How is Malaysia linked to Nvidia spy affair scandal?
A probe into Nvidia chip exports to China has raised questions over Malaysia's role.
Shareholders have filed a lawsuit against Nvidia and its CEO, Jensen Huang, alleging that the company concealed information about Huang's alleged relationship with a woman suspected of being a Chinese spy. The lawsuit claims that Nvidia and Huang misled investors by not disclosing the national security concerns surrounding the affair.
The CEO had an extramarital relationship with Alice Huang, a former executive at a Singapore-based company, according to the complaint. US authorities determined that Alice Huang was an asset of Chinese intelligence, suspected of working for China's ministry of state security. Nvidia CEO Huang acknowledged the affair in a letter to staff, expressing regret and apologizing to his family, employees, and shareholders.
The company has launched an independent investigation into the allegations. Three Republican House committee chairs have requested a meeting with Huang to discuss the matter.
