The Oceanic+ App is Live! Meet Your New Dive Computer, the Apple Watch Ultra.

Apple launched their most expensive wearable item back in September alongside their Apple iPhone 14 devices. They launched the new Apple Watch Ultra, which was made with space age technology and is built to endure the most extreme conditions you can subject your body to. One of them is to go down to depths you will only go as a scuba diver.

According to Apple, the Watch Ultra can go in depths up to 40 meters. While there are dive watches and computers that can go deeper than that, you want to remember that the Apple Watch Ultra is no bigger than the regular watch and is also built as a watch and fitness tracker you can take anywhere with you. In that sense, the Apple Watch Ultra is a feat on its own.

While it was able to go down to 40 meters under water, and into the ocean for that matter, you could only get basic information from it like a regular watch. It did not have the right tools to record your depth, or how much air you have left, or how long you’ve dived. Until now, that is, with the Oceanic+ app.

The app was also announced when they launched the Apple Watch Ultra, so it should not come as a surprise. The app is not an in-house developed one (developed by Huish Outdoors in collaboration with Apple), that could also be why it launched later than the Watch Ultra itself. It is still 2022 though, so it is not like we had to wait years for it.

The Oceanic+ app basically turns your Apple Watch Ultra into a rather comprehensive dive computer. They say that the app allows the Watch Ultra to act as an advanced dive computer and robust dive planner. Of course, you can review all information post-dive as well.

The dive computer on the Apple Watch Ultra may not be similar to other dive computers you might have come across. They say that they have built the interface to be as intuitive as possible to be used on the Apple Watch platform. The interface is designed to allow users to quickly get information from the watch and dive stress free without making mental calculations during their dive. That also means that they need to cram and simplify as much information as they can into the tiny display that is the Apple Watch Ultra. It even gives users some form of directive to ensure their safety during the dive with “Stop”, “Go Up”, and even “Go Down”.

They have managed to integrate things like surface time, depth, and gas capacity into an interface that would be familiar to any Apple Watch user. On top of that, the dive planner gives you extra information like tides, water temperatures, weather updates, currents, and updated information uploaded by other users. It even tracks your GPS location, so you know where you are in your dives. You can even tell if you have a notification from the Apple Watch Ultra in the water with the Watch vibrating. They say you can even feel the vibration through a 7mm thick wetsuit. Haptic feedback, according to the developers, is a better way for your watch to communicate with you under water.

The Oceanic+ app is now available for the Apple Watch Ultra via the App Store. Of course, there is a companion app for your iPhone as well where you can view all sorts of information from your Apple Watch post-dive. The Apple Watch Ultra will set you back from MYR 3,799 onward, which is a lot of money for an Apple Watch. Then again, a dive computer will set you back just as much or more.

GWM Malaysia Launches the ORA GOOD CAT – Another EV for Malaysian Roads

EVs in Malaysia is not necessarily a new idea. Industry players like BMW was keen in introducing their i3 and even i8 models into Malaysia. To be fair, the i3 and i8 were hybrid vehicles. They introduced the 13s later, which went full electric. BMW also had their wildly popular 330e, and 530e hybrid models. Mercedes-Benz had limited success when they introduced their C350e, and E350e plug-in hybrid models later. Even Volvo enjoyed some success with their top-of-the-line XC90 plug-in hybrid. Not to mention, Nissan kick-started the whole electric journey with their Nissan Leaf, officially available in Malaysia.

In any case, it seems like Malaysia is ready for another EV. At least that is what GWM (Great Wall Motors) thinks with their latest ORA GOOD CAT. It is, in the current state of writing, also the most affordable EV you can find in Malaysia today.

When we say it is the most affordable in Malaysia, you do want to take it with a pinch of salt still. It will still set you back MYR 139,800 onward. That starting price undercuts Nissan’s offering by about MYR 40,000. Even at the top, it still sits MYR 10,000 less than the Nissan Leaf.

ORA GOOD CAT 01

What you get for the money though is rather impressive. You get up to 500km in range if you go for the 500 Ultra model. For MYR 30,000 less you get up to 400km in range, which is still an impressive feat in an electric car. Both are also more than what you get from a Nissan Leaf, its closest competition in our opinions.

