Motiwala cultivates an untapped digital gold market in Southeast Asia
Ever since the outbreak of Covid-19, investors worldwide have turned to transfer part of their assets into gold investment to avoid market uncertainties and take advantage of gold’s reliable store of value. Investors have always cited gold as a safe haven when market uncertainties intensify, and the events in 2020 further confirmed the established correlation between gold and market risk levels.
Since January 2020, the gold price has zipped up 25% by the end of the year, even hitting a record high of over $2,000 per ounce at one point for the first time in history.
Along with the growth of demand for gold-related investments, supply grows too. A Dubai-based precious metal supplier known as Motiwala caught sight of the growth in demand and is determined to make use of this opportunity to become a world leader in the precious metal industry.
How Motiwala accumulated sand grain into mountain
Motiwala Jewellers LLC is a certified precious metal refinery, gold processor, bullion manufacturer, and precious metal supplier based in Dubai. Renowned for its complete and diversified rare metal business network, Motiwala Jewellers is one of the top 5 gold merchants globally and one of the largest refineries in the Middle East region.
But Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes a lot of passion and hard work to build such a spectacular precious metal empire. Its founder, Iqbal Bhai from Pakistan, founded Motiwala 40 years ago and has been in the gold industry since then. He started as a gold and jewellery wholesaler in his home country and later found success when he filed a patent for the international gold market fair in Dubai after discovering its undeveloped gold market.
Through several decades of development, Motiwala Jewellers established subsidiary companies to further diversify the range of services it provides and as an effort to complete its supply chain. It is now the holding company of Motiwala Gold Trading, Motiwala Gold & Precious Stone Industry, Motiwala Gold & Metal Laboratory, Shaheen Exchange.
Since then, the company’s businesses have expanded to cover gold mining, processing, jewellery design, jewellery retail stores, physical gold trading, gold and metal laboratories, precious stones & diamond retail stores, and currency exchange.
With its refinery and an ISO 17025 certified in-house laboratory, Motiwala can produce gold bullion at the finest quality and allow investors to purchase gold bars ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams in size at a competitive price in its physical stores, thus allowing all investors to start investing in gold regardless of their capital size.
Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven
The gold market in Asia, Southeast Asia in particular, are underdeveloped, but experts are confident that Southeast Asia has a bright future as a digital gold haven in the near future as Southeast Asia has one of the fastest rates of digital payment adoption and more than 400 million internet users. The strong tech foundations were laid by the appealing regulatory landscape and strong government support that has escalated the growth of innovation and healthy competition in this region.
In response to the year-long pandemic crisis, part of the gold and jewellery retailers in Asia are moving their retail businesses onto the internet to reach online consumers and combat the highly contagious virus simultaneously. With robust governance and regulations, digital gold has been gaining much traction in the Southeast Asia market.
Tapping into Southeast Asia’s growing digital gold landscape
Envisioned to become the world leader for dealers and traders from across the globe and to achieve sustainable quality growth, Motiwala co-founded Moti Investment Capital (MIC) in 2018 to expand its global presence in the capital trading sector. The establishment of MIC will enable investors to achieve low-risk, sustainable returns using Motiwala’s unique set of the gold supply chain.
As the first step to globalize its operation, Motiwala has tapped into Southeast Asian countries, providing a wide array of services to the new countries, including asset management, physical gold trading and more. With Motiwala’s supply chain and diverse line of services, it will allow investors to purchase physical gold even if the investors are located outside of Dubai.
In 2018, member countries in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) had consumed 309 tonnes of gold, making Southeast Asia the third-largest market for gold in the world. With the combination of rapid digital adoption, the cultural importance of gold in the region, and low expansion costs, it makes Southeast Asia an ideal region as the first step in Motiwala’s globalization.
MOTIWALA announces partnership with BIS
Motiwala has recently announced its partnership with BIS to expand its global presence. BIS Holding is the first of its kind asset management firm to provide unique investment opportunities for investors, allowing clients to have the privilege to participate in the markets like a real corporate level liquidity provider.
