HONG KONG,
CHINA – Media OutReach – 13
November 2019 – Hong Kong’s Causeway Bay has retained its crown as the world’s most
expensive shopping street, followed by New York’s Upper 5th Avenue and London’s
New Bond Street, according to new data from Cushman & Wakefield. Beijing’s
Wangfujing is the other city across Greater China to break the top 20, with a
global rank of 11.

The annual ‘Main
Streets Across the World’ report tracks rents for 448 locations across 68
markets – the largest number ever included since it started in 1988. The report
ranks locations by their prime rental value using Cushman & Wakefield’s
proprietary data.

Last year Causeway Bay ended five years of domination by New York’s
Upper 5th Avenue, and in the 2019 rankings,it retains its position with rents
to locate a store amounting to $2,745 per sq ft/yr. Upper 5th Avenue is in
second place at $2,250 psf/yr, with London’s New Bond Street third in the
global list, with annual rents at the London thoroughfare having risen 2.3% in
the past 12 months to $1,714 per psf/yr.

Report author Darren Yates, Head of EMEA
Retail Research at Cushman & Wakefield, said: “In terms of rental performance,
this year’s results are encouraging and demonstrate the resilience of the
premier retail locations. Rents on the world’s top retail streets have been
fairly stable and there is greater clarity on where retail is heading. However,
there is downward pressure on rents in many weaker locations, particularly in
the more mature markets of Europe and North America.  In Asia Pacific, retail has generally
performed well across a very diverse group of markets.”

In Europe, New Bond Street leads the way ahead of Paris and Milan, with
Zurich’s Bahnhofstrasse at $866 psf/yr and Vienna’s Kohlmarkt at $513 psf/yr
completing the top five. Overall, rents in around 70% of locations in Europe
were stable or up on last year. Polarization is evident, however, between the
more established markets of North Western Europe and Southern, Central and
Eastern Europe, where online sales have yet to really accelerate.

In the Americas rental trends have shown a wide degree of variation.
Rents in Canada and the US remain under pressure in many areas, although there
can be significant variations between individual streets. There is some good
news in that rents in New York streets appear to be stabilizing, following
falls in recent years. Latin American retail markets continue to mature,
although rents can be volatile.

The Asia Pacific region is in a relatively strong position, with rents
in over 80% of locations covered either rising or stable. India recorded a
particularly strong performance, with solid rental growth across several
cities, while retail rents in Hong Kong have been resilient in the face of the
recent protests — although the outlook is more uncertain.

“Hong Kong’s Causeway Bay, (Russell Street) remains the world’s
most expensive retail street this year, based on data as of June 2019 at the
time the global survey was completed. Since then, however, the Hong Kong retail
market has come under growing pressure from local social unrest that has led to
a sharp drop in tourist arrivals and retail sales, as well as interruptions to
retailer operations, especially during weekends. As a result, retail rents have
fallen across all submarkets in recent months and the outlook for the remainder
of the year is muted,” explained Kevin
Lam, Executive Director, Head of Retail Services, Hong Kong at Cushman &
Wakefield. “However, some retailers see the current market
correction as a rare opportunity to return to the high street, and we therefore
expect some adjustment in retail trade mix. In particular, trades that focus on
mass-market demand and local consumption, such as the education, lifestyle and
sports/athleisure sectors, will fare better in the current environment. We are
seeing a number of such retailers cautiously look for opportunities to expand
or to seek a better rental package.”

Across Greater China, seven locations ranked in the top 20 in the Asia
Pacific list, including Hong Kong (1st), Beijing (6th), Shanghai (8th),
Shenzhen (11th), Guangzhou (13th), Taipei (15th) and Nanjing (20th). All of
their rankings remained unchanged from last year, besides Nanjing, which moved
three places up to round out the list.

