The talks, attended by two senior lawmakers each from Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party and Japan's Liberal Democratic Party , took place online, and follow initial consultations in late August.DPP lawmaker Chiu Chih-wei told reporters that chips were not just an issue for Japanese industry, which like the rest of the world has faced semiconductor shortages, but also an issue of security in the face of China.
Japanese officials said they had agreed with the Taiwan side that both they as well as the United States needed to cooperate to build resilient supply chains in areas such as semiconductors.
