    After personally speaking to a Taiwanese engineer working for TSMC in AZ, there is a major cultural difference, it shouldn’t be overlooked.

    People forget though, Intel is also expanding their plant in Chandler so this project is competiting for workers from within a diminished work force against a huge competitor. Intel doesn’t need to be told how to pay and run US based capital projects.

    If anything TSMC should be embarrassed they couldn’t successfully forecast a huge capital project to completion. That’s where the lack of competency and blame should be placed.