Most major cities in mainland China continue to see a significant amount
of new retail development, with activity being driven by both domestic and
international retailers, the latter continuing to pursue a strategy of opening
in multiple locations. A variety of sectors are active, including fashion,
children’s education, cosmetics, entertainment, luxury, lifestyle, fitness and
F&B.

Following initial concerns about the impact of online on traditional
retail, the focus has now shifted to developing the ‘new retail’ model, which
blends the best of both in-store and online experiences. Shopping malls and
retailers are now deploying smart technologies across the whole retail spectrum
from merchandising to marketing and customer engagement, intending to improve
operational efficiencies, reduce costs and enhance the customer shopping
experience.

Darren Yates further expanded on the relationship
between online and in-store retail experiences: “Online sales continue to
increase around the world, but while much of the narrative is focused on the
challenges the internet poses for traditional bricks and mortar, the
relationship between the two is more complex. While quantifying the value of
the store has become more difficult, it remains an important touchpoint for the
consumer and generates both in-store and online sales by acting as a showroom
and creating a wider brand presence — the so-called ‘halo effect’. The most
successful retailers will be those who best integrate their physical and online
operations to create a seamless, positive brand experience for shoppers.”

Notes to
Editors:. Data is Q2 2019

Data for retail rents relates to our professionals’ opinion of the rent
obtainable on a standard unit in a prime pitch of 448 locations across 68
markets around the world. For the purposes of this survey, the standard main
street unit is defined — where possible — as a unit with 150-200 sq.m of sales
area.  Typically, a unit has a frontage
of 6-8 metres. However, an element of flexibility is needed with the
definition, given that unit configuration varies from market to market.  Assumptions regarding ancillary space follow
local practice.

• Get Airports Ready for Disaster (GARD) Local is a follow-up initiative to GARD workshops
  conducted at international airports.
• Airport
  authorities in Nepalgunj and Dhangadhi among the first to attend the new
  training format

KATHMANDU, NEPAL/SINGAPORE – Media OutReach –
November 12, 2019 – Deutsche Post DHL Group, the leading mail and logistics
company, and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Nepal today rolled
out its first Get Airports Ready for Disaster (GARD) Local workshops.

Over the next four days, nearly 40 airport
staff in Nepalgunj and Dhangadhi, two sub-metropolitan cities along the eastern
border of Nepal, will be trained to prepare their airports to handle an influx
of humanitarian aid in the event of disaster. The decision to train local
airports in Nepal is a result of lessons learnt from the 2015 earthquake. The
taxiway at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, the country’s sole
international airport, had crumbled under the initial influx of aircraft
delivering aid, making it impossible for subsequent large aircraft to land. Had
there been a support network of trained local airports in the vicinity, aid
might have been able to land elsewhere for more efficient onward distribution.

DHL air network and logistics experts have been
running GARD workshops since 2009, having trained more than 50 international
airports in over 25 countries. “The team realized that there was demand from
local airports to get trained as well,” said Kim Melville, Lead GARD Trainer,
GoHelp Program, Deutsche Post DHL Group. This new GARD Local format has been
designed as a tailor-made service for smaller local airports that currently do
not have the required expertise, and that may be activated as mini-hubs for the
inflow and outflow of humanitarian aid in times of disaster. “Additionally, the
aim of this new format is to develop a preparedness assessment model that can
then be rolled out to other domestic airports by the civil aviation authorities
who have themselves been trained,” continued Melville.

Over the next four days, the GARD Local
workshops will seek to train local civil aviation authorities from key domestic
airports to assess cargo and air operations, with new sections on risks and
onward logistics in contrast to the original GARD modules.

“The Government of Nepal is eager to prepare
all concerned personnel to respond to disasters in a timely manner. UNDP, as a
long-time partner, is pleased to support the government’s efforts in achieving
that goal. This initiative of making airports more resilient is part of our
joint collaboration,” said Ayshanie Medagangoda-Labé, Resident
Representative of UNDP Nepal. Medagangoda-Labé also stated that the GARD
workshop is crucial to disaster-prone countries like Nepal as it will help in
immediate response actions during disasters. “We have completed a workshop
for Tribhuvan International Airport and we aspire to extend this training to
all 28 operational domestic airports. Airport service is crucial during
emergencies and this type of workshop will help prepare for future humanitarian
efforts,” she added.

