Taiwans dominance of the Global Semiconductor industry. It produces over 67 . 90 of higher chip. Economic success has not been felt. Even if the ground.

So he has also got to maintain taiwans competitiveness in the Technology Space and also has to address taiwans Energy Challenges and ageing populations amongst other. Certainly has a lot on his plate on the domestic front. On the international front, plate on the domestic front. On the internationalfront, he does not have to look far. How does not have to look far. How do you see his relationship with china and how do you think he will manage that, considering china is what of its key Trading Partners . In its key Trading Partners . In fact, its key Trading Partners . In fact, beijings reaction to taiwans outcome has been muted. Reduced in the next four years of dpp rule compared to the past eight years of dpps rule. But still i think there is no incentive for either side to increase tensions because this could come at a High Economic cost. At the same time, taiwans is trying to increase its cooperation with the us and it has to continue to toe chinas line. For china, it has to deal with a lot of its domestic issues at the moment. So i think there will be restraint on both sides to maintain peace and also to prevent an escalation of the riskiest. Aha, escalation of the riskiest. A delicate line for william lai to work between china the us as well. What does it mean for other countries .

Donald trump implemented a tariff on chinese goods and that has accelerated the flows of investments and production out of china and that is only increased in recent years as a result of the slowdown in chinas economy and also after covidi9. So that chinas economy and also after covid 19. So that has led to a solution of diverse occur in diversification from china into other parts of asean and into taiwan as well. But despite all that, china is still� s two still china two taiwans biggest trading partner. Even as taiwan wants to reduce its reliance on china and cooperation with the us it has to do so gradually. China still has an abstinence of Manufacturing Industry and supply chain. Supply trade china has launched an anti dumping probe into imports of an important Engineering Chemical from the european union, the us, japan and taiwan. The chemical is used in medical equipment, car parts and even phones. According to Commerce Ministry the investigation could take from six months to a year, and follows similar probes by the eu and us into chinas subsidies for its strategic sectors.
