Celebrating Six Decades of Vital Water Supply: Jiangxi's Dongjiang River Sustains Hong Kong's Growth

Special Anniversary Campaign Explores Water Source Conservation Efforts in Sanbai Mountains

GANZHOU, China, July 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a symbolic ceremony held on July 23 in the pristine Sanbai Mountains of Jiangxi Province, journalists and cultural leaders from across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) received commemorative water bottles containing samples from the Dongjiang River source. "The water tastes as pure today as it did six decades ago," participants noted, highlighting the remarkable consistency of this vital water supply that has sustained the GBA region since 1965.

The media contingent from Hong Kong stood in reflection before the Guardian Stone at the Siyuan Pavilion, describing the Dongjiang as "the lifeline that has supported Hong Kong's development for 60 years." The moment was part of a special anniversary campaign A Stream of Clear Water Flows to Hong Kong, which brought together more than 20 prominent journalists and cultural figures from across the GBA. Organized by the Cyberspace Administration of Ganzhou, the four-day ecological tour through Anyuan, Xunwu, and Dingnan counties spotlights ongoing water conservation efforts while documenting the historic water supply journey through multimedia storytelling. 

Upon arrival in Ganzhou, the delegation traveled to Anyuan's Sanbai Mountains, a protected ecological sanctuary where a strict logging ban has preserved the Dongjiang River's headwaters for the past six decades. Since its launch in 1965, the Dongjiang-Shenzhen Water Supply Project has delivered over 30 billion cubic meters of freshwater to Hong Kong. Data from Hong Kong's Water Supplies Department confirms that Dongjiang water consistently meets China's stringent Grade I surface water quality standards, with 820 million cubic meters supplied to Hong Kong in 2024 alone—fulfilling approximately 80% of the city's freshwater needs.

The engraved vow on the Guardian Stone—"We must protect the source of the Dongjiang River"—struck a chord with the visiting GBA delegates, who share a collective reliance on the crucial waterway. A conversation with Gong Longshou, a Sanbai Mountains forest ranger with over 40 years of service, gave visiting journalists a firsthand look at the community's long-standing commitment to ecological protection. After witnessing the source of this six-decade lifeline, the journalists from Hong Kong expressed a renewed interest in returning to further document the region's natural beauty and conservation efforts.

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At CES 2026, Flowtica was not the loudest presence on the show floor. Over the course of the week, however, the Singapore-based AI company became one of the most closely watched, drawing sustained attention from media, investors, and industry observers.

That attention has now translated into availability. Following its appearance as a CES 2026 Innovation Award Honoree, Flowtica has officially opened sales of Flowtica Scribe, its AI recording pen that quietly stood out in a field dominated by phone-dependent and screen-heavy solutions.

Flowtica Scribe did not make its first public appearance at CES. The product launched on Kickstarter several months earlier, where it attracted thousands of users and established early validation. CES marked a different stage for the company. The focus shifted away from introduction and toward closer examination, with many observers asking whether the idea could hold up beyond early enthusiasm.

Throughout the exhibition, Flowtica's booth at Eureka Park became a steady meeting point for investors and journalists. Conversations rarely centered on specifications or feature lists. Instead, discussions focused on a more fundamental question: whether AI recording tools are beginning to converge on forms that genuinely fit into professional life.

Flowtica's answer was visible in its choice of form. By embedding AI into a pen, an object already accepted in boardrooms, consultations, investor meetings, and sales conversations, the company avoided many of the social and practical frictions that continue to limit phone-based recorders. The result was a device that felt less like a new category of gadget and more like a natural extension of existing behavior.

This restraint is deliberate. Flowtica Scribe is designed to remain unobtrusive, with no screen and no demand for user attention during conversations. Recording, organization, and interpretation take place quietly in the background, allowing users to remain focused on the discussion itself. Among on-site observers, this approach positioned Flowtica as one of the more pragmatic entrants in an increasingly crowded AI recording market.

Hardware, however, represents only part of Flowtica's differentiation. The company places equal emphasis on what happens after recording ends. Its AI functions as a continuously evolving insight system that can operate autonomously while remaining responsive to clear user guidance when needed. Over time, it adapts to individual working rhythms and priorities, shifting the emphasis from capturing everything to identifying what truly matters.

Rather than simply storing conversations, Flowtica helps determine which moments should be retained, revisited, and translated into next actions. Key insights are designed to integrate naturally with existing productivity tools, including calendars and task systems, allowing them to fit into established workflows rather than compete with them.

As interest in Flowtica Scribe built during CES, one question surfaced repeatedly. When would the product be available beyond the show floor?

With sales now officially open through Flowtica's website, the company moves from exhibition attention to real-world deployment. For Flowtica, this moment appears less like a conclusion and more like a transition, from being observed to being used.

As the AI recording market continues to mature, competition is shifting away from novelty and early adoption toward durability. The defining question is no longer whether a system can record conversations, but whether it can remain useful over time.

Flowtica enters this next phase with an approach that is measured and quietly confident, placing its bet not on spectacle, but on long-term relevance.
