SUBJECT: BLUE LANTERN LEVEL 3: PRE-LICENSE END-USE CHECK
ON LICENSE 050183769

REF: 2006 BLUE LANTERN GUIDEBOOK


1. This is an Action Request. See paragraphs 2-4.


2. The Department's Office of Defense Trade Controls
Compliance (PM/DTCC) requests Post's assistance in conducting
a pre-license check on license 050183769 for the export of
International Traffic in Arms (ITAR)-controlled accessories
and components for various military aircraft to Malaysia.
Post is requested to complete this Blue Lantern inquiry
within 30 days. Lack of response to a Blue Lantern inquiry
will affect pending and future licenses involving parties to
this license.


3. Reason for request: Unfamiliar consignee, IGTEC SDN BHD.
No documentation from foreign end-user, Royal Malaysian AIR
Force (RMAF).


4. ACTION: The Department requests that Post confirm that the
Foreign End User, RMAF, ordered the items listed for the
purpose stated on the license application. In addition, the
Department requests that Post make inquiries with appropriate
officials to establish the bona fides of IGTEC in the
transaction. Conduct a site visit to assess the company's
reliability as a recipient of United States Munitions List
(USML) articles as well as an assessment of the company's
on-site security and operations. If a site visit is not
possible, please inform the PM/DTCC case officer.

The following points are included for guidance:

--Can IGTEC provide documentation that verifies the end-use
of the aircraft components, such as a contract or purchase
order?

--When was IGTEC established and who are its principals?

--What is the nature of the company's businesses -- what type
of items
does it handle? Does the company serve as a broker?

--What type of organizations are among its typical customers
and where are they located?

--Does IGTEC understand the restrictions on USML items,
especially the
prohibition against unauthorized re-transfer and re-export?

END ACTION.
