In response to media queries, the Spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs indicated that the process audit of the Institute of Microelectronics (IME) offered by IME on a voluntary basis to the United States Government has been successfully completed. The US officials who came for the audit were satisfied with the audit.
The offer to have the audit done was conveyed by Minister for Foreign Affairs K Shanmugam to Secretary of State John Kerry in March 2013, in the spirit of cooperation and openness to satisfy the US that allegations of illegal transfers of US technology from IME to the Chinese company Huawei were completely untrue and without basis.
