Taiwan’s Internet Access – Fiber Power, 5G Expansion, and Satellite Horizons

In 2022 Taiwan had about 6.55 million fixed broadband accounts, with 4.12 million (63%) fiber-based and 2.17 million (≈33%) cable modem subscribers, while ADSL subscriptions fell to around 260,000. As of 2024, the median fixed download speed is about 198 Mbps (mean ~137 Mbps), over 45% of fixed accounts enjoy 100–500 Mbps, and gigabit subscribers reached 13.5% by 2022. Taiwan is connected to roughly 10–14 international submarine cables carrying more than 95% of its international data traffic, and the early-2023 Matsu cable cuts underscored the need for backup links. By Q4 2022, three major mobile carriers—Chunghwa Telecom, Far EasTone, and

AI Chip Wars: USA vs China vs Taiwan – Inside the Trillion-Dollar Race to 2030

Introduction The race for dominance in AI chips – the specialized processors that power artificial intelligence – has become a core battleground in technology and geopolitics. In 2025, the United States, China, and Taiwan stand as key players, each with a different role: the U.S. is home to the leading chip designers, China is a massive and ambitious consumer and emerging producer, and Taiwan is the manufacturing epicenter. AI chips are not only critical for flashy applications like generative AI (think ChatGPT or image generators) but also for a wave of smart devices and autonomous machines. As a result, nations

Taiwan Stock Exchange Week Ahead: TAIEX Outlook for Dec. 15–19, 2025 as AI Rally, Central Bank Decision and Micron Earnings Take Center Stage

Taiwan’s stock market heads into the third week of December with momentum still intact—but with more cross-currents than the index’s steady climb might suggest. The Taiwan Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX) ended Friday, Dec. 12 at 28,198.02, extending its third consecutive weekly gain. Taiwan News Yet the path to that close was anything but smooth: the index set a record intraday high of 28,568.02 before a sharp pullback midweek, highlighting how quickly “AI optimism” can turn into profit-taking when positioning is crowded and year-end liquidity thins. Taiwan News With markets closed over the weekend (Dec. 13–14), investors now pivot to
