During the year, the Company strengthened its presence in key global markets, advanced field and laboratory validation of its remediation technologies, improved its operational foundation, and completed a strategic restructuring to concentrate resources on its core environmental services platform.

2025 Highlights

Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) Registration
Registered-vendor status was achieved with Kuwait Oil Company, enabling participation in bidding processes for produced-water and oil remediation projects within the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation ecosystem. Project analysis, product validation, testing, development, and commercial negotiations are ongoing.

International Expansion – Turkey
A subsidiary was established in Turkey to support regional project development and partnerships. Cyber International entered into a Letter of Intent with the City of Mardin, Turkey, under which a pilot water treatment system was delivered. Pilot testing is expected to commence following system integration.

Middle East Presence – Dubai
A business presence was established in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, through the formation of CETI International Environmental Solutions LLC, supporting regional business development and partner engagement. Technical operations were transitioned accordingly. Establishing a presence in Dubai, a regional financial and business hub, is expected to enhance access to Middle Eastern opportunities while improving project oversight and execution.

South America Market Development
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was executed with strategic partners in South America to support environmental remediation initiatives and regional expansion efforts. Targeted projects have been identified and are expected to be pursued during 2026.

Technology Validation
Field and laboratory testing continued throughout the year, including testing conducted at Nebraska Beef, which demonstrated significant reductions in total dissolved solids (TDS), exceeding applicable industry standards. These results support CETI’s expansion into agribusiness-related applications. Additional testing performed through an internationally recognized laboratory in Dubai demonstrated successful reduction of iron sulfide to industry-acceptable levels in produced water and contaminated oil.

Strategic Restructuring
The spinoff of Alvey Oil Field Operations to Texas Coastal Energy Corporation was completed, enabling the Company to focus on its core remediation technologies while retaining potential upside through equity ownership. Shares of WTXR are expected to be distributed in connection with the Alvey spinoff, subject to customary approvals.

Project Financing Positioning
A GBP £50 million green bond financing instrument was secured at the subsidiary level to support eligible sustainable remediation projects, subject to customary deployment conditions. The green bond was issued by Sustainable Capital and is currently traded on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under ISIN: CH1213604007.

Leadership and Governance
Deborah Casper-Stone was engaged to strengthen audit and compliance functions. Donald (“Don”) Gritten was appointed as Director and General Manager of U.S. Operations, supporting execution and operational oversight across domestic and South American initiatives.

Shareholder and Public Communications
The Company announced plans to introduce periodic newsletters hosted on its corporate website, providing shareholders, partners, and the public with ongoing updates on project developments, technology validation progress, and corporate initiatives.

CEO Statement
“2025 was a year of deliberate execution for Cyber Enviro-Tech,” said Kim D. Southworth, Chief Executive Officer. “Rather than prioritizing rapid expansion, we focused on strengthening our compliance foundation, gaining access to difficult-to-enter markets, advancing technology validation under real-world conditions, and improving our financial position. We believe these actions position the Company to pursue larger, more durable opportunities while maintaining a disciplined approach to growth.”

$90 Billion Annual Funding Gap Exposes Urgent Need to Modernize America’s Aging School Buildings

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

A new report by the 21st Century School Fund, the International WELL Building Institute, and the National Council on School Facilities reveals massive, chronic underinvestment in school facilities and grounds, while offering a roadmap for turning the tide toward safer, healthier, and more modern schools.

WASHINGTON, D.C., January 5, 2026 /3BL/ – The 2025 State of Our Schools report, released by the 21st Century School Fund, International WELL Building Institute (IWBI), and the National Council on School Facilities (NCSF), shows that the U.S. now faces a $90 billion shortfall in school facility funding every single year, despite significant progress local school districts have made to ramp up their investments.

Since its earlier releases in 2016 and 2021, the report has tracked a steep and alarming rise in the nation’s school facilities funding deficit. What was a $46 billion gap in 2016 grew to $85 billion in 2021 and has continued to widen as school construction costs climb, building inventories expand, and aging facilities require more extensive maintenance, modernization, or replacement.

“Even as local districts have stepped up by increasing their annual spending on school facilities from $95 billion in 2016 to more than $150 billion now, they are still falling behind,” said Mary Filardo, Executive Director, 21st Century School Fund and lead author of the report. “As the funding gap for our critical school infrastructure grows, it becomes even harder to climb out of this hole unless we begin to better share the load across levels of government and embrace a dynamic solution set that ensures every public dollar delivers a stronger return on investment.”

