If you're not getting what you need for your career at Intel, under this manager, suggest looking for a new role outside of Intel. If that's happening with your manager today, it will likely not change. And, although its not right, it does happens at Intel and others will turn their heads. Not their problem. Find a boss and a place where you'll be appreciated.
Your company owns your work product. Everyone knows who the top contributors are as well as the best leaders. Stop worrying about who gets the credit because festering on it will only drag you down and get you on the layoff list.

Drowning people will latch on anything. Protect yourself. Easier said than done.
Managers are like dogs, you have to teach them what your expectations are. Follow the three P's to accomplish this; Patience, Persistence, and Positive Re-enforcement.
Although it may be tempting at times, NEVER HIT your manager. Use a firm voice but never yell or get violent when scolding them.
Training your manager properly will ensure a long and healthy relationship.
That's just the way things are, especially in the East.
You are not working for an abstract "company", you work for your immediate boss. He maximize his interest the same way you maximize yours.
Details on what your manager stole from you?
The company needs to try report things like this.

It sounds like the OP didn't train their manager properly.
Taking credit is one thing. I mean, a manager's job is to get things done through people. Good ones give their people credit because 1) it's the right thing to do and 2) they'll get more good work that way.
Discrediting is another. What exactly did he/she do?
Did he file for a patent or something? If it was just regular work, not sure you should do a thing
I would rather ask if you are on track to get a promotion under this manager. You should be having frank conversations with you manager about your career and their perception of your performance to your current and next grade level. If this is not inline with your expectations, leave the team and pick a better manager.
And as much as possible do work that gets exposure outside your team, preferably to other BUs. Your manager shouldn't be the only one who knows what you do.
Play the long game. Eventually they will be promoted so far out of their element and exposed.
Peons don't own the fruits of their work. Their master does.
Not illegal. This is standard Intel procedure. Leave, or bow down to the third world culture.
If you can prove it, lawyer up.
Just remember - rocks and glass houses.
