Aug 14, 2020

August 14, 2020 - /PressAdvantage/ - Anaheim, California – The Lighthouse Treatment Center, a drug and alcohol treatment facility in Anaheim, CA, is hosting a kayaking and paddle boarding outing on August 15 as a part of its Lighthouse Alumni Program. The initiative aims to provide a fun summer event for its alumni members while still maintaining social distancing measures.

According to Jocel Bibera, Alumni Coordinator of the Lighthouse, they have been looking for activities that alumni members can still enjoy together but they want to make sure that attending these events will be safe.

“Social isolation can be very difficult in recovery that’s why we want to continue hosting safe outdoor events for our alumni members. Our kayaking and paddle boarding event is a great activity to have during these difficult times because it allows all of us to practice social distancing outdoors while still having fun as a group,” said Bibera.

Lighthouse alumnus, Ari Lim, shared her excitement for the upcoming event, saying that it’s helpful that these alumni activities are still ongoing even during the Covoid-19 pandemic.

“I’m very excited to go paddle boarding this weekend with my Lighthouse Alumni family. It’s been hard to find socially distant activities during this pandemic. The Lighthouse has been great with providing safe summer fun for people in recovery,” said Ari.

Brandy F., a lighthouse alumnus, shared that this is a new experience that will help new alumni recognize that they can have fun in sobriety.

“I’m so grateful to the Lighthouse for putting on these opportunities. I’ve never been paddle boarding before and I’m looking forward to a relaxing day on the water and enjoying this new experience,” said Brandy.

Shinhan's Lotte Insurance deal faces profitability, capital hurdles

Shinhan's Lotte Insurance deal faces profitability, capital hurdles

Shinhan Financial Group is seeking to bolster its nonbank operations by acquiring Lotte Insurance, but analysts cautioned Thursday that a meaningful contribution to group earnings may take time, as the insurer could require substantial additional capital to strengthen its financial position. Concerns over the cost of the deal weighed on Shinhan shares, which plunged 4.31 percent Wednesday following Tuesday’s announcement and fell a further 0.84 percent Thursday. The group agreed Tuesday to purchase a 77.04 percent stake in Lotte Insurance from private equity firm JKL Partners for 693.3 billion won ($514.6 million). After securing regulatory approval, it plans to acquire the remaining shares and eventually merge the insurer with its existing subsidiary, Shinhan EZ General Insurance. Lotte Insurance has 14 trillion won in assets and 3.34 million customers, giving Shinhan a substantially larger foothold in non-life insurance. The financial group aims to raise annual profit from the business to at least 120 billion won within three years. But market analysts warned that the insurer’s wea

FSC's relocation to Sejong stirs unease across financial industry

The Financial Services Commission’s (FSC) planned relocation to the administrative city of Sejong next year is raising concerns across the financial industry about potential disruptions to communication with regulators and the resulting operational inefficiencies, industry officials said Thursday. Industry officials are particularly concerned that the move could make it harder for banks and securities firms, most of which are headquartered in Seoul, to consult financial authorities on regulatory matters. The country's top financial regulator, currently based in Seoul, plans to move to Sejong, about 110 kilometers to the south, in the second half of 2027. The move is part of a broader government plan to relocate 44 central government agencies and affiliated bodies from the Seoul metropolitan area to Sejong between 2027 and 2031, aiming to decentralize functions concentrated in the capital area and promote regional growth. Banks are weighing how to adapt, with some expecting to rely more heavily on remote communication. "We expect to establish ways to respond, including expanding the use

Hansae Mobility opens Uzbekistan plant to expand Central Asian business

QUVASOY, Uzbekistan — Hansae Mobility, a Korean automotive parts manufacturer supplying global carmakers, has expanded its overseas production capacity with the completion of a new plant in Quvasoy, in Uzbekistan's Fergana Region. Hansae Yes24 Group's automotive parts subsidiary held a completion ceremony for the plant Tuesday (local time) in a free economic zone in Quvasoy. The facility is operated by Hansae Mobility Turan, an Uzbekistan subsidiary wholly owned by Hansae Mobility. The ceremony was attended by Hansae Mobility CEO and Hansae Vice Chairman Kim Ik-whan, Mirzohid Murodilovich, deputy governor of Fergana Region, and other officials and representatives from Korea and Uzbekistan. The plant is expected to enable Hansae Mobility to supply its products more quickly to clients in Uzbekistan and expand its customer base in neighboring countries across the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Before the plant opened, Hansae Mobility had to export the parts from Korea. The new facility adds to the company's existing manufacturing bases in Daegu, the U.S. state of Michigan and t

