Taiwan plans to spend NT$70.6 billion (US$2.2 billion) on U.S. weapons next year, confirming recent speculation that it would make big new purchases to signal its commitment to President-elect Donald Trump’s suggestion that it pay more for U.S. “protection”.

I hate that they have to kowtow to Trump, but that is wise of them
Taiwan is one country I have absolutely no problem selling weapons to. They need as big a stick as they can get to maintain independence from China.
Taiwan are just gonna increase the prices for chips and stuff… so they are probably gain more anyway.
Only downside that electronics are definitely going to cost more for the average consumer.
