Huyen, aka Huyen Chip, ranked fifth in the annual Top Voices list released this week by the U.S. professional networking site. It compiles the list by examining all sharing activity on its platform from October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020, and using a combination of quantitative and qualitative signals including engagement (comments, reactions and shares), follower growth and posting cadence. It said: "Having worked at prominent tech companies including Netflix and NVIDIA, Huyen joined the AI startup Snorkel last December. A Stanford graduate, Huyen turned to LinkedIn to find reviewers for the course she'll start teaching there in January next year, Machine Learning Systems Design." Before coming to the U.S., Chip helped launch Vietnam's second most popular web browser, Coc Coc.

Shah Alam, Malaysia – The attorney general is pushing ahead with the trial of Vietnamese Doan Thi Huong in the murder of Kim Jong Nam despite the unexpected decision this week to free her co-accused. The prosecution told the Shah Alam court on Thursday the attorney general had considered "all reasons" but 30-year-old Huong's trial for killing the half-brother of North Korea's leader would proceed. The prosecutor did not elaborate. Indonesian Siti Aisyah was freed on Monday after the prosecution suddenly withdrew the charge against her. She is now back in Indonesia.
