  MANILA, September 28, 2026 - The Mills Global Customs Brokerage Inc. is expanding its international network while putting compliance at the beginning of the shipment process. The Philippine company now works with 31 partners across the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia to support businesses trading across borders. For The Mills Global, customs work starts before cargo moves. Its team reviews import requirements, permits, tariff classification, and shipping documents early, giving clients time to address questions that might otherwise surface when a shipment reaches the port. “By the time cargo arrives, many of the decisions that affect its clearance have already been made,” said Atty. Jeanne Hazel Maulit, founder of The Mills Global. “We want to be part of those decisions earlier, so clients know what is required before they commit to a shipment.” The international network gives Philippine exporters access to partners in their destination markets. It also suppor...

   Casino Plus, one of the country’s leading responsible digital entertainment platforms licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), has once again demonstrated why it remains the country's most trusted online gaming destination — this time, with the seamless, secure payout of a historic ₱122,409,603 jackpot, the biggest verified jackpot in Philippine slot machine history. The landmark payout underscores more than the sheer size of the record-breaking win. It demonstrates Casino Plus’ commitment to ensuring that legitimate player winnings are verified, processed, and paid securely and in full, in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.

At the center of this commitment is a ₱1-billion surety bond secured through PhilFirst Insurance — a legally binding financial gu...

Security and facilities work is running into a labour wall. The jobs built around watching screens and walking the same route are the ones younger workers will not take. At the same time, boards are asking those businesses for immediate efficiency gain from technology. Ademco Security Group today launched UltraSenSync, an in-house vision AI platform built for that bind. The company is betting that the next decade of security, facilities and business operations will be won by organisations that can see what is happening without parking more people in front of desks.

  Trans-Asiatic Trading is putting a spotlight on its Gerflor marine flooring portfolio, reinforcing the case for safety-first interior systems as the baseline expectation for fleet operators, not an optional upgrade. The showcase brings together the full range of IMO-compliant and Wheelmark-approved Streamo products, Karavel, Mariner, and Steamer, alongside Gerflor's studded rubber tiles and skirting accessories, giving operators a complete look at what a fully compliant vessel interior can look like from deck to wall. The timing reflects where the industry is heading. Regulators and surveyors are placing increasing scrutiny on interior materials, not just structural and mechanical systems, and fleet operators are under growing pressure to demonstrate that every deck, corridor, and passenger area meets fire safety and slip resistance standards. Gerflor's Streamo range was built for exactly this scrutiny, engineered to IMO fire test protocols with slip resistance suited to hig...

The beneficiaries from Barangay 191 – Zone 20, Barangay Electrical, Pasay City have been hit particularly hard, caught between heavy urban flooding and ongoing local construction disruptions.
