When U.S. Secretary of Finance Bescent was interviewed, 99% of the world's high-performance chips are produced in Taiwan, which has become the biggest single risk in the global economic situation. Economic Minister Ye Mingxin said today that the stronger the benefits and practicality of Taiwan's industry, the greater the contribution to the integrity of global supply chains. "The strength of Taiwan's industry is definitely not a risk."
Regarding the market announcement that Intel has contacted Apple to seek investment, whether it will affect Taiwan's status, Wang Mingxin responded that Taiwan's power occupies a leading position in the global semiconductor industry. The key is to possess advanced process technology, not other factors such as customer or equity changes, so he is not worried.
US Secretary of Finance Scott Bessent said at the 24th US time that the most serious single potential risk in the world's economy is that 99% of high-performance chips are produced in Taiwan. Taiwan is doing well and has an excellent industrial ecosystem. But in terms of risk management, "at least 30%, 40% or even 50% of our needs should be brought back to the United States or the Allies, whether Japan or Central China, we are promoting this every day."
When interviewed by media in the afternoon, Yang Mingxin said that Taiwan's exported industries are indispensable to the global supply chain. If the Taiwan industry is more profitable and stronger, the greater the contribution to the integrity of the global supply chain. "The strength of Taiwan's industry is definitely not a risk."
Yong Mingxin said that General Xu Qingte has revealed that the industry policy is "based on Taiwan, layout the world, and marketing the world". In terms of chips, the most advanced chips have been produced and manufactured in Taiwan, or the latest research and development has been produced and manufactured in Taiwan, and at the same time, it will also be planned to be global. The Ministry of Economic Affairs will uphold this principle.