The motor still gives you up to 143PS, which is plenty for Malaysian commuting. That silent powertrain will get the ORA GOOD CAT going at a top speed of 152km/h, still well over the national speed limit. They did not quote its 0-100km/h time though.

Still, you get to choose between Normal, Sport, Eco, Eco+, and Auto driving modes to suit your driving style and moods. It is not all about driving dynamics either with the ORA GOOD CAT. You get intelligent parking system to assist you in three types of parking modes. To ensure that you are always safe on the road, GWM put cameras at every corner of the vehicle for 360-degree coverage and wisdom dodge system that detects large vehicles and even assist in avoiding them. It also offers auto emergency braking system, just for an added layer of safety.

ORA GOOD CAT 09

Inside, it feels more like a laptop than a car. There is a 7-inch cluster display that greets you when you enter the car. That 7-inch cluster is extended to meet a 10.25-inch touch sensitive display that controls the vehicle’s multimedia systems that is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Instead of a gear lever, you select your drive using a rotary knob in the center console. It even has an electronically controlled panoramic sunroof for even more interior light and that spacious feel. At the rear, your leather seats can be folded down to extend its storage to 858 liters.

The biggest problem with current EV technology is its ‘refueling’ or charging periods. With a regular AC port at your home, you can charge your car in about 8 -10 hours, depending on the size of your battery. With a fast charger, you get to charge your car fully within 2 hours, neat.

Being tech savvy does not mean that you must sacrifice sense when buying a car this high-tech. For its price, GWM has you covered extensively. If you get your ORA GOOD CAT in a package, GWM offers up to 150,000 km or 5 years warranty. Your battery is covered separately with up to 8 years or 180,000 km. While EVs are nearly free of extra maintenance services required by internal combustion engines, GWM offers your ORA GOOD CAT with five times free service labour for when maintenance is required. At the same time, GWM is even giving away a portable charger and home charger for your car.

  • ORA GOOD CAT 01
  • ORA GOOD CAT 11
  • ORA GOOD CAT 10
  • ORA GOOD CAT 09
  • ORA GOOD CAT 08
  • ORA GOOD CAT 07
  • ORA GOOD CAT 06
  • ORA GOOD CAT 05
  • ORA GOOD CAT 04
  • ORA GOOD CAT 03
  • ORA GOOD CAT 02

The ORA GOOD CAT is now available in Malaysia, as mentioned, starts at MYR 139,800 for the 400 Pro option and MYR 169,800 for the 500 Ultra variant. The car has been in pre-order period for the past 3 weeks and is now officially launched. You can expect to see one on the roads soon as they are already shipping the EV to owners. You can request for a test-drive the ORA GOOD CAT at any GWM dealerships near you. More information on the ORA GOOD CAT is available on their website.

CGTN: China, Mongolia inject impetus into ties through three engines

BEIJING, Nov. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Mongolian President Ukhnaagiin Khurelsuh is paying a state visit to China just two days after the Zuunbayan-Khangi railway, the third railway to connect Mongolia with China, started operations on November 25.

Apart from boosting connectivity, the two neighbors joined hands to fight the COVID-19 epidemic by gifting one another with sheep and tea as well as deepened cooperation and exchanges in various fields.

The two countries have set a good example for state-to-state relations, Chinese President Xi Jinping noted on Monday during his meeting with President Khurelsuh.

In the face of the rising instability and uncertainty in the international environment, China is willing to work with the Mongolian side to build a community with a shared future and promote the bilateral comprehensive strategic partnership so as to better benefit the people of both countries, Xi vowed.

Three engines

Xi urged the two sides to deepen the three alignments between the Belt and Road Initiative and Mongolia’s Prairie Road development strategy, the Global Development Initiative and Mongolia’s New Revival Policy, and China’s “two-stage” strategic plan and Mongolia’s long-term development policy, so as to create three engines for further development of bilateral relations.

In 2013, Xi proposed the Belt and Road Initiative to improve regional connectivity and economic integration. The Prairie Road development strategy, an economic plan introduced by Mongolia, aims to boost trade with neighboring markets.

Mongolia’s New Revival Policy covers comprehensive reforms in the areas of port, energy, industry and green development, among others. While Xi on Monday voiced China’s willingness to deepen bilateral cooperation in areas such as economics and trade, energy and mining, connectivity, information technology and deep processing of livestock products.

