RIYADH, Saudi Arabia, May 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DDPAI hosted its exclusive VIP Product Experience Event in Riyadh, gathering invited guests for a premium, invitation-only experience under the theme “DDPAI SmartGuard.” Set against an elegant backdrop, the event reflected the brand’s core philosophy—“For Everyone’s Journey Safety”—while unveiling innovations tailored to the evolving needs of Middle Eastern drivers.

At the heart of the event was DDPAI’s holistic approach to smart driving safety. Rather than focusing solely on hardware upgrades, the brand introduced its SmartGuard concept—an integrated solution combining intelligent imaging, real-time connectivity, and all-scenario protection. Showcased products like the new Z60 Pro, DDPAI’s flagship 3-channel dash cam, demonstrated how advanced imaging and remote features can elevate daily driving safety to a new level. Meanwhile, the upgraded N5 4G brought radar-assisted parking surveillance into the spotlight—now enhanced by 4G remote connectivity. This powerful combination enables instant motion sensing, real-time alerts, and even two-way voice communication, transforming passive monitoring into an active, responsive defense system—no matter how far you are from the vehicle.

Together, these innovations underscored DDPAI’s commitment to intelligent, seamless protection—on the road and beyond.

A true highlight of the evening was the world debut of the Z60 Pro Golden Edition—a luxury limited-edition.

The event concluded with a reaffirmation of DDPAI’s long-term vision for the region. As the brand continues to deepen its presence in the Middle East, it remains focused on local adaptation, smart imaging, and user-centric innovation. Through SmartGuard, DDPAI aims to shape a premium driving experience that seamlessly integrates safety, technology, and lifestyle.

From intelligent protection to luxury-grade innovation, DDPAI stands beside its users—protecting every journey, every mile.

Regional links enhanced and 24 bilateral accords reached

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 15 May 2025 – A delegation of more than 50 business leaders from Hong Kong and Mainland China, led by Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) John Lee, concluded a fruitful visit to Kuwait yesterday (May 14), reaching a raft of bilateral accords and paving the way for closer links between Hong Kong and Middle East.

“We are here to better understand the opportunities of Kuwaiti business and investment. To explore how Hong Kong, Mainland China and Kuwait, working together, can create long-term mutual opportunities,” Mr Lee told nearly 300 local business leaders attending a luncheon themed “Partnering for Success – Hong Kong as a ‘Super Connector’ and ‘Super Value-Adder’”.

At the luncheon, government departments, enterprises, and organisations from Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Kuwait exchanged and announced 24 memoranda of understanding (MOUs) and co-operation agreements, covering areas such as economy and trade, investment, financial services, technology, legal co-operation, cargo clearance and flow, aviation, post-secondary education and sports. These include a new MOU signed between the Airport Authority Hong Kong and Kuwait Airways, aimed at enhancing aviation connectivity between the two regions.

Mr Lee further announced that, from today (May 15) the United Arab Emirates will grant Hong Kong 30-day visa-free access, while Oman will extend its visa-free period from 10 to 14 days.

Hong Kong is exploring closer ties with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which includes Kuwait currently holding presidency. Mr Lee said the country wields significant influence in the region’s development.

“Hong Kong’s trade with the GCC last year reached nearly US$20 billion, up 53 per cent over the past four years. And that robust growth is underpinned by our mutual will to advance trade ties,” Mr Lee said. “Indeed, our burgeoning trade and investment co-operation, I believe, could well add momentum to the possibility of a free trade agreement between Hong Kong and the GCC.”

Earlier, (May 13) Mr Lee met with the Amir of the State of Kuwait, His Highness Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, Crown Prince His Highness Sheikh Sabah Al-Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Mubarak Al-Sabah, and Acting Prime Minister His Excellency Sheikh Fahad Yousuf Saud Al-Sabah, to exchange views on strengthening co-operation between Hong Kong and Kuwait including areas such as finance, trade, and innovation and technology.

Mr Lee highlighted that Hong Kong enjoys the advantage of connecting China with the world under the “one country, two systems” principle. He welcomed the Kuwaiti Government and enterprises to utilise Hong Kong’s role as a “super connector” and “super value-adder” to explore new opportunities under the Belt and Road Initiative for mutual benefit.

The Chief Executive led delegation members on several company visits in Kuwait. These included Bukhamseen Group Holding Company, where he introduced Hong Kong’s development opportunities and its highly internationalised and market-oriented business environment with its pool of professional services talent.

Mr Lee and the delegation also visited Zain Group, a major mobile telecommunications company, to learn about its business in innovative technologies and digital communications, and exchange views on topics such as drones, AI, and smart city development.

On the cultural front, Mr Lee toured the Sheikh Abdullah Al Salem Cultural Centre to learn about Kuwait’s arts and culture projects and developments. He noted that both Hong Kong and Kuwait place importance on arts and culture development, and he said he looks forward to further deepening connections and co-operation in cultural exchanges between the two places.
