Taiwan Campaigns For Chip Investments, Dispels Rumours About Risk

Taiwan President, Tsai Ing-wen has decried “rumours” about the risk of investing in the island’s key semiconductor industry, saying the government was working hard to ensure such investments continued.

This is even as Bloomberg reports on Tuesday, that Apple Inc is preparing to begin sourcing chips for its devices from a plant under construction in Arizona in the United States.

The report further states that the company may also expand its supply of chips from plants in Europe, attributing it to remarks by Chief Executive Officer, Tim Cook at an internal meeting in Germany with local engineering and retail employees.

According to the report, Cook was likely referring to an Arizona factory that will be run by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, the world’s largest contract chipmaker and a major supplier to Apple.

Taiwan, home to the world’s largest contract chipmaker TSMC, plays an outsized role in providing the chips used in everything from cars and smartphones to fighter jets, and is a major supplier to companies like Apple Inc.

But the Chinese military’s menacing of the island to assert Beijing’s sovereignty claims, especially after U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited Taipei in August, is causing the chip industry to rethink the risk over Taiwan.

Meeting Frederic Schneider-Maunoury, chief operations officer of ASML Holding NV, a key equipment supplier to chip companies like TSMC, Tsai praised the European company for its commitment to investing in Taiwan.

“At this moment when the world is paying attention to, and is concerned about Taiwan, I am very grateful to ASML for investing in Taiwan with concrete actions,” Tsai said, according to comments published by the presidential office late on Tuesday.

“I believe that this also discredits rumours of excessive speculation about Taiwan’s risk,” she added.

The chief executive of Taiwan’s largest chip designer MediaTek Inc, Rick Tsai, told Reuters this month that US-China tensions are pushing some manufacturers to talk about expanding part of their supply chain beyond Taiwan, but it’s “incremental.”

ASML dominates the global market for lithography systems, which project light to create the microscopic circuitry on chips. TSMC uses ASML’s EUV machines to manufacture its most advanced chips.

ASML did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the meeting.

Tsai said that investing in Taiwan was “definitely a very correct direction” and the government will continue to provide support.

“I also look forward to Taiwan’s continued deepening of cooperation with democratic allies to build a safer and more resilient global supply chain,” she added.

The presidential office statement cited Schneider-Maunoury as telling Tsai that the company will continue to increase its investments in Taiwan, pointing out they already have five factories and employee more than 4,500 people on the island.
