The recent conflict happened in the area marked in yellow where IA has salami-sliced since 2003. To the west is the Dongzhang water falls which Indian called it Chumi falls, Both areas are located north of McMahon line.
While all quiet on the western front, China is picking fight on the eastern front. By building hundred of border villages, PLA now has forward positions across east sector of the dispute LAC with India. Dongzhang as an area, where India has been creeping cross LAC since 2001 while China was...
His knows the casualty of Indian side but doesn't know that of China side. Sounds like one of few honest Indians.
Always wondering how Indians flying Chinese casualty numbers around every time after they were routed. Don't they even think?
I do believe there are loopholes in every sanction, and some may have succeeded in exploiting it without getting caught or US government just decided to let go. But knowningly evading sanction is a crime that can be punished by law. Government can come to you anytime if you do. Breaking law...
Any US company, private or otherwise, has to get a licence from US Dept. of Commerce to do business with the companies on the Entity List, therefore, the previously pure business decisions are now in the hand of government, to government's liking. Loopholes are very risky.
What is the point...
Huawei has to give its Kirin chips due to US sanction when it had market domination and in the blink of taking Apple's top position.
We are talking about the crucial tech that Huawei was relying on, not same random assemble phones with other company's chip. No, US companies do not have the...
We are talking about the companies on entity list that US suppliers can't do business with, not some random products. Not sure what point you try to make by bringing Cuban cigar. Or you are telling me US sanction have no effect in the world whatsoever?
No, TSMC never really has this choice if its very own survival is in question, otherwise they wouldn't have stopped supplying to Huawei.
Acturally I understand the reason that USA government has to bag TSMC, it's dirty but necessary. The problem I have is US government has always acussed...
Therefore, US can and will sanction TSMC should it refuse to comply to US demand, which will crip or even render the greatest semiconductor company worthless. That how US disables Huawei, or Alstom of France or entire Japanese semiconductor industries in 90's.
Thus, your original argument that...
You should understand the context of the discussion. If every private companies has to follow scanctions that Government slaps on any competitiors at will, these companies are not free to make independent business decision, rather, they become a tool of the government. In this sense, private...
Should you know chip process more than I do as you worked in Intel before, but what you know about chips has nothing to do if TSMC had "choice Not to move" to US or not. Too bad, all 3 of you did not understand the question in hand. :partay:
Private companies, but do they have to follow the sanctions whenever US government seems fit to slap? Do you know what "entity list" is for? Private or not means nothing when comes to geopolitics.
