Botanee Group, Together With Its Brand Winona, Presents Gifts for the Golden Jubilee of China-Thailand Relations
Winona enters the Thai market
Beneath the vibrant lights of ICONSIAM in Bangkok, Botanee, a pioneer in functional skincare rooted in Yunnan, China's treasure house of biodiversity – continuously screened the group's development context from the snow-capped mountains of Yunnan to world-leading laboratories at the elaborately constructed Winona popup booth. As a brand that has ranked first in China's functional skincare market for many years, Winona's parent company, Botanee Group, continues to deepen a global collaboration model between industry, university, research and pharmaceutical sectors. In addition to the two R&D centers in Shanghai and Kunming, China, the company has established cutting-edge laboratories in Paris, France and Tokyo, Japan, actively promoting international R&D exchanges and cooperation. At the beginning of 2024, Botanee's Southeast Asia headquarter in Bangkok, Thailand has officially started its operation. At present, it has successfully entered well-known Thai beauty channels such as BEAUTRIUM and EVEANDBOY offline stores. In Hong Kong and Macao, China, its products have also steadily entered the sales in Mannings stores, achieving a solid leap from "product export" to "brand export".
This "Botanee Week" event not only represents a consolidation and enhancement of the Thai market progress, but also serves as a strategic for the group to leverage Bangkok as a key hub to unlock more market opportunities in Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam and other countries. In the future, Botanee will continue to deepen its presence in this vibrant land, using China's scientific research strength as a brush to paint a wonderful new chapter of Chinese cosmetics going global.

I Asked ChatGTP What Trump's China Deal Means for the Middle Class — Here's What It Said
Rapidly shifting pieces have been synonymous with President Trump's trade policy — China included, according to AP News. Chinese producers sell more than $400 billion worth of goods in the U.S. annually, per Reuters. In order to help orient ourselves within all the changes right now, here's what ChatGTP said President Trump's latest deal with China means for middle-class finances. Check Out: For You: Tariff Reductions Are Partial, Short-Term Relief Tariffs aren't gone, but middle-class households face partial relief because of tariff reductions. A deal slashed U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%, according to Time Magazine. However, an average American family would still face a net hike of $2,300 to $2,800 a year in additional tariff-related costs. Trending Now: Consumer Prices Are Still Elevated Consumers continue to pay higher for everyday items, including electronics, clothing and appliances due to residual tariff burdens. Tariffs work like regressive taxes with those in the middle-class paying a larger share of income, per Bloomberg. Inflation and Reduced Purchasing Power Consumer Price Index (CPI) increases tied to tariffs could hit 1.3% to 2.3%, depending on whether all planned tariffs take effect, per Barron's. This is equivalent to a loss of $1,900 to $3,800 in real purchasing power per household annually. Uncertainty Hinders Business and Hiring Amidst pronounced uncertainty, businesses and consumers alike may be less inclined to make big changes or commitment. 'The stop-start nature of tariff implementation slows corporate investment, especially in manufacturing — limiting job growth and wage pressure. Consumer confidence can waver amid this uncertainty,' ChatGPT said. Risk of Retaliation and Spillover Any potential repercussions don't end just because tariffs end. Chinese retaliatory tariffs on U.S. exports could hit middle-class related industries, including autos, agriculture and manufacturing, leading to layoffs or price hikes. 'Ongoing tit-for-tat risks mean future prices and employment could shift again,' ChatGPT explained. So, What Are Your Next Moves? ChatGPT had four suggestions for what to do right now: Budget for inflation in your essential expenses, including groceries, clothes and electronics. Lock in rates for mortgage and loans sooner rather than later as uncertainty may affect financial markets. Track CPI and Fed signals. These reflect tariff-driven inflation trends. Diversify income streams to guard against local job or wage hits.

China releases AI action plan days after the U.S. as global tech race heats up
SHANGHAI — The tech race between the world's two largest economies just intensified. China on Saturday released a global action plan for artificial intelligence, calling for international cooperation on tech development and regulation. The news came as the annual state-organized World Artificial Intelligence Conference kicked off in Shanghai with an opening speech by Premier Li Qiang, who announced that the Chinese government has proposed the establishment of a global AI cooperation organization, according to an official readout. Days earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump announced an American action plan for AI that included calls to reduce alleged "woke" bias in AI models and support the deployment of U.S. tech overseas. "The two camps are now being formed," said George Chen, partner at the Asia Group and co-chair of the digital practice. "China clearly wants to stick to the multilateral approach while the U.S. wants to build its own camp, very much targeting the rise of China in the field of AI," Chen said. He noted how China may attract participants from its Belt and Road Initiative, while the U.S. will likely have the support of its allies, such as Japan and Australia. In his speech, Premier Li emphasized China's "AI plus" plan for integrating the tech across industries and said the country was willing to help other nations with the technology, especially in the Global South. The category loosely refers to less developed economies, especially countries outside the U.S. and European orbits. Since 2022, the U.S. has sought to restrict China's access to advanced semiconductors for training AI models. Earlier this month, U.S. chipmaker Nvidia said the U.S. was allowing it to resume shipments of a less advanced H20 chip to China after a roughly three-month pause. However, China has been developing homegrown alternatives, which Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang both praised and described as "formidable" during his third trip to China this month. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt met with Shanghai Party Secretary Chen Jining on Thursday in the city ahead of the AI conference, according to a city announcement. Schmidt did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment.

South African Manufacturers Call for More Tariffs on China
JOHANNESBURG—Relations between the governments of China and South Africa are flourishing, but manufacturers in Africa's leading economy feel increasingly squeezed by what some describe as a 'constant flood' of cheap Chinese imports. The crisis is especially serious in South Africa's clothing and textiles sector, which trade unions and economic researchers say has declined remarkably over the past 25 years as China's hold on the market has strengthened.
