How TSMC’s Arizona Chip Plant Seeded a Tiny Taipei in the Desert

Saying "a little Hsinchu" is a bit redundant. :ROFLMAO: Phoenix is definitely going to change but let's hope it is nothing like Hsinchu.

I would think we want a Hsinchu in the US. I would love for the area around TSMC’s AZ fab to receive a census designated name of New Hsinchu, AZ and for the freeways next to the fabs to be named after Morris Chang (Morris Chang Fwy, etc). It wouldn’t hurt to have a CC Wei High School and a Mark Liu Middle School either.

From the New York Times articale:

"Other women said finding work was hard when they spoke limited English and did not have the necessary visas. Instead, several have started their own businesses from home, selling meals and crafts, styling hair or doing nails."

There may have been some miscommunication or misunderstanding on the part of the New York Times reporters. For TSMC employees who are non-US residents or citizens working in the US, they typically use E1, E2, or H1 visas. Their spouses are legally allowed to work or start businesses in the US under US laws.

Phoenix has a long ways to go to be Eastern Friendly. The closest Asian markets are all in South Phoenix. They get their first DTF this coming year says it all. The restaurant they profiled is in a dump strip mall without even a menu. They must be popular because the day we went half the things we tried to order were out. Most of the guest there were ganster types, suspect the install team and not TSMC employees.
