The statement provided three examples, the most prominent of which was Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC), China’s largest chip maker, which is partially owned by the Chinese state. The company had started recruiting staff via a front company set up in Taiwan as a subsidiary of a separate entity apparently based in the island of Samoa, the MJIB claimed.
Meanwhile, Chinese networking chip company Cloudnix, had “aggressively recruited talent from major global firms such as Intel and Microsoft since its establishment in 2020,” the MJIB said. The company had set out to hide its Chinese control by registering itself in Taiwan, and later, to avoid deeper scrutiny, as being owned by an entity based in Singapore.
A third, Shenzhen Torey Microelectronics Technology, had tried to hire Taiwanese from inside the country while keeping its presence on the island a secret.
