25% per foreign currency transaction, which may not seem significant at first glance. However, on a holiday budget of SGD 4,000, this fee alone can add SGD 130 to total expenses without obvious visibility during purchases.Reviewing the fee structure of an overseas card before travelling can help travellers estimate actual costs more accurately. Some cards offer reduced or promotional foreign transaction charges, which can help manage overall travel budgets more effectively. Knowing these details in advance may also help travellers decide when card payments make financial sense compared to alternative payment methods.Consider paying in local currency instead of SGDWhen paying overseas, merchants sometimes offer the option to charge the amount directly in Singapore dollars. This feature, known as Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), may appear convenient because it shows the final amount immediately. However, exchange rates used in DCC transactions often include markups, which can exceed standard bank conversion fees.Choosing to pay in the local currency allows the overseas card network to process the exchange instead. Card networks typically apply more competitive rates compared to merchant-set conversions. Over multiple transactions, such as dining, shopping, and transport, this can help reduce unnecessary markups.Check card currency conversion ratesExchange rates used by card issuers fluctuate daily and may differ slightly from rates seen on currency apps or news platforms. While the difference per transaction might appear minor, frequent purchases abroad can still affect total spending. For example, a 1% difference on SGD 2,500 worth of spending can translate into roughly SGD 25 in additional costs.Reviewing how an overseas card calculates exchange rates can provide better transparency. Some banks publish their rate calculation methods, allowing travellers to estimate expected charges more accurately.Avoid overseas ATM withdrawals when possibleWithdrawing cash abroad using a credit card can trigger multiple layers of fees simultaneously. These may include cash advance fees, overseas ATM operator charges, and immediate interest accrual starting from the withdrawal date. In Singapore, cash advance fees commonly range between 6% and 8% of the withdrawn amount, with minimum charges around SGD 15.Using an overseas card mainly for purchases rather than cash withdrawals can help reduce these compounded costs. Carrying a modest amount of exchanged currency from Singapore or using debit-based solutions for cash needs may help travellers avoid high-interest situations linked to credit card withdrawals overseas.Watch for hotel and car rental pre-authorisation chargesHotels and car rental companies frequently place temporary holds on credit cards as security deposits. These pre-authorisation amounts can be significant depending on location and booking type. Although not permanent charges, they temporarily reduce available credit limits and sometimes involve conversion adjustments once released.Understanding how pre-authorisation works can help travellers avoid confusion when reviewing statements. Using an overseas card with sufficient credit limits may reduce the likelihood of declined transactions during travel. Checking release timelines with merchants can also help travellers track when funds become available again after checkout.Choose a Travel Credit Card designed for overseas spendingNot all credit cards function the same way internationally. Some overseas card options available in Singapore include travel-focused features, such as lower foreign currency fees, travel rewards, or complimentary insurance coverage. These features can help offset certain costs associated with overseas spending when used strategically.Comparing card benefits based on travel frequency, spending habits, and destinations can help travellers identify options aligned with their lifestyle. A well-matched overseas card may also offer added value through rewards or travel-related privileges, making international spending more predictable overall.Final thoughtsFor Singapore travellers, using an overseas card thoughtfully, alongside awareness of currency conversion practices and transaction structures, can help make international payments more transparent. With a few informed habits, overseas spending can remain convenient while reducing the likelihood of unexpected costs appearing after the journey ends.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte.

霍尔木兹海峡危机推动海湾航线转移,伊拉克240亿美元贸易走廊应运而生

(SeaPRwire) -   分析人士称,霍尔木兹海峡危机正推动各国努力开发海湾至欧洲的替代贸易路线,伊拉克耗资240亿美元的“发展之路”项目走在前列。 中东全球事务委员会分析师穆罕纳德·塞卢姆向Digital表示,这条连接伊拉克大福特港、土耳其再到欧洲的路线正“有条不紊”地推进,他称这是战时发生的“永久性”“变革性”转变。 塞卢姆发表上述言论之际,唐纳德·特朗普总统警告德黑兰不要让海湾局势进一步升级,并暗示美国准备采取行动保障该海峡畅通。 伊朗军队已在这条狭窄水道布设水雷,威胁到商业航运安全。截至周日,这条航运路线实际上仍处于关闭状态。 塞卢姆说:“伊拉克的‘发展之路’意味着,每一个经巴士拉运输、而非经伊朗控制水域通行的集装箱,都意味着德黑兰对伊拉克的影响力被削弱一分。” 他表示:“独立估算显示,‘发展之路’项目的实际总规模接近240亿美元,目前该项目正有序推进。” 伊拉克总理穆罕默德·希亚·苏达尼在2025年为‘发展之路’项目首段63公里路段揭幕,一期工程预计2028年完工。 多哈研究生学院助理教授塞卢姆解释道:“这个曾被伊拉克政府称为伊拉克治国旗舰项目的工程,如今拥有了区域层面的合理性,各国政府和金融机构都将其视为必需项目,而非遥不可及的愿景。” 他说:“苏达尼似乎正将伊拉克放在其地理位置本就注定的位置上——连接海湾、土耳其和欧洲的枢纽国家。” 但塞卢姆指出,其他区域基础设施也在同步推进中。 沙特阿拉伯的东西石油管道目前运行负荷已接近每日700万桶的设计产能,扩建计划正在评估中。 他称,阿联酋通往富查伊拉的ADCOP管道也已满负荷运行,目前正在讨论修建第二条管线。“土耳其的赞格祖尔走廊和中部走廊经高加索绕开伊朗,还需要四到五年才能投用。” 他补充说:“六个由海湾国家支持的陆上光纤项目也正在叙利亚、伊拉克和非洲之角建设中。” 伊朗于4月18日在霍尔木兹海峡重新实施封锁措施,将每日通航船舶数量降至仅个位数,战前该海峡日均通航量约为130至140艘。 包括禁航在内的这些限制措施近日遭到广泛批评,拦截行动最早可以追溯至2月28日战争爆发时,在美国和以色列发动袭击后,德黑兰首次开始封锁过境通道。 塞卢姆说:“霍尔木兹海峡对能源运输而言仍然不可或缺,但它已不再是默认选择。受战争影响,这一转变是永久性的。” 塞卢姆称,对于伊拉克走廊来说,它“具有潜在变革意义”,每年预计可带来40亿美元的过境收入,还能推动伊拉克从石油食利国转型为物流国。 他说:“土耳其将是最大的单一受益方。结合赞格祖尔走廊和中部走廊,安卡拉将成为连接亚欧的陆上桥梁。欧洲在2028年及之后将多一个陆上运输选项,但对当前危机没有帮助。这只是小幅降低了对不稳定的苏伊士-红海轴线的结构性依赖。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

