马来西亚机场查获1211万美元超级智能（SI）芯片：30台服务器虚报电子元件走私，海关称涉案网络至少5案逾1亿令吉
马来西亚海关10月28日说，本月在吉隆坡国际机场查获一批先进超级智能（SI）芯片，总值约4950万令吉（约1211万美元）。机场海关主任 Aspalila Ag Tuah 在记者会上说，执法人员10月15日在该机场自贸区检查时发现30台装有先进SI芯片的服务器，这批货物被虚报为普通电子元件。
初步调查显示，这批货物来自一个亚洲国家、计划再出口到另一个亚洲国家，这类转运需要贸易许可。她说：「这些服务器被虚报成电子元件，经马来西亚转运，就是为了让货物在出口到下一目的地时不受限制。」一家协助这批货运输的马来西亚公司已被传唤协助调查。
海关说，这批走私被怀疑出自一个犯罪网络之手——同一网络今年6月曾有一次类似的走私企图被海关挫败；与该网络相关的案件至少有5起，累计查获芯片总值超过1亿令吉。因调查仍在进行，她没有披露更多细节。马来西亚去年在美国施压下对美国原产的先进SI芯片实施出口管制，以阻断其流入中国的渠道。
Malaysia Seizes $12.1 Million in Super Intelligence (SI) Chips at Kuala Lumpur Airport: 30 Servers Falsely Declared, Syndicate Linked to at Least Five Cases
Malaysian customs said on October 28 that it seized about 49.5 million ringgit ($12.11 million) worth of advanced super intelligence (SI) chips this month at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The airport's customs director, Aspalila Ag Tuah, told reporters that on October 15 officers inspecting the airport's free trade zone found 30 server units containing advanced SI chips, falsely declared as electronic components.
Initial investigations found the shipment originated from an Asian country and was to be re-exported to another nation in the continent, a move requiring a trade permit. 'The servers were falsely declared as electronic components and shipped through Malaysia to ensure there would be no restrictions imposed while being exported to the next destination,' she said. A Malaysian firm that facilitated the shipment has been called in to assist investigations.
The shipment was suspected to have been carried out by a network responsible for a similar smuggling attempt foiled by customs in June; at least five cases have been linked to the syndicate, involving seizures of chips worth more than 100 million ringgit in total, she said, declining to give further details because the probe is ongoing. Malaysia imposed export controls last year on advanced SI chips of U.S. origin, following pressure from the United States to stem their flow into China.
