DHL Global Forwarding has launched six cold-chain corridors linking destinations in Asia, Europe and North America, comprising Liège-Shanghai, Brussels-Shanghai, Brussels-Singapore, Cincinnati-Singapore, Cincinnati-Tokyo Narita and Cincinnati-Seoul Incheon. "These new corridors further expand our Cold Chain Network into strategically important healthcare markets across Asia," DHL Global Forwarding global head of air freight, Henk Venema, said. "They respond to customer demand for reliable connectivity between major healthcare markets while giving us greater control over critical quality parameters throughout the transportation process."
Malaysia Airlines has "formalised" three memoranda of understanding (MoU) with Jio Network, PayU and Times Black as part of efforts to engage with local trade partners in the India market. The Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) airline said passenger numbers on its flights between India and Malaysia were up 10% in the first half of calendar 2026, compared with the prior year. "India is an important market for us, not only for point-to-point demand, but also for the opportunities it presents through our Kuala Lumpur hub," MAG CEO, Captain Nasaruddin A. Bakar, said. "Our travel trade partners are central to how we reach and serve this market, and we value the role they play in growing travel between India and Malaysia and beyond. At the same time, we are broadening our engagement with Indian consumers through new collaborations that bring together complementary strengths across payments, lifestyle and digital platforms."