In the United States, PK-12 school facilities represent the second largest sector of public infrastructure investment, surpassed only by highways. These buildings are where nearly 60 million students, teachers, and staff spend their days, making them among the most essential pieces of community infrastructure we have. Yet unlike transportation infrastructure, where federal and state governments shoulder most of the costs, school facilities are primarily left to local districts. The report finds that local districts bear 80 percent of school facility funding, with states contributing 17 percent and the federal government just 3 percent.

“With a $90 billion annual shortfall, the magnitude of this crisis is undeniable and utterly unacceptable. It’s simply impossible for local districts to continue to shoulder this burden disproportionately,” said Rachel Hodgdon, President and CEO, International WELL Building Institute. “Without greater responsibility across all levels of government, particularly the federal government, our country will continue to underfund the very infrastructure that determines the health, safety, and educational outcomes of millions of children. Where our children learn matters, and access to safe, healthy, and modern learning environments should be a right, not a privilege.”

The report also underscores how deeply uneven and unequal school facility investment remains across the country, with the most significant burdens falling on disadvantaged and rural districts. High-poverty districts had 30 percent less capital invested in their school buildings than low-poverty districts, and rural districts received less than half the per-student capital investment of their suburban and city counterparts. The findings point to persistent gaps that continue to leave rural and high-poverty communities bearing a disproportionate share of the burden and facing far greater challenges in achieving safe, healthy, and modern school facilities.

“For all of us who care about our communities, we know that our schools are their beating hearts. Closing these funding gaps should be a top priority for every one of us,” said Brandon Payne, Executive Director, National Council on School Facilities. “This is a moment to unite to ensure our public schools meet modern standards for health, safety, learning, and educational adequacy.”

Furthermore, according to the report, as school districts struggle to fill this widening gap, they are also sinking deeper into debt. By the end of fiscal year 2023, local districts carried more than half a trillion dollars in long-term debt and paid $22 billion in interest alone.

As stated in the report, the $90 billion annual investment gap reflects what is required for responsible stewardship and modern school facilities and grounds, covering both capital needs and operations and maintenance. Each year, the U.S. spends an average of $82 billion on capital improvements, leaving a $56 billion shortfall. Similarly, the total outlay for facility operations and maintenance is $70 billion, $34 billion less than needed. Together, these deficiencies in capital investment and ongoing maintenance constitute the total gap of $90 billion.

This year’s report does more than diagnose the scale and severity of the crisis; it also lays out a bold, actionable path to achieve modern schools by 2050. It calls for new approaches and more shared investment across all levels of government, alongside a stronger focus on building the capacity needed to deliver improvements. Central to its recommendations is securing a stable, reliable federal incentive funding program of $25 billion per year, which the report finds would reduce annual requirements by $75 billion – a 34 percent return on investment. The report also urges expanding federal support for state capacity grants for facility data, planning, technical assistance, and training to all states to ensure that states and districts are equipped for the modernization work ahead. (The Supporting America’s School Infrastructure).

What Other Leaders Are Saying about the 2025 State of Our Schools Report

“Public schools are public infrastructure.  And we should invest in them just as we invest in roads and bridges. With annual shortfalls growing despite increased state and local investment, it is clear that a federal partnership is needed,” said Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), the author of the Rebuild America’s Schools Act which would target new federal infrastructure investments to help local school districts address building and modernization needs. “Congress must come together to solve this crisis and deliver the federal investment our schools need to keep students healthy, safe, and equipped to meet the challenges of the future.”

“As a former Surgeon General, I had the honor to serve as the ‘Nation’s Doctor,’ and what I find particularly concerning are the serious health implications from poor conditions of school buildings and grounds. As I’ve said before, our facilities are not just walls, roofs, and blacktop – they are health-critical environments,” said Dr. Richard Carmona, 17th Surgeon General of the United States. “It’s time to take decisive action to ensure our schools are adequately funded so they are healthy, sustainable, safe, and secure, becoming places where learning thrives and dreams take hold.”

“Students need clean air, sufficient caring and competent staff to meet their needs, and enough room to do more than sit in rows and stand in lines. Many districts are being stretched too thin to provide these foundational facility characteristics for all their students,” said David Sturtz, Founder and CEO, Sturtz and Company. “We need at least as much thought, if not more, in how to adequately fund and design a school district’s facilities and operations as we do individual school buildings. If districts do not have sufficient budgets to keep all their buildings in good working condition and staff them sufficiently to meet their students’ needs, then focusing on the particulars of architectural design misses the mark.”

“Modern, thoughtfully designed public schools are not luxuries – they are essential to student success,” said Pamela Loeffelman, senior principal at DLR Group, an integrated design firm specializing in future-focused learning environments for K–12 schools. “Well-designed, dynamic learning environments empower students, support well-being, and are foundational for them to thrive in a rapidly changing world. We need federal leadership and sustained funding to ensure that all students, in every community, benefit from the power of modern, high-performing school facilities.”

