Record-High Number of Awardees Drives a Digitally Inclusive Society

HONG KONG, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The 2024-2025 Digital Accessibility Recognition Scheme, organised by Hong Kong Internet Registration Corporation Limited (HKIRC), co-organised by the Digital Policy Office, and with the Equal Opportunities Commission as Independent Advisor, held its awards presentation ceremony today at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The Scheme aims to promote digital inclusion, ensuring equal access to digital services for all members of society. With enthusiastic participation from enterprises across various sectors and robust support from multiple stakeholders, the Scheme achieved remarkable success, recording significant growth in both participation and awards, advancing the vision of a digitally inclusive society.

This year’s Scheme received an overwhelming response, reflecting growing societal emphasis on digital accessibility. A record-breaking number of awards were presented, including 439 and 102 for websites and mobile applications respectively. Notably, the newly introduced “Elderly-friendly Award” was conferred upon 119 websites and mobile applications, addressing the needs of an ageing population and fostering a more inclusive digital environment. Among industries, the transportation sector, media sectors and public services stood out with participation and awards showing substantial increases—70%, 33% and 23% growth respectively, demonstrating their proactive commitment.

The ceremony was officiated by Mr. Tony Wong Chi-kwong, Commissioner for Digital Policy; Mr. Simon Chan Sai-ming, Chairman of HKIRC; and Ms. Linda Lam Mei-sau, Chairperson of the Equal Opportunities Commission.

Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Tony Wong commended awardees for “actively enhancing the accessibility of their websites and mobile applications, not only enabling persons with disabilities and the elderly in need to access electronic information and services so that they can fully integrate into the digital society, but also serving as role models for promoting accessibility design.”

Mr. Simon Chan expressed gratitude for the collective efforts in building an inclusive society, stating, “The social responsibility and innovative spirit demonstrated by participating enterprises form a cornerstone of Hong Kong’s development as a smart city.”

Ms. Linda Lam added, “The Equal Opportunities Commission has been committed to promoting equal opportunities for people with different abilities to participate in all aspects of life, including independent access to both physical and digital environments, and to obtain information and participate in activities. The awardees have set powerful examples in promoting digital inclusion, inspiring more enterprises and organisations to contribute to a more equitable and inclusive Hong Kong, where everyone can enjoy equal opportunities.”

In addition to presenting awards to recognise participants’ efforts, the organiser invited representatives from CareER, a platform supporting jobseekers with disabilities, and the Hong Kong Blind Union’s member to share digital barriers in their daily lives. They highlighted past digital barriers faced by visually impaired individuals and the positive changes driven by increasing corporate commitment to accessibility. They expressed hope that more organisations will embrace digital inclusion, further enhancing the digital environment.

Since launching the Scheme in 2018, HKIRC has been dedicated to promoting digital accessibility. Mr. Simon Chan noted, “This year’s record participation is truly encouraging. The introduction of the Elderly-friendly Award aims to raise awareness of the elderly’s needs in accessing digital services.” He highlighted examples of applications with simplified interfaces, larger fonts, and voice navigation, which enhance user experience and demonstrate care for elderly users. “We are delighted to see many enterprises receiving the Elderly-friendly Award, reflecting their efforts to extend digital inclusion to diverse groups. Moving forward, we will intensify promotional efforts and offer technical workshops to deepen corporate understanding of digital inclusion, collectively building an equitable and accessible digital society.”

Looking ahead, HKIRC will continue to embed the concept of “digital accessibility” into everyday life, encouraging industries, especially those integral to daily living to embrace accessibility. By fostering a digitally inclusive society and supporting innovation, HKIRC aims to contribute to Hong Kong’s smart city development, ensuring all citizens can share in the benefits of the digital era.

Optimized for on-device AI with best-in-class sequential reading performance, low power requirementThickness reduced by 15% to fit into ultra-slim flagship smartphonesPortfolio with world’s highest 321-layer product to enhance SK hynix’s leadership as full stack AI memory provider

SEOUL, South Korea, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SK hynix Inc. (or “the company”, www.skhynix.com) announced today that it has developed UFS 4.1 solution product adopting the world’s highest 321-layer 1Tb triple level cell 4D NAND flash for mobile applications.

The development comes amid increasing requirements for high performance and low power of a NAND solution product to ensure a stable operation of on-device AI. The company expects the UFS 4.1 product, optimized for AI workload, to help enhance its memory leadership in the flagship smartphone markets.

With an increase in demand for on-device AI leading to greater importance of the balance between computation capabilities and battery efficiency of a device, the mobile market is now requiring thinness and low power from a mobile device.

The latest product comes with a 7% improvement in power efficiency, compared with the previous generation based on 238-high NAND and a slimmer 0.85mm thickness, down from 1mm before, to fit into a ultra-slim smartphone.

The product also supports data transfer speed of 4300MB/s, the fastest sequential read* for a fourth-generation of UFS, while providing the best-in-class performance by also improving random read and write speed**, critical for multitasking, by 15% and 40%, respectively.  Immediate provision of the required data for on-device AI and faster running speed and the responsivity of an application are expected to enhance user experience.

* Sequential Read/Write: speed to read and write data of a file sequentially

* Random Read/Write: speed to read and write data of dispersed files

SK hynix plans to win customer qualification within the year and ship in volume from the first quarter of next year. The product will be provided in two capacity types – 512GB and 1TB.

Ahn Hyun, President and Chief Development Officer, said that SK hynix plans to complete development of the 321-high 4D NAND-based SSD for both consumers and data centers within the year. “We are on track to expand our position as a full-stack AI memory provider in the NAND space by building a product portfolio with AI technological edge.”

TSA prepares for busy Memorial Day holiday travel

Reminds passengers of the need for a REAL ID

WASHINGTON, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is prepared for Memorial Day weekend travel. From Thursday, May 22, until Wednesday, May 28, TSA expects to screen about 18 million passengers and crew.

“TSA is ready for the additional passenger volume, and we look forward to welcoming families traveling during this peak period,” said TSA Acting Administrator Ha McNeill. “As a friendly reminder, to ensure a smooth screening experience, bring acceptable forms of ID like your REAL ID.”

Since implementing REAL ID on May 7, 93% of passengers are presenting a REAL ID or another acceptable ID, such as a passport. Passengers 18 and older are required to present a TSA accepted form of identification at TSA checkpoints.

TSA offers the following tips for our infrequent flyers:

Pack Smart: Ensure your carry-on bags are organized and comply with TSA regulations. If not sure, text 275-872 (“AskTSA”) or @AskTSA. Have Valid ID: Bring your REAL ID or an acceptable form of identification and have it out to show the officer. Those who have neither a state-issued REAL ID nor an acceptable form of ID can pass through security after their identity is verified, but they may be subject to additional screening.Enroll in TSA PreCheck®: Children 17 and under can join an adult with TSA PreCheck when TSA PreCheck appears on the child’s boarding pass.

The holiday weekend kicks off the summer travel season, which represents a sustained period of higher passenger volumes until Labor Day weekend in September. For more detailed information on preparing for airport security screening, visit tsa.gov.
