Asiana supports UNESCO World Heritage sites with solar lighting

As part of its global corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts, multi-awarded Korean carrier Asiana Airlines (OZ) has initiated its solar street lighting project for UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Vietnam.  Asiana embarked on the project in cooperation with the Korean National Commission and installed 40 solar powered street lamps across the Hoi An Riverside Square in Da Nang.

Compared to the original incandescent lamps used in the historic town, the new solar powered street lamps will significantly lower carbon emissions in the area.  The environment-friendly installation is seen to be equivalent to planting 82 pine trees.

Guests led by Sam Koo Park, Kumho Asiana Chairman and CEO (5th from L, center) and Young-Doo Yoon, Asiana Airlines President and CEO (3rd from L) together with officials and guests from the Vietnam government and Korean embassy applaud the new solar street lighting for the UNESCO site.

REEL DEAL: The Heat SPOTLIGHT

Director Paul Feig reinvigorates the buddy cop genre by pairing Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock and breakout star Melissa McCarthy as law enforcers with wildly different styles in “The Heat.” 
Set in Boston, the movie follows Sarah Ashburn (Bullock), a rigid FBI agent forced to team up with Shannon Mullins (McCarthy), a brash undercover Boston street cop to track a ruthless drug lord.   Ashburn is a straight-laced, patient, methodical investigator known for her excellence, while Mullins is very short fused and none has ever had a partner or a long time friend.  This wildly dysfunctional duo must try to catch this high-powered criminal without killing one another in the process.

HEALTHY LYF: Dr. Kong Footwear Bringing Footwear To Each And Every Household

Reports shows that the shoes we wear have a substantial impact on the load on the knee joints which can impair the quality of one’s life. A small abnormality in foot function can be the cause of and have a large impact on knee and other joints higher up in the body, causing pain and discomfort.

Most of us are blessed with healthy feet from the day we are born, but problems often arise with the development and abuse which we subject these feet to later in life by wearing inappropriate footwear. Statistic has shown that between 75% to 80% of the adult population has some form of foot problem and unfortunately, most people do not seek advice on it.

It is thus clear that footcare in the early formative years is vital to ensure that children grow with healthy feet, which may otherwise result in foot problems like flatfoot and rearfoot valgus (a condition in which the rear of foot tends to curve outwards at the ankle joint) as they move towards adulthood.