DeepSeek V4开源催化Token需求升温 迅策科技季度ARR环比飙涨300%

EQS via SeaPRwire.com / 2026-04-27 / 09:00 UTC+8 DeepSeek V4的开源,正引发市场对大模型产业链的新一轮关注。业内普遍认为,随着开源模型能力持续提升、推理门槛不断下探,企业级AI应用落地正在全面提速。围绕智能客服、智能体协同、知识库问答、业务流程自动化等场景的Token调用,有望进入新一轮爆发周期。市场人士指出,在大模型加速普及的阶段,真正受益的并不仅是底层模型厂商。那些能够承接企业级高频调用、沉淀垂类数据并形成持续订阅收入的AI应用基础设施公司,具备显著的重估空间。迅策科技正是这一逻辑下的典型代表。公司深耕高壁垒行业十余年,构建了覆盖数据获取、清洗、标准化、实时计算到模型调优的全链路能力,将原本杂乱、异构、非标的原始数据"精炼"成大模型可直接高效调用的垂类Token。这套能力不仅门槛极高,且更依赖长期行业Know-How的持续沉淀,并深度嵌入企业核心业务流程,难以被简单复制。从最新业绩口径看,公司经营改善已开始反映在财务表现上。公司2025年业绩显示,AI收入同比增长105%,正开启第二增长曲线。2026年4月,迅策Token调用相关的年度经常性收入(ARR)季度环比飙涨300%,Token付费收入占比已突破5%,全年目标提升至20%–30%。除收入增长外,公司在客户场景的渗透也在深化。公开信息显示,其服务已覆盖资管、电信、电力、能源、机器人训练平台、商业航天、生物医疗等十余个行业。市场分析认为,这种多元化客户结构意味着公司深度绑定业务流程与实时数据处理需求,具备更强的客户粘性和商业化确定性。更重要的是,DeepSeek V4带来的影响正在被重新理解。开源模型迭代的核心影响,不是简单压缩产业价值,而是推动模型供给增加、应用开发门槛下降,促使更多企业将AI嵌入日常经营环节。随着模型能力持续普及,企业关注的重点将从"是否有模型"转向"是否有场景、是否有数据、是否有稳定调用入口"。从这个角度看,迅策科技的逻辑正在发生切换。市场此前更多将其视为"大模型概念延伸",容易受到基础模型竞争、价格战和开源冲击的情绪扰动;但随着DeepSeek V4推动模型进一步普及,公司所承接的企业级推理调用、知识调用、客服交互与Agent执行需求,反而迎来大幅放量。换句话说,模型供给越丰富,企业越容易部署AI,应用落地越多,垂类调用的价值就越高。据悉,迅策垂类Token的调用价格已达到10-100美金/百万Token,是Anthropic的十倍以上,并根据专业的使用场景在持续增长。若后续公司在ARR及AI商业化转化率上持续释放积极信号,市场对其估值锚点有望从“模型映射”切换至“企业级AI应用基础设施”。总体来看,DeepSeek V4开源带来的并非简单的模型替代逻辑,而是企业级AI普及提速、Token调用需求扩张及垂类场景价值提升的系统性机遇。随着AI收入保持高增长、客户结构持续扩展、应用场景不断深化,迅策科技在这一轮开源模型推动的产业升级中,正被视为最直接承接企业级Token需求增长的受益者之一。   2026-04-27 此财经新闻稿由EQS via SeaPRwire.com转载。本公告内容由发行人全权负责。原文链接: http://www.todayir.com/sc/index.php
