In response to the scope of export control of semiconductor manufacturing equipment in the Japanese amendment plan, the China Semiconductor Industry Association issued a statement on Friday (April 28) that the Japanese government's export control measures will bring more to the global semiconductor industry ecology.Great uncertainty.The association opposes this interference in the relationship between global trade liberalization and distorted supply and demand.It is hoped that the Japanese government can adhere to the principles of free trade and not abuse export control measures to damage the cooperative relationship between the semiconductor industry of China and Japan.

The Japanese government announced on March 31 this year to modify the modification of foreign exchange and foreign trade laws. It plans to expand the scope of export control of semiconductor manufacturing equipment, involving 23 types of equipment in six categories.

The China Semiconductor Industry Association issued a statement on the official website that the scope of Japan's control items is too broad, far exceeding the list of international controlling items, which has caused great trouble for related companies.Vague expressions of the control object may affect the mature process supply chain, prevent export control expansion, reduce the number of controlling items, and avoid the interruption of the supply chain.

The statement also said that the control measures will bring great losses to the interests of related Japanese companies, and then lack sufficient profit to support its R & D innovation and technological iteration, weakening the competitiveness of Japanese companies in the international market.

The statement emphasizes that the Sino -Japanese semiconductor industry depends on and promotes each other.China has certain advantages in the fields of raw materials, components, and packaging in upstream, and has rich application scenarios and the largest semiconductor market for semiconductor products. Japan has advantages in semiconductor equipment, materials, specific semiconductor products, and hardware integration.

The Sino -Japanese semiconductor industry has a deep foundation of cooperation. Chinese companies' demand for equipment and materials has continued to grow. At the same time, Japanese semiconductor companies also attach great importance to the Chinese market, and the industry has formed good cooperation and mutual trust relationships.If the Japanese government insists on destroying the good cooperative relationship between the Sino -Japanese semiconductor industry, the China Semiconductor Association will be appointed to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the 900 member units, and call on the Chinese government to take measures to respond decisively.

The China Semiconductor Industry Association calls on the Japanese government to consider the above opinions carefully to help and promote the common development of the Sino -Japanese semiconductor industry.It is hoped that the industry to jointly maintain the marketization of existing global division of labor and jointly maintain the prosperity and stability of the global semiconductor industry chain supply chain.

At the same time, the China Semiconductor Industry Association also called on all relevant enterprises, organizations, and industry colleagues to make a rational voice, reducing the adverse impact of the amendments to the export control regulations on the Sino -Japanese semiconductor industry.
