Asian governments react to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s exit

Nvidia's board launched an independent investigation after reports that CEO Jensen Huang was targeted by a Chinese spy operation; Huang admitted to an affair with Alice Huang, a former executive at Singapore-based chip company Megaspeed. China's foreign ministry rejected the spy allegations as groundless, while Singapore said it seized Alice Huang's passport in June 2025 over possible false declarations on server purchases, later found insufficient evidence, warned her and barred her from re-entering. South Korea's Science Ministry said Nvidia reaffirmed plans to supply 260,000 advanced GPUs, Taiwan's economy minister said the departure was unlikely to significantly change global AI industry growth, and Japan's Industry Ministry said it would closely monitor Nvidia.
