[Recommendation] Naoki Kumamoto, Representative Director of the Kyushu–Taiwan Future Institute: A wholehearted endorsement of Hung-Wen Lin and his new platform, TSMCinside

Mr. Hung-Wen Lin’s (林宏文) writings, rooted in Taiwan’s semiconductor industry, offer profound insights into social structures and international relations. With a calm and analytical perspective, he examines the future of Taiwan and Japan—unafraid to deliver sharp critiques when necessary, yet always accompanying them with words of encouragement. This balance of reason and warmth is the hallmark of his work.

He also captures, with great nuance, the resonance between Taiwanese and Japanese values. Mr. Lin’s forthcoming information platform, TSMCInside, is one of the most noteworthy websites for Japanese readers to follow and subscribe to today, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.
