US senior intelligence officials said that mainland China ’s attack on Taiwan may cause the world’ s largest advanced semiconductor chip manufacturer to discontinue production. In the first few years, the global economy lost up to $ 1 trillion (about S $ 135.9 billion) each year.
According to Reuters on Thursday (May 4), Avril Haines, US National Intelligence Director, made the above assessment when testing by the Senate Military Commission.
She said that the advanced semiconductor chip produced by TSMC was used for 90%of almost all electronic equipment in the world.
If the attacking Taiwan in mainland China prevents TSMC from producing these chips, she believes that this will have a huge impact on global finance, and "in the first few years, it will cause up to 600 billion US dollars to 1 on the basis of the year.The impact of trillions of dollars. "
She also said that if Taiwan is attacked and the production of TSMC's chip production will be blocked, the economy of the United States and China will be affected.
