I don't get the impression they own that large a portion of UMC. I don't have the time at the moment to dig through the 10Q, but knowing UMC I doubt it. As I said before I HATE reading those things but found this one interesting.

As for not needing FAB space that wouldn't necessarily be the case. Lots of the Taiwanese FAB houses have allocated a large portion of their lines for the near term. With the shortage of 6" wafer capacity we might be in a short term bind.
