😅if Singapore depend ONLY on One Industry and One Company like Taiwan. We are FINISHED ! ! ! long time ago. HK depend ONLY on Property and Financial, the Success will be Limited and risky indeed.
Unable to even attract TSMC?? For gods sake please do your homework. In 1999, our govt (Economic Development Board) attracted TSMC and Philips Electronic to form a JV called SSMC. In fact this year is their 25th anniversary! 😂 Also, SSMC is located directly opposite UMC. And not only UMC is adding plants as mentioned by 主播, it is also building their first R&D centre outside of Taiwan. We do not have the supply chain ecosystem as big as China but we have a proven capability to build and run wafer fabs. Industry insiders know how tremendously difficult it is to setup a wafer fab. You not only need a lot of capital but also a lot of expertise to deploy and fine tune the tools and a trained workforce to run it. Some of our test and assembly plants were relocated to China too. China has already been learning from SG many years ago. Overall we benefit from each other.
