The new regulations for the Taiwan Economic Minister's Minister of Economy have a little impact on Taiwan

Taiwan Economic Minister Wang Meihua faded the impact of the restrictions on the restrictions of the United States on the economy of Taiwan. At the same time, it urged investors to maintain calmness and believe in TSMC's toughness.

Wang Meihua on Wednesday (October 12) in an interview with Bloomberg News that Taiwanese investors are very panicked because they do not have a good understanding of very complicated regulations.Wang Meihua currently meet with official American officials in Washington and visit the Taiwan image exhibition.

She said that the preliminary assessment of the Taiwan government shows that restrictions on regulations focus on advanced technology, excluding consumer electronics, and the impact on the Taiwan and its chip industries are "minimal."

Wang Meihua said: "At this time, we concluded that the impact would not be too great." However, it is added that government officials need time to study these new regulations in detail.

The US Biden government announced a few days ago that new restrictions on the implementation of chip technology and equipment have led to a plunge in the Taiwan stock market.Earlier this week, after the United States announced tightening the export control of China, TSMC's stock price hit the largest 28 years of decline in 28 years.

Wang Meihua said that before the meeting on Thursday (13th), TSMC will not publish official comments on these regulations.She said that the Ministry of Economic Affairs did not know whether TSMC applied for a license from the US government to continue to sell products.

Wang Meihua said: "According to my opinion, of course, semiconductor is a very key industry in Taiwan. Not only is it related to Taiwan's economic development, but also the security of Taiwan. ThereforeCalling for investors in Taiwan has confidence in the advanced technology of TSMC. "

At the same time, Wang Meihua also warned that the siege of mainland China will affect the East Asian countries including the mainland.And emphasized that Taiwan will prepare for this scene.

She said: "If this kind of behavior appears (blocking Taiwan), Taiwan will not be the only victim. Japan, South Korea and other East Asian countries will even be harmed by China. Our wish isKeep peaceful, but we are still preparing for the current situation. "

Perlis visited Taiwan in early August, which triggered strong dissatisfaction in Beijing, and launched a large -scale" encirclement "military exercise.The situation of the Taiwan Strait has been heating up sharply, which has also exacerbated the tension between China and the United States.

Although Taiwan officials have made their best to ensure that the Taiwan Strait does not have conflicts, Wang Meihua's above remarks show that the Taiwan government seriously treats Taiwan may conflict with mainland China.