“We are excited to partner with BIS,” said Iqbal Bhai, Founder of Motiwala group. “Through this strategic partnership, Motiwala and BIS can form a clear win-win relationship to provide more value to your existing customers. It would also bolster the long-term partnership between Motiwala and BIS as both firms continue to seek opportunities to achieve business expansion.”

Palmetto, Florida, United States, 24th Oct 2026 – Paris Fashion Week has come to an end, leaving behind another busy season of runway shows, presentations and events that brought designers and fashion professionals from around the world to the French capital.
On September 30, Maison de l’Amérique Latine in Paris hosted a large international fashion program, bringing together designers from Latin America, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
One of the main highlights of the day was the first collaboration between 12|11 PRO and Fashion Designers of Latin America (FDLA), founded by Albania Rosario. The two organizations joined forces to bring Latin American designers to Paris and create a major international runway presentation during Fashion Week.
For FDLA, which has spent years supporting designers and promoting Latin American fashion internationally, this marked an important new chapter: its first collective runway presentation in Paris.
The FDLA program featured five designers and brands: Michelle Espinoza, Jesús de la Garsa, Ivanildo Nunes, Valverde and Urban Palais.
The collaboration was part of a larger day of fashion presentations organized by 12|11 PRO at Maison de l’Amérique Latine.
The international lineup also included Diana Caramaci from Romania, Run The Way and RAIS from Russia, SADF from Saudi Arabia, Meruert Balmanova from Kazakhstan, and Nguyen Phuc Tuan from Vietnam, who presented his collection Numéro 6: Vũ khúc Cố đô.
Bringing together designers from different countries on one runway was one of the main ideas behind the project. It offered participants an opportunity to present their work in Paris, meet international fashion professionals and introduce their brands to new audiences.
Behind the Runway
While a fashion show may last only a few minutes, organizing an entire day of presentations requires months of preparation and a large team working behind the scenes.
More than 200 professionals were involved in the September 30 production, including models, casting and beauty teams, producers, showrunners, technical staff, backstage coordinators and volunteers.
Casting Director Mariia Anosova was responsible for model selection and casting coordination, working closely with the production team to organize the lineup across the different runway presentations.
The beauty direction was managed by Cristina Cuellar, together with the team from Instituto Cristina Cuellar, who handled makeup and hair for the participating designers.
Producers Valentina Varnavskaia and Ruslan Evseev coordinated the overall production, working with designers, backstage teams and technical departments to bring the entire program together.
An important role was also played by Ilyssa Wexler Zacchei and Fashion for Futures, whose volunteer team supported backstage operations, model coordination and communication between departments throughout the day.
For a production involving so many designers and participants, the work of these teams was essential to keeping the schedule and the shows running.
An International Collaboration
The partnership with Fashion Designers of Latin America was an important part of the project.
Founded by Albania Rosario, FDLA has developed an international platform supporting both emerging and established designers, particularly from Latin America.
Over the years, the organization has created opportunities for designers to present their collections, connect with industry professionals and reach international audiences, with New York serving as one of its main fashion destinations.
Its first collective presentation in Paris, produced in collaboration with 12|11 PRO, marked another step in expanding those opportunities.
Fashion and Contemporary Art in Dialogue: Curated by Anna Sashina
Bringing together fashion and contemporary art in the context of Paris Fashion Week, an exhibition curated by Anna Sashina will feature three creative voices: artist Mirco Piccioli, artist and writer Elen Sharafullina, and photographer Komiljon Pattaev. Through collage, video, literature, and documentary photography, the project will explore cultural memory, beauty, and the role of visual imagery in contemporary life.
Anna Sashina is an art curator whose exhibitions during Paris Fashion Week explore the relationship between contemporary art and high fashion. Her curatorial vision positions both disciplines as forms of self-expression, creativity, and cultural commentary. Bringing together artists with diverse backgrounds and perspectives, she creates a space for ideas to move across disciplines. This exhibition reflects her commitment to connecting individual artistic voices through a shared dialogue between fashion and art.
