Chang said China is 5 years behind. The gap is closing on their
competitive edge advantage.

China is not competing with TMSC as they will build their own
magnificent arrays of chips.

The top-notch chip will advantage over TMSC will offer friendly
countries with a competitive supply price.

In US and EU, America would ensure they get the parts replaced or serviced.
Otherwise, the people will no be happy with them.

In US, the authorities can demand replacement. Users can also initiate
class-action on them.

In case in Asia, they would not care anything. Class action not possible on
them. The warranty is also in different ways, too.

Asian people are not them. Asian people cannot bully them. They can bully
Asians. They can belittle Asian as "slant eye" critters.
