That's why I always thought that it's not only the government's fault that the PH economy is more leading to a consumer-driven economy. Rich people and families in the PH are mostly focused only on real estate, malls, and food manufacturing, while they relied heavily on the remittances and the BPO providing money and jobs to the Filipinos. They just want to invest in the businesses that are easy money for them. Funny enough, most of the oligarchs in the PH are one of the oldest rich families in the region, where some of them came from the time of the Spanish. But somehow, because they are very sheltered and we have the PH's constitution to thank for that, they remained to stagnate and stop innovating because, at the end of the day, the game is only to haul money to their own pockets. That's also the reason why there's a big gap in terms of income inequality in PH because the rich won't like to invest in high-tech industries to create also more highly skilled jobs to have high wages to distribute their wealth.

TSMC modified the purchased EUV and redesigned the reflective structure to increase the reflectivity from 2% to 3% and increase the efficiency by 50%. TSMC's dry EUV mask cleaning technology reduces exposure to dust particles from hundreds to single digits per 10,000 wafers, a 99% reduction in dust ratios.

thats actually the point no? whoever is willing and is able to do it but with lower pay will get the job. its like that anywhere in the world no?

[@nellydomingo4609]

THANKS FOR THE INFORMATION SIR

[@daviduntalan]

umalis ang intel sa pilipinas kasi balasubas ang mga nag trabaho doon, yun ang nabalitaan ko doon. pinag nanakaw daw tapos ibenebenta sa black-market, tapos ang dami pang issue gaya ng bagyo at kung ano ano pa kaya hindi daw bagay para sa operasyon nila kaya lumipat sila sa vietnam.

Among the leading semi conductors manufacturer is the IMI of Ayala Corporation

[@songerph]

Lmao powerhouse?? What a joke. Corporations are leaving PEZA and no one wants to invest anymore.

Well any one who is familiar with chip production located Pulau Penang in Malaysia? I heard they've got factories over there too. Thanks.

PH already produce semicon chips since 80s for us and israel

Im previously work at amkor sukat, as OJT then later work as regular technician, then transferred to laguna

[@olivaramiller2312]

I worked in a semi-conductor company for nine years. Too familiar with process.

Safe, reliable investment for foreign capital in the Philippines. As a longstanding allied nation to silicon producing nations we also ensure supply chain reliability.

[@RacerX1971]

Good job..

[@rexfersky]

If I'm not mistaken, a Filipino was the one or the inventor of a chip for Intel.

[@N192K001]

Very informative! I'm Filipino, and I also didn't know these things. Thanks for the info! Also, the pronunciation of place-names may not be native-level perfect, but it's SO much better than in your channel's other PH-subject videos, even a year ago. So, nice!

[@dinbee4611]

The Philippines had its up and downs on its semiconductor manufacturing industry the past years and I give thanks to Texas Instruments for holding on to its investments here while others like Intel decided to move out to seek a better economic environment. However as I followed the IC scene, its the likes of Samsung, Nvidia or TSMC that's the most coveted investors that the Philippines would hope to entice to invest here, and of course hoping Intel would come back. Although the Philippines semiconductor industry well represents it role in the global market, its not as powerful as the others where they command global control on the rest of the industrial electronic world as they are the powerhouse leaders in this industry raking in billions if not trillions of dollars to their economy.

[@cosmos9227]

Here in Laguna and Cavite there's a lot of factory.

[@albertsubido5609]

Our basic daily wage here in the Philippines is about 10$ a day where 1 kilo of pork is 6$ ..

[@abrahamdsl]

hmm why wasnt Samsung Electro-Mechanics in Calamba Laguna mentioned? They're hear for almost 25 years

[@Rosebie88828]

The yrs that mentioned was during Apo lakay administration

[@NoToYellowpigs]

Nice❤🇵🇭

[@katrine-pearls]

NICE 👍

[@rjs27]

Like Qualcomm, Samsung and intel do this in the Philippines ever since because of heavy production but low salary wages

[@ronaldmatugas1645]

We have Onsemi here in Lapu-Lapu cebu its located at mepza industrial land

[@danilogliponeo]

Yes..

[@DaddyDubs]

With the ideal geological position of the philippines, it has great potential in BPO and shipment capabalities.

[@kaeci.]

Naalala ko years ago yung Algerian friend ko nag sabi sakin yun daw piyesa ng computer na inaayos niya may tatak na Made in the Philippines. Kahit ako di maka paniwala 😆 tas dagdag niya kung mag export daw ng mag export ng ganyan yayaman ang Pilipinas. Limot ko lang kung anong piyesa pero parang yan yun kasi ganyan na ganyan itsura (tulad sa thumbnail)

[@frankcuritana8159]

Texas Instruments has a massive facility in Pampanga

[@LorDTestMe]

so, Philippine assembles and tests the chips for Javelin Missiles? very cool

[@hakhaimo]

Chip Miracle of the Philippines? Dream on Philippines

[@mustachegurl1714]

Someone's jealous

[@hakhaimo]

@@mustachegurl1714 How? Yes, the Philippines has a semiconductor manufacturing sector but compared to neighboring countries, it is a very very very very very very very SMALL in capacity. This video is just exagerating as if the Philippines is a "major" producer of chip manufacturing.

[@dr.denggerous8314]

I used to work "on the job training"at Amkor Anam in Thecno Park Laguna Philippines back in 2003😅