The disaster response initiative falls under
DPDHL Group’s GoHelp initiative, a corporate responsibility program focusing on
disaster management. In addition to the GARD initiative, GoHelp also comprises a
Disaster Response Team (DRT). Following the major earthquake that hit Nepal in
2015, over 33 Asia Pacific DRT volunteers were deployed to support humanitarian
logistics operations at Tribhuvan International Airport. Four teams in rotation
spent over 30 days relieving the congested tarmac area of humanitarian
supplies, delivering cargo to airside warehouses, and transporting relief goods
to NGOs’ warehouses. During its time there, the DRT processed 80 —
120 tonnes of relief goods each day.

About the GARD Program

In 2009, GARD was developed
by Deutsche Post DHL Group in cooperation with the United Nations Development
Programme (UNDP) with the aim of preparing airports in disaster-prone areas to
handle the surge of incoming relief goods after a natural disaster occurs. It
also enables the various organizations and aid agencies to better understand
the processes at the airport in the aftermath of a disaster, which will help
facilitate relief efforts and enhance overall coordination.

To date, GARD workshops
have been held at over 50 airports in Armenia, Bangladesh, Bosnia &
Herzegovina, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Ecuador,
Honduras, India, Iraque, Iran, Indonesia, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Lebanon,
Macedonia, the Maldives, Mauritius, Nepal, Panama, Peru, the Philippines, the
Seychelles, Sri Lanka and Turkey.

GARD trainers and training
materials are provided free-of-charge by Deutsche Post DHL Group while UNDP
leads the project implementation and facilitates the coordination with the
national authorities and governmental ministries.

GARD is an integral part of
Deutsche Post DHL Group’s GoHelp program in which the Group pools all of its
activities related to disaster preparedness and management. As a form of crisis
prevention, GARD workshops are used to prepare airports for coping with
potential natural disasters. Should a disaster strike, Disaster Response Teams
(DRTs) provide emergency aid and ensure that relief supplies can be accepted in
a coordinated manner and passed on to the correct aid organizations.

TAIPEI, TAIWAN – Media OutReach – 12 November
2019 – The Bureau of Audiovisual and Music Industry
Development today announces the launch of the 2019 Taipei International TV
Market & Forum at the Taipei Marriot Hotel.

Peng Chun-heng, Deputy Minister of Ministry of Culture and other distinguished guests are here to start the event.

Peng Chun-heng, Deputy Minister of Ministry
of Culture; Hsu Yi-chun, Director General of Bureau of Audiovisual and Music
lndustry Development, Ministry of Culture; Ting Hsiao-ching, Chairperson of
Taiwan Creative Content Agency, join hands to kick off the event, which
showcases the best of Taiwan’s TV products and spurs international cooperation
and sales, and the event will run through November 14.

In remarks made at the opening ceremony,
Deputy Minister Peng said that the Taipei International TV Market & Forum is
an excellent place to take stock of the industry, share experiences and
technologies, develop international cooperation, and together create a
healthier environment for cultural industries. He also emphasized that The
Ministry of Culture has invested heavily over the past few years in creating an
environment conducive to the growth of cultural industries. As part of this, it
has offered awards and funding for the publishing of novels, creation of
scripts, establishment of the Taiwan Comic Base, program production,
post-production and special effects, culture-related technology, personnel
training, overseas marketing, and script translations and dubbing. These grants
and guidance programs have laid the groundwork for creation, and greatly
increased the nation’s capacity to produce original content. Moreover, they
have opened new pathways for derivative content to reach the marketplace.

