According to a report released by China Taiwan Network , Taiwan leader Tsai Ing-wen publicly stated in an interview with Japanese media that the semiconductor industry in Taiwan is crucial to the world and is an indispensable part of the global market. Changes in the situation in the Taiwan Strait will affect the world's high-tech industry supply chain. The Taiwan authorities are trying to use TSMC to call on countries around the world to pay attention to Taiwan, hoping that countries can intervene in this matter to stabilize the current tense situation in the Taiwan Strait.
Tsai Ing-wen's approach may be related to the just-concluded US lawmakers' expedition to Taiwan. The group represented by US Senator Ma Ki had in-depth exchanges with Tsai Ing-wen and others on economic and trade cooperation between the US and Taiwan during the expedition. Tsai Ing-wen expressed her great welcome to the proposals for deepening cooperation proposed by the United States, claiming that the United States has always been an important partner of Taiwan and that US-Taiwan cooperation will help promote economic development in the Indo-Pacific region. The visiting delegation also discussed issues related to the establishment of cooperation between the company and the US semiconductor industry with representatives of TSMC.
Some time ago, the Biden administration signed a "chip bill" worth $280 billion, requiring companies that accept subsidies to the US semiconductor industry can only build factories in the United States and not provide help to China. The United States attempts to use the bill to engage in non-fair competition with China and suppress the development of China's semiconductor industry. Regarding the United States' anti-China policy, TSMC expressed its hope to obtain US subsidies for chips to achieve the construction of a factory in Phoenix City . The visit by US lawmakers is to further "wind" TSMC and deepen chip cooperation with the company.
At present, the Taiwan authorities regard the semiconductor industry in Taiwan as a "bargaining chip", hoping to get support from other countries, and try to make the final struggle. Tsai Ing-wen's wrong words and deeds were ridiculed by the people in Taiwan, believing that the DPP authorities and American politicians are just "making a show". Without taking into account the lives and safety of the people on the island, it will only put Taiwan in danger. According to the latest poll data released by the "Taiwan Public Opinion Foundation", the support of Tsai Ing-wen by Taiwanese people has decreased, down 7 percentage points compared with July.
It is worth mentioning that when Tsai Ing-wen was giving a speech recently, some Taiwanese people shouted in the audience that the Taiwan authorities should not further provoke the mainland, nor should they create a crisis, and that peace in Taiwan needs. It can be seen that Tsai Ing-wen's approach has aroused dissatisfaction and opposition from the people in Taiwan.
In order to satisfy their own selfishness, the mainland has taken tough measures to respond to the bad behavior of some "Taiwan independence" diehard elements in order to satisfy their own selfishness and intensify their collusion with the United States and try to hinder the process of unification. The mainland has released a list of sanctions, and the "Taiwan independence" diehard elements included in the list will face severe punishment from the mainland, strictly prohibit these people from entering the mainland, restrict their cooperation with the mainland, and do not allow related companies to make profits in the mainland, and hold them accountable for life. Xiao Meiqin, Chen Shuhua, Ke Jianming and others are all in this list of sanctions.
Mainland repeatedly warned the DPP authorities and "Taiwan independence" elements not to try to "rely rely on the United States to seek independence". All attempts to provoke cross-strait relations and disrupt cross-strait peace will not succeed in the end. The reunification of the motherland is the general trend of history and an inevitable result. If the DPP authorities and "Taiwan independence" elements remain stubborn, they will inevitably be subject to strong sanctions from the mainland. At the same time, I hope that the compatriots in Taiwan can look at the current situation rationally and not be misled by these "Taiwan independence" elements. They must see their essence clearly, consciously and proactively draw a clear line with them, and jointly resist any forces and activities that "split" the motherland with their compatriots in the mainland, and promote the great cause of national reunification.
