Africa Catching Up

When you read about the technical expertise required in the semi conductor industry, you got to ask yourself if Africa can truly catch-up technologically.

Seriously hehe.

Hii kiherehere yote na hujui kupika ugali

First post without Raila bashment

The answer is no, and not just africa. The semiconductor business is a “cartel” where few companies and countries control everything. Countries ni actually China na US pekee

Garbage . US,Japan ,Netherlands and Belgium are the top shotas .Nations that make the machines that make the machines .China will soon join them but it is not there yet .
PS : Belgium does make the machines but plays a very crucial role ni vile sina mood ya kutype

I know what you are saying, read that it is like 2 companies who make those machines. Wakikataa kutengezena of course another company will make them but imagine Tsmc ifunge duka, what will happen?

TSMC is a glorified integration sweatshop. It would not survive a day without US and Dutch machines .Kuna companies kama LAM Research na Applied Materials that are key cogs in the chip making process .

Hizi ni vitu mzee tuambie vile maceleb wanakufa ka inzi siku hizi. Huyu Lisa Presley shida za roho at 54 aje sasa?

It is a controlled market that enables political manipulation through denying or allowing countries to access even the products. Industrial espionage is a solution. China is reaping from the espionage

Educate yourself

Exactly. Germany technology makes the wafers. It’s funny how this guy has no knowledge and he’s probably the most knowledge able in his circle of friends.

I guess case in point about Africa

Please stop embarrassing yourself. If you don’t know something educate yourself

Lol. Apes don’t invest in education or research. There’s no such thing as a cartel. It’s no surprise that all countries with a heritage of scientific advancements play some role in semiconductor industry - no surprise that Germany, Netherlands and Japan play a leading role

Ngurucuki wewe ndio ape pamoja na your uncles, grandfather’s, your dad na whole of your lineage
