Most of the profiteering semicon fabs are owned and run by taiwanese companies.
And almost the whole world's PCs and laptops are designed and manufactured
in Taiwan.
Their economy influence is tremendous...
Thou I agree Taiwan politics is terrible now...
Its especially so becos Taiwan is now "sandwiched" among China, US, Japan.
Much like how singapore was in olden days.
And our media had us believe that is we vote for opposition, we would be like that...
haaa...this is so naive...
Wait, did you vote for pap jus because you actually believe what they said about taiwan???
Wakeup my fren...
But ok, back to taiwan now...
Yes, i hope Chen Shui Bian lose.
I heard he used underhand unethical methods to win votes....
Maybe you can compare them with us and see if there is any 'similarities' or 'differences'...
Taiwan may be good at semicon, but remember that their government are not helping them, its they help themselves one. So kudos to them.

But if their government could help, then more companies in taiwan would prosper.
Btw, the annual GDP report for last year had TAIWAN as the lowest growth. First is, SG, followed by, Korea, followed by HK, followed by Japan, followed by Malaysia, then is Taiwan.
