Bitget Wallet doubles tokenized stock offerings, expanding US market access for Filipino investors

 

Bitget Wallet, a leading non-custodial crypto wallet with over 80 million users, has officially doubled its tokenized stock offerings, allowing Filipinos and users anywhere in the world access to more than 200 US stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

The expanded offerings are made possible through Ondo Finance’s Global Markets infrastructure. This blockchain-based platform brings traditionally traded US stocks and ETFs on-chain, allowing users outside the United States to gain exposure to these assets.

Through this integration, Filipino users can manage a hybrid portfolio of cryptocurrencies and US equities directly within the Bitget Wallet application. This eliminates the need for traditional brokerage accounts or navigating complex international banking intermediaries, effectively democratizing access to global wealth-building tools.

“As markets change, access should change with them. By expanding the range of stocks available in our app, we’re giving users more ways to participate in global markets, without the usual barriers of location, banking access, or trading hours, said Jamie Elkaleh, Chief Marketing Officer of Bitget Wallet.

Previously, Bitget Wallet focused on offering popular technology stocks from Apple, Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon, and Nvidia. With this update, users worldwide can now access nearly 100 additional US companies, including AT&T, Citigroup, and T-Mobile. These new options cover industries such as telecommunications, banking, and energy.

This global expansion marks a significant milestone in Bitget Wallet’s mission to merge decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional markets. By broadening its asset catalog, the platform provides a seamless bridge for investors to diversify their digital portfolios with real-world equities.

As the Philippine tokenized market continues its upward trajectory toward 2030, Bitget Wallet’s latest update provides Filipino investors with more robust alternative options to grow their wealth in an increasingly digital-first economy.

Rotary Club of New Manila East Becomes First Rotary Club to Win an Anvil Award for a Coffee Table Book Publication

 

Celebrating 40 years, RCNME earned its 40th honor by becoming the first Rotary club to win an Anvil Award for a coffee table book.

QUEZON CITY, Philippines — The Rotary Club of New Manila East (RCNME) became the first Rotary club in Philippine history to receive an Anvil Award for a Coffee Table Book when it was honored at the 61st Anvil Awards Recognition Night on January 28, 2026, at Solaire North Grand Ballroom. It is also the 2nd Rotary club to win an Anvil Award in the last 61 years.

The Silver Anvil was awarded to “40 Years: The Rotary Club of New Manila East 1984–2024“, an ISBN-registered publication that documents the club’s four decades of service across health, education, livelihood, youth development, environmental stewardship, and peacebuilding. The book transforms institutional memory into a permanent, measurable record of community impact. The Anvil Awards, established in 1965 by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP), are the country’s highest recognition in public relations and communications. A panel of senior industry practitioners evaluates entries on research rigor, strategic planning, execution quality, and measurable results.

The Anvil is RCNME’s 40th award, earned during the club’s 40th anniversary year, a coincidence that caps what the club calls its Ruby Year.

“We set out to honor our past and equip our future,” said Immediate Past President Karlo Benjamin Nisce, who led RCNME during its Ruby Year and spearheaded the publication. “When you document your work with clarity and honesty, the story stops being history. It becomes a blueprint.”

Ruby Year Public Image Chairman Jullian Anisco emphasized that the book was never designed as an awards submission. “This was a documentation effort, not a campaign,” Anisco said. “The recognition validates the discipline behind the work.”

A Record-Setting Year The Anvil caps a Ruby Year in which RCNME completed 80 projects and activities, generating an unprecedented sweep of recognition:

• 34 Rotary International District 3780 Excellence Awards, including Outstanding Club and President with High Platinum Distinction

• 2 Rotary Zone 10A Public Image Awards, placing RCNME above 900+ clubs across the Philippines

• Rotary International Club Excellence Award for alignment with global objectives

• Partner in Service recognition from the Department of Education and Department of Health–QMMC

The government citations from DepEd and DOH-QMMC, are notable for extending recognition beyond Rotary’s internal ecosystem, validating the club’s measurable impact on public institutions.

