US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross confirmed the action in a statement to Reuters.
"The United States will not cede leadership in global innovation," Ross said. "The department is committed to protecting US national security and foreign policy interests by encouraging US industry to fully engage and advocate for US technologies to become international standards."
The Commerce Department publicly announced the move later on Monday. It noted that US participation in standards-setting "influences the future of 5G, autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence and other cutting-edge technologies."...
"Confusion stemming from the May 2019 entity list update had inadvertently sidelined US companies from some technical standards conversations, putting them at a strategic disadvantage," said Naomi Wilson, senior director of policy for Asia at the Information Technology Industry Council, which represents companies including Amazon.com Inc, Qualcomm Inc and Intel Corp.
"This much-needed clarification will allow companies to once again compete and lead in these foundational activities that help enable the rollout of advanced technologies, such as 5G and AI, across markets," she said. "We look forward to reviewing the rule once posted and working with the administration on implementation."
Reuters exclusively reported last month that the amendment had been drafted and was awaiting approval.
Can you believe it, the Americans are trying to claim leadership in 5G technology when they have none, and wanting to set the standards and specifications for this technology? After banning Huawei from the American market they suddenly realised their stupidity by excluding themselves from being a player in 5G technology, no speaking rights, and quickly rushed in to want to be the leader and to set the agenda! This is like a blind man crashing into a meeting to tell the group that he is there to show them the way, on what can be done, what cannot and how it should be done.
5G is a revelation on how backward the Americans have fallen behind the Chinese and desperately grabbing at straws trying to thwart the progress made by Huawei, China, and even wanting to lead the conversation.
When you are behind, backward, you are behind and backward. Stop pretending otherwise. Huawei China is the pipe piper in this race and setting the standards. There is no need for someone who did not know what is 5G to gatecrash into a meeting to call the shot.
And stop spreading the lie that China is stealing American technology when there is nothing to steal in the first place. It is the Americans that will be stealing Chinese technology on 5G.
PS. And Singapore awarded 5G infrastructure building to Nokia and Ericsson. Do these companies have 5G technology? If not, would Huawei, out of contention for whatever reasons, become the subcontractor to these companies to finish the jobs for them if they can't? Why not give job to Huawei who is world leader in 5G technology? Would this become an expensive mistake for awarding the contract to companies that are far behind Huawei in 5G technology? Singapore not going for the best and cheapest? Funny, funny, funny.
It is like letting the Americans to dictate the regulations on 5G technology when they did not know what 5G is all about.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts: The United States has valid complaints about Huawei, but US President Donald Trump is botching the negotiation.
The principal issue with Huawei is the lack of reciprocal market access. As long as Huawei has access to all three major markets – the US, European Union and China – and foreign tech companies are prevented from having full access to the Chinese market, it will soon dominate the global 5G market.
With access to all markets, Huawei can sustain research and development budgets larger than its major competitors, Ericsson and Nokia, combined. They cannot compete with Huawei’s superior technological advance. CNA
This is confirmation that Nokia and Ericsson are behind Huawei. Why go for backward technology? This could be a very big financial decision made under political pressure.
Mr RB.
Can u believe the stupidity of the Sinkies Leaders who had sanctioned Nokia and Errison to be Sinkieland 5G Operators? ?
These two ALREADY over the hills and redundant.
Who's buying Errison and Nokia phones now with their technologies.
Only those Elderies who just make normal phone calls for easy use.
Afraid of their White Masters who will sanction them and spite China's Advance Technologies.
Think Matland more SMART in having Huawei and have to really stay there when their agreement with our sissy Vivi allowed us to go up there.
This silly sissy Vivi still stalling their offers with good grace.
Only want their best of cheap essential products to come here except the free exchange of travels amongst our people.
Wait till they turned face and ban their farmland produce to feed your starving POP then you will wake up too late.
Lucky, got sanctuary to have their stream and river water and fresh farm produce there instead of sai cheo and grass in Sinkieland.
What's you expect from a CECA Indian Communication Minister ?
The obeisance to US on awards of 5G contracts in Singapore is very obvious. There must be seething anger in Beijing.
VTO, VTO, VTO.....
Me think the telcos choice of 5G vendors is more political than commercial. Why not, the cost are be higher, their tech are behind HW by years. How can ST and starhub be considered pte co when both are under TH. Perhaps bought into the fear of security breaches hyped up by Uncle Sam w/o a shred of evidence. Or maybe coerced like 5 eyes nations?Notice how defensive Iswaran was in interview with CNBC by stressing HW wasn't banned , and given a small prize to show its fair. I hope consumers wouldnt pay thru their nose in future.
Stupidity at the core. How can they give the contract to backward technology?
