HONG KONG, June 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the conclusion of the "Double 6" mid-year shopping festival in Southeast Asia across major e-commerce platforms, global logistics service provider J&T Express delivered an outstanding performance. During the core promotional period, its overall parcel volume surged by 83.5% year-over-year ("YoY") to 213 million parcels, setting new records in core markets including Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and the Philippines.

During the "Double 6", J&T Express's average daily parcel volume in Southeast Asia reached 35.51 million. On June 2nd, the peak business day, the single-day parcel volume exceeded 37 million. Notably, the Indonesian and Thai markets performed exceptionally well, with cumulative parcel volumes increasing by 112% and 89% YoY, respectively. Leveraging its deeply covered line-haul and last-mile networks, J&T Express swiftly responded to the region-wide surge in parcel volume within a short period, ensuring the stable and efficient operation of its overall network.

To ensure the highly efficient operation of the entire Southeast Asian network during the promotional period, J&T Express proactively advanced infrastructure upgrades, transport capacity reserves, and human resources allocation across various markets ahead of time. In terms of capacity expansion, in addition to newly constructing and upgrading core sorting facilities in markets such as Thailand and the Philippines, J&T Express continued to drive the automated transformation of its operational processes. Automated and specialized sorting equipment were widely deployed at sorting centers and last-mile outlets across multiple Southeast Asian countries. Through the extensive synergy of intelligent equipment, J&T Express achieved a significant improvement in overall network operational efficiency.

In terms of transport capacity and human resources reserves, multiple countries also collaborated to ensure last-mile elasticity. Thailand newly purchased and deployed multiple line-haul and branch-line vehicles; the Philippines planned for an approximate 30% increase in human resources; and Vietnam established a three-tier flexible support team covering operations, dispatching, and comprehensive support, capable of supporting an additional daily capacity of approximately 120,000 parcels during the peak season.

In terms of technological empowerment, J&T Indonesia fully introduced an AI-based digital and intelligent system to monitor parcel flows in real time, ensuring the smooth distribution and circulation of massive parcel volumes during the promotional period. Concurrently, this system maintained close coordination with frontline operation teams, helping them efficiently address unexpected situations such as extreme weather or natural disasters, ensuring smooth and highly efficient parcel circulation during the peak season.

Regarding deepening localized operations and employee care, J&T Express also took several pragmatic measures. For key merchants, J&T Vietnam provided special support by extending the door-to-door pickup time by two hours, helping merchants improve their shipping rates and reducing order delays caused by missed pickups. In Thailand, focusing on the growth needs of small and medium-sized merchants, J&T Express launched a "Joint Advertising" initiative, covering all 38 MRT stations across Bangkok and leveraging 1,200 electronic screens on 54 trains to boost merchant exposure. Furthermore, in response to the persistent high temperatures in Thailand, major sorting centers were regularly equipped with cooling facilities, and free beverages were provided to all frontline staff during the final sprint of the peak season, demonstrating its commitment to safeguarding peak operations with practical actions.

The successful fulfillment during the "Double 6" shopping festival once again validates J&T Express's profound accumulation and leading position in the Southeast Asian market. Through region-wide network synergy, regular infrastructure upgrades, the application of cutting-edge AI technologies, and refined localized operations, J&T Express not only successfully handled the mid-year traffic surge but also provided stable, swift, and reliable logistics guarantees for e-commerce platforms, merchants, and consumers. Looking ahead, J&T Express will continue to deepen its presence in the Southeast Asian market, continuously increase investments in global logistics infrastructure construction and digital transformation, and commit to comprehensively empowering and driving the prosperity of the regional e-commerce ecosystem through a constantly optimized global intelligent logistics network.

Asfinag und ÖAMTC kombinieren emotionale Bewusstseinsbildung mit neuer Technologie, um den „Arbeitsplatz Straße“ sicherer zu machen. Unter dem Slogan „Danke, dass du auf meine Mama/meinen Papa aufpasst“ starten die Organisationen eine gemeinsame Kampagne, bei der die Kinder der Mitarbeitenden als Botschafter auftreten. Hintergrund sind mehrere schwere Unglücke mit Autobahn-Personal: Im Jahr 2025 war Asfinag-Personal in sechs Unfälle auf Autobahnen involviert, einer davon endete tödlich. Parallel zu der Kampagne wird in Österreich ein KI-basiertes Warnsystem im Live-Betrieb getestet.

Die Dimension des Problems ist erheblich. Laut Daten von Statistik Austria und ÖAMTC kam es 2025 zu insgesamt 2.137 Unfällen mit Personenschaden auf Autobahnen und Schnellstraßen, 45 davon verliefen tödlich. Als häufigste Ursachen gelten Unachtsamkeit und Ablenkung. Eine IFES-Umfrage zeigt, wie verbreitet riskantes Verhalten ist: Ein Drittel der Befragten gibt an, während der Fahrt Handy-Nachrichten zu lesen oder zu schreiben, die Hälfte bedient Navi oder Radio. Unter den unter 30-Jährigen räumen 60 Prozent ein, schon einmal während der Fahrt ein Video aufgenommen zu haben.

Das neue KI-System zielt darauf ab, die Arbeit von Straßenkolonnen unter fließendem Verkehr besser abzusichern. Auf Sicherungsfahrzeugen oder Warnleitanhängern montierte Kameras erfassen Fahrzeuge in rund 300 Metern Entfernung. Die Künstliche Intelligenz analysiert daraufhin den Fahrweg der herannahenden Fahrzeuge und löst bei Kollisionsgefahr Warnungen aus: Die Person am Steuer wird mit einem Hupsignal aufmerksam gemacht, während Straßenarbeiter ein kleines Gerät am Körper tragen, das im Gefahrenfall vibriert. Diese wenigen zusätzlichen Sekunden sollen reichen, um sich aus der Gefahrenzone zurückzuziehen.

Derzeit sind fünf Kameras im Einsatz, weitere 21 Kollisionswarner werden angeschafft. Der Testbetrieb läuft bis Jahresende, anschließend soll über eine flächendeckende Einführung entschieden werden. Auch der ÖAMTC erprobt die Technologie im praktischen Alltag: Elf Fahrzeuge des Clubs wurden mit dem System ausgerüstet, sie werden in Wien, Niederösterreich und dem Burgenland getestet. Die Kombination aus KI-gestützter Früherkennung und einer breit angelegten Kampagne gegen Ablenkung am Steuer soll das Risiko für Verkehrspersonal senken – und zugleich Fahrerinnen und Fahrer stärker für die Konsequenzen ihres Verhaltens sensibilisieren.
