Why Taiwan’s Economy Is Crushing Korea and Japan in 2025 (While China Says It’s Failing)
Why Taiwan’s Economy Is Crushing Korea and Japan in 2025 (While China Says It’s Failing) | Digging into China In 2025, Taiwan’s economy delivered a stunning performance: per capita GDP hit $40,000 with 8.63% growth — far outpacing Korea, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Yet on mainland Chinese internet, the narrative claims Taiwan is failing, even comparing it unfavorably to Henan. This video explores the real story behind Taiwan’s economic miracle. Facing a critical fork in the 1980s, Taiwan chose two paths: one led businessmen rushing to mainland China for cheap labor, the other saw a small group bet everything on semiconductors. Through the bold vision of 李国鼎, 孙运璿, and 张忠谋’s TSMC, Taiwan built a world-leading chip industry that now powers the global AI boom. While many Taiwanese firms scramble to exit China, TSMC’s advanced foundries keep the island indispensable. The contrast raises sharp questions about timing, strategy, and why the mainland narrative differs so sharply from the numbers. A thought-provoking look at one of Asia’s most unlikely success stories.
