ASUS solidifies commitment to sustaining an incredible future, collects over one ton of recyclable waste with CORA

ASUS concludes its partnership with the nonprofit organization CORA, marking the end of a successful three-phased project. This project involved ASUS employees, partners, dealers, and the public, all dedicated to sustainability and the reduction of plastic waste.


PASIG CITY, Philippines, October 12, 2023 — ASUS firmly underscores its dedication to a sustainable future, actively pursuing a circular economy. In collaboration with the nonprofit organization CORA (Communities Organized for Resource Allocation). ASUS achieved a significant milestone, collecting 1.67 tons of plastic and recyclable waste. Moreover, the ASUS x CORA sustainability campaign comprised three distinct phases. Each phase engaged a wide range of stakeholders, fostering eco-friendly product adoption, waste reduction, enhanced awareness of the circular economy and climate action, and educating individuals on eco-conscious living.

“At ASUS, we believe that innovation and sustainability go hand in hand. As we continue innovating our products, we strive to be more sustainable. We are immensely thankful for everyone, including our partner CORA, the ASUS Philippines employees, our partners, dealers, and all the Filipinos who helped us in this meaningful mission to protect and save our environment through recycling plastic and other everyday waste, giving them a second life, and promoting a sustainable and incredible future for the people and the planet,”

ASUS Philippines Country Manager George Su said.

Back in 2007, ASUS introduced its inaugural sustainable notebook. The ASUS Bamboo Series, which garnered extensive environmental certifications and recognition for its groundbreaking engineering and design. Furthermore, In early 2023, ASUS furthered its sustainability commitment by launching the most environmentally-friendly Zenbook to date, the Zenbook S 13 OLED (UX5304). Additionally, the said product underscores the company’s 2025 Sustainability Goals and dedication to environmental responsibility.

Taking a substantial leap toward circular product design, the Zenbook S 13 OLED holds the distinction of being an EPEAT Gold registered product. Also, it positively impacts the environment throughout its entire lifecycle. This encompasses aspects such as material utilization, manufacturing, assembly, use, and end-of-life considerations.

Circular economy starts with us

ASUS organized a knowledge-sharing event for its employees. The ASUStainable Solution: Circular Economy Starts with Us, in collaboration with CORA. In addition with its Circular Center Women Champions (CCWC). During this event, CORA and CCWC shed light on the Philippines’ current plastic scenario. They educated ASUS employees on their role in promoting a circular economy by recycling common household items, such as plastic bottles.

Beyond inspiring personal change, the workshop encouraged employees to share their newfound knowledge with family and friends. Furthermore, following the seminar, ASUS employees engaged in a two-month recycling campaign, collecting plastic bottles, soft plastics, sibak, colored paper, and cartons. They utilized CORA’s Eco-Ikot Center pop-up, which featured dedicated trash bins within the ASUS office.

Importantly, ASUS employees successfully gathered a total of 840.6 kg of waste. This waste was then transported to CORA’s partner, Sentinel Upcycling Technologies, where it was transformed into high-quality products like benches, school chairs, and mobile trash bins.

As part of ASUS’s commitment to innovation and value creation under the ASUS 2025 Sustainability Goals, they donated two ASUS Zenbook laptops to CORA. This donation aims to assist CORA in handling administrative tasks, such as data recording for their Eco-Ikot Center in Parañaque City and overseeing other initiatives and collaborations with both public and private organizations.

The CORA Eco-Ikot Center represents an inclusive and comprehensive recycling system, allowing communities to trade recyclables for points. These points can then be exchanged for various incentives. Distinguished as the first of its kind in the Philippines and globally, CORA’s Eco-Ikot Center provides a sustainable resolution to combat the plastic pollution crisis.

ASUS x CORA Mall Caravan

In the second phase, ASUS introduced CORA Eco-Ikot Center pop-ups in three ASUS Exclusive Stores. To enable Filipinos to conveniently recycle and decrease plastic waste. In return for clean and dry plastic bottles, participants received ASUS and CORA merchandise. Moreover, the CCWCs enlightened them and other mallgoers about the concept of a circular economy and the advantages of recycling common plastic waste.

