Singapore reveals a decision it took months ago regarding Alice Huang, who is linked to the Nvidia CEO scandal.

Singapore banned Alice Huang, the technology executive and woman at the center of the scandal surrounding former NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, from entering the country again earlier this year. US officials believe that Alice Huang worked as a spy for Chinese intelligence, exploiting her position as a former director of Megaspeed International, a Singapore-based company that provides cloud computing and data center services.

Reports indicate that she had a close relationship with Huang, which she used to transfer intelligence to China regarding chip technologies produced by NVIDIA, as well as to facilitate the supply of advanced chips to Beijing, in violation of US export controls. The Singaporean Ministry of Home Affairs said on Thursday that the authorities prevented Alice Huang from entering the country again earlier this year, because they believed that she had deliberately provided inaccurate information to the police during an investigation into whether Megaspeed International had made “false statements related to the purchase of servers.”

The ministry said in a statement that the Singaporean police concluded in February that there was insufficient evidence to prove that Alice Huang had committed any wrongdoing in relation to those statements, which were suspected of being false. She added that the police investigation into Megaspeed International, which began in early 2025, is still ongoing.

The ministry stressed: "Singapore does not tolerate companies that exploit their connection to the country to circumvent or violate export controls imposed by other countries, through fraud or unfair practices." Huang had resigned from his position as CEO of NVIDIA after 33 years, according to an announcement issued by the company's board of directors, on Thursday morning, ending speculation that lasted for several days about his future, against the backdrop of reports about his relationship with a woman suspected by American officials of working as a spy for China, and another who spoke of his emotional connection to an executive working under his management, amid an investigation into the possibility of him being targeted by a foreign intelligence service.
