On the morning of December 10, the Taiwan Affairs Office held a regular press conference. Reporter: Recently, the US Secretary of Commerce said that in the Taiwan-US tariff negotiations, the US side is seeking Taiwan's investment of more than 300 billion US dollars in the US and assisting the US in training semiconductor workers. The ultimate goal is to transfer the entire Taiwanese semiconductor supply chain to the US. In response, netizens on the island criticized the DPP authorities for “not being saved,” and public opinion pointed out that with Lai Qingde's 40 billion dollar arms purchase, the family savings of three generations in Taiwan would be destroyed. What comments does the speaker have on this? Taiwan Affairs Office Spokesman Chen Binhua: In order to “rely on foreign countries to seek independence,” Lai Qingde's administration “didn't talk about kneeling first”, “hitting the left face for the right” in tariff negotiations, and even deceived the public; in terms of industry, the US took the initiative to offer TSMC, and let it drain Taiwan's advantageous industrial value. Earlier, TSMC was forced to announce an investment of 100 billion US dollars in the US and Canada, which has already caused panic and public grievances in the island industry. Once the 300 billion US dollar investment is implemented, it will inevitably have a huge impact on Taiwan's economy, and the development momentum and autonomy of the Taiwanese economy will be further weakened. We are seriously concerned about this. We hope that Taiwanese people and people of insight from all walks of life will unite and act to resolutely oppose the beautiful actions of the Lai Qingde administration and actively safeguard their own interests.
