Apple warns suppliers to follow China rules on 'Taiwan' labeling

[greentiger]

TAIPEI -- Apple has asked suppliers to ensure that shipments from Taiwan to China strictly comply with Chinese customs regulations after a recent visit by senior U.S. lawmaker Nancy Pelosi to Taipei stoked fears of rising trade barriers.

Apple told suppliers on Friday that China has started strictly enforcing a long-standing rule that Taiwanese-made parts and components must be labeled as being made either in "Taiwan, China" or "Chinese Taipei," sources familiar with the matter told Nikkei Asia, language that indicates the island is part of China.

Labeling so can have problem exporting out of Taiwan. Not labeling so can have problem importing to China. LL. The only solution is to let China go back to the isolation times and don't do business with China anymore

Why they still buy and use Apple products?

 

[Sexysweet]

China already said will take drastic action if pelosi visit Taiwan. Taiwan can reject pelosi visit like south Korea but didn't choose to.

Then bear the consequences lah. US support is only verbal but when shiit hits the fan, the one clearing it is Taiwan itself.

 

[uselessbum]

If tw semiconductors(ie tsmc) all refuse to label it the way they want, they gonna starve themselves of chips? TSMC not enough capacity to meet demand already, don't sell to china can make space to sell to others.
