East Asia Tonight: Trump on Taiwan, US-China chip war, South Korea spying, Chinese caviar 

If taiwan the biggest chip maker dont give america anything.... Then how about Philippines?... 😮

NEXT... The Philippines to pay US for their defence as well.

Trump is indeed a businessman more than a politician 😊 Philippines should take notice.

well europe has not contributed so much in NATO it is always the american tax payers... you guys have to pay up,

What a bunch of lies from this guy !

Trump told Bloomberg he's for TikTok.

Trump is a tough negotiator. His stance is America is done offering free services throughout the world and nation states must pay their fair share. American tax dollars should not support the defense of other countries without seeing fair, financial support as well. Additionally, global trade protection by the U.S. Navy on the High Seas are coming to an end as well.

Well...the USA is a not a charity.......

Trump may have forgotten that Taiwan have big chippies that may require protection.

Is it controversial for the US to pay for another country’s defense? What other country pays for the defense of the US?

In other words he does deals and keeps his word. American debt is 35 trillion dollars. Trump is not erratic, he is a doer, he fixes problems.

'Don't be fools, money makes the world spin. Business as usual, they say.'

S Korea, Japan, Taiwan and ASEAN should be militarily self sufficient same as EU in NATO. USA will support both and it is better for these alliances to be self sufficient than solely rely on the USA.

Most people at these summits are just there for nice hotel stays, food and entertainment. The attendees are just focused on their phones sitting bored.

Fantastic strategy! Insist Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, the Philippines, and the EU to spend more on their militaries like the USA, and to eventually having a humongous budget deficit like the USA too. Meanwhile, the upper 1% in the USA continue to make insane money from steady sales of their super-duper over-priced military weapons. Increase their military spending so much that they, Taiwan, will eventually have rundown infrastructure like in the good-old-US of A.

Coercing other countries to suppress China’s semiconductor industry. Sad for Japan(Tokyo electronics) and Netherlands(ASML)

The cost of China defending Taiwan will be ten time less costly than the cost of US defending Taiwan. For the US defending Taiwan is only in the interest of their financial oligarchy that want to maitain their hegemonic rule of world economy.

Like mafia big brother need to pay protection fee for safe passage

This is a prelude of Ex President Trump foreign policies with the Philippines.

What would happen to USA if Russia, China and Iran have controlled 80% of the world? USA may experienced being sanctioned and isolated for fhe first time. USA will fall.😂😂😂

We should be protecting them for Free for all the high tech chips we use for our National Security Defense Department.

South korea ,Taiwan and philp should pay for US service. Can use land or people to pay for it

One fool out, one fool in.

Why should Taiwan pay for the military support from US when it can be part of China and be a strong Country.

Trump needs to collect money

Just like your classmate(U$A) use his family power coercing the stationary shop(ASML,Japan,..) NOT to sell stationary to you. it is NOT a competition when only one side(U$A) can change rules.

Stop giving our money to everyone,while they build up their standards of living with Americans money and Americans is in decline

Winners Focus on Winning, Losers Focus on Winners

Amazing.

Us can't defend anyone

Homer Simpson or Hulk Hogan for president

When American companies own the majority of the TSMC shares, it'll no longer be a Taiwanese company.

Not many are concerned with US presence in East Asia, maybe the few countries who have misbehaved in the past. Countries with conscience may pay with their Sugar Babes

Trump be like: " I don't know diplomacy but I do know crazy " 😅

Let’s be friends World.

About time that those protected by USA military must pay too for their protection 😊

Can US defend itself without Taiwanese chips..?

To get Taiwan to pay the US for its defence is to require US forces to be stationed in Taiwan, preferably in big numbers. Is that a Trump proposition?

We African never need any protection we only need peace!

Great! Bought more TSMC on the dip.

Good 👍 afternoon, thanks 😊 for this Repport..

Trump’s way is like the godfather, keep your friends close but your enemies closer! 😂 <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="672">11:12</a>

Yes, if Trump becomes president everybody is screwed. 😢

Thank you!

If I am Taiwan.. I don’t pay so what now ?

Taiwan only now discover its backside itchy.

Trump will not play games. He means what he says.

These people trying to predict what our legit President Trump is going to do is full of crap and should shut up

I am glad that you live Europe in peace.

Those caviars are from the seas of vietnam, malaysia and Philippines. 😂

nice! a good news source :)

BEAUTIFUL Beautiful Woman REPORTER EDUCATED BEAUTIFUL WOMAN ❤❤❤❤

My understanding is the so-called TSM plants in the USA are on hold as TSM found it is much more expensive then led to believe and the USA can ‘t produce qualified staff for those facilities. I would like Singapore to provide much more complete and current reporting.

