(Reuters) -Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company notified the U.S. that one of its chips had been found in a Huawei product after tech research firm TechInsights took apart the product and revealed a possible violation of export restrictions on the Chinese company, according to a person familiar with the matter.

PETALING JAYA: Badminton ’s exclusion from the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow , Scotland, is strange and shocking, says Badminton Association of Malaysia’s secretary-general Datuk Kenny Goh .

“There is badminton in almost every edition of the Games. There are a few badminton nations among the Common–wealth countries, so this exclusion is surprising and shocking.” In the 2022 edition, Malaysia won two golds through women’s doubles pair Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah and in the mixed team event. While surprised by the decision, Kenny feels the players could switch their focus fully on the Asian Games which will also be held in 2026 in Japan.
