TOKYO, May 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- EnGenius Networks Japan, the Japanese subsidiary of EnGenius Technologies, will showcase its latest cloud networking, video surveillance, and AI application solutions at Interop Tokyo 2026. Under the 2026 campaign theme, "AI that Sees. Networks that Think. One Unified Platform." EnGenius will demonstrate how cloud-managed infrastructure and intelligent video analytics can help organizations simplify operations, improve visibility, and respond faster across distributed environments.  At this year's exhibition, EnGenius will present its latest networking technologies, including Layer 3 switching, high-performance wireless networking, and emerging Wi-Fi 8 application scenarios. The company will also introduce the upgraded EnGenius Cloud Intelligence platform, designed to make network management more intuitive through AI-assisted diagnosis, natural-language dashboard creation, and centralized control across networking and surveillance devices. Cloud Intelligence with Resolve AI and Craft AI A key highlight of the showcase will be EnGenius Cloud Intelligence, featuring Resolve AI and Craft AI. Resolve AI assists IT teams with network diagnosis and issue resolution by helping identify root causes when network performance issues occur. Instead of manually reviewing logs and disconnected system data, administrators can use Resolve AI to understand what is happening and move more quickly toward resolution. Craft AI allows users to create customized dashboards through natural language. By turning dashboard requests into working visualizations, Craft AI helps IT teams and business users access relevant information faster, without waiting for predefined templates or manual report creation. Together, Resolve AI and Craft AI are designed to shorten the time between question and action, making cloud management more practical for distributed teams and organizations without dedicated network operations resources. "EnGenius Cloud Intelligence represents our vision for making AI practical in everyday network management," said Roger Liu, CEO of EnGenius Technologies. "With Resolve AI, users diagnose and resolve issues more efficiently. With Craft AI, they create custom dashboards through natural language. By simplifying complex workflows, we help organizations manage networks with greater speed, clarity, and confidence." Wi-Fi 8, Layer 3 Switching, and Complete Networking EnGenius will also preview emerging Wi-Fi 8 application scenarios alongside its Layer 3 cloud switching and high-density wireless lineup. The Wi-Fi 8 preview highlights future opportunities to improve connection reliability and transmission efficiency, while Layer 3 cloud switching strengthens EnGenius' ability to deliver a more complete, centrally managed network solution. Together, these technologies support one-stop deployment needs for vertical markets such as healthcare, hospitality, MDU, manufacturing, and enterprise sites. One Platform Across Networking, Cameras, and Video EnGenius will demonstrate how its unified platform brings networking, cameras, and video systems into one cloud-managed environment. Access points, switches, VPN Firewalls, AI cameras, and recorders can be managed under the same cloud account, with centralized visibility, consistent alerts, and simplified device onboarding. This unified approach helps organizations reduce operational complexity by replacing separate management workflows with one integrated platform. For IT teams and site operators, this means faster deployment, easier monitoring, and clearer visibility across both network infrastructure and video systems. AI Cameras with Facial Recognition, Cross-Camera Search, and Real-Time Alerts EnGenius will showcase its latest AI camera capabilities, including facial recognition, cross-camera tracking, visual timeline search, and natural-language video search. The solution includes cross-angle matching, which can identify the same person across cameras using a single frontal reference photo, even when cameras are installed at higher angles and capture subjects from above. This helps improve recognition across real-world deployment conditions where camera angles are rarely perfect, because apparently buildings were not designed for ideal AI geometry. Visitors will also see real-time alerting features, including surrender pose detection, designed to support safety monitoring in locations such as retail floors, and public-facing spaces. EnGenius will also demonstrate real-time event alerting across supported detection scenarios. When an event is detected, the system can trigger a webhook in real time, enabling connected responses such as flashing lights, audible alarms, SMS notifications, Slack notifications, or other third-party workflows. For outdoor environments, visitors will see bear detection as one example of how alerts can support faster response when a bear enters a monitored zone. This capability addresses growing public safety concerns in regional Japan, where bear incursions into towns, schools, and farms have become an increasing issue. Partner Ecosystem for the Japanese Market EnGenius will also highlight its partner ecosystem in Japan. The company expects to be joined on-site by System Integration Corporation, SUNTEL, and Axillion, with demonstrations showing how cloud-managed networking, AI surveillance, and vertical solutions can support practical deployment scenarios in the Japanese market. Through collaboration with local partners, EnGenius aims to strengthen the connection between networking infrastructure, AI applications, and real-world customer needs across Japan. About EnGenius EnGenius Technologies is a global leader in cloud-driven networking solutions, with over 25 years of expertise in developing and delivering innovative, user-friendly hardware and software. The company's secure, cloud-managed ecosystem—including wireless access points, network switches, VPN Firewalls, AI cameras, AI-powered network video systems, and power distribution units—empowers businesses across industries such as enterprise, education, healthcare, retail, and logistics to build high-performance, reliable, and scalable network infrastructures.

