Miti to investigate reports of US-sanctioned M’sian semicon firm: Amir Hamzah

Finance minister II says trade ministry, as the coordinating agency, should conduct in-depth study, find out if claims were accurate

2:49 PM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR – The Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry (Miti) will conduct further investigation following a report that the United States has imposed sanctions on a Malaysian company involved in semiconductor manufacturing. 

Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan said Miti, being the coordinating agency, must do an in-depth study on the matter as the company is among nearly 300 entities slapped with US sanctions. 

“It is better for Miti to fathom the issue and find out if it actually happened,” he told media here today. 

Al Jazeera reported that Malaysia-based semiconductor maker Jatronics Sdn Bhd was among nearly 300 entities Washington slapped with sanctions last month over their alleged links to Russia’s military suppliers. 

However, Amir Hamzah said he was made to understand that the Malaysian company is not a semiconductor producer but a trading company that sells semiconductor-related hardware. 

“Malaysia is an open economy. However, we want businesses to trade in the right way. So let the investigation be conducted and we will look at the findings. 

“The important thing is, Malaysia will not tolerate it if something bad is going on,” he added. – June 4, 2024
