"I have a friend who is visiting Taiwan. He is a retired fab manager. He said the disruption to the fabs is worse than is being reported in the US. He claims they have major problems in the photo and diffusion areas and will require at least a month to get back on line and that would be if they had power, water, etc. I don't understand why diffusion would be such an issue, but the photo area problems make sense.
This is third hand info from another friend who spoke with him so please don't flame, just take it for what it is worth."

"I too have a reporter friend visiting Nantou and Shinchu
downtown areas now. His report was similar, but he is not
a techie, just a report for a Korean news.
I'm so sorry for my Taiwanese friends and their families.
TaiChong is such a beautiful place to live and great place
for techies. I have more friends in Taiwan than my native
country Korea. Wish them best luck!
