Chip veteran's comments come as Apple, AMD cheer shift of production to U.S.

PHOENIX, U.S. -- The father of Taiwan's chip industry said geopolitics have drastically changed the situation facing semiconductor makers and warned that "globalization and free trade are almost dead," and unlikely to come back.

Morris Chang, founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., was speaking at an event in Phoenix, Arizona, on Tuesday where the company marked the symbolic first equipment installation at its new plant.

It is TSMC's first advanced chip plant in the U.S. in more than two decades, and Chang said a lot of "hard work" remained to make it a success.

"Twenty-seven years have passed and [the semiconductor industry] witnessed a big change in the world, a big geopolitical situation change in the world," Chang said. "Globalization is almost dead and free trade is almost dead. A lot of people still wish they would come back, but I don't think they will be back."

As chips go, so does the world.

Magats got their extreme nationalism (courtesy of China and Russia, IMO) and are still bitching about "globalism".
