Taiwan wants to turn Czechia into a base of supplies for a TSMC chip factory in Dresden.

The planned chip factory in Dresden will bring investments into Czechia. A base for companies will be created here, which will take part in the construction and running of the project that will cost 10 billion euros.

Markéta (Pakarová-Adamová, speaker of the parliament and head of TOP 09) supports trade with our allies, her predecessor flew to Moscow to meet his friends.

For context, TOP 09 is one of the many political parties here in the Czech Republic. We have many parties because in our little valley every Indian wants to be a chief. Currently, TOP 09 is a member of the ruling coalition, and Markéta is the speaker of the parliament. Their support is teetering at the threshold of electability. Their predecessors are poised to win the next election.

And Markéta flew to Taiwan several times and the result is a factory in Dresden in Saxony and subcontractors here in the Czech lands. Subcontractor is the economic model of this country. Cheap workforce that makes screws for value added goods made in Germany. The biggest export partner of the Czech Republic is Germany, meanwhile the biggest export partner of Germany is the United States. You see how this works.

And because the wages in the Czech Republic are way lower than in Germany, Amazon.de bases its warehouses here in Czechia, where Czech slaves are working for a pittance. At least I can set Amazon.de to Czech, that’s what I call progress.
