Karaoke Manekineko Introduces “Shake Shake Fries” to Complement Leisure Dining Trends

0
Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia has expanded its snack menu with a new playful twist, aimed at enhancing the customer experience beyond just karaoke. The introduction of the MANECKEY Shake Shake Fries signals the brand’s growing interest in snack culture and casual food trends among younger audiences.

A familiar staple gets a fun upgrade as Karaoke Manekineko rolls out its latest menu item: MANECKEY Shake Shake Fries. This new offering taps into the appeal of interactive snacking—where customers can season and shake their fries to their liking before digging in.

Designed to align with evolving dining habits, the Shake Shake Fries come with a choice of seasoning flavours and a signature packaging that encourages customer participation. While karaoke remains the core attraction, the brand is increasingly acknowledging that customers are also seeking light, enjoyable meals that complement the social and entertainment setting.

A representative from Koshidaka Malaysia noted that the snack was introduced following observations that quick, customizable bites tend to perform well among teen and young adult demographics, particularly those visiting during student hours or group hangouts.

“Snacks like these serve as a bridge between music, movement, and food,” the representative shared. “It’s about enhancing the experience without interrupting it.”

The introduction of the MANECKEY Shake Shake Fries also reflects a broader trend in the F&B space, where brands are prioritizing novelty, shareability, and minimal mess—attributes that fit well within karaoke room environments.

As part of the launch, customers may see the item featured in upcoming themed events and seasonal menus, though the product will be available as a regular item across all Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia outlets.

About Koshidaka International KL Sdn Bhd

Koshidaka International was incorporated in 2021 at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia as a full subsidiary of Koshidaka Holdings. The company serves as a management consultancy arm for the Karaoke Manekineko operations in Malaysia, Thailand, and Indonesia.

Fortress Investment Group Takes Over Therium’s Litigation Portfolio in Major Industry Shake-Up

0

Fortress Investment Group has quietly assumed operational control of Therium Capital Management’s global litigation-funding portfolio, completing a discreet transfer executed on 11 June 2025 after months of deep restructuring at Therium.

The hand-off, which covers more than forty active disputes spanning Europe, Asia and North America, is the largest realignment the asset class has seen since the United Kingdom’s PACCAR decision tightened recoverability rules for funders last year. Fortress, an alternative-assets manager overseeing roughly US $70 billion and already exposed to some US $6.8 billion in legal assets, will now set budgets, determine strategy and authorise capital calls for every matter previously under Therium’s watch.

Practitioners predict an immediate cultural shift. Therium historically offered flexible, claimant-friendly drawdowns and tolerated longer timelines; Fortress operates on quarterly performance metrics, demands weekly reporting and applies strict risk-adjusted return hurdles. Claimants whose cases have drifted, or whose damages models have weakened, may be pressed to accept earlier settlements, post additional security or face funding withdrawal if revised forecasts fail to satisfy those hurdles.

Insiders also anticipate tougher document scrutiny. Fortress is expected to require comprehensive counsel memoranda, granular budgets broken into six-month tranches and rolling scenario analyses before it releases each slice of capital. Lawyers who miss new benchmarks risk payment delays, while co-funders may be asked to surrender a larger share of upside to compensate for heightened volatility.

The controversial US $14.92 billion claim brought by the heirs of the Sultanate of Sulu against Malaysia remains funded but “under review.” Observers believe Fortress will keep the asset on the books until a Spanish court rules on pending annulment proceedings, yet several sources caution that further adverse findings could trigger an exit clause embedded in the transfer agreement.

Stakeholders therefore have a narrow window to renegotiate terms before Fortress completes its baseline portfolio review in early July. Delays will likely prove costly for all parties.

Analysts view the takeover as part of a broader consolidation trend in which large credit houses seek to ring-fence litigation risk during an era of rising capital costs. Should Fortress succeed in streamlining the inherited book, peers such as Burford Capital and Omni Bridgeway may pursue similar bolt-on acquisitions to defend margins and reassure investors.

