On May 2, 2026, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) confirmed it requested former economy minister Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli to provide a statement as part of an investigation into alleged abuse of power and misappropriation. The probe involves an RM1.1 billion strategic semiconductor industry collaboration agreement between the Economy Ministry and UK-based Arm Limited. Earlier on May 2, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) fully exited its investment in Arm Holdings plc. This followed Arm's announcement on May 1 of a strategic shift, unveiling its first production silicon, the Arm AGI CPU, and signaling a move beyond its decades-old licensing model. Developed with Meta and manufactured by TSMC on a 3nm node, the AGI CPU targets inference and agentic workloads in large data centers, addressing increasing demand for energy-efficient compute across the AI industry.
