@jamesplloyd You doing Kenzai also? I’m on my final week now! Not easy (for me at least) giving up peanut butter, pizza and beer (among many things), but the results are amazing.

@HibearCo Congrats on the launch @HibearCo! What’s the difference between the limited edition AF and the regular AF? Is it a design thing?

The publisher of the New York Times, A.G. Sulzberger, published an important article today about press freedom. He mentioned an incident in which I had to leave Egypt in a rush, fearing arrest, two years ago. Some context on that: https://t.co/pswK66VJJH

Accenture data showing the big opportunities that lie ahead for Hong Kong’s newly announced virtual banks :
Fed up with your bank? Hong Kong has an app for that, coming soon, @nishagopalanhk writes https://t.co/8SAwQkWuK7 via @bopinion

It'll be interesting to see what happens this year for sure, particularly with all that's going on in HK. Very interesting to see Japan figures rising so much and big jump in Singapore and Australia also. https://t.co/hC7YIb0TKp

[Elzio T. Barreto Jr @ReutersLZO]

ACN’s Open Banking survey results show Hong Kongers are willing to share their financial data if they can get better banking deals and services, so it’ll be interesting to see how competition from new virtual banks plays out. https://t.co/LKucoiZYIm

[Elzio T. Barreto Jr @ReutersLZO]

Totally agree with the views here from @peter_tl and @aimeedonnellan. The tech from companies like @ImpossibleFoods and @justforall is also amazing and makes it very tasty (gotta try it Peter!) https://t.co/NiTX9wfTlc

India can win big in the fintech space if it focuses on finding its niche and attracting the right talent. https://t.co/maCLA2D8SA