Mirco Piccioli is an artist working at the intersection of collage, video, and luxury fashion imagery. Drawing on image fragments, glamour, and cultural memory, he creates layered compositions that evoke attraction, unease, and curiosity. His practice examines what lies beneath the polished surface of fashion: desire, power, femininity, and the psychology of looking. Within the project, he approaches fashion as a space for artistic inquiry, revealing its fantasies and contradictions. @mirco.piccioli
Elen Sharafullina is a contemporary artist and writer based in France whose work brings together art, cultural traditions, and a contemporary vision of elegance. On 30 September 2026 in Paris, she will present her new book, Advent Calendar: Its Origins and History. The book traces this Christmas tradition from its historical roots and symbolism to its place in contemporary culture, art, and design. She is also the author of Etiquette on Board: A Guide for Yacht Owners and Guests, dedicated to yachting culture, international etiquette, and the art of gracious living.
Komiljon Pattaev is a photographer who explores everyday life and cultural heritage through people’s stories. His documentary work centres on labour, human dignity, connections between generations, and a sense of belonging. Photographing in Uzbekistan, he brings attention to people whose lives rarely enter the public spotlight, revealing the significance of their everyday experiences. Traditional costumes from Uzbekistan’s regions hold a special place in his project, their colours, fabrics, and ornaments expressing cultural diversity and living memory
Partners of the Project
The September 30 presentations were also supported by POLARE Paris and Young Voyage. POLARE Paris is a French luxury skincare brand combining French beauty expertise with modern anti-aging technologies. Its L’Âge-Miracle collection includes creams, serums and masks developed to support hydration, firmness and the overall appearance of the skin.
Young Voyage, an independent niche fragrance house founded by Nadine Ahmad, introduced its debut fragrance, Musk Thé, released in a limited edition of 1,000 bottles. The brand focuses on individuality and a contemporary approach to luxury perfumery.
Oliver Weber, the Austrian jewelry brand founded in 1994, supported the event with elegant gifts prepared for the guests, reflecting the brand’s signature craftsmanship and use of premium European crystals. Lidia Weber, Founder of Oliver Weber, also joined the зкщоусе and addressed the audience with a few words of welcome.
Selecting the Participants
Another important part of preparing an international fashion project is the selection of participants. 12|11 PRO works with independent professionals from the fashion, beauty and modeling industries who contribute their expertise during the selection process. The project’s expert committee included Inesa Tyshchenko, Kateryna Dudka, Yana Kucherenko, Olimjon Salmon and Valeriia Serebriakova.The committee participated in reviewing designers, models and beauty professionals, helping the production team select participants for the event.
Looking Ahead
The September 30 program brought together different countries, teams and fashion organizations under one roof. For the participating designers, it was an opportunity to present their work in Paris during one of the busiest periods of the international fashion calendar. For the organizers, it was an opportunity to develop new partnerships and bring together fashion professionals from different markets. With Paris Fashion Week now over, the teams are already looking ahead to the next season. For 12|11 PRO and FDLA, the September collaboration marked the beginning of a new professional relationship and opened the door to future international projects.

Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, 22nd October 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Amy MacIntyre, a psychiatrist in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, explains how understanding individual circumstances shapes better care.
What does it mean to listen to the whole story?
“I try to consider the whole story and situation,” MacIntyre says. Listening to the whole story means taking time to understand the experiences and circumstances someone brings with them. It means asking questions that go beyond symptoms and recognizing that a person’s background, relationships, and daily life all play a role in their wellbeing.
Many people feel rushed or unheard in healthcare settings. When a provider listens to the full context, patients feel respected and understood. That foundation makes treatment more effective.
How do individual circumstances change the approach to care?
“People bring different experiences and circumstances with them, and I think it is important to remember that,” MacIntyre explains. Two people with similar symptoms may need very different approaches based on their family situation, work stress, cultural background, or support system.
Understanding these differences helps shape a treatment plan that fits the person’s real life. A prescription or recommendation that works well for one individual may not be practical or helpful for another.
What role does community play in mental health?
