Was Abe's export restrictions on semiconductor materials, parts, and equipment a massive blunder?
Machine translated
During the disastrous administration, Abe imposed export restrictions on materials, parts, and equipment against Korean semiconductor companies, citing Korea-Japan conflicts lol
As time has passed, Korean semiconductor companies still rely heavily on Japanese materials, parts, and equipment, but they have succeeded to some extent in reducing that dependency by replacing them with localized alternatives. If Abe hadn't imposed those export restrictions back then, wouldn't Japan also be enjoying the semiconductor boom of this AI era, just like Korea or Taiwan?
