@Mike_Pence @POTUS Here is the thing, 1. Trump will be begging Xi for chip now, if Taiwan is not an independent country. 2. Taiwan can not steal what US doesn't have. TSMC holds 2nd largest number of IP patent in US. 3. Taiwan is 7500 miles from US, so do first island chain countries, good luck!

In 2024, the late Ed Feulner and I wrote this essay on why continued U.S. support for Taiwan Matters. For Our National Security and all our Allies across the Asia-Pacific, @POTUS should sign the $14B in Arms Sales approved by Congress without delay.

“Taiwan is part of China” is not reality. It’s a prescriptive view that Taiwan SHOULD be part of China — not unlike Donald Trump calling Canada the 51st state or threatening to annex Greenland. 1/3

Embajada de Taiwán en Paraguay-中華民國駐巴拉圭大使館
La República de China (Taiwán) es un país democrático y soberano e independiente. Pekín no tiene derecho a reclamar soberanía sobre Taiwán. Mantener el statu quo en el Estrecho siempre ha sido una postura de los 23 millones de taiwaneses que aman la libertad y la democracia.

Taiwan will remain critical for advanced semiconductors for at least another decade — not 12-18 months. Chamath is a sharp investor, but this feels like applying SaaS-style thinking (build once, scale infinitely at near-zero marginal cost) to the harsh realities of chip manufacturing. The physical world doesn’t work that way: -Leading-edge fab construction takes 2-3 years. -Equipment installation, process qualification, and reaching high yields in volume production adds at least another year. -Key tools like EUV machines have 12-16 month lead times. Taiwan/TSMC and its ecosystem still produce the vast majority of the world’s most advanced logic chips. The CHIPS Act is helping the US ramp up, but even optimistic projections show America reaching only around 14% of global advanced capacity by 2032. Just Look at Intel’s struggles. The painful reality behind its 5-Nodes-In-4-Years plan is showpiece process nodes. It’s not even winning 3nm customers away from TSMC, despite explosive AI chip demand. TSMC is expanding 3nm capacity (not even the most advanced node) - as fast as it can. There’s a mountain of money chasing 3nm capacity right now — yet none of it can be served by US production today. "Being “close” on a new process node in the lab is nowhere near “ready” for commercial manufacturing. TSMC’s Arizona plants are important (1st fab in production, 2nd coming), but they represent a small share of total capacity, come with higher costs, and still rely heavily on Taiwanese expertise. And it’s not just the fabs. Taiwan dominates the full supply chain — specialty chemicals, substrates, advanced packaging, talent clusters, infrastructure, and fab know-how built over decades. Replicating this elsewhere is extremely difficult. Bottom line: Smart “friendshoring” (Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, EU) plus building redundancy, makes sense. US investments are good long-term insurance, but they complement Taiwan’s capabilities, they do not replace them anytime soon. Its 'Silicon Shield' remains very much in place.

Chamath: Taiwan Loses Its Strategic Importance in 18 Months @chamath: “ We're 18 months from Taiwan not being an important moment of conversation the way it is today. Why 18 months? Because we are at a point where we're probably 1-2 nanometers away from being able to do what we need Taiwan to strategically do for us. And so as we scale up our chip fabs, as we get more capacity, and interestingly, there are these orthogonal technologies being developed. I don't know if you guys saw, but Neuralink was showcasing a machine that is literally operating at the almost nanometer scale to do the brain operations for the implantation, all automatically. When you have the dexterity and the capability mechanically to make these things, the real reason then is a very different one than what it is today. Today, it's economic. And if you take that off the table, I think we'll have a very different attitude to Taiwan.”

If only Trump treating Taiwan like a bargaining chip were something new. But I am old enough to remember when Bush II declared he defend Taiwan to the end, then a few years later we had an arms freeze. Then Obama stopped arms sales when they needed the PRC for the climate... etc
Phillips P. OBrien@PhillipsPOBrien

All democratic states that thought they were good friends with the USA, beware. If Trump can treat a free and democratic Taiwan as a “bargaining chip”, he can do the same to you.