SK, Samsung among Korean firms considering Westinghouse stake acquisition

Major Korean companies including Samsung, SK and Doosan are considering participating in the acquisition of a stake in U.S. nuclear power company Westinghouse, according to industry sources. If private companies join nuclear cooperation between Korea and the United States, which has so far been led largely by state-run companies such as Korea Electric Power Corp. (KEPCO) and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP), the move is expected to give Korean companies greater momentum in entering the U.S. nuclear power market. Government and industry sources said Wednesday that the government has been surveying nuclear power-related companies about their interest in investing in Westinghouse since announcing its investment plans in the United States. Companies interested in participating recently gathered at a meeting hosted by KEPCO to discuss potential investment options, according to the sources. Samsung C&T, SK Group, Hyundai Engineering & Construction and Doosan Enerbility were among the companies that attended the meeting. Securing a stake in Westinghouse is one of the key issues in investment

Taihan Cable & Solution wins large US power grid turnkey project

Taihan Cable & Solution, a leading power cable and energy infrastructure manufacturer, said Thursday that its U.S. subsidiary has won a turnkey extra-high-voltage grid project in the United States, capitalizing on surging power demand from artificial intelligence (AI) and data centers. Under the deal, the subsidiary, T.E.USA, will oversee local engineering, construction and other work, while the Korean headquarters will produce and supply key materials such as extra-high-voltage cables and joints. In a turnkey contract, a single company handles a project from design through construction and hands it over ready for operation. The headquarters and the U.S. unit signed a material supply contract worth about 120 billion won ($89 million), which the company disclosed in a regulatory filing Thursday. Taihan did not reveal the total value of the turnkey project or the client, citing a nondisclosure agreement. The order follows another extra-high-voltage turnkey project worth about 100 billion won that the company won in the U.S. in January. Taihan said it has won all 500-kilovolt high-voltage a

CJ ONE launches global membership service for foreign visitors

CJ OliveNetworks, the digital and technology unit of CJ Group, is branching into the travel industry with a new global membership service that enables foreign visitors in Korea to earn rewards and redeem points at participating merchants, leveraging the country's tourism boom to drive new growth. The company said Thursday that its lifestyle membership platform, CJ ONE, had introduced CJ ONE Global, allowing international visitors to sign up using only email verification, without requiring a Korean phone number or domestic identification. The launch comes as interest in Korean food, shopping and culture spreads alongside the global popularity of Korean entertainment. According to the Korea Tourism Organization, about 12.8 million foreign tourists visited Korea from January through July, up 21.3 percent from the same period last year. Once registered, members receive a mobile barcode through the CJ ONE app that they can use to earn and redeem points at participating stores, as well as access new-member and birthday benefits. The service connects visitors with businesses spanning tourism, re

FADU unveils world's 1st file-semantic SSD to power AI workloads

Korean data center chipmaker FADU has unveiled what it calls the world’s first file-semantic solid-state drive (SSD), a storage technology designed to help artificial intelligence (AI) systems access data faster while reducing computing overhead and power consumption. The company introduced its file-semantic SSD, or FS-SSD, at the 2026 Open Compute Project Global Summit in San Jose, California, which ran from Monday to Thursday under the theme “Scaling Innovation for the AI Era.” Unlike conventional SSDs, which manage data through block addresses, FADU’s FS-SSD is designed to recognize and manage files directly, shifting tasks traditionally handled by a server’s central processing unit and operating system into the storage device itself. The technology uses FADU’s sixth-generation SSD controller, equipped with firmware that handles file searches, access permissions and file-to-address translation within the drive. By embedding file requests in standard Non-Volatile Memory Express commands, the system allows accelerators such as graphics processing units and data processing un

Korean, US biz leaders call for support to accelerate Korean investment projects in US

Korean and U.S. business leaders on Thursday called for faster regulatory approvals, tax and financial support, and visa reforms to ensure the successful implementation of major Korean investment projects in the United States. The call came in a joint declaration issued at a plenary meeting of the U.S.-Korea and Korea-U.S. Business Council, hosted by the Federation of Korean Industries (FKI), and attended by about 60 political and business leaders and experts from the two countries. Earlier this month, U.S. President Donald Trump announced details of Seoul's planned $200 billion investment in the U.S., part of a broader $350 billion commitment agreed to by the two countries last year in exchange for lower U.S. tariffs on Korean goods. In the joint declaration, the business circles called for measures to reduce trade uncertainty and reform regulations, urging the two governments to introduce fast-track approval procedures and provide tax and financial incentives for companies participating in strategic investment projects. They also called for improvements to visa systems and the establis
