This is a compilation of all the previous explanatory videos about the so-called Taiwan emergency or Taiwan war. I chose the title "Taiwan War" because a military invasion of Taiwan by China, a so-called Taiwan emergency, would be a war in the worst case scenario, and there is a real risk that it could become a "Taiwan War." In this situation, Japan has made a major shift in its defense and security policy, including a cabinet decision to possess a so-called "counterattack capability" to attack enemy missile launch sites. The government also plans to increase taxes in order to increase defense spending. The reason things have changed so dramatically in such a short period of time is due to the growing sense of crisis following the Ukraine war, as well as the fact that the risk of war over Taiwan has never been higher. While this shift in defense policy appears to have been coordinated within the government for a long time, it also seems to be moving quite quickly, considering that Japan's past foreign and security policies have taken a long time to move, although this is only in comparison to the past. Also, in Japan, semiconductor manufacturer Lapidus will be established in the summer of 2022, during the same period, and plans have been made to partner with IBM of the United States. Taiwan is home to the world's largest semiconductor manufacturer, TSMC, but not only politics, but also the semiconductor industry, that is, the private sector, is accelerating its response to the geopolitical risk of China's invasion of Taiwan. Where are these movements headed, and how can we avoid war? What are the risks that Japan has turned a blind eye to until now? Although the possibility of them occurring soon is extremely low, I hope this will be an opportunity to calmly think about them. ★Toyoshima Shinsaku's books are being reprinted one after another!