For claimants and law firms the message is clear: documentation must be airtight, timelines realistic and economic models defensible, because the era of lightly monitored, open-ended funding has ended.

Just days after JERA, Japan’s largest power utility, announced landmark agreements to secure up to 5.5 million tonnes of U.S. LNG annually over 20 years, attention now turns to Tokyo where the global energy community will converge for the Japan Energy Summit & Exhibition 2025, taking place 18–20 June at Tokyo Big Sight.

With energy security and diversification top of mind, JERA’s announcement exemplifies the type of leadership and investment that will dominate discussions throughout the three-day international summit.

Opening Ceremony: JERA’s Chair Highlights LNG’s Crucial Role in Japan’s Energy Strategy

JERA’s Global CEO and Chair, Mr. Yukio Kani, and Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) will both address these developments live at the events’ Opening Ceremony on 18 June at 10:00. Their remarks will underscore the strategic relevance of long-term LNG supply agreements, and the indispensable role LNG continues to play in Japan’s energy resilience.

In a show of institutional alignment, the 14th LNG Producer-Consumer Conference, co-hosted by METI and the International Energy Agency (IEA), will be co-located with the Japan Energy Summit & Exhibition on 20 June for the first time, reinforcing the event’s growing prominence as a market-moving platform.

MANECKEY Spicy Ramen Heats Up the Menu at Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia

0

As comfort food continues to evolve with local preferences, Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia has added a bold new dish to its expanding snack menu—MANECKEY Spicy Ramen. The launch signals a growing alignment between entertainment spaces and food offerings tailored for urban youth.

In response to the rising demand for flavour-forward comfort food among younger consumers, Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia has introduced a fiery new dish: MANECKEY Spicy Ramen. Served hot and infused with rich, savoury broth and a signature spicy blend, the dish is positioned as a satisfying companion to karaoke sessions.

The dish is offered in two variations: the MANECKEY Spicy Ramen, designed for those who enjoy a traditional kick, and the Spicy Carbonara Ramen, which balances heat with creamy richness. Both options are halal-certified and were curated to appeal to regular guests seeking a quick yet hearty meal between performances.

The ramen’s launch reflects a growing shift in karaoke venues that are increasingly catering to all-in-one leisure experiences—combining music, casual dining, and social gathering under one roof. For Karaoke Manekineko, this move aligns with evolving customer behaviour, especially among urban youth and working adults who view karaoke lounges as more than just music spaces, but lifestyle destinations.

While not a seasonal feature, the MANECKEY Spicy Ramen is expected to be spotlighted in upcoming campaigns and may appear in limited-edition set menus or event packages. However, the item is now part of the regular menu across all Karaoke Manekineko Malaysia outlets, and early feedback from staff and customers suggests it could become a popular staple.

From a food trend perspective, the inclusion of spicy ramen highlights a broader regional preference for customisable heat levels and comforting textures—a trend that continues to influence food service design across lifestyle entertainment venues.

Solana in the Spotlight: Whale Transfers, ETF Hype, and Institutional Moves Spark Investor Frenzy

0

Solana (SOL) is back in the spotlight as $320M in mysterious whale transfers, rising ETF approval odds, and surging institutional interest stir both fear and excitement. Could this altcoin be the next breakout star of 2025?

As the broader cryptocurrency market endures a wave of volatility, Solana (SOL) has become a central figure in both investor anxiety and optimism.

From sudden multi-million-dollar whale transfers to soaring ETF speculation and surging institutional interest, Solana’s recent activity paints a complex but compelling picture of a blockchain network at the crossroads of speculation and adoption.

$320 Million in SOL Moved in Mysterious Whale Transfers

On June 12, the crypto market took a bearish turn, with top assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum plunging sharply.

In the midst of this downturn, on-chain analytics firm Whale Alert flagged a staggering 2,023,142 SOL, worth over $320 million, being transferred within a two-hour window. The transactions were split into two tranches:

1. The first transaction moved 1,063,142 SOL (~$169 million).

2. The second, more intriguing transfer sent 960,000 SOL (~$154 million) to a newly created wallet just one hour before the transaction.

