Polis siasat isu cip AI Nvidia sejak 2025, kata Saifuddin

Batu Jaya - The investigation into Malaysia being used as a transit point for the transfer of artificial intelligence (AI) technology from Nvidia to other countries began by police since April 2025, according to Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. The probe, carried out in the wake of a US accusation, also involves potential illicit acquisition and the use of proxy companies in Malaysia.

Besides the police, other agencies involved in the investigation include the Securities Commission (STAC), Bank Negara, the Ministry of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI), and the Communications and Multimedia Commission.

Ismail stated that the scope of the police investigation is focused on the possibility of Malaysia being used as a transit point for the transfer of AI technology to other countries. The results of the investigation are reported to MITI as the lead agency for further action and coordination with the accuser. Recently, the government, through MITI, confirmed the lack of solid evidence or proof linking Nvidia AI to Megaspeed International Pte Ltd and its subsidiary, Speedmatrix Sdn Bhd, which are based in Singapore.

Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also confirmed that Malaysia has not received a formal request from Singapore or the US to investigate the matter.
