Guava Shuishui dies age 24: Popular beauty influencer passes away after 'sudden illness'
A Taiwanese beauty influencer, known for tasting her products as she tested them, has died aged 24. Guava Shuishui, known online as Guava Beauty, amassed thousands of followers on Instagram through her reviews of makeup products. As per the English translation of a post shared to her social media account, the content creator died on May 24 from a 'sudden illness.' The popular influencer gained a following from her 'mukbang' videos, with dedicated followers eagerly watching her eat products such as lipstick, blush, face masks, and cotton pads. Mukbang is a form on content which involves the user eating in front of the camera. In her videos, Guava would test the product and then taste it - leaving her reviews of both. She would often ask followers to suggest products to try. Guava's exact cause of death is unknown, with her family releasing a statement via her Instagram. 'Although this trip came suddenly, Shuishui held on to every difficult moment just like she has always been – hard-working, serious, and shining,' the post said. 'Thank you to everyone who has liked, left a message and laughed with her, and thank you for your love and support. She really keeps it in her heart and cherishes it very much,' the statement continued. They concluded: 'Guava Shuishui simply continues to glow in a different place. When we meet again one day, she should be unboxing angels' exclusive makeup for eating broadcasts over.' That post was her last until May 24, when her profile bio was changed to: 'Logging out from the world. Setting off on a new journey. All business collaborations are suspended.' In one popular video from late 2024 that she had pinned to her page, the influencer used a jelly blush before sticking a fork in the container and scooping the entire product out to take a bite. In the caption, she acknowledged eating beauty products is 'controversial,' stating that children under six weren't allowed to watch her content. Some concerned fans commented on the video, worried she was setting a bad example for younger followers, and about the possible toxicity from the products. 'Please can you stop this behavior... You can eat in private, you can eat whatever you like. Really don't promote the act of "eating makeup,"' one user commented as per the English translation. 'It's still toxic, be careful,' warned another at the time. Some concerned fans commented on the video, worried she was setting a bad example for younger followers, and about the possible toxicity from the products 'I can understand that although it is inevitable to eat some lipstick, it's bad to eat it deliberately - please don't promote the act,' complained another. The world of 'mukbang' - where online creators share videos of them eating (often excessive) amounts of food while chatting to followers - has been attracting growing criticism as it grows in popularity. The trend - which has seen itself escalate in extremes, pushing creators to gorge on meals until it makes them unwell - is also tragically behind the deaths of at least three influencers, some as young as 24, in the last three years. Worried experts have also expressed concern that the move normalizes poor and unhealthy diets - as well as leading to potential nutrition deficiencies.

Japan's annual births fall to record low as country's 'silent emergency' deepens
The number of newborns in Japan is decreasing faster than projected, with the number of annual births falling to a record low last year, according to government data released Wednesday. The Health Ministry said 686,061 babies were born in Japan in 2024, a drop of 5.7% on the previous year and the first time the number of newborns had fallen below 700,000 since records began in 1899. The decline comes about 15 years faster than the government prediction. Last year's figure is about one-quarter of the peak of 2.7 million births in 1949 during the postwar baby boom. The data in a country of rapidly aging and shrinking population adds to concern about the sustainability of the economy and national security at a time it seeks to increase defense spending. Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba has described the situation as 'a silent emergency' and has promised to promote more flexible working environment and other measures that would help married couples to balance work and parenting, especially in rural areas where family values tend to be more conservative and harder on women. The Health Ministry's latest data showed that Japan's fertility rate — the average number of babies a woman is expected to have in her lifetime — also fell to a new low of 1.15 in 2024, from 1.2 a year earlier. The number of marriage was slightly up, to 485,063 couples, but the downtrend since the 1970s remains unchanged. Experts say the government measures have not addressed a growing number of young people reluctant to marry, while focusing largely on couples already married and plan to have or already had children. The younger generation are increasingly reluctant to marry or have children due to bleak job prospects, a high cost of living and a gender-biased corporate culture that adds extra burden only on women and working mothers, experts say. A growing number of women also cite pressure to change their surnames to that of their husband as part of their reluctance to marry. Under a civil law, couples must choose either surname to legally marry, a rule traditionally has caused women to abandon their maiden names. Japan's population of about 124 million people is projected to fall to 87 million by 2070, by when 40% of the population will be over 65.

SaaS x AI x Blockchain: The triple threat transforming business
Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... At Strategic Shift 2025, experts explained why SaaS, artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain are leading the next wave of business transformation. The message was loud and clear—if your business isn't moving to the cloud, using AI to boost productivity, or exploring blockchain for trust and security, you're already behind. title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen> SaaS, or Software as a Service, is at the center of this shift. It's changing how companies of all sizes run their operations, from startups to big enterprises. 'Businesses need to shift to SaaS right now because of a number of reasons,' said Bo Lundqvist, President of Retail Associates. 'One, cost. Costs of on-premises is going to go right up… because tech companies are going to drive it up. Hardware, electricity, scarcity of people, all that's going to go up. So maintaining is going to be expensive.' He added, 'New innovation. It is not going to happen on-premises. Innovation will happen in [the] cloud. So if you want your business to be at the forefront of taking advantage of technology… it's happening today. If you want to be a productive company, on-prem is not the place.' Steven Davis, Chairman of the Data Center Association of the Philippines, also stressed the value of SaaS: 'SaaS is evolving on its own. It's got its own natural progression. It has companies doing your business and tools for you right from day one.' But the shift isn't just about software. Blockchain is stepping up as a powerful layer in today's cloud-based systems. 'Blockchain's a very unique tool,' said Davis. 'I've always been a big fan of it. One, the back-end processing, the amount of time, effort, and money you can save by leveraging blockchain.' He also pointed to its strength in cybersecurity. 'Security-wise, it's inherently secure because it's about every piece of it and all the hexadecimal encryption that's running through it. How do you get through it?' And when SaaS meet blockchain? Davis said, 'With software as a service related back to blockchain… when you're running a true global system, multi-user, multi-country, cross borders across the world… and you're trying to manage them as a single user base… that's where it really comes in as a handy tool.' With Southeast Asia's cloud adoption accelerating, the time to act is now. The key takeaway here? Businesses need the cloud and the tools built on top of it to stay competitive.