Furthermore, mallgoers had the opportunity to explore the Zenbook S 13 OLED. They can gain insights into the importance of endorsing and utilizing eco-friendly products, thereby strengthening ASUS’s commitment to sustainability.

The ASUS x CORA Mall Caravan successfully gathered over 1,100 plastic bottles, equivalent to 28.5 kg, during events held at SM Cyberzone in Megamall, North EDSA, and Mall of Asia.

Celebrating International Coastal Cleanup Day

In the final leg, ASUS marked the 2023 International Coastal Cleanup Day by leading a cleanup effort at the Las Piñas-Parañaque Wetland Park (LPPWP) shore. Zenbook S 13 OLED Ambassador and CORA Founder Antoinette Taus spearheaded the initiative, joined by volunteers from ASUS employees, media, influencers, partners, and dealers. Together, this group of 75 volunteers successfully collected 646.2 kg of plastic waste, Styrofoam, rubber materials, and stuffed toys. The collected waste was meticulously segregated for recycling through CORA’s recycling partner.

The data obtained during this event will prove invaluable in aiding CORA and government agencies in addressing the pressing waste issue in Manila Bay, a significant section of the Manila Bay coast holding an alarming estimated 9.46 billion pieces of plastic waste.

Additionally, United Nations Goodwill Ambassador and CORA Founder Antoinette Taus emphasized the importance of waste reduction and responsible waste disposal within a circular economy framework.

ASUS Global and its local markets collaborated to make substantial advancements in sustainability. The recently published ASUS 2022 Sustainability Report underscores these achievements, highlighting that ASUS surpassed ENERGY STAR standards by 34%. Furthermore, eco-friendly products accounted for a notable 87% of total product revenue. These accomplishments have earned ASUS numerous 2023 Asia Sustainability Reporting Awards and international acclaim. Looking ahead, ASUS is committed to pursuing both local and global initiatives aimed at becoming a net-zero enterprise by 2050.

Filipino-Korean Youn Dongyeon Makes Official Debut with Rookie K-Pop Group “POW”

Another Filipino has officially entered the South Korean K-Pop scene. After Chanty (aka Chantal Videla) from the rookie all-girl K-Pop group Lapillus, let’s introduce Filipino-Korean Youn Dongyeon (or Justin Lajo) from the newly formed five-member male K-Pop group “POW.”

Meet Youn Dongyeon

Some of you may recall the name Dongyeon from 2021 when he became a JYP Entertainment trainee, creating a buzz for his name by joining SBS’s survival reality show “LOUD.” Furthermore, he gained media attention in the Philippines by showcasing his Filipino heritage on the show. Moreover, he was part of the JYP team, best known for his top-tier dancing skills.

Photo Credit: @pow_grid on IG.

Personally, I believe that Dongyeon, affectionately called Dodong by his Filipino mother, possesses a unique groove, charm, and talent. I have actively campaigned for him on my social media to secure votes from the Philippines. My friend, Filipina actress Devon Seron, also supported him during his time on “LOUD”.

Although he received high votes in the global voting during the show, he unfortunately faced elimination in the 7th round.

After his elimination, he remained largely out of the public eye. Additionally, he deactivated his personal Instagram. During those years, he transferred to Fantagio and trained under ASTRO’s company until signing with the newly founded company GRID Entertainment.

With Dongyeon now at GRID Entertainment, he and four other members underwent rigorous training until their debut as K-Pop group POW on September 14th.

Introducing POW: A New K-Pop Boy Band You Don’t Want to Miss

Attention, K-pop enthusiasts! If you’re on the lookout for a new boy band to stan, you need not look any further than the rookie group, POW.

Comprising five members, the group has just made their debut with “POW 1st EP: favorite.” This EP features four exciting new K-Pop tracks: “Dazzling,” “Slow Dancing,” “Amazing,” and “Favorite,” the latter serving as their carrier single, officially released today (October 11) on all major music streaming platforms worldwide.

