PHILADELPHIA - Singapore and the United States have discussed the Megaspeed case at a senior-level meeting in Washington DC, with both countries committing to continue discussions on the matter.
The exchange took place during Singapore’s Minister for Digital Development and Information (MDDI) Josephine Teo’s Nov 12-13 visit to Washington DC, in the course of which she met key US government officials, including Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Michael Kratsios and Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau.
“Minister Teo and Deputy Secretary Landau discussed the facts of the case and reaffirmed the commitment by both countries to continuing communications on issues of mutual interest, including on matters relating to Megaspeed,” a MDDI spokesperson told The Straits Times in response to a question.
The details of the facts reviewed or concerns raised and the next steps agreed to were not disclosed.
Singapore’s Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) had said in a Nov 12 statement that the US had provided little help in its investigation into Megaspeed, an AI infrastructure company, and its former top executive Alice Huang.
The Singapore-based company, which reportedly bought high-end Nvidia chips worth billions of dollars, has been under investigation by the Singapore authorities since February 2025 over potentially false declarations relating to server purchases and other suspected offences.