The anonymous nature and scale of these movements raised alarms and speculation. Could these be whales offloading assets ahead of a broader correction, or internal reshuffling in preparation for institutional custody?

While no one has claimed responsibility, many analysts suggest these could be bearish whales bracing for deeper losses.

Meanwhile, SOL’s price dropped by 6.67%, hitting $146.97, underscoring growing uncertainty and fear in the market.

Futures Market Sees Institutional Inflows

Supporting the rebound is growing confidence from institutional players. According to derivatives data:

1. Open interest in Solana futures soared 12% in 24 hours, reaching $7.54 billion, just 12% shy of its all-time high.

2. This signals renewed institutional appetite, even amid elevated liquidation risks.

Solana’s Ecosystem Strengthens

Beyond price and speculation, Solana’s fundamentals are showing remarkable improvement:

1. Total Value Locked (TVL) has risen to 56.8 million SOL (~$9.1 billion)—the highest since June 2022.

2. Daily active addresses have jumped 38.5%, totaling 2.7 million.

3. Key decentralized applications (DApps) have seen 77% to 300% increases in unique wallet interactions.

These metrics indicate not just investor interest, but real user engagement, laying the foundation for long-term growth.

Solana ETF Approval Odds Hit 91%

Adding fuel to the bullish fire, prediction market Polymarket has placed 91% odds on the SEC approving a spot Solana ETF by 2025. Major asset managers, VanEck, Bitwise, and Grayscale, have already filed for such products.

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas even predicted Solana could lead an upcoming “Altcoin ETF Summer,” similar to what Ethereum and Bitcoin experienced during their ETF hype cycles.

Technical analysts further point out a bull flag pattern forming on the SOL/USD weekly chart, potentially targeting a move toward $335—if momentum holds and SOL reclaims the $190 support level.

DeFi Development Corp’s $1 Billion Solana Bet Hits a Regulatory Speed Bump

In a parallel storyline, DeFi Development Corp (DDC), a Nasdaq-listed firm and self-proclaimed “Solana Treasury Company”, has run into SEC resistance on its path to raise $1 billion for additional Solana purchases.

The company attempted to file a Form S-3 registration statement on April 25 to use proceeds for buying more SOL. However, the SEC rejected the filing due to missing internal control documentation.

As a result, DDC voluntarily withdrew the request but confirmed plans to resubmit via a resale registration statement in the near future.

Despite the setback, DDC’s commitment remains strong:

1. It already holds over 609,190 SOL (~$97 million).

2. Recent purchases include 16,447 SOL at an average of $139.66.

3. The firm also adopted liquid staking, converting some of its SOL to dfdvSOL to enhance capital efficiency.

Now led by former Kraken executives, most notably Joseph Onorati, ex-Chief Strategy Officer of Kraken, DeFi Development Corp has transformed from a real estate tech company into a serious crypto player.

Conclusion: Solana Walks the Tightrope Between Fear and Opportunity

Solana is currently walking a tightrope between short-term volatility and long-term promise.

While large whale transactions and regulatory setbacks create anxiety, the concurrent rise in institutional investment, strong on-chain data, and ETF optimism point to a potentially explosive upside.

If the SEC greenlights a Solana ETF and market sentiment stabilizes, SOL could be poised to not only revisit its all-time highs but also claim a dominant role in the future of decentralized finance and blockchain infrastructure.

For investors, the message is clear: Watch Solana closely. It could be the most important altcoin story of 2025.

MOLD Manila: Expert Non-Surgical Beauty Enhancements in Quezon City

0

Discover MOLD Manila’s signature non-surgical nose thread lifts, jaw slimming, and facial contouring treatments. No scalpels—just sculpted beauty through minimally invasive aesthetic procedures.

Discover Non-Surgical Face Enhancements at MOLD Manila

We get it. You want to feel like the best version of yourself—refreshed, confident, and naturally glowing. Yet the idea of surgery can feel intimidating. Too permanent. Too much commitment for something that’s supposed to help you feel lighter, not more anxious.