Furthermore, the music video for “Favorite” was released on September 12, along with their showcase performances on Inkigayo, SHOW! MusicCore, MCountdown, and Music Bank within the same week, as part of their promotional activities.

Meet the talented members of POW: Yorch, Jungbin, Hyunbin, Donyeon, and Hong.

Among them, Yorch Yongsin stands out as a globally recognized member of POW. He’s a Thai actor-singer who began his career in the Thai entertainment industry as a child actor. Notably, Yorch has over 2 million Instagram followers. Additionally, he was formerly part of the pre-debut group “Trainee A” under Big Hit Music (HYBE), though, regrettably, the team disbanded before their official debut.

Yorch

The remaining three members are full-blood Koreans: Jungbin, who serves as the group’s leader, Hyunbin, and Hong, the youngest (maknae) of the group.

Watching their live performances and listening to their music, it’s evident that POW is a fusion of diverse talents and charismatic individuals, shaping a promising future in the world of K-pop music. If you’re a proud Pinoy, let’s rally behind Dongyeon and support POW!

Dolly de Leon, Zanjoe Marudo, and Elijah Canlas Star in the Quintessential Netflix Family Drama this Holiday Season

Grab your lumpia & ready the tissues for this heartwarming family drama by Netflix!

Christmas lights are on, bibingka vendors are lining up the streets, and the family holiday plans are abundant – that’s right, Pasko na naman! And what better way to tide the family holidays over than with a heartwarming film that’ll surely hit all the right notes (pun intended)?

Keys to the Heart is the Filipino remake of the beloved Korean film of the same name, starring Zanjoe Marudo as Joma. He plays the role of a washed-up boxer whose life takes an unexpected turn when he is suddenly reunited with his estranged mother Sylvia, played by Dolly de Leon, and his brother Jayjay, portrayed by Elijah Canlas. Recently fired from his job, Joma reluctantly agrees to stay at his mother’s house, where he is eventually left to care for his special-needs brother, a piano virtuoso preparing to participate in a prestigious music competition.

Aside from top-notch acting and the chaotic (yet oddly familiar) family plot line, here’s why you should add Netflix’s Keys to the Heart to your holiday watchlist.

It shows that families aren’t always perfect – and that it’s okay.

At the heart of Keys to the Heart lies its central theme: the reconciliation between Joma and his mother, Sylvia, whose awkward reunion is shadowed by a shared tragedy from decades past. Joma, hardened by years of living on his own, is suddenly thrust into an unconventional family unit, attempting to find his place alongside a mother he barely knows and a brother he had never intended to connect with. In a world often dominated by idealized images of family dynamics, the film beautifully portrays the complexities and raw emotions that come with reuniting fractured families. It provides a refreshing reminder that real families are far from perfect–and that it’s absolutely okay. We’re reminded that familial love – in all its messy, unpredictable, and sometimes heartbreaking nature – can thrive amidst these imperfections.

It touches on the theme of forgiveness.

Christmas is often associated with themes of giving, kindness, goodwill, and most importantly, forgiveness – which masterfully portrayed in Keys to the Heart. Over time, even the gritty Joma finds himself becoming protective of a brother he initially wanted nothing to do with and showing concern for a mother he despised. We witness his journey of letting go of the grudges and letting in compassion and understanding – virtues some of us might struggle to embrace, especially during the holiday season.

It emphasizes the magic of and in music.

And what’s Filipino Christmas without music? Or better yet, what are Filipinos without music, period? One of the most significant aspects of the film is embedded into Jayjay’s musical ingenuity; it underscores the enchanting magic of music, laced throughout the narrative and into the lives of its characters. These transformative melodies bring healing and solace – not only for the characters but also for the viewers. Keys to the Heart reminds us that music, as a universal and unifying language, has the extraordinary power to touch and transform the hearts of people.

It teaches us the value of perseverance.