Chips need to be made in America 🇺🇸

Are you able to get baby fish from caviar? :)

ahh! hmmm 🤔!! Trump... hello sir!! please I'm a Filipino! please don't revoke our petition if you win! please...😢 we had waited 20 years now since My sisters applied for that visa!! We love America! we had contributed ,, my sisters, had payed taxes!!😢 May God bless America more n more!!😢😢❤❤

Why you should protect your country and what your freedom means to you think again

This analyst is dead wrong about South Korea''s attitude to US-North Korea negotiations. It is the US mic/ the blob that hated Trump's north korea policy.. In the end, Trump capitulated to Bolton, Pompeo and the neocons.

Nato must think twice before act

Trust US politican ? I trust my dog better

The President Polvoron video is being shown in Vancouver, Canada.

It's King of China XI JIPING He's Greatness right before your very own eyes!

🇵🇭 , 🇹🇼 must pay for USA services, my friend..

Pay is good

Think those 35 Trillions will be generated in USA? That'd be like ten years on minimal wages for even US Bank CEO's.

Stop giving them money

Knowledge is power 😂

This news channel is like a breath of fresh air compared to the insufferable news channel!

Yes we need to watch Chinese spy/spy.

When did they order hot water and when did they order the meal? Why would they drink the tea before unwrapping the meal? Most people serving a meal would unwrap the meal prior to serving the food and tea. Murder suicide makes no sense. Perhaps cctv was on loop during a short time. Hard to know.

One thing is for sure China and Western powers [US] won't let Indo-Pacific countries to unite together without their intervention. Such that if US do turn their backs towards Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, S. Korea et al and abandon these countries on their accords against China's threats. Indo-Pacific countries have no choice but to gravitate together and unite as solid power against foreign threat. Why do you think US, Australia, Canada and France always , made their presence in any Asian summits may it be economic or political. Simple these western powers [US] are stake holders in one way or another in any of these Indo-Pacific countries economy and geopolitical level. That's why China says foul when US form quad that accordingly it is NATO in Asia. This is the exact reason why US won't let Indo-pacific countries to form their own NATO on their own. I just hope that in the near future Indo-Pacific countries would see that united we are actually more equip with all resources. That we can actually flourish and thrive without any of these things from super powers. That is if none of these countries will bully or take advantage each other's weaknesses.😅

The USA and Taiwan should make a good trade deal weapon for computer chips and Technology trades. To meet each other in the middle no country should get anything free

We’re screwed 😂

Caviar looks like frog eggs 😢

Yeah , all countries dependent on USA military must be paying too ..:thats a fair deal :::

I do agree that Taiwan needs to pay for its protection. Without the US bodyguard, there is no independent Taiwan.

No war.Nothing free for Taiwan , where to find money for ????? just can’t make the economy better for the Taiwanese

Where is U$ EU UK economy heading to?? 🤣Ans : Not sure, except not up

Why is there low fertility issues in all the rich countries..Are they really rich and for how long...Asking for Africa..😂

US pushing philippines for proxy war and philippinos still living in their dream😂😂

Great reporting, thanks!

Why didn’t you mention anything about Taiwan is still waiting for the weapons paid for but not delivered since 2017? 19.3 billion dollars mind you. Is this how you do business?

Better for the US to withdraw its military troops and war equipment away from Asia. There is no place in the modern and multipolar world for hegemony and imperialism to go on. The Korean Peninsula will be unified peacefully and the China-Taiwan issue will be settled through diplomacy.

He Can't answer .. Blah , Blah , blah ...

그걸 못맞췄네. 아깝다

1000 BASES TO CLOSE

Pay for services, just like everyone else's, nothing is for free.😂❤

Yup pay the U.S for the troops that’s defending a country

With even a modicum of luck no one will have to suffer Trump's meandering mind again.

Bolton is right when he say you cannot c hitchat North Korea ns to give up their nuclear weapon

Putin s mole is back 😂

EUROPE should pay too

Trump won't be able to do what he wants, he has higher ups to follow😂

Taiwan is next Ukraine

Men in Black in action😅

Republic of China is protecting US's interest, but not US protect Taiwan, Republic of China

Taiwan needs to seriously consider hedging against the unreliability of US support. Unfortunately the options are limited, but something has to be done. Scraping the plan of the 3rd Arizona facility would be a good start.

If the US dares to sell protection assurance, Taiwan would dare and be happy to pay for that protection. 台湾不怕买，只怕对方不敢卖！

While we're talking about fair trade between Taiwan in the United States citizens we will discuss the pain rate of your services at Taiwan we'll pay our services rate pack. He also always back for all the things we did for you and supplied you and you still charged us extreme rates for your services so shut up and pay the price😊

All us pass candidates have tough policies on china ,when come to Taiwan issues, yes us are obligated to defending Taiwan under its law,so call Taiwan relation act, this obvious preposterous to have such as law, since this matter of sovereignty and territorial of integrity, china position ,will not to compromise or back down, at meantime chiba also want good relationship with us,just leave Taiwan alone, everything will be fine
