Taiwan's chip prowess is built on democracy and rule of law, president says

Taiwan President Lai Ching-te said Taiwan’s semiconductor strength is underpinned by democracy and the rule of law, and that Taiwan is a trusted supplier that “keeps its promises” to supply the world. The statement is largely political framing rather than a policy or production update, but it reinforces continuity in the Taiwan-led chip supply chain. Market impact is likely limited unless followed by concrete export, export-control, or production measures.