The Wolf of Uzbekistan Vs. B-Book: How WOUFX Is Changing the Rules of the Forex Market

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In a $9.6 trillion daily forex market (BIS 2025 figures) where over 80% of retail traders lose money, the industry has long thrived on a brutal truth: most brokers profit when clients fail. The dominant B-Book model turns brokers into silent counterparties, quietly earning from every blown account.

Then came WOUFX LLC – founded by Uzbek trader Eshniyozov Shoxjahon Akmal ogli, the “Wolf of Uzbekistan” – with a simple, defiant declaration: “We will not make money from your losses.”

This is not marketing spin. This is a direct assault on the core architecture of modern retail forex. A Model Built on Radical Alignment

WOUFX operates exclusively as an A-Book/STP broker with transparent execution. Every order is routed straight to Tier-1 liquidity providers. The broker never takes the opposite side of a client trade.

Revenue comes only from fixed commissions, with no bonuses, no referral or affiliate programs, no hidden incentives, and no manipulative high-leverage traps (maximum 1:200). In an industry that lures newcomers with “free” money and referral kickbacks, WOUFX rejects every traditional growth hack. Client success directly aligns with broker stability – a complete inversion of the usual conflict of interest.

This is not just different. This is an entirely higher level of structural integrity.

The Making of the Wolf

Eshniyozov’s path spans 13 years of professional trading – years of losses, rigorous self-analysis, and hard-won consistent profitability. In 2021 he published verified results that drew comparisons to global records, complete with open reports and video breakdowns.

Unlike countless self-styled gurus hiding behind closed signals, he weaponized transparency. That same principle now powers WOUFX: turning personal discipline into institutional infrastructure.

Unprecedented Legal Fortress for a Forex Broker

While most forex firms hide in lightly regulated offshore havens, WOUFX has deliberately anchored itself in verifiable U.S. jurisdiction:
State of Delaware File Number: 10372381
Delaware Business License Number: 2025715007
FinCEN MSB Registration Number: 31000315645596
SEC EDGAR CIK: 0002094541 (Form D filed)
Registered Address: 1209 North Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, USA
Authorized Capital: $11 million
LEI: 984500386C3CN4BF4710
UNGM Vendor Status

Independent U.S. Legal Opinion

These are not decorative badges – they are publicly verifiable identifiers in some of the world’s strictest registries. WOUFX serves non-U.S. clients and avoids direct U.S. retail forex licensing, but it has voluntarily submitted to a level of scrutiny most competitors avoid entirely.

The WOUFX™ trademark application at the USPTO (classes 36 and 42) further signals long-term commitment to operating within recognizable legal boundaries.

A Dangerous Precedent

When a broker openly refuses to profit from client losses – and backs it with auditable registrations – uncomfortable questions emerge for the rest of the industry:

Why do others still rely on B-Book revenue?
Why do referral schemes and bonus traps remain standard practice?
Why do so many firms disappear overnight with client funds?

WOUFX offers no easy-money promises. Instead, it delivers something increasingly rare: an infrastructure where trader prosperity and broker viability are genuinely aligned.

Final Challenge

WOUFX LLC is more than a new entrant. It is a living challenge to an industry long accustomed to profiting from failure.

The “Wolf of Uzbekistan” has transformed personal conviction into institutional reality. The market now faces a clear choice: evolve toward genuine transparency – or continue defending a model built on conflict of interest.

The gauntlet has been thrown. The pack is watching.

In an industry that lures newcomers with “free” money and referral kickbacks, WOUFX rejects every traditional growth hack. Client success directly aligns with broker stability – a complete inversion of the usual conflict of interest.

This is not just different. This is an entirely higher level of structural integrity.

The Making of the Wolf

Eshniyozov’s path spans 13 years of professional trading – years of losses, rigorous self-analysis, and hard-won consistent profitability. In 2021 he published verified results that drew comparisons to global records, complete with open reports and video breakdowns.

Unlike countless self-styled gurus hiding behind closed signals, he weaponized transparency. That same principle now powers WOUFX: turning personal discipline into institutional infrastructure.

Unprecedented Legal Fortress for a Forex Broker

While most forex firms hide in lightly regulated offshore havens, WOUFX has deliberately anchored itself in verifiable U.S. jurisdiction:
State of Delaware File Number: 10372381
Delaware Business License Number: 2025715007
FinCEN MSB Registration Number: 31000315645596
SEC EDGAR CIK: 0002094541 (Form D filed)
Registered Address: 1209 North Orange Street, Wilmington, Delaware 19801, USA
Authorized Capital: $11 million
LEI: 984500386C3CN4BF4710
UNGM Vendor Status

Independent U.S. Legal Opinion

These are not decorative badges – they are publicly verifiable identifiers in some of the world’s strictest registries. WOUFX serves non-U.S. clients and avoids direct U.S. retail forex licensing, but it has voluntarily submitted to a level of scrutiny most competitors avoid entirely.