This is how this country would continue to rot under this regime, to become third world. Controlled by external government. Crony country. No more independent.
Punching above your weight, my foot. My two lanpar laughing.
Shame shame shame.
Hi Anon.
FROM so called 1st World to the Slums.
1st World where you have our Elderies still slotting at Food Centres with plasters all over their legs and heads.
Foreigners be sniggering back our backs.
Calling yourselves a First World Nation where you don't even take care of your Elderly Folks.
These are the Folks who helped built up the NATION for you.
What's stuipd Notion that they are doing for the fun and exercises of it and also their independence and pride.
Whilst you parasites drawn multi millions salaries and bonuses.
When the US eases virus lockdown, Singapore also eases circuit breaker. Now the US is facing surging new infection cases, will Singapore likewise?
Singapore elites copy everything from US, and that's bad, Tommy Koh said. One example he cited is the banks' CEO multi-million-dollar salary compared to the mean bank workers' salary, and not caring about the Gini coefficient.
This paying themselves and their kakis million dollar salaries must be stopped. Every joker doing sweet fuck all and collecting millions of dollars. How to justify for them and keep raising taxes and charges to pay them. And the cost of living keeps going up.
VTO.
The
US was indeed far ahead at the Forefront of Hi-tech.
General Electric, Ford Motor, Boeing, Dupont and many more were leaders in many fields.
However,
wind of change and thing goes in cycle are the Facts of Nature.
No dynasty lasts forever, so is any other espects of nature.
No one should be complacent and conceited to stay in the Lead and simply to stay relevant.
Boeing 737Max and Ex-computer giant IBM are glaring examples of regressed developments.
China
cannot rests on her laurel and be complacent to stay ahead.
Boeing and IBM are going to be history soon. No one is going to buy Boeing aircraft anymore except the Americans. But very few Americans would want to fly in them. Oops, maybe a few silly crony countries may be arm twisted to buy Boeings against their wishes.
And IBM now has nothing to sell.
Yes RB, just like Singapore not appointing Huawei to provide 5G technology. Funny indeed.
Chinese carrier to buy 100 homegrown aircraft
Chinese carrier China Express announced that it has signed a framework agreement with Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC) to buy and operate a total of 100 planes - including ARJ21-700 planes, China's first domestically made regional jetliner, and C919 commercial airliner planes - starting from 2020.
Lin Zhijie, a veteran market watcher, said that the agreement shows that China's self-made airplanes have started market-oriented development and operation. "It has some special significance as China Express is a privately owned airline," Lin noted.
An employee of China Express said that Chinese carriers should take the responsibility to support the development of homegrown aircraft, industry news website reported. "For an airplane's market development, building and being used is equally important."
Now Singapore Telcos' decisions have given Mike Pompeo's fodder on his anti-China and anti-Hwawei crusade, coming the very next day.
https://asia.nikkei.com/Spotlight/Huawei-crackdown/US-says-Huawei-tide-is-turning-as-countries-shun-China-5G.
If these decisions to award non Hwawei vendors are not based on merit but so as not to displease one party, then is a real shame.
Even the US military establishment is losing out in weapons sales, particularly in the Middle East, to Russia. Turkey, an ally of the USA is even buying Russian arms.
The USA is losing out in many ways for being arrogant and over confident that they are untouchable, but over the last couple of decades, China has overtaken them in investments in innovation and manufacturing, such that the USA now produces very little that China wants. When strategic arms sales to China are out of the question, the fact is the trade in-balance between the two countries is bound to widen, with China exporting more to the USA. How can that be blamed totally on China?
Anyway, US consumers will suffer the consequences of USA decoupling completely from China.
At the moment the clown in the White House and his gangsters are acting as if the USA is in the upper and can pressure China by cutting off trade. And this message is assumed to be the truth by the pro western media.
They forgot that the Chinese market and the Chinese factories are two nuclear bombs in the hands of China. Without the Chinese factories producing cheap goods, without the Chinese market to absorb all the produces of the American farmers, the owners of raw materials, these businesses would not be able to find buyers and would collapse when China stop buying.
And there is no way there can bring back the factories to produce goods to compete with China in the international market.
Once decoupled, the American economy would tank.
National Security Advisor O'Brien: "The Chinese Communist Party seeks total control over the people's lives. This means economic control, it means political control, it means physical control, and perhaps, most importantly it means, thought control."
China retort: "You've imagined control in four aspects in China, but missed the most important and most real one: China has brought the epidemic under control. At the same time, the US has completely lost control of it."
Is Singapore building 5G infrastructure or 4G Plus technology claiming to be 5G?
Why would a country spend billions on fake stuff when the real stuff is available?