This year, in order to expand the scope of
activities and increase business with rising markets, there will be 84 buyers
from 20 nations and regions to join the event including Brazil, Burma,
Cambodia, Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran,
Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, the
United States, and Vietnam.

This year among the guests of honor are GYAO
and Hulu Japan, both from Japan, and the sponsors are proud to announce the
addition of the Southeast Asia Exhibition Area, where related nations will host
booths.

There are 64 vendors attend the event this
year, including Taiwan’s television channels, post-production firms, new media
technology firms, TV content creators, over-the-top platforms, film councils of
Taiwan’s cities and counties, and southeast Asian vendors, as well as the newly
established Taiwan Creative Content Agency (TIACCA). Altogether, these vendors
will be offering over 244 TV programs to buyers.

In addition to rights trading meetings, three
International TV Forums will be held: Bringing Taiwan’s Original Content to the
Global Market, the TV/OTT Effect on Drama Productions; and Content Analytics:
Functions and Applications. At these, experts from Taiwan and other nations will
bring their insights and perspectives on the latest international trends,
successful cases, and key operational milestones. These events will spur new
understandings among Taiwan’s industry players, and spur the greater growth of
this sector. Two pitching sessions will be held to allow Taiwan’s content
creators the opportunity to meet with investors from Taiwan and all over the
world.

At a tea party during the opening ceremony,
Deputy Minister Peng will present the 2019 Awards for Television Dramas
Broadcast Overseas. For its success in having The Perfect Match broadcast all over the world– including Hong
Kong, Macao, Malaysia, Europe, and the Americas–Sanlih E-Television Co., Ltd.
will be presented with the Best Effective Reach on an Overseas Platform Award.
The series has also made inroads in such historically closed markets as Central
Asian nations, Japan, South Korea, and Thailand. Choco Media Co., Ltd.,
meanwhile, will be honored with the Best Overseas Creativity Marketing Award
for HIStory Seasons One and Two. This
series is noteworthy for having used smart marketing strategies over new media
to break new ground with audiences. It has been acclaimed by young people all
over the world, enjoying record views and clicks online.

Taiwan Television Enterprise Ltd. will be
honored with the Best Overseas Production Award for its series Prince William. This program was a major
hit among Mandarin-speakers in the Americas and New Southbound Policy partner
countries. Each award recipient will also be granted NT$1 million.

Deputy Minister Peng emphasized that Taiwan
is a land of many moving stories that can serve as inspiration for TV and film
productions. Taiwan is an excellent partner for the development of the
international film/TV market. Working together, Taiwan and foreign enterprises can
make Taiwan globally renowned as a producer of fine TV programming. The TAICCA, founded in May, will work with
the Ministry of Culture to create an environment that is suitable for the
development of cultural content industries. The agency will work to establish a “national team” of noteworthy
enterprises by joining government and private resources in support of film/TV,
pop music, illustrated publications, digital publishing, games, fashion, and
culture-related technology. Assistance will be provided concerning creation, distribution,
and international sale of these products. The main thrusts of TAICCA’s efforts will be content
development, creation of culture-related technology, and building a funding
system for cultural works. To achieve its end of being a bridge between the
government and the private sector, it will conduct surveys, train personnel,
make investments, and forge international alliances.

The Taipei International TV Market &
Forum is a much-anticipated event for the TV industry for both Taiwanese and
foreign participants. Over three days, in addition to the market, international
forums, pitching meetings, and meetings with government film commissions will
be held. A new media tech area will also be featured this year. Aside from
these events, the TV Screenwriting Award and Taiwan Literature Award will be
presented. More, a special tea party for XMediaMatch-Excerpts from “From Book
to Screen” Titles, as well as XMediaMatch “From Book to Screen” business matching
events will be held. According to the Bureau of Audiovisual and Music Industry
Development, the events will give international buyers, local investors, and
content creators the chance to better understand Taiwan’s literature,
animation, and TV content and spur international derivative rights trading, business
matching, and expanded cooperation.