An effective Christmas movie not only brings joy to the viewers, but also imparts valuable lessons that carry into the new year. And what better way to show that but with tenacious protagonists who carry on and persevere amid their circumstances? There’s Joma and his dedication to his craft – even after years of being stripped of his boxing license – and Jayjay with music and how he, in his own ways, pushes through in spite of his special needs. Together, the two remind us of possibilities and the strength and power of resilience.

It is simple yet comforting–a perfect watch for the holidays!

As the holiday season nears, we seek the cozy embrace of heartwarming films that capture the spirit of togetherness paired with the magic of the season, and Keys to the Heart effortlessly captures that through moments of laughter, tears, and heart-stirring moments. With a beautifully uncomplicated storyline, it offers a much-needed respite from the hustle and bustle of the season – and of life, really.

Prepare to be moved, entertained, and inspired by this Filipino remake. Watch Keys to the Heart, now showing on Netflix. Check out the trailer below:

The Philosophy of the OPPO Find N3 Flip’s outer screen

The Philosophy of the OPPO Find N3 Flip’s outer screen

When OPPO launched the Find N2 Flip, it had the largest cover screen of any flip phone in the market. With an impressive 3.26-inch large display, it brought a revolutionary upgrade to the experience of the Flip phone.

After the Find N2 Flip, OPPO saw the entire industry following their lead in this direction, with the size of cover screens on flip phones getting larger and larger.

With the announcement of the OPPO Find N3 Flip, OPPO once again sets the standard in the user’s overall experience by introducing enhancements in its latest flip smartphone. 

Vertical is Better

OPPO had a choice when making the OPPO Find N3 Flip: follow the trend and try and make the biggest cover screen once again, or think differently.

They went back and took a serious look at what kind of cover screen provides the best user experience.

Considering the daily scenarios users encounter and OPPO’s in-depth understanding of its global users, they still believe that “Vertical is Better.”

Selfies with Vertically No Crop

When you use the cover screen to take selfies, you can see the full preview. 

It’s so familiar – the same orientation as your smartphone screen. It’s also the same orientation as the phone’s camera sensor. This means it captures photos with virtually no crop. What you literally see is what you get.

Compared to other products, although they can display more now by increasing the size of the cover screen, it is still evident that whether it’s people or the background, the vertical cover screen of the OPPO Find N3 Flip can provide a better preview of more content, helping users compose their shots more effectively and confidently.

Bigger is Better

Most Android apps are designed to work on a vertical screen. Therefore, the vertical cover screen of the OPPO Find N3 Flip gives a more natural and intuitive experience.  The bigger screen can also display more information.

Compared to other products, the OPPO Find N3 Flip can provide previews of more text messages and emails (e.g.Gmail) and showing more of the conversation details (e.g. WhatsApp).

It can also display more complete social media posts (X/Twitter). Other products can only show a portion of the text. The OPPO Find N3 Flip allows users to see both text and the entire four accompanying images.

These differences are not solely determined by screen size but are the most noticeable efficiency disparities users experience in their daily lives.

The Next-Level Cover Screen Experience

Over the past few months, OPPO has been working with its partners like Google to fine-tune the experience for each app to make sure all the supporting apps scale as well as possible on the cover screen. 

Out of the box, the OPPO Find N3 Flip will support dozens of the most popular apps on the cover screen. This includes Google apps like Phone, Maps, Keep, and Gmail, as well as other popular apps social media, short video, music streaming and food delivery apps, and car-hailing services, maps, online payment solutions and more.

Answer the phone with Google Dial, play a fun GameSnacks game, hail a taxi with Grab, navigate with Google Maps, check your social media – swiping through posts and videos, or even reply to messages in Telegram with a Google keyboard, and you can do all of that without having to open up the phone.

More apps will be added on OPPO Find N3 Flip’s powerful cover screen through future software updates.

With the new app support, OPPO believes users will experience the next-level cover screen experience on the OPPO Find N3 Flip.

For more information and for more updates on the OPPO Find N3 Flip, visit OPPO Philippines’ official website at www.oppo.com.ph/ or its official Facebook page at OPPO Philippines.
