Yamaha has just launched its TFX 150: The Fierce Xperience. The much awaited Yamaha M-Slaz in Thailand is now released in the Philippines as Yamaha TFX 150. The said unit has been so popular in most South East Asian countries especially in Thailand. Even Yamaha Philippines is also receiving a lot of inquiries about this unit ever since it was released in Thailand.

And now, the long wait is over. Spread the good news to all our fellow riders, now that Yamaha Philippines has formally launched the TFX 150 at the Mall of Asia Music Hall on September 24, 2016.

Opening the event was a dance mob presentation by a group of award-winning dancers who gave two performance before and after the program activities on stage including the discussion of the specifications of the TFX 150 motorbike which comes in two designs.

An impressive stunt show and exclusive media test ride featuring the TFX 150 motorbike was also conducted at SM By The Bay Central Park. Members of the media also got the chance to participate in all activities prepared for the day.

I have to say I was impressed on the capabilities of the TFX 150 motorbike during the stunt show as riders exhibited its speed, power and easy handling. 

Privacy Commission Advisory on Yahoo Breach

The National Privacy Commission (NPC), an independent body mandated to administer and implement the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and to monitor and ensure compliance of the country with international standards set for data protection, would like to reiterate the recommendations of Yahoo and cybersecurity experts to Yahoo users to change their passwords on their Yahoo accounts.

This follows after the compromise of half million user accounts from Yahoo’s servers in 2014 that was only discovered and confirmed by Yahoo this week. Below is what was posted on Yahoo’s email log-in page about the Account Security issue :

“We have confirmed, based on a recent investigation, that a copy of certain user account information was stolen from our network in late 2014 by what we believe is a state-sponsored actor. The account information may have included names, email addresses, telephone numbers, dates of birth, hashed passwords (the vast majority with bcrypt) and, in some cases, encrypted or unencrypted security questions and answers. “

Other than changing their Yahoo log-in credentials, the NPC also recommends that Yahoo users change log-in credentials of their other online accounts where they might have used their Yahoo email for account verification purposes. The security questions on Yahoo might also have been compromised and it would be a good idea to revise the security questions or disable that feature. The NPC also recommends activating two-part authentication to gain first time access to your account. Two-part authentication uses a phone number you provided to verify your identity.

Kids nowadays belong to the digital generation who could easily learn how to use gadgets and technology. I sometimes find myself getting overwhelmed by the amount of information and adaptability they show in learning how to use new devices in terms of both hardware and software.

Thus, it is not surprising that many companies are now going with the trend since it is the inevitable direction for all especially if we want to belong among those moving forward with the use of technology in most of our activities, may it be at our home, schools or offices. Doing everything from work and learning to entertainment and leisure now involves taking advantage of what technology has to offer.

One of the most popular technological advancement is the proliferation of mobile apps for just about everything from office productivity tools to fun and games. These mobile apps have changed how we do almost everything and whether we would admit it or not, we have embraced its power for our benefit.

Jollibee, the country’s number one fast-food chain, is equally jumping into the bandwagon by recently unveiling its first-ever mobile application called JolliDance Showdown app that is sure to be a hit among Jollibee fans of all ages.