Meanwhile, Loke said the Bill (RUU) establishing the Malaysian Transport Safety Board (MTSB) will not be tabled in the Parliament session which begins next week. "MTSB has received Cabinet approval, but we are now discussing with the Public Service Department to look at staffing and so on." "This bill will be brought to the next sitting because at this sitting, there is one bill, namely the amendment to the Road Transport Act, which we are giving priority," he said. Loke said the Ministry of Transport (MOT) has also identified individuals to be appointed to the MTSB, which will be finalized in the near future. In another development, Loke said the MOT would hold discussions with e-hailing operators on the possibility of implementing additional safety measures to protect the safety of their drivers. Among the suggestions raised is the installation of dashboard cameras ( dashcams ) in e-hailing vehicles, but this needs to take into account passenger privacy concerns. "In terms of safety measures, we will discuss further with the operator to see what other actions they can take to protect drivers." "In terms of safety, drivers and passengers are equally important. So we have to ensure a balance between the two," he said. -- BERNAMA

KUALA LUMPUR, JUNE 15 -- About 7,000 to 8,000 Rohingya were sent to third countries each year through intergovernmental cooperation, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail. However, he said the process has now stalled due to various constraints faced by the countries involved. He said the Rohingya ethnic issue was an international issue stemming from the political and security situation in Myanmar, causing Malaysia to accept their presence on humanitarian grounds. "Malaysia has government-to-government (G2G) cooperation with several countries that allows Rohingya refugees to be temporarily housed before being sent to third countries that need their labor or professional services. "Recently, the process of resettling Rohingyas to third countries has faced several constraints, causing their movement to the country to be halted, thus raising various issues that require the attention of all parties," he told reporters after the launch of the Fight Against Scam: Two Teams, One Goal, here, today. Mohd Khalid said that apart from that, Malaysia also took into account the humanitarian aspect in dealing with the issue, in addition to ensuring that national security continues to be maintained. "Everyone who comes to this country must follow the laws and regulations that have been set. These people are subject to our laws. If they commit an offence, we will take action just like we do against anyone else who comes to our country," he said. He said about 215,000 Rohingya are registered with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) while local authorities also have their records in collaboration with the Immigration Department to facilitate monitoring. "We know where they are and what their jobs are. So if any crime occurs involving them, it will be easy for us to take action when we know their location and so on," he said. Commenting on crime trends involving the community, Mohd Khalid said the involvement of the Rohingya ethnic group in crime was low, with 89 individuals recorded as being involved in criminal cases for the period 2024 to this year, which is 0.02 percent of the overall crime statistics in the country. In this regard, he reminded the public not to make statements that could affect public safety and order, while stressing that enforcement action would be taken against any individual who violates the law regardless of nationality. The media last Saturday reported that Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said that the rate of resettlement to third countries by the UNHCR was too low for refugees, including the Rohingya, which was one of the reasons why the group remained in the midst of local communities for a long time. Meanwhile, Selangor Police Chief Datuk Shazeli Kahar said the state recorded 192 cases involving 300 arrests of Rohingya between 2025 and May 2026 involving violent and property crimes. He said the police always take consistent and continuous enforcement action and are not based on current sentiment. "The police always work closely with strategic agency partners, for example the Immigration Department and Local Authorities (PBT), we work together to exchange information and carry out integrated operations," he said at a press conference by the Selangor Commercial Crime Investigation Department, here, today. Shazeli said last year six integrated operations were carried out throughout the state of Selangor to address the issue. Commenting on the issue of demolition of illegal settlements, he said discussions on the matter were being held with the local authorities involved so that further, more constructive action could be taken in line with legal provisions. – BERNAMA

KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 — Communications Minister and Lembah Pantai Member of Parliament Datuk Fahmi Fadzil has welcomed the successful launch of the Dengue-Free Community (KomBeD) Programme and Mega Anti-Aedes Gotong-Royong initiative, describing it as an important step towards strengthening community involvement in dengue prevention and control efforts. The programme, organised by the Lembah Pantai Health Office in collaboration with the Lembah Pantai parliamentary constituency, was held on Sunday (June 14) and brought together government agencies, strategic partners and local residents in a united effort to combat the spread of dengue fever. The event also featured the National Healthy Malaysia Agenda (ANMS) Roadshow for Lembah Pantai, aimed at promoting healthy lifestyle practices and enhancing public awareness of health-related issues within the community. Fahmi said the initiative reflects the importance of collective responsibility in maintaining a clean, safe and healthy environment, while encouraging greater public participation in efforts to eliminate Aedes mosquito breeding grounds. "Community engagement remains a key component in the fight against dengue. Through programmes such as KomBeD and the Mega Anti-Aedes Gotong-Royong, residents are empowered to take proactive measures in protecting their neighbourhoods and families from dengue outbreaks," he said. He expressed hope that the programme would serve as a catalyst for building a more aware, proactive and committed community capable of sustaining a cleaner, healthier and dengue-free environment. Fahmi also extended his appreciation to all participating agencies, strategic partners and members of the local community for their cooperation and dedication in ensuring the success of the programme. "The commitment shown by all stakeholders demonstrates that effective public health initiatives require strong collaboration between the government, community leaders and residents. Together, we can create healthier communities and reduce the threat posed by dengue," he added. -- MINUTESMY -- SOURCE: FB FAHMI FADZIL

KUALA LUMPUR, June 15 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today described the groundbreaking ceremony for the Bukit Kiara Permanent Housing Project as a historic milestone that reflects the MADANI Government's commitment to justice, dignity and the welfare of the people. Speaking at the ceremony, Anwar said the project marks the end of a 44-year struggle for residents of Rumah Panjang Bukit Kiara, who have lived in temporary settlements under challenging conditions while awaiting a permanent housing solution. "This is a meaningful and joyous moment, not only for the residents of Rumah Panjang Bukit Kiara, but also proof that an administration guided by MADANI values will always place justice, courtesy and the dignity of the people at the forefront," he said. The Prime Minister noted that the project represents a concrete step towards resolving a long-standing issue that has affected generations of residents and demonstrates the government's determination to ensure citizens receive their rightful access to proper housing. He said the process of addressing the matter required careful consideration and collaboration among various stakeholders to identify the best possible solution while safeguarding the interests of the affected community. Anwar also expressed appreciation to all parties involved in making the project a reality, stressing that the experience underscored the importance of respecting legislative processes and upholding the role of national institutions. "The rights and welfare of those in need must continue to be protected, with justice enjoyed by all citizens regardless of race, religion or background," he said. He added that the government's efforts to uplift the urban poor would remain a priority, in line with its commitment to ensuring that no segment of society is left behind in the nation's development agenda. According to Anwar, development must be inclusive and benefit all levels of society, as true national progress can only be achieved when every citizen is able to participate in and benefit from economic and social advancement. During the ceremony, the Prime Minister also announced a RM1 million grant to assist longhouse residents transitioning into their new homes. The allocation will be used to provide residential maintenance subsidies for a period of three years and will be managed by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL). He said the initiative forms part of the MADANI Government's ongoing commitment to preserving the welfare and quality of life of residents after they relocate to their new permanent housing units. -- MINUTESMY -- SOURCE: FB ANWAR IBRAHIM

