MALAYSIA'S BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM TO "LIFT OFF" TO GLOBAL HEIGHTS WITH MYBW RETURN

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The highly anticipated Malaysia Blockchain Week (MYBW) is back in 2025 to drive our blockchain ecosystem towards global prominence. The inaugural event returns after its successful debut last year, this time with a bold theme of "Lift-Off", signifying a pivotal moment for Malaysia's blockchain ecosystem to grow bigger, better, and badder.

"The theme 'Lift-Off' reflects our ambition to accelerate Malaysia's role within the global sphere. MYBW aims to be the movement that brings together visionaries from across various sectors and industry to build real change." – Dr Ian Tan, Lydian Labs.

Now in its second year, MYBW 2025 promises to once again serve as the launchpad in Malaysia for innovation, education, investments, and regulatory progress in the decentralised era.

Malaysia is well-poised to jet set into the future, with blockchain technology firmly backed by industry leaders as well as the national government.

"It's clear that government leadership is essential in driving blockchain adoption—such as through digitisation and exploring tokenisation of financial instruments and other use cases. With the right steps, Malaysia can position itself at the forefront of this global digital transformation." – Prime Minister Dato' Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim on X.

MALAYSIA'S BLOCKCHAIN ECOSYSTEM TO "LIFT OFF" TO GLOBAL HEIGHTS WITH MYBW RETURN

GUANGZHOU, China, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, GAC's independently developed Quark E-Drive power domain control system has achieved the world's first dual certification for deeply integrated ASIL D functional safety and information security, accredited by DAkkS, Germany's national accreditation body. The certification was evaluated and issued by SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd. (SGS), a globally recognized certification authority.

ISO 26262 is the internationally recognized core standard for automotive functional safety. Within this framework, ASIL D represents the highest automotive safety integrity level, requiring near-zero tolerance for safety-critical failures. Achieving an ASIL D certification accredited by DAkkS signifies that the certified product meets the highest globally accepted standards for automotive safety.

The certified Quark E-Drive power domain control system has been in production use since February 2025, and is now deployed across multiple models under GAC's brands - HYPTEC and AION. As the industry's first electric drive power domain system based on deep integration using a single main control chip, the solution significantly reduces chip count, minimizes risks associated with chip-level failures, and boosts motor controller efficiency to as high as 99.9%. The certification confirms that GAC has completed the system's full product development lifecycle in strict compliance with ISO 26262:2018 functional safety and ISO/SAE 21434:2021 information security standards.

Throughout the project, GAC Technology Research Center worked closely with SGS experts, strengthening safety design across all development phases while ensuring engineering feasibility and an optimal user experience.

Zhao Hui, Vice President of SGS China, commented: "The successful certification highlights GAC's strong team and robust development systems. We are pleased to support the safety of the Quark E-Drive and look forward to closer collaboration."

This milestone represents a major breakthrough for GAC in e-drive safety and sets a new global benchmark for the intelligent electric vehicle industry.