You’re not alone. Many of our clients say the same thing: “I just want to improve this one area,” or “I want to feel more confident without changing who I am.”

That’s where MOLD Manila comes in.

We’re all about subtle yet stunning transformations—minimally invasive beauty treatments with real results. No incisions, no dramatic overhauls, no intimidating downtime—just the effortless glow-up you deserve.

Our clinic is where science meets subtlety. We use KFDA-approved threads, FDA-cleared fillers, and a personalized, artistic approach to elevate your natural features—not mask them.

Whether it’s a lifted nasal bridge, a more contoured chin, or a slimmer jawline, we help you mold your confidence—safely, gently, and beautifully.

Understand the Benefits of Nose Thread Lifts

A best-seller at MOLD, the HIKO nose thread lift is a game changer for Filipino features. Using PDO threads, this treatment lifts the nasal bridge and refines the tip. Threads also promote collagen, so the lift improves over time.

Treatment Time: 30–45 minutes

Best for: Low bridges, undefined nasal tips, and those avoiding rhinoplasty

Starts at: PHP 1,500

Results last: Up to 2 years

Clients walk out with an enhanced yet natural look—no fillers, no incisions, and no regrets.

What to Expect During Chin Augmentation or Contouring

Chin contouring offers harmony to the lower face. We use dermal filler to improve projection and balance. Think: V-line profile, improved side profile, and photo-ready confidence.

Treatment Time: 30 minutes

Starts at: PHP 8,000

Best for: Short/recessed chins, facial asymmetry

Downtime: None

Learn About Jaw Slimming Through Masseter Botox

If your jawline feels too wide or boxy—or if you suffer from teeth grinding—masseter Botox is a dual-purpose solution. It gently weakens the bulky chewing muscle to create a softer, more feminine or contoured lower face.

Treatment Time: 15–20 minutes

Starts at: Php 350/unit

Results appear: Within 2–6 weeks

Lasts: 4–6 months

Bonus: Many clients also experience less jaw pain or TMJ symptoms.

Explore the Advantages of Cheek Contouring

Age and stress can cause the mid-face to hollow or sag. Our cheek contouring treatments restore volume, lift the face, and bring back definition to the cheekbones. Options include fillers or thread lifts, depending on your goals.

Starts at: PHP 8,000

Lasts: 12–18 months for threads; 6–9 months for filler

This is perfect for anyone who wants to glow without piling on makeup or filters.

Skin Rejuvenation Treatments That Support Your Look

It’s not enough to look perfectly contoured; your skin should glow from within. At MOLD, we combine targeted facials with regenerative therapies to bring back that fresh-faced luminosity:

PRP Therapy

Using your own plasma to boost collagen, reduce fine lines, and brighten skin tone.

LED Light Therapy

Soothes inflammation and acne while accelerating healing post-procedure.

Enzyme & Vitamin Facials

Custom facial treatments that nourish skin before or after contouring work.

These treatments pair well with any facial procedure and are often included in bundled sessions.

Why MOLD Clients Choose Minimally Invasive Procedures

We don’t do beauty by accident—we lead a movement in intentional transformation.

Our clients are:

• Young professionals prepping for their big break

• Brides and grooms aiming to glow at the altar

• Moms regaining self-care time

• Everyday people tired of heavy makeup and beauty pressure

We don’t sell perfection. We sculpt confidence.

And because our treatments are safe, fast, and subtle, there’s no awkward healing period or drastic change. Most people won’t know you had something done—they’ll just ask if you changed your skincare routine (wink).

People Also Ask

A: Nose thread lift starts at PHP 10,000. Packages vary based on thread type and desired outcome.

Mengenal Uji Ketahanan yang Sedang Dijalani Rangkaian Trainset (TS) 20 LRT Jabodebek

0

LRT Jabodebek melakukan uji ketahanan terhadap rangkaian TS 20 sebagai bagian dari proses sertifikasi sebelum dinyatakan layak beroperasi. Uji ketahanan ini bertujuan untuk memastikan semua sistem di dalam rangkaian kereta berjalan dengan baik dan stabil. Rangkaian TS 20 harus menempuh jarak minimal 2.000 km dalam kondisi non-komersial untuk dapat dinyatakan layak beroperasi.