“The relationships with people and the community are something I value very highly,” MacIntyre says. Strong community connections provide support, reduce isolation, and create a sense of belonging. These relationships can be protective during difficult times.
A psychiatrist who is part of the community for the long term builds trust and sees how families and individuals grow and change. That continuity matters. People feel more comfortable seeking help when they know the provider understands the local context and cares about the people who live there.
What has remained consistent over 20 years of practice?
“I started this practice in 2006 to help people in the community thoughtfully and compassionately. That commitment has remained important to me throughout the years,” MacIntyre notes. The focus on compassionate, evidence-based care has stayed central even as treatments and understanding have evolved.
Consistency in values creates a stable foundation for the people seeking care. They know what to expect and can trust that the same principles guide every interaction.
How can you tell if a provider is really listening?
A provider who is listening will ask follow-up questions, reflect back what you have said, and show genuine interest in your concerns. They will not rush to a conclusion or interrupt. They will make space for you to share what matters most to you.
You should leave the appointment feeling heard, even if the path forward is still unclear. Feeling understood is a crucial first step in any treatment relationship.
If you do nothing else
Write down the full story before your next healthcare appointment, including what is happening in your life outside of symptoms.
- Choose a provider who asks about your daily circumstances, not just your diagnosis.
- Ask your provider how your individual situation might affect the recommended treatment.
- Build or strengthen at least one relationship in your local community this month.
- Notice whether you feel heard in your healthcare appointments, and speak up if you do not.
- Look for providers who have long-term roots in your community.
- Remember that your experiences and circumstances matter and deserve to be understood.
Share this Q&A with someone who is looking for a healthcare provider who values listening and understanding individual circumstances.

Chicago, Illinois, 22nd October 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, In a short Q&A, author and entrepreneur Kevin Trudeau explains how he decides whether a day counted, long before any big result shows up.
Why This Question Keeps Coming Up
People ask Kevin Trudeau some version of the same question all the time: how do you know if you’re actually succeeding, or just busy?
He gets asked this by people building a business, writing a book, or trying to change a habit that has not stuck before. Most of them are waiting for a single moment, a launch, a sale, a number on a page, to tell them they made it. Trudeau says that moment rarely arrives on schedule, and treating it as the only proof of progress is a way to feel like a failure for months at a time.
Below, he answers a few questions on how he actually measures a day.
The Q&A
Q: What does a successful day look like for you?
A: It is not a day where something big happened. It is a day where I moved closer to something I care about, even by a small amount. If I wrote two pages, made one phone call that mattered, or fixed one thing that was broken in how I was working, that is a successful day. The scale of the result is not the point. The direction is.
Q: Isn’t that a low bar?
A: It is a different bar, not a lower one. A high bar that you only clear once a year does not help you get through the other three hundred and sixty-four days. A bar you can clear daily keeps you in the game long enough to get to the big result. Most people quit not because they lack ability, but because they measured themselves against the finish line every single day and felt like they were losing.
Q: How do you tell the difference between real progress and just staying busy?
A: Ask what the activity was actually for. Busy work feels productive because it fills the hours. Real progress moves you toward something specific you have already named. If you cannot say what a task was supposed to accomplish, it probably was not progress. That is a question worth asking at the end of every day, not just the start.
Q: What role does being coachable play in this?
A: A large one. If you think you already know how to do the thing you are trying to do, you stop paying attention to the people who have already done it. I still look for people who have results I do not have yet and ask them how they got there. The day you decide you are done learning is the day your progress slows down, even if you do not notice it right away.
Q: Does this way of thinking change as the goal gets bigger?
A: No, and that is the point. Whether the goal is small or huge, the daily question is the same: did I move the needle today, even a little. A big dream is just a long string of small days stacked on top of each other. People overestimate what a single day can do and underestimate what a thousand of them can do.
What He Tells People to Do With This
Trudeau tells people to stop waiting for proof that only shows up at the end. Pick one thing each day that moves you toward the result you want, do it, and count that as a win. Repeat it enough times, and the big day everyone is waiting for tends to arrive on its own.
About Kevin Trudeau