Why Smart Money Is Looking First at Electric Moto-Taxis in the Philippines

  

Smart capital in the Philippines is increasingly looking first at electric moto-taxis as the fastest-moving layer of clean mobility, driven by utilization economics rather than vehicle size. With motorcycles completing far more trips per day than private cars, two-wheel electrification delivers quicker payback and scale—now being tested at platform level by operators like Xpress Super App as an early-adoption complement to four-wheel EV fleets.

Manila, Philippines — While much of the electric vehicle conversation in the Philippines has centered on four-wheel fleets and private cars, industry attention is increasingly shifting to where electrification delivers impact sooner: electric moto-taxis. In a country where motorcycles account for a disproportionate share of daily transport activity, two-wheel EVs are emerging as the fastest-moving layer in the clean mobility transition.

The logic is rooted in utilization. Moto-taxis operate longer hours, complete more trips per day, and burn fuel continuously. Electrifying a single high-use motorcycle can displace more daily fuel consumption — and reach payback sooner — than many privately owned electric cars that spend much of the day parked. For capital focused on efficiency and speed to scale, utilization, not vehicle size, is becoming the decisive metric.

This sequencing is now being tested at the platform level. Ride-hailing operators such as Xpress Super App are integrating electric motorcycles into high-volume networks, positioning two-wheel EVs as the early adoption layer within a broader electric mobility portfolio that also includes four-wheel fleets. Rather than replacing EV cars, the approach complements them — allowing platforms to capture faster returns and operational learning while larger EV infrastructure continues to mature.

About Xpress Super App

Xpress Super App is a Philippine-based mobility platform operating across two-wheel and four-wheel transport, built for high-density cities and tourism-driven markets. The company focuses on high-frequency, real-world mobility use cases, integrating ride-hailing with digital services to drive scale and utilization. Positioned as a platform-led operator, Xpress is advancing electric mobility through a portfolio approach—deploying electric two-wheel vehicles as an early adoption layer while continuing to develop four-wheel EV fleets as infrastructure matures.

Join PetroSync API Training for Real-World Skills Trusted by Industry Leaders

 

In today’s highly competitive industrial landscape, staying still is no longer a neutral position. For business leaders like you, the real risk often lies not in making bold decisions—but in delaying critical investments while competitors move faster, smarter, and more efficiently.

This is the reality many executives face today: operations look stable on the surface, yet subtle gaps in technical competence quietly erode productivity, increase costs, and open doors for competitors to take the lead. PetroSync API Training exists precisely to close that gap—before it becomes a business liability.

When Your Competitors Upgrade Skills Faster Than Your Team

Imagine this scenario. Your competitor completes inspections faster, reduces unplanned shutdowns, and responds confidently to regulatory audits. Meanwhile, your internal team still relies on outdated interpretations of codes and fragmented field experience.

The difference is rarely technology alone—it is capability. Industry leaders continuously upgrade their people’s skills to align with current API standards. According to industry benchmarks, organizations that invest in structured technical training report up to 20–25% improvement in team productivity, as engineers and inspectors make faster, more accurate decisions on-site.

By enrolling your professionals in globally recognized programs such as API 570 Training and API 510 Training, you ensure your team operates with clarity, confidence, and consistency—matching or exceeding the pace set by competitors.

The Hidden Cost of Outdated Technical Decisions

Operational inefficiencies rarely announce themselves loudly. They appear as minor inspection delays, repeated clarifications, or conservative shutdown decisions “just to be safe.” Over time, these small inefficiencies accumulate into significant financial impact.

Studies in asset-intensive industries show that improving inspection accuracy and decision-making can reduce maintenance-related downtime by 10–15%, translating directly into cost savings and improved asset availability. When your engineers are trained to apply the latest API codes correctly, they minimize unnecessary repairs while maintaining full compliance.

PetroSync’s API 653 Training equips tank inspectors with practical, real-world insights—ensuring inspections are not only compliant but also commercially sound.

Why Industry Leaders Don’t Rely on Experience Alone

Experience matters—but experience without structured knowledge can be risky. The most successful organizations combine field expertise with standardized frameworks, proven methodologies, and modern tools.

This is where productivity gains accelerate. Companies that integrate technical training with digital support tools—such as AI-powered chatbots for internal knowledge access—report up to 30% faster problem resolution. These AI assistants help teams retrieve procedures, clarify code interpretations, and reduce repetitive manual work, allowing engineers to focus on high-value decisions.