The only difference between Taiwan & every other country is most countries are so afraid of China that we lie about Taiwan. It's appeasement. 🇹🇼 is a sovereign, independent democracy. It has an evil bully as a neighbour. Let's stand up to bullies. Tell the truth: Taiwan is free

THE FREE WORLD WILL DEFEND TAIWAN. WHATEVER IT TAKES. Taiwan is the frontline of freedom in the Indo-Pacific. If democracies stand united, peace will prevail. If dictators think the Free World is weak, conflict becomes more likely. Europe, America, Japan, Korea, Australia, Canada and NATO allies must make clear: Any attack on Taiwan would have massive economic, technological, financial and strategic consequences. Peace through strength. Deterrence through unity. Freedom through courage.

Trump on Taiwan: When you look at the odds, China is very, very powerful, big country. That's a very small island. Think of it, it's 59 miles away. We're 9500 miles away. That's a little bit of a difficult problem. Taiwan was developed because we had presidents that didn't know what the hell they were doing. They stole our chip industry.

Taiwan didn't steal your chip industry. The modern chip industry became globally distributed primarily because of US business decisions (they chose to outsource manufacturing), government policy, and Taiwanese technological specialisation — not because Taiwan “stole” it.

@ajphelo I was told by a Chinese professor, there is no word of win-win in Chinese dictionary until they learned from western world. Chinese believe there is only two results in a game, you either win or lose. When CCP proposes a win-win deal, be prepared it means CCP wins twice.

TaiwanDreamer|打臉藍白第一品牌@Taiwan_Dreamer

藍白上禮拜將《離島建設條例部分條文修正草案》逕付二讀,好像很少人提及,幫大家整理一下藍白打算幹嘛。 第一,中國人在金門取得土地,以後只需要金門縣政府點頭,不再需要經過內政部核准。第二,離島的電業者可以跟中國電業併網,簽電力網併聯工程與購售電協議,且明文排除電業法與兩岸條例的適用。第三,中資可以投資離島醫療機構,一樣以排除兩岸條例相關限制。總之,這個修法完全排除兩岸條例的限制,然後把決定權交給離島縣政府。土地如此,電力如此,醫療也是如此。 金門從來不缺電,電力供給不是任何一個描述金門處境的報告裡出現過的問題。反而,習近平在2019年提出「新四通」,通橋、通電、通氣、通水,打通金馬與福建的基礎建設連結是中共公開的對台統戰目標。一個依賴對岸供電的前線島嶼,卻要跟境外敵對勢力通電,通過這樣條文的政黨還有立委才真的是「通敵」還有「欠電」。 把核准中國人購置金門不動產的權限,也被從內政部下放到縣政府,這就更有趣了,這法案提案人是陳玉珍,下一步就是要參選金門縣長。這修法不是在促進離島建設,是在為自己將來選上金門縣長後的作為鋪路。 至於醫療特區,表面是引進國際(中國)醫療資源,同時中國病人入境、中資醫療集團進駐、中國醫事人員執業。草案同時排除了《醫療法》「外國人不得擔任董事長」的規定,為中國控制離島醫療資源敞開大門。另外配合最近護病比的修法,就是要從離島開始示範,接著大批引入中國廉價的護理人員,逼迫政府開放到本島。 看了內容,這完全就是為了中國統戰而生的修法,不是促進離島發展,而是以發展離島為名,繞開兩岸條例中的一切限制,將最前線的離島作為統戰示範區。 而且別忘了,前一次藍白要闖關的版本中還有離島自由貿易示範區,簡單說就是可以透過離島幫中國洗產地。這個這次雖然沒有放進來,但接下來誰知道會不會又透過再修正動議起死回生?台灣與美國的關稅談判也持續進行中,川普政府對洗產地問題高度敏感,如果立法院正在審一個允許中國貨進金馬包裝貼標轉運的條例,讓中國透過離島洗產地,難道不會影響台美關係?難道不會影響關稅議題? 這就是藍白的玩法,也是之前跟大家提過的DDos戰術,就是透過一大堆議題去癱瘓大家面對議題的能力。趁大家在防守A的時候,把影響更深遠的B給偷渡過去,這議題值得大家全力回防。
