Japan is strategically positioning itself in the global electronics supply chain by attracting Taiwanese chip firms to build semiconductor fabs in the country. TSMC, a major chipmaker, has opened its first fab in Japan, with plans for a second plant. Japan's government is providing substantial subsidies to support this chip-making initiative, aiming to enhance its chip manufacturing capabilities and reduce reliance on the US and China. The move is seen as a response to US-China tensions and aims to bolster Japan's chip industry, leveraging factors like efficient government support and a low-cost workforce.