By strengthening foundational knowledge through programs like API 936 Training, your team can collaborate more effectively with digital tools, driving both operational efficiency and smarter use of technology.

Choosing to Invest Now—or Pay a Higher Price Later

Every leadership decision sends a signal. Investing in API-certified training tells your organization—and your clients—that you prioritize safety, efficiency, and long-term value. Delaying it sends a different message, often felt first through lost bids, audit pressure, or rising operational costs.

PetroSync API Training is not about theory. It is about preparing your team for real-world challenges, reducing costly errors, and protecting your competitive position in an increasingly demanding market.

As a business leader, you already understand the stakes. The only remaining question is timing. Will you act now—while the investment is strategic—or later, when the cost of inaction is far higher?

About PetroSync Global Internasional

PetroSync was established in Singapore in 2010 and began its expansion into Indonesia in 2013. To this day, PetroSync has become a leading oil and gas training provider, with a participant passing rate as high as 90%.

Join PetroSync API Training to Minimize Risk and Ensure Compliance

 

 Join PetroSync API Training to ensure compliance, reduce operational risk, boost team productivity, and stay ahead of competitors in regulated industries.

In today’s industrial landscape, compliance is no longer just a regulatory requirement—it is a competitive advantage. As a business leader, you already know how thin the line is between operational excellence and costly failure. One overlooked inspection, one unqualified decision, or one delayed response can be enough for clients to quietly move their trust—and contracts—to your competitors.

The question is not whether risk exists, but how prepared your organization is to manage it.

When One Compliance Failure Is All It Takes to Lose Market Trust

Imagine this scenario. Your operation runs smoothly, deadlines are met, and clients appear satisfied. Then a single compliance issue surfaces—an inspection gap, a documentation error, or a non-conformity with API standards. Suddenly, your client starts asking uncomfortable questions.

In regulated industries such as oil and gas, trust is fragile. Clients expect you to operate not only efficiently, but also safely and in full compliance with international standards. When that expectation is broken, competitors who already invest in certified professionals are ready to step in.

This is why industry leaders prioritize formal certifications such as API 570 Training, which equips piping inspectors with the skills to identify risks early and ensure system integrity. Well-trained teams reduce inspection errors, improve reporting accuracy, and strengthen your company’s credibility in the eyes of regulators and stakeholders. Learn more about the program here: 👉 API 570 Training

How Competitors Are Quietly Moving Faster With Smarter, AI-Driven Operations

While compliance is critical, speed and efficiency increasingly define market leadership. Many companies are now combining skilled human expertise with AI-powered tools—such as internal chatbot AI systems—to support decision-making and daily operations.

According to multiple industry studies, AI chatbots can increase team productivity by up to 30–40% by reducing repetitive tasks, accelerating access to technical information, and supporting faster troubleshooting. For your engineers and inspectors, this means less time searching for standards and more time focusing on high-value work.

Operational efficiency also improves significantly. AI-assisted workflows help standardize procedures, reduce human error, and shorten response times during inspections and maintenance planning. Over time, these improvements translate into measurable cost savings—lower downtime, fewer reworks, and reduced operational risk.

However, technology alone is not enough. AI tools are only effective when used by professionals who fully understand API codes and inspection principles. That is where certified training becomes the foundation that technology builds upon.

The Hidden Cost of Untrained Teams: Delays, Rework, and Rising Operational Risk

Many organizations underestimate the true cost of undertrained teams. The impact is not always immediate, but it accumulates quietly—missed corrosion indicators, incorrect assessment of pressure vessels, or delayed maintenance decisions.

For example, without proper knowledge of API pressure vessel standards, teams may take overly conservative actions that increase downtime, or worse, overlook critical defects that lead to safety incidents. This is why API 510 Training remains essential for companies operating pressure vessels in high-risk environments.

Professionals who complete this training are better equipped to:

• Reduce unplanned shutdowns through accurate inspection planning
• Improve asset reliability and lifecycle management
• Support faster, data-driven decisions that align with regulatory expectations

You can explore the course details here: 👉 API 510 Training

The same principle applies to specialized areas such as refractory systems and storage tanks. Lack of expertise in these areas often leads to premature failures and costly repairs.

