Trump Calls For Malaysian-Born Intel CEO's Resignation Because: CHINA! CHINA!! CHINA!!!

Subscribe to our FREE US president Donald Trump has called for the immediate resignation of Intel's new CEO, Malaysian-born Lip-Bu Tan, accusing him of being 'highly conflicted' due to past investments in Chinese companies — some allegedly tied to the Chinese military. The demand comes at a delicate moment for Intel, which is undergoing a sweeping strategic overhaul under Tan's leadership, The Star Since taking over in March, Tan has announced plans to slash the company's workforce by 22% to 75,000 employees by year's end and pause construction on certain manufacturing plants as part of a cost-cutting drive. Trump's comments, posted on his Truth Social platform, followed a Reuters Reuters previously reported that between 2012 and late 2024, Tan — personally or through venture funds he founded — Intel, in a The controversy adds to Intel's challenges. Once the dominant name in chipmaking, the company has slipped behind Taiwan's TSMC in manufacturing capabilities and has little presence in the booming AI chip market dominated by Nvidia. Still, Intel remains a central player in Washington's push to boost domestic semiconductor production, having secured nearly $20 billion in federal grants and loans last year — the largest award under the 2022 CHIPS and Science Act. From Malaysia to the helm of Intel Born in 1959 in Muar, Johor, Malaysia, Lip-Bu Tan was raised in Singapore, where he graduated with a physics degree from Nanyang University at age 19.

After ‘Singaporeans only' claim, Johor Bahru council lists all car washes as high-risk activity

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 8 — The Johor Bahru City Council (MBJB) has reclassified all car wash centres in its jurisdiction as 'high-risk businesses,' putting them under increased monitoring and heavier regulation. JB Mayor Datuk Mohd Haffiz Ahmad said the stricter rules were introduced after complaints about poor practices and alleged discrimination against local customers. He also warned that centres found favouring foreign clients over locals risk losing their licences, The Star reported. Previously, a viral post alleged that a centre refused serve to Malaysians in order to cater to Singaporeans, though MBJB has yet to receive an official complaint. The mayor suggested that such cases may be linked to centres prioritising full-service packages during peak times. He said the new rules aim to ensure operators uphold cleanliness, environmental responsibility, and fair service practices. New applicants must prove their premises have proper drainage and do not harm roads or waterways. Centres employing foreigners must maintain complete records of their staff and submit to checks by MBJB and Immigration. The city has already shut down 86 car wash businesses in 18 months for operating without approval.
