Taiwan Takes Action Against TSMC's Global Expansion
April 28, 2025 - 17:21
The Taiwan administration isn't pleased at all with TSMC's global expansion, especially in the US, as they are now pursuing formal law. In a significant move, Taiwan has enacted new legislation aimed at retaining the production of advanced semiconductor nodes within its borders. This decision comes amid growing concerns that TSMC's technology transfer efforts could undermine Taiwan's competitive edge in the semiconductor industry.
The new law is designed to ensure that critical technologies and manufacturing capabilities remain in Taiwan, reinforcing the island's position as a leader in semiconductor production. Officials argue that maintaining these advanced manufacturing processes domestically is vital for national security and economic stability.
As TSMC continues to expand its operations overseas, particularly in the United States, the Taiwanese government is taking a proactive stance to safeguard its technological assets. This legislation reflects Taiwan's commitment to preserving its semiconductor industry and addressing the challenges posed by global competition.
