It is just how asian countries works. most of the asian countries has long working hours.

well, they have too, same as malaysia too. Japan, S korea, china, malaysia all has long working hours.

This is the main reason why asian countries can advance so fast.

TSMC is considered high paying jobs already, but the american still feels that it is slave like.

can not image if iphone move production to US, under foxconn.

low pay and long working hours, hmmm

but US wants the iphone production in US, as mentioned by lutnick.

they want the advance job, but TSMC is considered one of the most advance jobs in the industry, but they still complain.

actually this has cause some conflict with with taiwan employee too, coz they are also working in US but they had to work overtime to help other american employee job scope, while the american employee even if they work overtime, most of the time they dont do any productive work, due to being unhappy doing overtime.

depending on industry. F&B, construction, tourism, hospitality are not much effected. This is only in the tech industry or certain country is trying to catch up.

TSMC would not become TSMC of today if not for long working hours, they work around the clock.

even then, TSMC relies heavily on government subsidies. Morris chang was the head of Industrial Technology Research Institute, which is a taiwan government agency, which he put most of the government resources into TSMC, a company he founded.

the factory simply cant run, if not for the taiwan employee there.

the working culture is totally different.

there are complaints from both side, american employee and taiwan employee. American complain that slave like work condition, while the taiwan employee complain about they have to do other people's jobs, namely the american employee job scope, while they are making the same salary.

unless the working culture is change, this is definitely not sustainable.

the worst is keep on sending taiwan workers and the taiwan factory production is effected, which put a heavy blow to the company operation.

munro is quite objective in his critics. Munro actually train quite a lot of china citizen on EV tech during the initial stage. Munro launch workshop classes to teach about EV during the initial stage in US, but no one seems to be interested in EV at that stage, hard to even get 5-10 participant, but china companies engage him to do a workshop classes in china where he can filled up hundreds of participant in a workshop classes. he conducted countless of these classes in china.
