Malaysia‘s trade ministry said on Friday that it was working with customs to determine whether any chips brought into the country by SpeedMatrix, a local unit of Singapore-based cloud computing firm Megaspeed, were re–exported to other countries.

The ministry was responding to allegations that the firm may have been used to deliver US-restricted chips to China, and added that it has never cleared MegaSpeed International Pte Ltd or SpeedMatrix.

It said it was working closely with authorities in Singapore and the United States and considering further measures to strengthen controls where necessary.