The WOUFX™ trademark application at the USPTO (classes 36 and 42) further signals long-term commitment to operating within recognizable legal boundaries.

A Dangerous Precedent

When a broker openly refuses to profit from client losses – and backs it with auditable registrations – uncomfortable questions emerge for the rest of the industry:

Why do others still rely on B-Book revenue?
Why do referral schemes and bonus traps remain standard practice?
Why do so many firms disappear overnight with client funds?

WOUFX offers no easy-money promises. Instead, it delivers something increasingly rare: an infrastructure where trader prosperity and broker viability are genuinely aligned.

Final Challenge

WOUFX LLC is more than a new entrant. It is a living challenge to an industry long accustomed to profiting from failure.

The “Wolf of Uzbekistan” has transformed personal conviction into institutional reality. The market now faces a clear choice: evolve toward genuine transparency – or continue defending a model built on conflict of interest.

The gauntlet has been thrown. The pack is watching.

AW Education: 50 Rescue Boats, 2M RMB & 2 Hope Schools-Multi-Sector Philanthropy Empowers Youth & Vulnerable Communities

Posted on by sHq_LoGiNz

BEIJING, Jan. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In today’s society, a company’s success is measured not only by its business achievements but also by its commitment to social responsibility. As a leading and influential international education institution, AW Education actively engages in a wide range of public welfare initiatives, guided by its distinctive corporate values, innovative vitality, and strong sense of responsibility. Through concrete actions, the company has charted its own path in fulfilling social responsibility and set a positive example for the international education industry.

AW Education Philanthropy Activities

Caring for Special Groups and Youth: Empowering Growth Through Educational Resources

In November 2025, AW Education collaborated with the Beijing Yitianshi Public Welfare Foundation to visit the Qicai Yangguang Rehabilitation Center in Pinggu District, Beijing, China, delivering heartfelt supplies to children with special needs. During the visit, AW Education staff engaged warmly with the children through games and shared meals. The initiative represented not only material support but also genuine care and encouragement for the children’s growth, helping to ignite hope and confidence in their future.

AW Education has also made sustained efforts to support the development of young talent. In November 2024, AW Education’s first book, Echoes of Youth — Responsibility and Commitment of Twenty-Two Overseas Students, was published. At the book launch, Mr. Wang Jing, founder and CEO of AW Education, announced that all royalties from the book would be donated to the International Scientific Exchange Foundation of China to support the cultivation and development of scientific and technological talent. This initiative reflects AW Education’s firm support for young people contributing to the nation through overseas study and innovation, and injects strong momentum into nurturing youth with global vision and innovative capabilities.

Rooted in Local Communities and Public Welfare: Extending Philanthropy Beyond Education

The value of education extends far beyond the classroom. AW Education’s philanthropic efforts also extend into rural communities and emergency livelihood support.

From 2021 to 2022, AW Education participated consecutively in Tencent Charity’s “99 Giving Day” campaign and supported the Yao Foundation’s “Sports for Development” initiative, donating basketball equipment to two Hope Primary Schools in Shaanxi Province to help children in mountainous areas pursue their sports dreams. Additionally, in partnership with the Future Smile Charitable Foundation, AW Education established the “AW Tomorrow Book House” project. The project focuses on reading as a foundation and promotes the development of reading literacy and comprehensive abilities through book collections and themed activities, creating community-based libraries close to children’s homes.

AW Education’s ability to respond quickly in emergency situations further demonstrates the warmth and efficiency of its philanthropic actions. In 2021, Henan Province experienced rare and prolonged heavy rainfall, resulting in severe flooding across multiple areas. AW Education promptly donated 50 inflatable rescue boats and organized a series of relief efforts, contributing RMB 2 million to support post-disaster reconstruction and recovery in local schools. In these critical moments, the role of an “education institution” gave way to that of a “responsible contributor,” as AW Education delivered tangible support and hope to affected regions, reflecting the company’s deep sense of solidarity with society.

Looking ahead, AW Education will continue to uphold its philanthropic mission, exploring and innovating public welfare models across education, talent development, and disaster relief. By brightening more futures through philanthropic action, the company aims to contribute further to social progress and development. Whether rooted domestically or expanding internationally, AW Education remains committed to promoting the spirit of public welfare and demonstrating the social responsibility and commitment of Chinese education brands.