Xi said China supports Mongolia’s “Planting One Billion Trees” plan and is willing to explore the possibility with the Mongolian side of setting up a Sino-Mongolian cooperation center for desertification control.

The Chinese president also called for promoting the construction of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor and the project of laying the ChinaRussia gas pipeline traversing Mongolia.

The first ChinaEurope freight train from Jinzhou Port in northeast China’s Liaoning Province to Helsinki, Finland, via Choibalsan City in Mongolia, was launched in August this year, which is in line with the construction of the China-Mongolia-Russia Economic Corridor.

Exceeding $10 billion

As China is pursuing national rejuvenation by following the Chinese path to modernization, Xi told Khurelsuh that China will not only achieve own prosperity and development but will also deliver more development dividends to its neighbors and the world.

China has been Mongolia’s top investment source and trade partner for 18 consecutive years. Last year, the trade volume exceed $10 billion for the first time.

Total trade between China and Mongolia accounts for more than 60 percent of Mongolia’s foreign trade volume, according to data from the Inner Mongolia Academy of Social Sciences.

Customs data also showed that bilateral trade hit $9.68 billion in the first 10 months of this year. 

Join efforts for world peace, development

The two leaders agreed on Monday to make joint efforts for world peace and development.

The Chinese president urged the two sides to team up to foster a new type of international relations and contribute to the building of a community with shared future for mankind.

China and Mongolia are both developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region and have extensive common interests in international and regional affairs, Xi pointed out, adding China is willing to coordinate closely with the Mongolian side to jointly defend genuine multilateralism, resist bloc rivalry and maintain international solidarity and cooperation.

Stressing that the current international and regional situation is undergoing a profound and complex evolution, Khurelsuh believes the two sides should promote Asian values and work together to maintain peace, stability and development in Asia.

The Mongolian side highly values China’s positive contribution to the maintenance of world peace, stability and development as well as the international system with the United Nations at its core, and is willing to strengthen communication and cooperation with China in international affairs and contribute to the maintenance of regional peace and development.

He added Mongolia backs the China-proposed Global Development Initiative and Global Security Initiative.

XM Cyber Recognized by Frost & Sullivan for Enabling a Single View of Security Risks Across the Hybrid Environment in Real Time and Providing Customer Value

XM Cyber offers various use cases, including third-party risk management, vulnerability prioritization, business risk profiling and management, digital transformation, and proactive cyber defense.

SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan recently researched the global breach and attack simulation market and, based on its findings, recognizes XM Cyber with the 2022 Global Customer Value Leadership Award for its breach and attack simulation (BAS) platform. The company enables organizations to monitor risks continuously and provide the cyber adversary’s perspective. The leading attack path management vendor provides security teams with visibility on all hidden attack paths that lead to critical assets. The company is positioned as a hybrid cloud security provider that leverages attack path management to provide a holistic view of risks across the hybrid environment in real time.

2022 Global Breach and Attack Simulation Customer Value Leadership Award
2022 Global Breach and Attack Simulation Customer Value Leadership Award

XM Cyber’s Attack Path Management platform is a hybrid cloud security software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. The platform analyzes exposures and provides an accurate view of various attack paths across the client organization. In addition, the platform provides comprehensive visibility across the enterprise continuously and safely and identifies critical assets’ choke points, which are the key junctures in an attack path that lead a cyber adversary to a critical asset. Rather than fixing all security issues leading to a critical asset, security teams can fix the choke point and protect the asset. The platform, therefore, shows security teams the smallest number of actions to reduce risks significantly, thus improving the team’s efficiency.

According to Swetha Krishnamoorthi, Frost & Sullivan Senior Industry Analyst, “XM Cyber has a fast turnaround with regards to improving the cyber posture of organizations. For instance, in one customer environment, XM Cyber reduced the percentage of assets that could be compromised in a hybrid infrastructure from 93% to 7% in less than three months.”

XM Cyber combines its attack path management capabilities with continuous controls monitoring capabilities following its acquisition of Cyber Observer earlier this year, to provide continuous visibility of security control gaps. The integrated platform offers automated compliance validation and reporting for key standards, such as NIST, GDPR, and SWIFT CSCF. In addition, the company leverages customer satisfaction, strategic partnerships, customer testimonials, and exceptional customer service to offer value and drive stellar growth.

