KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 13 — There has been no indication that artificial intelligence chips linked to the Nvidia-Megaspeed issue were exported from Malaysia, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

“There has not been any indication of that,” he told reporters today when asked whether there was evidence that the chips had been exported from the country.

Anwar also said the Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (Miti) had given a report on the matter this morning.

“We will cooperate with all the agencies involved,” he said when met after he had performed Friday prayers at Madrasathul Gouthiyyah at Brickfields today.

To a question on whether Malaysia had received a formal request from Singapore or the United States regarding any probe on the Nvidia-Megaspeed issue, Anwar said Malaysia has not received any formal request from Singapore or the United States regarding the issue.

“Right now, we have not received any such request. But we will, of course, collaborate.

“Ours is a trading nation. We welcome investments. We want to make sure the rules are being followed,” he said.

In a statement earlier today, Miti said it had never cleared Singapore-based Megaspeed International Pte Ltd or its Malaysian affiliate, Speedmatrix Sdn Bhd.

Miti said Speedmatrix is a tenant at data centres in Malaysia and brings its own servers and AI chips into the country for its operations.
