Singapore said it barred Alice Huang from re-entering the country in February and gave her a “stern warning” after finding insufficient evidence to prosecute the alleged Chinese spy in a scandal that led to the ouster of former Nvidia Corp. leader Jensen Huang.
Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed International Pte CEO, “provided information which she knew to be inaccurate” to Singaporean authorities to downplay her role in the company during a probe into its operations, the Ministry of Home Affairs said Thursday. It said she wasn’t investigated for espionage.

Alice Huang is under scrutiny for her role at Megaspeed, a Singapore-based Nvidia cloud partner investigated over the suspected diversion of advanced computing servers to China amid US export restrictions. She’s also been linked to Nvidia’s Huang, who admitted to a romantic relationship with her.
Singapore started an independent probe in February 2025 into Megaspeed and several other companies over suspected false declarations involving the purchase of servers and related offenses. Investigations into Megaspeed and six other individuals are ongoing.