API 936 Training helps engineers and inspectors ensure refractory materials are designed, installed, and inspected correctly, minimizing heat loss and structural degradation. 👉 API 936 Training

API 653 Training enables tank inspectors to maintain storage integrity, prevent leaks, and avoid regulatory penalties that can severely damage your reputation. 👉 API 653 Training

Why Industry Leaders Invest Early in API Training to Stay Ahead

Successful companies do not wait for incidents to justify training. They invest early—before problems arise—because they understand that prevention is always cheaper than correction.

By enrolling your team in PetroSync API Training programs, you are not just ticking a compliance box. You are strengthening your organization’s ability to:

• Increase team productivity through structured knowledge and standardized practices
• Improve operational efficiency by reducing delays, rework, and uncertainty
• Achieve long-term cost savings by minimizing failures, downtime, and compliance penalties

When combined with modern tools such as AI chatbots, certified professionals become even more effective. They know what questions to ask, how to validate AI-generated insights, and how to make decisions that protect both safety and profitability.

In a market where competitors are constantly improving, standing still is not a neutral choice—it is a risk. By investing in API training today, you send a clear signal to clients, regulators, and partners: your business is committed to excellence, compliance, and long-term sustainability.

And in an industry where trust defines success, that commitment makes all the difference.

Xpress Super App Leads Electric Moto-Taxi Shift with Backing from Aboitiz Power Group and Longtime Partner Cebuana Lhuillier

 

 Manila, Philippines — Xpress Super App is asserting a leadership role in the country’s shift toward cleaner mobility by operationalizing a scalable electric moto-taxi model using VOLTAI electric motorcycles under the Aboitiz Power Group, integrated directly into its high-frequency ride-hailing ecosystem.

While electric mobility has gained global momentum, large-scale adoption in emerging markets has often been constrained by fragmented execution. Xpress’ strategy addresses this gap by focusing on deployment at volume, targeting two-wheel transport—one of the most widely used and economically critical mobility segments in the Philippines.

“The challenge today is no longer whether electric vehicles work, but how quickly they can be deployed where they matter most,” Xpress shared. “Two-wheel ride-hailing offers the fastest path to scale, efficiency, and everyday relevance.”

Platform-led execution over pilot programs

As an active mobility platform, Xpress anchors its electric rollout on operational fundamentals rather than isolated trials. The platform brings together:

Consistent, high-frequency ride demand suited for electric two-wheel use

Integrated operations aligned with real passenger and driver behavior

Repeatable deployment discipline that allows expansion across cities

VOLTAI electric motorcycles are engineered for Philippine road conditions and continuous daily use, enabling Xpress to introduce EVs without compromising service reliability or rider comfort.

Institutional confidence strengthens long-term direction

The initiative is reinforced by the continued backing of Cebuana Lhuillier, a longtime partner of Xpress that has supported the platform’s growth and sustainability direction over time. This alignment reflects shared confidence in Xpress’ ability to scale cleaner mobility solutions responsibly and commercially.

Rather than positioning sustainability as a short-term initiative, Xpress and its institutional partners are advancing electric mobility as a long-horizon strategy—one that improves everyday transport while contributing to broader environmental goals.

A scalable blueprint for Philippine mobility

By embedding electric two-wheel vehicles directly into an operating ride-hailing platform, Xpress is positioning electric moto-taxis as a commercially viable and repeatable model, particularly suited for dense urban centers and tourism-driven markets.

The collaboration signals a broader shift in Philippine mobility: clean transport adoption is now being driven by platform execution, institutional backing, and real-world economics, with Xpress at the center of that transition.

About Xpress Super App

Xpress Super App is a Philippines-based mobility and lifestyle platform designed for high-density cities and tourism-driven markets across Southeast Asia. The platform integrates ride-hailing, digital payments, and on-ground services into a single, scalable ecosystem built for everyday use. Purpose-built for local operating conditions, Xpress focuses on high-frequency transport—particularly two-wheel mobility—while accelerating the shift toward cleaner and more efficient electric vehicle solutions. By aligning platform demand with financial and mobility partners, Xpress treats sustainability as a commercial advantage, not a compromise. With a growing presence across key Philippine cities and island destinations, Xpress is building a modern mobility network that prioritizes accessibility, reliability, and real-world performance.