“XM Cyber works closely with customers to continuously release features and capabilities that enable security teams to proactively identify and fix security issues in an efficient and effective way. The company has consistently demonstrated financial and operational excellence, harnessing its superior product and customer support capabilities,” added Krishnamoorthi. With its strong overall performance, XM Cyber earns Frost & Sullivan’s 2022 Global Customer Value Leadership Award in the breach and attack simulation market.

Each year, Frost & Sullivan presents this award to the company that has demonstrated excellence in implementing strategies that proactively create value for its customers, with a focus on improving the return on investment that customers make in its services or products. The award recognizes the company’s unique focus on augmenting the value that its customers receive, beyond simply providing good customer service, leading to improved customer retention and customer base expansion.

Frost & Sullivan Best Practices Awards recognize companies in various regional and global markets for demonstrating outstanding achievement and superior performance in leadership, technological innovation, customer service, and strategic product development. Industry analysts compare market participants and measure performance through in-depth interviews, analyses, and extensive secondary research to identify best practices in the industry.

LG HOSTS EXCLUSIVE PERFORMANCE SERIES SHOWCASING THE BEST OF CONTEMPORARY ARTS

On Behalf of Premium Brand LG SIGNATURE, LG Introduces Immersive Performances at the LG Arts Center SEOUL

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) brought together the world of art and technology with its ultra-premium brand, LG SIGNATURE, sponsoring two immersive performances at the LG Arts Center SEOUL in South Korea last week.

One of the most sought-after performances in the Center’s opening festival, the series introduced Korean audiences to Yoann Bourgeois, renowned artistic director-choreographer and performance artist, for the first time. The performance series well marks LG’s time-old commitment to the cultivation of the arts beginning from the operation of the LG Arts Center SEOUL.

After 22 years of operation, the LG Arts Center SEOUL re-opened its doors again to the public in October in a building designed by Japanese architectural virtuoso Tadao Ando. A testimony to LG’s devotion to the arts, the relocated Center boasts a spacious, new performance venue, the LG SIGNATURE Hall. The remarkable space has seating for 1,335 and is home to special performing arts programs from all over the world, including the Yoann Bourgeois series.

Introduced to South Korea for the first time, Bourgeois, who has a diverse background that includes circus training, is a major figure in the global contemporary performing arts scene. His riveting performances celebrate the beauty of physical movement, blurring the boundary between acrobatics and dance and revealing a truly unique creative vision. Bourgeois’s artistry and innovative approach to his craft echo the philosophy of LG SIGNATURE, a brand whose home appliances seamlessly unite the best of art and technology.

Proudly sponsored by LG on behalf of the LG SIGNATURE brand, the inspiring He Who Falls was performed by the National Choreographic Center of Grenoble under Bourgeois’s direction, with the late Frank Sinatra’s signature song, My Way, accompanying the dynamic movements of the performers. Opening 2, a short yet equally mesmerizing work, introduced audiences to the grace, power and presence that Bourgeois so effortlessly brings to the stage. As a part of LG SIGNATURE’s extensive customer experiences, select customers and clients were invited to attend both performances.

During the Yoann Bourgeois series, visitors to LG Arts Center SEOUL were treated to an opportunity to enjoy the exclusive pop-up LG SIGNATURE exhibition and photo zone located in the LG SIGNATURE Hall lobby. Echoing the unique architectural design philosophy of Tadao Ando, the exhibition zone offered a glimpse into the best of LG SIGNATURE’s innovations, such as the Wine Cellar, InstaView Door-in-Door Refrigerator and OLED R TV. Meanwhile, the ultra-interactive photo zone featured memorable moments from the Yoann Bourgeois series for audiences to immerse in.

“It was a great honor to introduce audiences in Korea to the artistic innovation of the inimitable Yoann Bourgeois,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of LG Electronics Global Marketing Center. “Staying true to our philosophy, we will continue to partner with artists and institutions that share our vision of a better world through the power of art.”

An innovative brand founded on the philosophy of bringing art and technology together as one, LG SIGNATURE will continue to support the best of the arts, worldwide. More on the brand’s high-profile art collaborations can be found on LG Newsroom.
