ONYX Hospitality Group transforms “The Tide Resort” to “Amari The Tide Bangsaen” Set to Debut in Thailand in Early 2025
With a focus on enhancing the guest experience to create memorable moments for Thai and international tourists, it is set to cater to a wide range of traveller needs and preferences across leisure and business segments
On 7 November 2024, a signing ceremony for a business partnership agreement to manage Amari The Tide Bangsaen was held between Five Leader Group Co., Ltd. and ONYX Hospitality Group at the property. Thanasit Khunplome, the owner’s representative, and Yuthachai Charanachitta, Chief Executive Officer of ONYX Hospitality Group, were present to sign the agreement, joined by executives from both organisations as witnesses.
Yuthachai Charanachitta, Chief Executive Officer of ONYX Hospitality Group, announced that Amari The Tide Bangsaen will be an exciting new addition to the Amari brand, bringing its signature hospitality and exceptional guest experiences to a region undergoing dynamic growth.
The area, located in Eastern Thailand, has seen steady expansion in recent years, driven by the continuous development of infrastructure to support tourism and its capacity to host major international events, thanks to its comprehensive facilities. This positions Amari The Tide Bangsaen as an appealing destination for Thai and international tourists seeking beachfront accommodation within close reach of Bangkok, just over an hour’s drive, and only 45 minutes from Pattaya city. In addition, Bangsaen is a strategic location offering quick access to key tourist attractions within the province, as well as popular local shops and restaurants, all just minutes away.
Thanasit Khunplome, representing the owner of Five Leader Group Co., Ltd., said that the decision to rebrand the hotel from The Tide Resort to Amari The Tide Bangsaen marks a significant shift aimed at enhancing growth and competitiveness in the local market. This rebranding will also facilitate the city’s hosting of world-class sporting events, such as the Bangsaen Series, Ironman 70.3 Triathlon, and Bangsaen Grandprix Road Race, among others.
“In addition, the Amari brand is a long-established name, well recognised among both domestic and international tourists, inspiring confidence in meeting our set goals. Previously, ONYX Hospitality Group handled marketing for The Tide Resort, demonstrating consistent business growth through its vision, as well as the capabilities of its management team and staff. This strong foundation affirms our confidence in the decision to rebrand from The Tide Resort to Amari The Tide Bangsaen today,” added Thanasit.
Amari The Tide Bangsaen is situated directly opposite the renowned Bangsaen Beach, providing a tranquil beachfront retreat in the heart of the city. Easily accessible and surrounded by stunning natural scenery, the hotel offers a range of accommodation options, including deluxe rooms and suites, with a total of 154 rooms to cater to diverse needs and lifestyles. Whether for families, business travellers visiting nearby industrial estates, or hosting special meetings and events, the hotel features medium to large meeting rooms that can accommodate up to 900 participants. The hotel also features the Amaya restaurant, which serves breakfast and dinner, offering a delightful selection of Thai and international cuisine. Guests can enjoy a beachside café experience at Aloha Beach Cafe, located on Bangsaen Beach. For relaxation and wellness, there is a signature spa, a swimming pool, a fitness centre, and a kids’ club, along with many other facilities to enhance the guest experience.

As awareness around women’s health continues to grow, menopause remains a life stage that is frequently underserved by mainstream health solutions. JR Life Sciences is responding to this gap with a science-backed, plant-derived formulation that offers a natural alternative to conventional hormone-based therapies, one that is both accessible and aligned with the preferences of today’s health-conscious consumer.
Menopause Relief is a once-daily capsule containing three plant-based phytoestrogens, each selected for their clinically studied benefits in managing menopause symptoms and supporting long-term health. The formulation is free from synthetic hormones and is suitable for both vegetarian and vegan diets, making it broadly accessible across diverse consumer lifestyles.
Key active ingredients include:
- Lifenol Hops Extract (8-PN phytoestrogen): Shown to lessen hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, restlessness and irritability while helping to maintain total-body bone-mineral density.
- Flax Lignan (SDG phytoestrogen): Provides gentle hormonal support that helps balance oestrogen levels during the transition.
- Soy Isoflavone (genistein and daidzein): Supports bone strength, reduces hot flashes and steadies mild mood swings.