Bukit Kiara Permanent Housing Project Ends 44-Year Wait for Longhouse Residents – PM Anwar

LONDON, 15 June  -- AI is rapidly reshaping the skills employers want most from workers – increasing the emphasis on human skills such as judgement, creativity and leadership – as companies most able to use AI continue to expand hiring faster than their peers, according to PwC's 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer, released today.  The Barometer, which analysed more than one billion job ads across six continents, also finds that AI is driving a 'two-track' global labour market in which 'professionalised' roles – in which AI automates routine tasks so human judgement and expertise are emphasized – are growing faster than roles 'democratised' by AI – in which AI makes the role itself easier for non-experts to perform. 'Professionalised' roles (such as radiologists or recruiters) are seeing twice the growth in available jobs and 42% faster salary growth than those categorised as 'democratised' (such as IT service managers or medical secretaries). At the entry level, AI appears to be increasing demand for more 'senior' skills from junior workers. Based on 2.4 million entry-level jobs analysed in the US, entry-level roles most exposed to AI are now seven times more likely to require traditionally senior-level 'human-intensive' skills like leadership, creativity or face-to-face interactions. Job openings for these 'seniorised' entry-level roles have grown 35% since 2019, while other entry-level roles shrank 10%. Joe Atkinson, Global Chief AI Officer, PwC, said: "Across the global economy, we're beginning to see a new divide emerge between different models for talent and value creation. The companies seeing the greatest returns on AI are using it to amplify human expertise, accelerate innovation and create entirely new sources of value. As a result, they are pulling further ahead on productivity and growth than companies that focus primarily on automation." AI is driving a productivity boom – and "super-star" companies most able to use AI are pulling ahead significantly The report finds widening divergence between companies most and least exposed to AI. Companies operating in the most AI-exposed sectors recorded 34% productivity growth in 2025 relative to 2018, compared to 24% for the companies least able to use AI. Within this group, a pronounced "super-star" effect is emerging. The top 20% of the most AI-exposed companies achieved average labour productivity growth of 163% relative to 2018 – nearly five times higher than the most AI-exposed companies overall. Perhaps most surprisingly, headcount growth at the most AI-exposed companies is outpacing growth at the least AI-exposed companies – 52% relative to 36% in 2025, based on 2018 baseline levels. Average wage premium for AI skills hits 62% as AI job postings eclipse broader labour market growth As companies continue to boost productivity with AI, the average wage premium for workers with AI skills continued to surge higher – hitting 62%, up from 57% last year. The wage premium varies by industry: as high as 118% in some sectors, such as consumer markets, and 16% in government and public sector work. Jobs requiring specific AI skills – such as prompt engineering or machine learning – have also soared, growing roughly eight times (69%) as fast as the overall jobs market, at 9%. The number of AI jobs is almost twice as high as 2024, with growth in AI jobs outpacing all jobs since 2015.  Sectors including technology, media and telecommunications (11%) and professional services (6%) sectors saw the highest share in AI job growth – with health at the lowest end (less than 1%) Pete Brown, Global Workforce Leader, PwC, said: "The traditional relationship between experience and expertise is changing. AI is removing some of the routine work that once acted as an apprenticeship, while increasing demand for judgement, leadership and adaptability much earlier in careers. Organisations need to rethink how they develop talent if they want people to thrive in this new environment." Notes to Editors About PwC 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer  PwC's 2026 AI Jobs Barometer analysed more than one billion jobs advertisements in 27 countries and territories. The Barometer combines large-scale labour market, company financial and occupational task data to understand how AI is reshaping jobs, skills, wages and productivity across the global economy. Additionally, this year's Barometer includes targeted analysis of entry-level roles, including how the skill requirements of early-career jobs are changing in highly AI-exposed occupations.