Bekasi, 18 Juni 2025 – Direktorat Jenderal Perkeretaapian (DJKA) Kemenhub bersama KAI dan INKA saat ini tengah melakukan uji ketahanan (endurance test) terhadap rangkaian LRT Jabodebek TS 20. Pengujian ini merupakan salah satu tahapan penting yang harus dilalui sebelum rangkaian dinyatakan siap untuk mengangkut penumpang. Setelah rangkaian kereta dinyatakan layak dan tersertifikasi, rangkaian TS 20 akan digunakan untuk mendukung peningkatan layanan LRT Jabodebek yang direncanakan mulai Juli 2025.

Uji ketahanan dilakukan dengan menjalankan rangkaian kereta seperti saat beroperasi normal, tapi tanpa membawa penumpang. Tujuannya adalah untuk memastikan semua sistem di dalam rangkaian kereta mulai dari pengereman, kelistrikan, pengendalian, hingga komunikasi berjalan dengan baik dan stabil. Pengujian ini menjadi salah satu syarat penting sebelum kereta diizinkan untuk melayani penumpang.

Sesuai dengan Peraturan Menteri Perhubungan Republik Indonesia Nomor PM 49 Tahun 2023 tentang Standar, Tata Cara Pengujian, dan Sertifikasi Kelaikan Kereta Api Kecepatan Normal dengan Penggerak Sendiri, rangkaian TS 20 yang termasuk kategori kereta series, wajib menempuh jarak minimal 2.000 km dalam kondisi non-komersial untuk dapat dinyatakan layak beroperasi.

Sebelum digunakan untuk melayani penumpang, setiap rangkaian LRT Jabodebek harus melalui proses sertifikasi dari Direktorat Jenderal Perkeretaapian. Proses ini meliputi berbagai pengujian teknis, seperti uji statis saat kereta dalam kondisi diam untuk memastikan komponen seperti rem, sistem kelistrikan, dan penggerak berfungsi dengan baik, serta uji dinamis saat kereta bergerak untuk mengecek akselerasi, pengereman, kestabilan, hingga tingkat kebisingan.

Selain itu, dilakukan juga uji integrasi sistem untuk memastikan semua sistem baik di dalam kereta maupun yang terhubung dengan jalur dan operasi berjalan sinkron, termasuk teknologi CBTC (Communication Based Train Control). Terakhir, rangkaian harus menjalani uji ketahanan (endurance) dengan menempuh jarak minimal 4.000 km untuk kereta pre-series dan 2.000 km untuk kereta series dalam kondisi non-komersial, sebagai syarat utama sebelum dinyatakan layak beroperasi secara komersial.

Executive Vice President LRT Jabodebek, Mochamad Purnomosidi, menyampaikan bahwa uji ketahanan ini merupakan bagian dari komitmen untuk memastikan setiap rangkaian yang beroperasi benar-benar siap. “Kami mohon maaf jika selama proses uji coba ini menimbulkan ketidaknyamanan bagi pengguna. Tapi ini langkah penting agar ke depannya layanan LRT Jabodebek bisa lebih baik dan makin andal,” ujarnya.

Untuk memudahkan pengguna mengenali rangkaian TS 20 yang sedang diuji, terdapat garis pembatas di pintu kereta sebagai tanda bahwa rangkaian tersebut tidak melayani penumpang. Selain itu, akan disampaikan pengumuman khusus saat kereta masuk stasiun. Petugas juga akan siaga di stasiun maupun dalam rangkaian untuk membantu dan memberi informasi kepada pengguna. Informasi lebih lanjut terkait jadwal dan perkembangan uji coba bisa dipantau melalui akun Instagram resmi LRT Jabodebek @lrt_jabodebek.

Dengan berbagai tahapan uji dan sertifikasi ini, LRT Jabodebek terus berupaya memberikan layanan transportasi yang aman, nyaman, dan semakin bisa diandalkan oleh masyarakat.
