US' Chip War On China: Will China Win Or Lose The Tech Race? | Insight | Full Episode

What many people don't know is that the Western technology blockade on China didn't just start today, and it's not just the semiconductor industry. The semiconductor industry is just the latest line on the list of technology blockades.

It is laughable to read a lot of comments here after 5 months. Huawei 5g smart phones are back with own chips.

75k STEM PhD grads per year.... they gonna bypass everyone within a decade...

It is interesting how Steve Okun (at 29:55) says that China has fused the business and military with respect to technology. For many years, the US military has relied on technology developed by business, and vice versa.

One most important thing to keep in mind is that the country with the deepest history and most wide spread collaboration between military and commercial domainsis the US. The semiconductor, aerospace and telecommunication sectors has always been closely linked with the US military. Much of the technologies has originated from military applications and civilian companies from these sectors still recieve massive contracts from the US military

My biggest issue with all of this is there is no (r very little) acknowledgement of the fact that what the US is doing is in response to China's actions. I mean its like a someone complaining that your sticking up for yourself after decades of being taken advantage of..

The cases of Japan and China in the 80s and 20s are different. China is a new player while Japan's ban gives rise to SK and Taiwan. But now, they're getting more revenues from China than the US. While the US is losing its tech competitiveness by forming the alliance, those allies will lose the Chinese market for the long term if China becomes self-sufficient. And it would be disastrous for those allies if the US economy moves to recession. So he's definitely a China hawk.

The US has already tried with the international space station, and now they are at it again... Trying the same thing over and over again expecting different result = definition of insanity.

Short term pain, long term gain. History just repeat itself. Example: the Space technology, missile, nuclear technology. The semicon is the ultimate pain as this time the sanction including equipment and rope in main equipment makers. China has long learning curve to catch. Skipping the fight from smaller to anotherdisruptive is another option, just like China skip the combustion piston engine which dominated by Japan/German to directly to EV technology.

A very efficient multinational cooperation manufacturing supply chain got rudely disrupted by the US for their selfishness.

How do you win the race? US: steal the other guys shoes... Umm... what?

No one will ask who will win. The only question is how long the US can hold China become the leading chip technology.

Wow so comprehensive... This report Thank you so much .. love to Singapore from USA

What i like about this channel is the unbiasness, great work, we neither Chinese nore Americans wanted unbiased channels

Military and private sector collaboration is common in the US too, it is what sovereign countries do for their own national security and geopolitical interest. The US is reinterpreting the meaning of free trade to preserve its hold as an oppressive world military and economic hegemon.

Amazing work. Really appreciate that❤❤❤

China views the world from a historical perspective. This is not transmittable to the mindset of Western nations, who view the world from a modern perspective. Both are right and both are wrong. Perhaps more creativity, out of the box solutions are needed.

China will certainly lose in the short term but this will force them to make their own chip making machines, by hook or by crook. Going by the past trend, this can only delay the development of China.

The US lecturing about the violation of sovereignty is like a prostitute lecturing about the virtues of abstinence.

Actually do feel happy we finally have an asian super power and not a unipolar world dominated totally by the west. Endless lectures hypocritical foreign policy double standards and 200 years of senseless massacre. But past 50 years somewhat the world finally got along fantastic time to be born is after 1950s a world order was established and excellent luck for us singaporeans and the genius leadership of MR LKY made us a miracle in human history. China also opened up and although got alot of wars by USA after 9/11 the world was some what still ok and overcoming each crises. After the past 2 to 3 years of extreme hardship from the pandemic and horrible geopolitical tensions SG is faced with the biggest crises since independence. Thanks to PAP worldclass leadership we have been able to overcome so many disastrous obstacles from excellent decision making by our govt. But the biggest issue for us in the next 30 years is US and China if they got along its a sweet world but if they seperate or conflict arises then our country will have to make difficult decisions. In the end it's all a political game 2 super powers trying to put us in the middle instead of those 2 listening to what other countries want and need. I am still confident that as long as PAP incharge we can overcome any crises.
