During the recent conclusion of India's general election on June 4, Prime Minister Modi won a third consecutive term, receiving congratulations from Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen and reciprocating the sentiment. Former Taiwan's political affairs counselor in India, Chen Mu-min, recalled the intense media attention and journalist rush to Taiwan after US former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's visit in August 2022, which led to India becoming a hot topic of discussion due to its standoff with China. Chen attributed the warming Taiwan-India relationship to Taiwan's semiconductor industry leadership globally and India's progressive stance on Taiwanese labor. The article discusses various aspects, including the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for Indian labor migration to Taiwan, the collaboration between TSMC and Tata Group to build a semiconductor plant in India, and India's economic growth projections surpassing the UK and soon Germany and Japan. It also touches on India's interest in Taiwan's semiconductor industry prowess, cultural exchanges between the two countries, and the challenges faced by Taiwanese businesses investing in India due to infrastructure limitations and educational disparities.