The launch of Menopause Relief reflects a broader strategic priority for JR Life Sciences: to expand its women’s health portfolio in response to growing consumer demand for natural health solutions. In Singapore, where an ageing population is driving increased interest in preventive health and targeted supplementation, the company sees a significant opportunity to better serve women navigating the menopause transition.
Holistic Way currently distributes a comprehensive range of nutraceuticals across key health categories, including:
- Musculoskeletal Health: Products categorised under joint supplements to address knee pain and mobility concerns in ageing demographics.
- Immunity & General Health: Daily essentials ranging from Vitamin C tablets and multivitamin supplements to vitamins for the immune system.
- Specialised Care: Targeted formulations including eye health supplements, probiotics supplements, and heart health supplements.
- Beauty & Wellness: Functional supplements such as collagen shots, hair growth supplements, and anti-ageing supplements.
As JR Life Sciences prepares for 2027, its focus remains on addressing unmet market needs and evolving consumer expectations. Guided by a commitment to science-backed innovation and quality, the company continues to invest in building a future-ready product pipeline that supports long-term well-being and reinforces trust among consumers in Singapore and beyond.
Menopause Relief is now available through Holistic Way’s retail and digital channels. For more information, visit https://holisticway.com.sg/.

Emerging economies are becoming the EV industry’s fastest-growing markets, creating new opportunities for automakers with an international footprint. VinFast’s latest expansion reflects that shift.
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 August 2026 – For much of the past decade, the global electric vehicle conversation has revolved around three markets: China, the United States, and Europe. But recent industry data suggests the next chapter may be written elsewhere.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global car sales fell about 5% in the first half of 2026 as economic pressures, fuel price volatility and policy changes weighed on demand in China and the US. Yet electric vehicle sales rebounded strongly in the second quarter, reaching record levels in 50 countries. Markets including Vietnam, India, Australia and South Korea roughly doubled EV sales compared with a year earlier, while more than 90 countries posted year-on-year growth during the first half of the year.
The shift reflects a broader change in where future industry growth is likely to come from. While China remains the world’s largest EV market, the IEA expects sales there to stagnate this year for the first time this decade, even as electric vehicles account for more than 60% of new car sales. Meanwhile, emerging markets are becoming increasingly important, supported by expanding policy incentives, growing charging infrastructure and rising consumer interest.
The agency also notes that China and other emerging economies are expected to account for around 60% of global car demand over the next decade, making success in these markets an increasingly important determinant of future automotive leadership.
VinFast’s latest performance reflects this changing landscape.
The Vietnamese automaker delivered 70,085 electric vehicles globally in the second quarter of 2026, up 96% year-on-year, bringing first-half deliveries to 128,662 vehicles, a 78% increase from the same period last year. The company’s two-wheel business also continued to expand rapidly, with 286,039 electric scooters and e-bikes delivered during the quarter, up 311% year-on-year.
The delivery mix also highlights the importance of products designed for diverse market needs. Models ranging from the compact VF 3 and VF 5 to the Limo Green MPV and the newly introduced VF MPV 7 all contributed meaningfully to second-quarter volumes, suggesting demand is spread across both personal mobility and commercial transportation segments.
Just as significant is where those vehicles are going.
In July, VinFast exported more than 5,000 electric vehicles aboard two dedicated vessels. One shipment, consisting of approximately 1,500 VF 6 SUVs, was designated for partner Green SM’s planned expansion in Europe, while another transported more than 3,500 vehicles to the Philippines and Indonesia. The voyages marked VinFast’s 37th and 38th international export shipments in fewer than four years, underscoring the increasing operational scale behind its global expansion.
VinFast’s effort in international market, including in the Middle East, shows that as growth becomes more geographically diversified, automakers can no longer rely on a handful of mature markets to drive expansion. Instead, success will increasingly depend on building products, distribution networks and operations that can compete across a wide range of emerging economies.
For the global EV industry, the center of gravity is not disappearing from established markets. It is becoming far more distributed. VinFast’s recent momentum suggests that companies positioned across multiple high-growth regions may be among the best placed to benefit from that shift.
